I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up To No Good

Extraction and Diversion - all staff are headed to Bum's office. Clear out and return to common rooms as discreetly as possible.

In part.

But also because we need him.

[alt_evelyn]

Yes.

We do.

[alt_neville]

Yeah, but probably best not to say that around Fred and George. They're pretty good friends with Diggory.

Better if we had ALL come through the night unscathed. Blimey, I hope Diggory will be all right.

[alt_susan]

Me too.

[alt_draco]

I'm not going to withhold my thoughts just because someone might not like them, Longbottom. I've done that for far too long.

I'd prefer that Diggory come through it all right, too. Fact remains that if it came down to it, though, I'd rather him than Harry.

Who knows when any one of us might be put in a position where we have to choose between two unpleasant outcomes.

[alt_ron]

Yeah. That's true. I mean about having to be able to make those sorts of decisions.

And if Diggory really did jump in front of that curse, then he made the same choice you'd have made.

[alt_draco]

Correct.

[alt_neville]

For all I know, they might agree with you about the fate of that plate.

But I just thought I'd drop a friendly caution, as they ARE the ones who turned her into a toad.
