George,

Thanks for the Daydream Charms, I can't believe you listened to my rant about reading. You tend to get this spacey look on your face anytime I start to talk. Come to think of it, most everyone done… By the way, I am blaming you for the number of pranks going on at Hogwarts. If you hadn't opened a joke shop with an owl order business (honestly, did you do that just to annoy us Prefects?) then we wouldn't be having to worry about dungbombs any time we walked down the corridors. By the way, do you know of anything that can negate the smell of dungbombs?

What Ron did was tick me off. He was rude to me for no reason, and then he started to mock me in class. He even accused me of being a rotten friend to him and Harry. Quite frankly, I've had it with him. I would like something that would embarrass him, but not in front of everyone, the common room would be nice. Honestly, I'm open to most anything. I'll let you figure out the finer points, just tell me what to do.

I most definitely did send a flock of birds at him. I was talking with Harry, minding my own business when Ron came running into the room with Lavender Brown. He sneered at me and made a snide comment, I got pushed past the breaking point. I had learned a new charm from Flitwick, which he would have known how to repel if he had been paying attention, and I sent them at him. I hate to admit it, but I actually had fun doing it. Plus, his face was great, I wish I did have pictures.

So, what are you doing with all your free time? Inventing new pranks? Dear God, I hope not, I'm having a heck of a time fighting your pranks as is. Do you realize there is no way to defuse a whizbang? Seriously, you and Fred did a brilliant job of making them. They're extremely resilient. I've tried everything I can think of, and believe me, that's quite a lot!

Sadly, I have to go. Try not to cause too much trouble here please.

Thanks again,

Hermione (I could list my good qualities, but there's not enough parchment here.)

Ps. Really? You won't tell? You are just mean.

Pps. What makes you think I didn't write the letter in code? You may have just not been able to decipher it.

Ppps. Of course Ron stuck his foot in his mouth, he's never taken it out to begin with.
