Never a dull moment.

I had just opened this and was trying to think of what to say when Hermione came rushing past with all these bits of pink fabric in her hands. There was a lot of it.. It looked like.. it might have been a dress? I don't know. She looked upset. I think she was crying. I'd go up there but I can't get into the girls' dorm.

I hope everything's all

It's not.

[_notasquib]

Oh. I'm sorry, Hermione.

[bossy_bookworm]

You have nothing to be sorry for, Neville.

It was my dress. Ron gave it to me. I couldn't keep it. So I shredded it. Only problem now is that I have nothing to wear.

...Oh, Hermione.. Why??? Why didn't you just give it back to him?

[bossy_bookworm]

Because, well, I was just sitting on my bed, you know, reading. And then I happened to glance up and I just saw the dress there. I can't explain what came over me, Harry. Just some huge rage. I felt the dress was symbolic of his opression. So I shredded it.

It was horrible of me, wasn't it?

[really_harry]

Well.. at least it was only a dress.. and not.. you know.. you.

What are you going to do for the ball now?

[bossy_bookworm]

Me? Harry, I may have plunged myself into depression but I am not going to self-harm.

I really don't know, Harry. I have nothing else I can wear.

[really_harry]

I'm glad.

Well. Do you want..erm. Do you want me to get you one?

[bossy_bookworm]

Oh, Harry. What, would be, well. Okay, if you're sure you don't mind.

[really_harry]

No, I don't mind.. erm.. I'm just not exactly sure what.. um.. I think I'll have to take Malfoy with me.

[bossy_bookworm]

Oh, yes, that would be..yes.

How are things between you two?

Did you hear about Mortale?

[really_harry]

Um.. fine? I guess? Good. Very good.

What about him?

[bossy_bookworm]

Well, that's good Harry. I'm glad you're happy.

Oh, he, well. Oh Harry.
