I suppose it could be a good thing. It's been hard to stop thinking about the sounds it made, but you're right about Crab and Boil. I'm a terrible bluffer, though, so I'll have to work on that. You remember, I only had one half-eyebrow left after the most recent game of Exploding Snap. No fear about the sixth-years. They already shave, for goodness sakes.

And you know I can't let Malfoy or Marvolo know. It'll get me trounced even worse, that's the way it works with boys. I don't know about girls, but if you're a tattletale, you're pretty much dead.

I knew talking to you was the right thing. Mum says hello and congratulations, by the way, and says to say hello to your mum.
