I am sufficiently underwhelmed. Watching a fish in its tank would be more enthralling than writing in a journal for no reason or reading other peoples' pointless writing - or ink blots in Weasley's case. Too bad my stupid father won't let me even have a fish. Maybe that's what we can do tomorrow, Chloe. We'll sneak in a fish and then take bets on

If things get boring it's up to you to change it.

[smithami]

Don't give me your inspirational tripe, Wood.

[competitivewin]

That's not tripe, Smith.

[smithami]

It sure is.

[competitivewin]

Error.

[smithami]

Don't refer to yourself that way.

[competitivewin]

Hah! You think you're clever, little Ami, but you aren't. I was talking about your judgement.

[smithami]

I'm not clever. I just hate you.

[competitivewin]

Don't sell yourself too short. You've got some cleverness in you.

[smithami]

Well, I'm not in Slytherin, so that severely limits my natural cleverness abilities.

[competitivewin]

Not so. Slytherins don't have the monopoly on cleverness. They just like to think they do, which is proof they don't.

[smithami]

How introspective.

[spareboot]

Practising on hapless bystanders already, Winifred?

[competitivewin]

I was being nice, Boot! Don't be jealous.

[spareboot]

It was more like a sympathetic wincing.

[competitivewin]

Why do you assume that I'm being mean?
