Private Message to Daphne Greengrass

Hey Daphs,

You spent some time practising the play with Ginny Weasley, didn't you? She was your understudy, if I recall.

What sort of person is she, then?

Interesting. And yes, we all saw that. The blow-up, I mean.

I didn't notice what Mr Crouch wrote about you, but I wouldn't take it too hard. Everyone else thought you were fantastic, even my Mother. You can write him an apology if you'd like to, but somehow I doubt that it'd have much of an effect...except maybe he'd say something nasty in response. Seems you might like that, though.

I don't like nastiness at all, but it does have the peculiar effect of making some men seem more dashing. Just some men, mind. It certainly doesn't do anything for Ron Weasley! Or Zacharias Smith.

This isn't about you fancying Ginny Weasley, is it? Because I doubt you'd have to work terribly hard to get a girl's attention, especially one younger and in a house like Gryffindor. You're the only Malfoy in the school, last I checked.

[alt_draco]

Smith? What's he got to do with anything?

You and Blaise, I swear. No, I don't fancy her, and I already know I wouldn't have to work hard to get most a girl's attention.

Well fine, be secretive! I'm going to become even closer friends with Ginny and then I'll find out what you're up to in the end, anyway.

[alt_draco]

I'd expect nothing less.
