( All About Andrew )

Private

Mum's having a girl. I'm going to have a little sister. It doesn't sound as bad as having a little brother. Still, it'll be bloody well off. And I'm still not going to live with them. I'll get a room at the Hog's Head.

Emily

Want to take a walk later?

So I've got Divination homework to do. I'm rather sick of imagining horrible deaths for myself I'll have to figure out if I can be creative this late in the year.

Private

Bastards. Those bloody bastards.

Emily

I just heard. Are you - what can I do?

Yue

Are you - I know you're not alright, but are okay?

Private

Shit. Shit shit shit. What do I say? I told her it'd be okay. Shit.

Emily

Is Was
Are you okay? What happened?

G6 minus Emily

Did you see the paper? Emily's mum's been killed by Snatchers. Emily and Wayne are in 'custody' or some shit.

Has anyone heard from her?

ETA:
Wayne Hopkins' Roommates

Have you heard from Wayne at all? Are he and Emily okay?

Emily

Want to take a walk later?

Heath (added later)

I have to ask you something.

Well, yesterday was interesting. I think I can go the rest of my life without another Friday the 13th.

Declan

What the hell were you thinking?

G6 Boys

So, last week I told Emily I fancied her.

Private

So a Gryffindor bloke should have enough bollocks to confess to the girl he fancies, shouldn't he? If one more person says I'm scared, I might throttle them. But I am Buggering hell. It seems pointless if she fancies someone else though.

Anybody know what happened today after lunch? I saw Prof. Carrow and he looked like he'd seen an unexpected and particularly gruesome ghost.

All blokes, 5th year and up

Girls are utterly barmy. Does anyone that doesn't have tits actually understand them?

Hypocrites. The whole bloody lot of you who are all up in arms about the recent punishments are hypocrites. Why? Because after saying that hurting someone else is wrong, you turn around and joke about murdering someone.

Here's a fact - joking about murder isn't funny. If one of the IS did it, you'd be furious. So try actually following the morals you say you follow.

Edited to add: All right, so it's not the whole lot of you, but those who are doing both need to stop.

Private

Those voices last night - one of them sounded familiar. I can't quite place it, though. Don't think I'd tell if I did Bugger, it's going to annoy me until I figure it out.

IS

Ran into a few students out of bound last night. I can't say if they were that bloody DA or not because it was dark and they used an Obscurus on me and Confundus on Astoria.

Astoria

How are you feeling?

Is it summer yet?

Private

Who the hell would send me chocolates with a HATE potion? Isn't there enough hate at this damn school?

And I bet Wendy hates me now. Unless Heath was right and she does - did? - fancy me. Bollocks. It doesn't matter. Now everyone will hate me.

Can this year get any worse?

And shite. What am I going to do about Beery's detention? He should know better than to try to hit a member of the IS, but I can't really blame him.

Wendy

I'm really sorry. Honestly. I don't know who left me those chocolates, but they had hate potion in them. You can ask Slughorn if you don't believe me. I don't really think any of that about you.

Beery

Maybe before you haul off and hit someone next time you should think about the consequences of your actions. That being said, if I could dismiss the detention, I would, but I can't since Slughorn gave it to you.

I'd like to publicly apologize to Wendy Pips for the awful awful things I said about and to her. And to everyone else, too. Someone sent me chocolates with a hate potion in them which I don't understand and yeah, I guess they worked.

Wendy doesn't whinge and she's a real brill girl, so yeah. I'm really sorry.



OOC: Any comments made on his last entry will be responded to as if he's still under the influence of the chocolates. So if you want in, go for it!

Have you all ever actually had to listen to some of the younger years prattle on? It's bloody annoying. Some are alright, but there's one fifth year Gryffindor who I just can't bloody well stand lately. She's constantly whinging and crying and wanting hugs. Honestly, she's supposed to fifteen, not two.

Just for the record, if all you're going to do is whinge and complain all the time, I don't want to hear it. Especially when you don't know shite about anything outside your own perfect little life and think one thing going wrong is the end of the world. Guaranteed there's someone out there whose life has been bollocksed up more than yours.

A piece of advice: life is usually shite. Get used to it.




OOC: we're going to pretend that Andrew got his dose a bit later than Julian. Sorry all. And if I got anything wonky, please let me know. I'm a bit vague on how this potion works.

