I had no intention of going at all, but McGonagall's somehow manipulated me into agreeing to 'make an appearance'. Of course, come to find out that 'making an appearance' actually means that I have to stick around for most of not all of the bloody thing.
If you want, we can stand around looking miserable at this thing together.
If the pet dog thing is some weird way to get me to put a leash on you, it's not happening, Ferret.
What's the matter with my hair? And why do people keep bringing it up? I say it's just got character.
Are you mental, man? You're moving into a house with three Gryffindors...EVERY room in the house will be red!
If by date, you mean that you can stand next to me while I hate every second of being there, then yeah, sure I guess I am. But you're paying for your own ticket and don't expect flowers. Oh, and I don't dance.
Who said anything about fantasizing about your neck in a leash? What kind of a freak do you take me for? Dont' answer that.
Oh. Well, depends on the breed I would think.
No shedding. If I do, I'll be sure to get you onwe of those lint rollers.
If you insist, but I'd bury you in a red satin lined coffin.

When does being a gentleman mean sweeping you off your feet, or is that just you hoping again?
Merlin, I suppose I should really learn, shouldn't I? They didn't tell me I was going to have to do that damned dance to open up the Yule Ball - I'd hate to be surprised like that again.

P.S. I have no problem going to this thing alone. I'm perfectly capable of sulking solo, I've gotten rather good at it from what I've been told. I thought it might actually be fun to go to this thing together, safety in numbers and all that. If you're expecting a romantic evening of it - dinner, dancing, a corsage, walking in with you on my arm, and a kiss goodnight at the end of the evening - I'm afraid not. I'm trying to stay out of the papers, remember? Although it would make for a very interesting headline.
I believe I mentioned that you confessed your undying love to me. And then I told him that we were running away together after the gala.
I didn't say anything, Potter. Wait, I said that technically you and Severus had asked me to the gala. That's it. Merlin, what do you think I would have said?

Are you asking me to be your date, Potter?
What? Leash? No. No, but it's good to know that you fantasize about my pretty neck confined to one.
I didn't say anything about your hair. I meant my hair is better than a dog's. Idiot.
Though, now that you've brought it up, do you shed a lot? Because that could get annoying living in the same house with you and all.
Kill me now, then, and spare me.

Are you sure? It's a very witty answer.
Whatever.
You have no taste at all, really.

I could have improved since the Yule Ball, maybe I just don't like dancing. Like I had time to practice dancing since then.
Oh alright. I'm in need of a good laugh.
That's not saying much about yourself there Ferret.

I doubt it. You're just too awkward. You have none of my grace.
Hm? Oh, nevermind. I don't feel like sharing now.
Piss off.

Alright, I'll give you the grace bit - but I'm by no means awkward. I just never learnt to dance really.
You never had a witty answer to begin with, did you?
Don't say it unless you mean it, Ferret.

P.S. Are you going to this thing with me or do I have to find someone else to stand around hating life with?
Reply
I'll teach you if you ask nicely. I've been dancing since I was three.
Maybe, maybe not.
Yeah, yeah.

PS: I don't know. Are you honestly asking me or do you not care who you go with?

You really should or else you'll look like an idiot and then everyone would be ashamed to say they know you.

P.S. Fun, hm? But no goodnight kisses? Well, I'll have to think about it for a moment then.

You're probably right. Bugger.

P.S. What exactly are you telling Ron?

Of course I am, Potter.

PS: Nothing. Why?

That's interesting.
Seems he's got psychic abilities I never knew about. It's a wonder he didn't do better in Divination.
What did you tell him, Ferret?

Only thing I do know is he's giving me the third degree over my intentions where you're concerned. I think he's gone mental. Seriously.
Wait...Snape asked you to the Gala? I never knew...makes sense.

Merlin, what part of the word 'technically' do Gryffindors not understand? Do you see why everyone else thought you were idiots?
