It did! We were discussing books, and got to talking so long we went past curfew, which is why he had to walk me back. He really listens, doesn't he? I found it quite a bit more like a conversation than an interview. And a very pleasant conversation at that.

I told him about Regulus, and Mrs Professor Carrow, and he seems to think that the practical course isn't necessarily out of my reach -- that I could give it a try and see if it'd work. And I'm certainly willing to give it a chance. And I'm not surprised at all that he thought so highly of you.

Sally-Anne and I have thoroughly devoured the book already, and found it all sorts of amusing. We read the best parts out loud, or at least we tried. It's so very over the top, isn't it? And besides, I can think of far less complicated ways to have a bit of fun.
