Oh God ...

Really, this school is full of so much drama it's a wonder we're even considering the idea of livening it up with a Shakespeare play ( Read more... )

Hey, mate, don't pin this one on me. I found mine in the dungeons. and I put Boggart containment charms all over the inside of the thing he is in, and I will not tell you where it is, in case Josh gets wind of our little plot. Oh, he will pay. I am feeling very righteous. It feels good. I want to smite something. Too bad I have morals.

Cannot help but feeling rather miffed, because Chaeyz was right in saying they're not really doing this because of what Josh did to me, they're just using that as an excuse to do something probably quite horrible to him. And while I would love to see Josh get his comeuppance, this really does not seem like the way it should go. I've a horrible feeling this is not going to work out the way the pranksters would want.

I can't help but feel they're being almost as bad as Josh. I know what it's like to be locked up with your fears, and it really is a horrible thing to do to anybody.

I thought Gryffindors (and Hufflepuffs, Hugh) were supposed to be the ones with scruples and morals. Lowering yourself to your enemy's level doesn't seem at all something to be proud of.

I don't know. I don't like Josh, but I don't like what you guys are planning, either.

It's funny, isn't it, you asked Hugh whether or not he wanted something done to Josh, and he said no so you didn't, but you didn't give me that opportunity before you hied off to exact

Minda, listen very carefully.

I don't feel sorry about what I did. I know Hugh is, and maybe even James, a little, now that we've gotten a bit of revenge, but I'm not. I don't really understand why they seemed surprised to find that Josh is actually a bit of a snivelling coward.

The point is, I want to tell you I do have morals. I knew what I was doing before we did it; I know that anyone looks pretty pathetic when they have to face their worst fears, but after all the things he's done to the other kids, over the years, I really don't feel a bit of pity for him. That's justice. And Gryffindors are supposed to be just, remember.

But the really important thing is, it was for me, what we did to Josh. I admit that. But it wasn't just for me. It's also for Hugh, and for you, and for everyone else he's ever been evil to. Just knocking you on the head and sticking you in a closet -- especially when you'd been locked up in one a little while ago -- that was the last straw. And maybe we should have asked you. The important thing is, we ( ... )

We should have asked you, yes. After all, it's not as if you're incapable of taking revenge. And Merlin knows you're smart.

For me--this was about what Josh did to you. That was the last straw, especially since he knew how badly you'd suffered just a short time before. I'm a Hufflepuff, remember--above all, we're loyal. Badgers don't fight for fun, but they are fanatically protective of their own. And they'll fight to the death ( ... )

The boggart has been returned to Flitwick. Naturally, we didn't destroy it. It wasn't OUR boggart, after all, and the study group needs something to practice on ( ... )

When Josh entered, he started looking around for me...which didn't work, as I was hiding under James's invisibility cloak. Sirius, James and Peter were each standing on toilets in different stalls; but the only stall that was visibly locked was the stall with the boggart in it. The boggart was not happy about being locked up and kept thumping on the stall door ( ... )

And yeah, Minda...I am feeling kind of ashamed of myself right now.

I, on the otherhand, feel no pity for that bloody bastard. It was fantastic watching him cower under the same torment he put you under. That is what I would like to call poetic justice. It may look incredibly selfish, or as an excuse to you, but I assure you we did it with the best intentions.

Mates, why didn't we use my boggart? I went through all that trouble, and then you blokes steal Flitwick's? I got scared out of my wits Because I couldn't remember the Boggart tracking spell, and you go and pull that stunt?

Er...probably because at least one of us thought that your boggart and Flitwick's were one and the same.

Sorry, James.
