A.N. — In preparation for one day writing Mundugus Fletcher's drabble, here is a student following happily in his greasy footsteps. He even has a name suited to his unseemly deeds. I'd put a warning here that I do not condone the activites taking place, but sometimes kids need to be stupid and learn lessons the hard way.

74. Harold Dingle

With the dramatic departure of the Weasley twins, somebody had to step up to fill part of the void they left behind. Harold Dingle was pants at pranks, but he could carry on their contraband smuggling just fine.

With O.W.L.s upcoming, Harold's first idea was study remedies. But Granger shut that down right quick, and it put him in a surly mood. Firewhisky took the edge off of that, and also gave him his next idea.

Turns out Gryffindors were quite thirsty for illicit alcohol with their providers absent. Harold was happy to share his stash — for a price, naturally.
