Private Message to Draco Malfoy and Seamus Finnigan

[alt_padma]

Malfoy, you know how you were saying a while ago that there's more to Longbum than meets the eye?

Did you read this morning's Prophet?

Finnigan, better watch your back. 'Auror Longbottom' might just decide to use the Cardinal Curses on you if you don't treat him with respect!

Have you ever had any clue he might actually know which way to point a wand? I mean, when you were practising defence, before?

The papers seem to think it's remarkable, anyway.

Finnigan knows what people with the Longbottom name can do, because I told him. So does my Uncle Stephen, and Professor Raz.

Be honest, didn't you start to wonder back when he wrote to Scrimgeour?

Mr Rosier says you should never take what newspapers say too seriously.

I've never seen Longbottom look like anything but a prat. When we were practising together I suppose he looked like less of an idiot than he usually does, but its not as if he was especially good.
