Why was I led away from my dormitory yesterday? Bella, who have you been dragging into our rooms? This really has to stop. I will have to send a letter to Professor Slughorn. Again ( Read more... )

Isn't the uproar generally of a sexual nature? We are a hormone-driven lot after all. And better sex than murder.

It usually is, yes. You --the general 'you', Benjamin, not 'you' yourself. I find you quite sensible.-- are all over-sized three year olds who titter and giggle immaturely about these things. But yes, better sex than murder, I suppose. Isn't there any other options?

I like to think of myself as reasonably sensible at times, so thank you kindly.

Don't think so. Me, I could settle for a nice bout of snogging and a bit of mischief. But we seem to be teetering between the two extremes of late.

Well, for as long as you conduct yourself in private, I don't see how that can be a problem. However, the denizens in this school have the tendency to have the sense of humor and facination of toddlers. Are we? I don't believe I've heard anything about murders.

I can assure you that, were I to have an exhibitionist streak, this would hardly be the place I'd indulge it.

I think that toddlers might actually be a bit more sophisticated than the average student here. They are only temporarily fascinated by the allure of flashing lights, after all

No murders around here, as far as I can tell, but quite a bit of chatter about them a few weeks ago. And that lead to a nice spat of violence.

I suppose you're right. I wonder if it's possible to relocate the majority of the students to the lake, while the better students get to enjoy an idiot-free castle.

In my experience, violence is the daily ritual in Hogy-warty Hogwarts. I don't see how that is out of place.

Alas, I think that we're stuck together for better or for worse. Look at this as character-building, I guess.

It wasn't quite the violence, more the...level of it. But, happily, it seems to have subsided. Rather have Fletcher and Rita making all method of lewd comments at one another than brawls.

I suppose you're right. With the amount of 'character building' we get, it's a wonder hexes don't bounce off of us.

*sigh* I suppose so.
