Potter, I had begun to hope we had finally plumbed the depths of your intellectual vacuity and general dearth of common sense.
Clearly, another reminder to me of the pointlessness of 'hope'.
1. If you must drink to excess, you ought not to do it in a public locale. There are those who still believe your death would resurrect their fallen Lord. You need not make such an easy and tempting target.
Not that I care, but Re Lupin would possibly be distressed.
2. If you must make an arse of yourself, have the consideration not to involve others. At least avoid dragging your betters through the muck with you. Ginevra is far too good for the likes of you.
And Wood, for that matter.
3. You might take the opportunity, when in public, to remember you are a bloody WIZARD - or so I am told. Have you not yet learnt of obscurement charms or glamours or any other of dozens of ways to conceal your identity from the press?
Ah! But I forget - you only pretend to dislike the fawning adoration of the unwashed masses and their loyal

1. Though I did drink to excess, to use your terms, there was obviously no problem. I'm sure you mourn the fact that I still draw breath. I mourn the fact that you still do as well.
2. Excuse me? Who are you to assume that Ginny is too good for me? I dated her while we were in school, and even until several months ago. And if she hadn't lied about that bloody article, we might be dating again. Your opinion was not requested. Also, when was the last time you went out with a person with whom you could possibly be romantically involved? It's doubtful, though, that the likes of you would be even mentioned in passing in any of the papers. No one cares to hear about the most hideous, rudest being this side of the UK.
3. I. Am. Not. Fame. Hungry. I would prefer if my private life were kept just that: private. However, someone who has done as much as I have, unlike you, sometimes cannot avoid being in publications. This is not to say I enjoy it. At first, when I was eleven, it was exciting. Now that I am twenty years

((Ink is splotchy and letters appear jagged, as though the quill has torn through the page on Severus' end as he attempts to write while in full-rage.))
1. You know NOTHING of what I mourn, so keep your ignorance to yourself!
2. Ginevra and I are research partners on several projects. She is attractive, intelligent, sharply witty and warmly compassionate. Obviously she is too good for the likes of you.
The answer to your impertinent question is far more recently than you might think, not that it is any of your business. I wish I could see your face when Remus tells you!
3. You are a fame-hungry little prat who goes out of your way to seek attention and drag others through the mud with you!! If you were not fame-hungry, even an idiot like yourself would know better than to sit in a public bar and get pissed!
As for personal responsibility for my actions, BOY, you have absolutely NO IDEA of what you speak! Spending twenty wasted years trying to keep your reckless, idiotic, worthless head attached to your scrawny body just

Well, the last time I saw Oliver, he smacked me over the head with his broom, so I wouldn't really call that getting on.
I thought it was the other way round, that the Daily Prophet wanted to equal the circulation of Witch Weekly and therefore create more fictional crap than WW does. At least that was the way it was in school; I don't pay much attention anymore. Because of shit like this.
Private to HarrysafinniganNovember 21 2006, 16:49:23 UTC
Aye, mate, broom smacking does seem a bit unfriendly. Don't suppose you were going for his goal at the time then?
Well now, collecting the Daily Prophet each day for Neville's compost does make it seem more popular than a weekly mag, that's for certain. Right, didn't know Witch Weekly had such massive circulation. 'Tis Which Broomstick that this Irishman reads....
Private to Harrym4moonyNovember 21 2006, 07:00:58 UTC
Language, young man! You're starting to sound like Sirius more and more.
As I continue to make it a practice not to read that particular publication, do I want to know that WW is saying this week? I presume, it is, for once a werewolf free article or you would be chortling privately at me instead of ranting publicly?
Private to RemusboywhoisharryjpNovember 21 2006, 15:23:25 UTC
You know that telling me I sound like Sirius isn't going to make me watch my language; it'll make me increase the usage until everyone's telling me I sound like him.
Someone owled me a clipping of Sabrina's Sightings, of which Ginny and I were the main subject. We'd gone out for drinks on Friday night and gotten a little too cozy. She told me she was single, and so we sat a little too close, were a little too flirtatious...and this horrible woman saw it. I didn't know she was dating Oliver or I would have killed him/s>, or I wouldn't have done it. It's just frustrating that she lied to me, you know?
Private to Harrym4moonyNovember 21 2006, 16:04:16 UTC
Yes, I know. But, humor an old wolf, eh?
I do remember hearing someone, I forget who, mention Ginny was seeing Coach Wood. The staff does love knowing all about each members' private lives here. I'm sorry you had to learn about it in this way though. It doesn't seem like Ginny to be deliberately misleading about her relationship with him if she was with you that evening.
In any case, don't let Witch Weekly get to you. Trust me when I say the best method of dealing with that poor excuse of a gossip rag publication is to ignore it's existence. It at least saves you on dreading waking up to read two publications -- the Daily Prophet is bad enough.

Crap! We promised Ginny we wouldn't say anything... Dammit!

Well then, you and Oliver not getting on? Imagine that. As I told him, all of the trouble and none of the benefits.
Aye, lad, Witch Weekly wishes to rival the Prophet for fiction.

Good to see you back, even though I haven't really seen you. We should get together and commiserate soon.
