Well I'm not dead!

[alt_hermione]

I'm  not dead and I'm okay and everything is okay, except that I have to recopy  all of the Pretiosissimum Donum Dei again, and I have to wear a little amulet that tells people where I am in the castle all the time. Which isn't so bad, really, not at all. 

I'll tell you more things about it later, Terry.

Anyhow yesterday Harry Marvolo spilled ink on the Pretiosissimum Donum Dei and I was so upset because it was alot of ink and it got all over and the book was ruined and so I went and I was crying in the loo and then the troll came and tried to kill me and Harry Marvolo and Ron and Neville and Draco Malfoy came and saved me. And then Professor McGonagall and Mr Lupin came and were very angry, and this lady named Rita Skeeter, and she wrote an article in the Daily Prophet that says I tried to lure Harry Marvolo into going after the troll but I never did. 

So I went and Professor McGonagall shut me up in my cubby which she does sometimes when I've been bad, but it isn't so bad now, and she left me a light because she said that it wasn't at all clear that I was at fault. And then she came and let me out and told me that I had to wear the amulet but that the Lord Protector wasn't very angry with me but that things were going to be very bad in the newspapers.

Anyway, thank you, Harry Marvolo and Draco Malfoy and Neville and Ron. I'm glad that I have friends people around me who care about whether a troll eats me even if I am a Mudblood.

M'all right. Not a scratch on me.

[alt_pansy]

You're very lucky. And very stupid.

I was kind of worried about you.

[alt_ron]

Seemed a good idea at the time. Sides, it would have killed her if we hadn't.

[alt_pansy]

Yes, it would have.

[alt_ron]

Were you really worr-

Just waiting for the Howler now.

[alt_pansy]

Your mum was really scared. She actually asked me if I knew where you were.

Hey, look at it this way: at least when you get the Howler it won't have breath smelling like Firewhiskey.

It's important to look on the bright side.

[alt_ron]

I didn't see that one just her haring after Percy over where I was.

I'll take that bright side and hope she doesn't find a way to make it hit me round the head after its done with the screaming.

[alt_pansy]

Parents hit. I hope the Howler doesn't. It's nice to get a break from all that, isn't it?

[alt_ron]

Mum and Dad don't - not like that. Might threaten it and yell alot but nothing like real hitting.

Imagine it would be though. For...for you.

[alt_pansy]

You get used to it.

I'm thinking of tellng Dennis to go find a container for my joy. We hope that will keep him busy. He's like a living gargoyle, waiting, watching so he can LEAP into action.

It's a peach.

[alt_ron]

Sorry you had to. Have to.

That would be a bit creepy, someone lurking around like that but. he doesnt know any better.

[alt_pansy]

Maybe we can get him to go find the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Might take him a while.

[alt_ron]

But it's November? Where's he goin to find a rainbow in november?

[alt_pansy]

That could put a wrinkle in the parchment, yes.

There would be rainbows in the rain forest.

[alt_sally_anne]

I'm going to call you Troll Killer Weasley instead of Carrot Head from now on.

[alt_ron]

Reckon I can handle that.
