You have no idea how lucky you are to get along for the most part with your dormmates. Although who knows; maybe the Protectorate'll try to set you at each other's throats when you're studying for NEWTs, too.
I don't have time for this. I finally blew up at all three of them, saying 'Dammit, you lot, act like civilised beings, would you?' Surprised Seamus and Dean and even Ron, because I'm generally the peacemaker, but the latest skirmish was just the last straw.
So I told them: there will be no more fighting in this dormitory. Period. I looked up a klaxon charm that responds to ANY magic cast in the room aside from Lumos and Nox. I'm the only one who knows the warding and disarming spells. I take it off in the morning when I wake up, so the rest of them can open up their blood-warded trunks and do whatever dressing spells they use. I put it back on when I go to bed at night, so they'd better have what they've needed from their trunks and locked them again by then. I even made Nearly Headless Nick promise to go get Hooch and maybe Milland and the Headmistress, if necessary, as soon as the alarm ward goes off. So there will be NO more ambushes. PERIOD.
(Now I know what you mean when you're always going on about 'Boys.')
