27th January 1972…
Severus has a rather active imagination. You won't believe what he thinks about Lupin. He seems to think he's a werewolf! A werewolf! Like Dumbledore would allow a werewolf to come to Hogwarts. Sometimes Sev does talk rubbish. It's not Lupin's fault his mother has been so sick this year and I'm absolutely positive that it's not always on the full moon. That would be downright insane. Poor Remus. I hope Sev doesn't start spreading rumours about him amongst the Slytherins. That's the last thing the boy would need. I really do hope his mum gets better. It really can't be helping him study. I mean seriously how does he manage it. He's away so much and yet he always gets his homework done and he's rather intelligent too. I see him in the library quite a lot. He's the only marauder I think I can stand. I think it's because he hasn't got Potter and Black's arrogance and he's not repulsive like Pettigrew. If he wasn't friends with the marauders I'd even be willing to spend more time with him.
