Yes, I've read it. So everyone can stop asking me or hinting about it, all right?

No, I'm not going to tell you how I 'feel about my mum' now. I don't owe anybody any explanations. And anyway, I don't have a mum. I just have my Gran.

I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up to No Good

Parkinson...blimey. I just don't know what to say. If you We could You know I don't

Guess I'll see you in Charms today. Maybe I'll think of something to say by then.

It's a tough thing for both of you, right enough.

Our brother Bill works in the department of Wizarding Communication, and he sometimes talk to us about his job and about how it involves public relations. Maybe that's what you both need right now.

Nev's in the worse position here, really, because...well, it's obvious, isn't it? But you're the one who can help him the most, Parkinson. If you are seen to be talking to him, as friendly as ever, then others will follow your lead.

His mum wasn't the one that actually

And you're right of course you're right. I am just not feeling very friendly right now.

That came out all wrong.

I hate this.

It's not your fault, Longbotom, and I do know that. It's not even really your mum's fault.
