I guess he really doesn't have anything else to do now that Lestrange and Marvolo are together.

Listen, Blaise and I got to chatting after this afternoon's revision session and I thought you might like to start revising Defence as well. Since it relates closely to Noble Arts, you know?

Anyway. We're going to start meeting on Wednesdays instead of History Club and if you want to come, you'd be welcome. We might even invite one or two other people--select people, I mean, not just anyone--to use one of the empty classrooms up on the 4^th floor when it's useful to practise.

Finch-Fletchley, if you come, could you bring that book you mentioned this afternoon? The one about spells that activate over long distances.

Also, Finch-Fletchley, has Macmillan gone completely mental? All through Charms he was positively staring at Jones. He cannot be serious. Tell me he was watching her because he was wondering what she's doing back here this year and not for the reason it looked like.

Seamus, I've got the magazine you wanted to read. I'll give it to you at lunch, all right?

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?
