I just got this really weird letter. It says it's from Harry but somehow, I'm getting a little suspicious.

Romilda decided to let the note be and headed down to the common room, passing one of the younger students and offering him a brief smile. As soon as she passed him, though, she felt an intense pain just behind her eyeballs and reached her hands up to rub at her dark eyes, biting her lip in pain.
With horror, though, she felt her eyes were very, very different, and rushed back up to her dormitory to examine them in the mirror. She gave a shriek that was, no doubt, heard from down in the common room (and possibly the whole school).
The skin around her eyes had swelled, now red, puffy, and about four times its normal size. Her eyes themselves, however, had pushed outwards with this swelling, and she now resembled a very watery-eyed, puffy-faced fly.
