LOL. Did you have to do a comedy hide-behind-a-newspaper-pretending-to-be-reading to stop her seeing you laughing?

[gilpin25]

I can't tell you how fascinating I found the date on the carton of milk while craning forward to hear. Then I was dying to say to her: "Can I use that line in a fan fic?" I'm visualising Tonks to Molly, over tea and sympathy... ;)

[lady_bracknell]

Molly's eyes would widen for a moment, and then she'd say 'Really? Well it is always te quiet ones. Digestive?'

[gilpin25]

Or: "Well, I always feel like that about Arthur, dear, when he's messing around with his pruning shears. Jam tart?"

[kileaiya]

Hee! I'd have had a lot of trouble containing my giggles at that. :D

[gilpin25]

The strange thing was that one minute they having a conversation about hair cuts, and then she suddenly did her werewolf announcement. Don't know how wide my eyes were!

[kileaiya]

What a topic jump!

[mrstater]

LOL Sounds like a spoof-fic to me... Can you imagine the hospital scene? "I've told you a million times! You're good in bed! I care!"

Will you give me a letter?

[gilpin25]

I reckon I could write my Christmas fic round that one line, I should have kept it to myself! But it certainly would give a whole new slant on the hospital scene, although we all know that's what she means anyway, LOL.

I don't want any abuse for this as I've opened the book in front of me - which is OotP - and the word my finger has landed on is Trelawney. So you've got a T.

[mrstater]

Ooh, good letter!

[gilpin25]

You must have foreseen it though? ;)

[godricgal]

LOL So presumably she ought to make sure that anything he does in a car is confined to the back seat...

[godricgal]

Oh, and may I have a letter please?

[gilpin25]

So presumably she ought to make sure that anything he does in a car is confined to the back seat...

Do you think it applies to broomsticks as well? ;)

In the interests of fairness, I've also opened my copy of OotP for you, and pointed to "dreadlocks." So you've got a D.

[godricgal]

Er, I'm not sure I want to think about the back end of a broomstick in that situation - all those twigs...

D is for difficult, which is what I'm finding this exercise. ;)

[bratty_jedi]

A rejoinder like that would certainly help with Remus' "too old" excuse as well. "I can barely keep up with you now! If you were any younger, I'd have no hope."

Nice list. Anything in particular you love about galaxy or just the concept in general?

[gilpin25]

We've really got to rewrite the entire hospital scene, haven't we? There'd be no need for anyone else to chip in, Remus and Tonks could explain it all in a few, short, extremely frank sentences, LOL.

I'm quite interested in astronomy; Husband even more so. Plus there's a delicious bar of milk chocolate called Galaxy... ;)

[bratty_jedi]

That's why Remus was so stiff and wouldn't really look at anyone! He was waiting for Tonks to blurt out something about their sex lives. It all makes so much more sense now.

[gilpin25]

That's why Remus was so stiff and wouldn't really look at anyone!

I can't put that sentence in a child-friendly hospital fic scene. Though obviously it's a nice lead in to Tonks' arguement and the robe shaking. ;)
