I Solemnly Swear that I am Up to No Good -- Cruciatus.

I just wanted to say, that I feel sorry for Cassandra, but I hate seeing people talk about it like it's something special. It isn't something special. It isn't special to her to be made to wait and know she's to be punished and it isn't special for her to be punished either.

I don't even mean that us Mudbloods get punished like that all the time; what I mean is even people like Hydra -- of course I bet Daphne Greengrass has never felt Cruciatus in her whole life but there are other purebloods in the world, and I think it's worse the higher up you get, except Harry because everyone's so protective of him.

But I just mean, this morning everyone was muttering at breakfast about how unfair it was, and maybe it is in comparison to how it could be, but it isn't unfair according to the way things are, because the way things are it's normal and I don't know why people won't admit that. It happens all the time, just not normally to Cassandra Calderwood or in front of the whole school!!

I made Christmas gifts for all the teachers this year. I'd been planning to just have the elves deliver them, but I could deliver Miss Professor Carrow's in person and tell her I'm making a pair for Mr Professor Carrow and I'd like to owl them to him for Christmas Day.

She MIGHT tell me.

I'll need to re-do her socks, though. I think I mentioned I did them in yellow. If I'm going to try this I'll need to make her a really nice pair. AND I'd have to make a really nice pair for Amycus, or it would be awfully suspicious.

So then I'd know the secret. But telling anyone else wouldn't help. Would that be of any use? It might be useful if she DIES. I can't remember how the spell works exactly.

It's worth a try, I guess. Best of luck, and let us know what she says.
