The owls soon began to fly back and forth to Grimmauld Place several times a day.
Potter,
You could have been in Slytherin and you chose Gryffindor? I suppose that's my fault.
Malfoy
Malfoy,
Don't blame yourself for everything. My parents were both Gryffindors you know.
Potter
Harry,
I don't think Snape was quite as mean as he comes across in these books. Is this what you
told that witch? He was just strict that's all.
Hermione
Hermione,
I think I remember things differently. I recall Snape making you cry at least once a year.
Harry
Mate,
You best be careful next time you come over. We never did tell Mione we were the ones that
locked the troll in the lav with her and she's right ticked.
Ron
Ron,
Thanks for the warning.
Harry
Potter,
I still think it's hilarious that you swallowed that Snitch but I suppose even I have to admit you
did some impressive flying that day.
Malfoy
Malfoy,
Was that a compliment, from you? Do I need to come check your temperature again?
Potter
Harry,
I always thought you stayed when we found the unicorn because you were massively brave. I
feel better knowing you were so scared you couldn't move.
Draco
Draco,
Really you couldn't see that I was terrified?
Harry
Harry,
We did not try to send you a toilet seat! We only sent one home to Ginny.
George (and Fred)
George and Fred,
That was not me, that was the author. Though it would have been pretty funny. Pomfrey would have been hysterical at the thought.
Harry
H
Dobby? Dobby my house elf tried to stop you from coming back?
D
D,
You really had no idea. I figured you sent him to keep me from coming back and forbid him from telling me.
H
Harry,
I'd forgotten just how much fun that flying car of Dad's was.
George
Harry,
Oh really you had to tell her about that horrid Death Day party.
Hermione
Potter
YOU?! You and the Weasel polyjuiced into my best friends and I didn't even notice, though as
bright as Weasley always seemed that really shouldn't be a surprise. No
wonder Granger always beat me out for the best scores.
Malfoy
Malfoy,
It was pretty hysterical. I can't believe you didn't notice when we started to change back. Just a little to stuck on yourself were you?
Potter
Harry,
You and Ron brought Lockhart to try and save me? What were you two thinking?
Ginny
Gin,
It was the only way to get down there, trust me we wouldn't have let him try a thing.
Harry
H
I can't stop laughing that you tricked my father into freeing Dobby. He claimed he'd had enough
of the blasted elf and freed him to be rid of him.
D
H
You blew up your aunt and got away with it? Must be nice being the Chosen One. That was two years in a row they thought you did magic outside of school, and you all thought I got away with too much.
D
Harry,
I wish I could have been with you at the Leaky for a week with no brothers around.
Ron
Ron,
That would have been great. Maybe we should escape somewhere for a long weekend vacation.
Harry
Harry,
You spent a week by yourself in Diagon Alley and didn't pull any pranks? We taught you better
than that.
G (&F)
G & F,
No one was there who do you think I would have pranked?
H
Harry,
I still have nightmares about those Monster books.
Neville
Nev,
Me too.
H
H
I have to tell you I may have complained endlessly about Lupin because I was supposed to as a
Slytherin but he was one of my all time favorite teachers. I think several of my Housemates
would say the same. We learned a lot from him. I was glad I didn't have to face that boggart
though. I'm sure my father would have appeared and I don't even want to think about what he
would have said when he found out.
D
H
I really was a prat about my arm and that creature wasn't I? Though I got loads of attention from the other Slytherins about it, probably part of the reason I kept it up, well that and the fact that I was an arse.
D
D,
Yeah you were lapping up the attention. Loved to be the center of attention didn't you. Don't know why I hated it, still do.
H
H
A MAP? You had a blasted MAP? That's how you were always able to follow me?
D
D,
I'm trying not to hurt myself laughing. Yes I had a map, did you think I was just that good at finding you or did you think I was a stalker? Wait don't answer that.
H
Harry,
We are quite happy with how you scared Ron at Honeydukes. Too bad you couldn't scare a few more people while you were at it
George and Fred
George and Fred,
That really was a wasted opportunity wasn't it. Well if I could do it again I'd scare several more people, maybe even the two of you.
H
H
Only you would get one of the best brooms available from a secret admirer.
D
D,
Yeah for all the good it did me. I got to look at it then you see it was taken away. I'm just glad I got it back before the big match.
H
Harry,
I'd forgotten just how much Trelawny annoyed me until reading this book. I'm so glad I dropped that ridiculous class.
Hermione
Harry,
I have never been more mortified in my life than when everyone found out I had to keep a list of passwords.
Neville
H
Oh I'd forgotten about those mud balls you threw at me. I owe you for that one especially since you got away scot free.
D
D
Oh I'm so scared.
H
H
A smack across the face? That was no smack, she hauled off and punched me. What you didn't want to make her look bad? Or you just didn't want to get on her bad side yourself, because that I understand. I swear I can still feel it in my cheek just reading that.
D
Harry
Oh come on the one time I really let Malfoy have it and they changed it to smacked him? UGH
Hermione
Mate,
You might want to watch out next time, Hermione is right wound up over the stupid book saying she just smacked Malfoy. Why is it women get so worked up over such a little thing? And why am I asking you?
Ron
H,
Your father and his friends managed to become Animagi secretly. I can't believe I'm about to say this but your dad was COOL! And with that kind of sneakiness he could have been a Slytherin.
D
Granger,
You attacked a teacher? You Granger attacked a teacher? And Snape of all of the teachers who already didn't like Gryffindors, and I think I see why now. Potter and Weasley were clearly a bad influence on you.
Malfoy
Malfoy,
I rather think they were a good influence on me, but yes I attacked a teacher and suffered quite a bit of guilt over it later. I wanted to apologize to Professor Snape but I was sure that would only make things worse.
Granger-Weasley
H,
Have you ever thought about the fact that if you had let Lupin and Black kill Pettigrew like they wanted then it would have been much longer before He came back, maybe never even.
D
D,
I couldn't have let them kill him. Besides if they had there would have been no way prove Sirius's innocence. And don't kid yourself he still would have found a way to come back.
H
Granger,
You had a time turner. I had no idea that was an option or I would have taken more classes myself.
Malfoy
Malfoy,
You really think they would have let you have a time turner? Well Snape might have I suppose.
Granger-Weasley
H
You saved that hippogriff? Why am I not surprised?
D
D
You planning on doing something about it now? You might want to rethink that.
H
H
A fully corporeal patronus third year? When real dementors were after you. I can't decide if you're that good or just lucky.
D
D
Jealous?
H
H
Snape really was on to you, you're lucky Dumbledore was there or you might have ended up hexed.
D
H
Even Dumbledore thought Trelawny was nutters huh? Why did he keep her around?
D
D
Well she was but he had his reasons you'll see.
H
H
Merlin's beard I love that you used Sirius against your beastly uncle. You really should have been a Slytherin.
D
A/N wow 13 follows on the first chapter alone, I only wish I had more time to read and take notes to turn into owl post, hope this was clear enough to read. I'm working my way through GoF but it may take a bit. Enjoy and as always reviews are welcomed and appreciated.
