Draco C. Malfoy

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.