When I'm out of school, I'm moving to Bermuda. I don't think they get rain like this there.

Private

Mum owled again. She's pregnant. PREGNANT. I didn't think she could even get pregnant anymore. What the hell am I going to tell her when I write back? It's mad, utterly mad. And I'll be damned if I'm sleeping in the same house as a baby because I won't get any sleep and she'll use me for babysitting. Free labor. Thanks, Mum, but no. I'm not doing that. I've got to see if I can get a job this summer so I won't have to go back once the kid's here. And if I can manage it, I'll see if I can let a room someplace. I don't want to live with them and their perfect new family either.

At the risk of jinxing things, it'd bloody well quiet around here. Finally. Maybe my fellow Gryffindors have finally figured out that sassing the people in charge is a bad idea. I mean, there are ways to fight back without putting yourself in danger.

G6

I miss sitting with you all at meals. Anything happening?

So it seems I'm going to be a big brother.

Private

Seriously? Seriously? How am I supposed to keep everyone out of trouble if they go breaking into the professors offices?

Why do I even bother anymore?

Seamus

What the bloody hell were you thinking? Not that you can reply to this because you have HOOVES, but seriously!

Neville

If Finnigan needs anything, let me know. Do you know what he was thinking? Is he utterly barmy?

I'm so bloody sick of Gryffindors getting Why can't anyone do what

I knew this week was going too smoothly.

Private

What do I have to do to convince them that I'm not really part of the IS? I've done nothing since Parvati was daft enough to get herself caught and every time something bad happens, they turn on me. Again.

At this point, it'd almost be easier to just do what they think I'm doing. It'd save my arse and get me in good with the Powers That Be, and with Angus in Azkaban, that can't hurt.

But seriously, who the bloody hell tortures animals for the fun of it? It made me sick and I don't know how long I can keep flubbing the Curse. What if I can do it? Wouldn't that make me just as bad as Angus? And it wouldn't help anything except get me in better with the Carrows. And do I want that?

Declan

Anything going on? Rumors I need to know about?

G6

I brought back some candy from Hogsmeade for anyone who didn't get to go. I left some on the table downstairs for whoever wants it, but I saved some for us. Come to my room to get it, if you want it. Not sure if you will, considering you think I'm the devil incarnate

I hope everyone's having a good Monday.

Private

I've always wanted a pet. Now I'm glad that Angus is was is such an arse.

Everyone alright?

To whomever switched the tables:

I get what you were trying to do or at least I understand your goal. But what did you hope to accomplish? You've arsed off the professors and the Headmaster, gotten someone who I assume is your friend into more trouble, and for what? Do you think something like that is going to change anything?

Take a look at the Prophet sometime. It's not like things aren't changing everywhere. We have a new Minister, new laws, and new regulations. Why do you think Hogwarts should be exempt? If anything, you need to adjust your thinking so that you can be productive members of society once you're out of school. And being troublemakers after Seventh Year is only going to get you a one way ticket to Azkaban.

So stop being so bloody selfish and just follow the rules, will you?

( Private )

Private

Who kills people on Christmas? And in church at that? That's just bloody wrong. Poor Rhiana. I hope she's alright.

I wonder how Colin and Dennis are doing. As far as I know, nobody's heard from them, but that might not be true. Who'd tell me anyway? They'd have announced if they'd caught Colin at least, though. He was one of Potter's biggest fans, so they'd make something of it. He wouldn't have been able to keep his mouth shut about it.

Will they come after the children of Muggleborns next? Only way to stay safe from that is to continue on, I guess, and convince the Carrows of my loyalty.

And of course Mum forgot about Christmas. Or at least forgot about me. Not a surprise really. She's always been a selfish bint.

Colin

Hope you're well. It's rubbish here You've probably heard, but Hogwarts is awful Stay safe.

Happy Christmas.

G6

I don't know if you all saw the Prophet yesterday, but Rhiana McKay's parents were killed. They don't know where she is, though. Happy fucking Christmas

Yue

How're you?

I always forgot how loud Gryffindors are until it's the hols and most everyone leaves. It's quiet as a tomb here now. Bugger, that's an awful description, even if it's accurate
