Hermione Jane Granger

I Solemnly Swear that I am Up to No Good.

Fred, George, I think I found the spell that you need to bring more people in on this!!!

Last night someone left out a book in the Slytherin common room and it talks about the spell Obliviate. How didn't we think of that?! It makes so much sense. I mean if someone does find out, and they aren't trustworthy, you could Obliviate them! I think I must not have thought of it because it seems like something only Aurors can do, but this was just in a NEWT-level Charms textbook, and I think that George could probably do it, he's better at Charms isn't he?

It would be so good to have other people to talk to too!

I'm doing all right. I thought you should know. I didn't respond to Mr Weasley because I didn't know what to say.

I feel a bit like I'm in a fog, or like it hasn't sunk in yet, and I don't know when it will. It doesn't seem right to just write about what is happening in my days. It feels like I should be mourning. Or something. Only they aren't dead. Just werewolfed.

I don't know. Sorry.

I Solemnly Swear that I am Up To No Good

I'm all right Terry!! I really am! It looked awfully hairy there for awhile, but I am all right, and Professor McGonagall's in charge of me, and she's being quite nice, although I suppose she isn't supposed to be so you'd better not tell anybody, she's giving me enough food and a place to sleep and everything even if it is in the dungeons. You see she put me in a cell, only she Transfigured the things in it so they were nicer, and she told me the Transfiguration would wear off by morning, but I'd be asleep by then and I would'n't notice the bed going hard - which is alright - and then if someone came to see me who wasn't her, they wouldn't know I hadn't had such an awful night of it after all.

But oh I think I may have gotten myself in real trouble this time. Only what else was I supposed to do? Macnair was threatening Harry - I couldn't just let him go - and I didn't know Professor McGonagall would be able to get out in time - so you see I stunned him! And now they do know that I can stun people! And that I can use a wand! I don't believe they know how I learned or even care, Professor McGonagall said she'd take care of it didn't ask, but -

Oh, I am just so glad to be alive, for a moment or two I wasn't sure I would be. And then I thought that Draco was going to die, only he was just knocked out, and then I thought Harry was really going to die, and I still think Macnair might've killed him, after all he had gone that far...

Today my word is  "albescent" because the cover of the book is now opposite of that! (Albescent means turning white.)

I think I managed to save it though I won't really know until everything is all dry.

The copying is going faster this time than it did last time.

I'm not really in trouble although it is taking some getting used to that now Professor McGonagall can find me whenever she wants. The charm works so well that she found me in the library stacks today! I thought it would just give her a room but it is very specific.

Everything is much better now that I don't have to be scrubbing floors! I have never been happier to get glue all over myself.

And when I came back to my cubby things were just lovely, and there was a new quill and parchment there. So now I can take notes, real notes, and not just on a chalkboard or on the backs of old papers. And new clothes! Of course Hogwarts gives me some but these ones are pretty, there's even a pair of dress robes with lace on!!

I fell asleep in the soapsuds today because last night I couldn't sleep even with Crookshanks there. It was really cold out in the hall.
