Lovegood, do us Prefects a favour: the next time you end up with a completely inappropriate book in lieu of the proper text, discuss the unfortunate mishap in private with the Professor. I've just had to confiscate a copy of Intra Profundis (the wrong one) from a Firstie. He (and you're lucky I'm not naming names, you-know-who) had the bright idea to tuck the book into his Charms text as a disguise, but it actually ended up being a dead giveaway. When one is reading Charms in the common room, they don't usually have three or four of their mates crowded around, trying to elbow their way in for a closer look. Meanwhile, I've handed the book over to Pennifold; she'll see that it ends up where it ought.

While I'm at it, a few of you need to embrace a little thing called the double entendre. And I don't just mean Firsties.

All that said, Dark Arts is going to be brilliant this year. Loads more work all around for most of us, but work of a welcome sort. Thank you for meeting with us individually to consider the various curriculum options, Professor Dolohov.

Re: Private Message to Draco Malfoy

Are you going to date a halfblood now to get a taste of it? Of control, I mean - not the halfblood. You know, my Father once advised me to date halfbloods because there would be no-strings-attached and she would have no silly delusions of marrying me one day. I can't say the idea ever appealed to me, though. With such different backgrounds, what would there be to talk about without creating a good deal of awkwardness? There'd be nothing left to do, except -

Yes, I suppose there is that, isn't there?

Fluttering soul sounds like a mental condition, it does. And honestly, this sort of tripe's been written about millions of times, even in the letters column of the skin mags. This one's only popular because it has him doing full body binds on her and spanking her with his wand and whatnot, and everyone's well shocked that a woman author's being so saucy.

I wouldn't rule out that sort of thing. I quite see the wisdom in your father's suggestion. (And I rather doubt he had in mind that you'd be expecting a debating partner or someone to make small talk with.)

But I don't think any of the halfbloods here are likely. Not yet, at any rate. I think that sort of thing makes more sense after leaving school. When we're not all eating in the same hall for every meal.

Yes, I expect you're right about the author. If she'd been called Randy Reville, it wouldn't have caught nearly so many people's attention.
