Private Message to Parkinson and Zabini

[alt_padma]

I thought it might be useful to do a little strategising ahead of Saturday.

I'm looking forward to working with you both. I'm not worried about Su Li, she's actually really clever and pretty well-rounded. Bundy will be fine, too, don't you think? Depends on what we've got to do. MacMillan's strength is in keeping people together, at least from what I've seen, so maybe he'll do best at the sorts of challenges that require loads of coordination.

What about the third-years? Is there anyone we should definitely try to get early in the draft? Oh, and Zabini, do you want Mlle Durand on our team, or not on our team? Because I figure Draco will put his cousins on his team, and then Hydra will likely want Finch-Fletchley. And we have to have at least one each of Beauxbatons and Durmstrang, right?

So let me know what you two think and maybe we can all meet as a team, the six of us, before Saturday?

Good show, Patil. Organising things.

Yes, Durand would be an asset, for certain. And thanks for asking. I shouldn't worry about losing Finch-Fletchley to Draco's lot: I don't think he's all that, if you know what I mean. They can have him. Especially if they have Hydra, as well. Of course, that team will have as much distraction as it can manage already. Can you imagine three less compatible people than Weasley, Finnigan and Draco? Glad not to be in the middle of that mess.

I know, right? Poor Seamus. And Draco.

Sorry, Parkinson. But you've got to admit, it's true. Weasley's a menace and he's anything but organised. Draco must be going mad, trying to figure out how to keep him out of trouble and still win.

That's not quite the way I'd put it, but you're right that they aren't the best of friends.
