All apologies.

All sympathies.

What else can I say?

I can't take this kind of thing happening. Again.

Boot.

If I don't end up in common room shortly...

Let's say there's an ashtray I'm willing to ignore.

Re: Boot.

[bootme]

I'll keep that in mind, Professor, but I'm not sure I want to leave the room right now.

Of course, I'm not sure I want to stay here, either.

Re: Boot.

[pomonasprout]

Failing that, I think it's safe to say you're welcome in Hufflepuff common room...

Heaven's sakes.

[pomonasprout]

I'll not have you sitting in your room alone, when Finch-Fletchley is down here in common room with me. Let me make my excuses to my Hufflepuffs and I'll be on my way over. You're coming up to Hufflepuff whether you like it or not, my lad.

This is wise. Trust me.

[fletchfinchley]

We're going to have to take it, unless we want to end up like Corner. Or Dean.

[bootme]

Completely understood. But...I don't know what I mean to say.

On any level.

Sorry.

[fletchfinchley]

Don't be sorry. I don't think any of us really know what we mean to say right now.

[bootme]

Still have to be. Sorry, I mean.

I mean, all I could do is repeat words that aren't mine and wait for Sprout to bang on the door to drag me down to Hufflepuff.

[pomonasprout]

I may have been overly... Assertive.

If, when we get back to Hufflepuff, you find that it's not where you'd like to be, I'll bring you right back with no questions asked. Acceptable?

By the way, I'm on your doorstep. You might want to let me in, or come on out, or something of that kind. Feel free to bring your journal, if you like. Heavens know I've been carrying mine around.

[bootme]

Understood.
