I'm not desperate, I swear

[brocklememandy]

So.

There's a ball coming up.

Mandy Brocklehurst and Lisa Turpin don't have dates?

WORK ON THAT, PEOPLE.

[Private to Lisa]

Now let's see what happens.

I am working on it.

You girls are so forward this year.

[brocklememandy]

But doesn't it help you know what's going on?

Lisa may or may not kill me, though.

[terry_claw]

Sure, but surprises can be a nice thing too.

I think your safe. Lisa seems alright at least to me.

[brocklememandy]

With this sort of thing, it's easier just to get straight to the point. Do you really want to have to beat around the bush when the fate of your social life is hanging in the balance?

You obviously have not been smacked upside the head by her with a pillow. The girl packs a wallop.

[aka_meg]

Megan Jones doesnt have a date either.
Good Luck with yours.
And er..watch out for some underclassmen who may get the message.

[brocklememandy]

I don't think you'll have too much trouble with that though.

Hmmmm. I didn't even consider that danger. Have they been bugging you?

[aka_meg]

I hope not. I think you have a good chance though.

This 5th year boy from Gryfindor keeps asking me and I deny the offers. For one, I dont even know the guy. Times like these makes me wish I had a boyfriend

[brocklememandy]

Don't worry about it! I'm sure they're fighting over you as we speak.

Thanks. I just hope I don't have to take things even further into my own hands. This isn't some Sadie Hawkins dance. (I think that's a Muggle thing...I looked it up.)

Oh, 5th years. They are silly. But at least you have a fall-back guy!

[finch_boy]

Hahahaha. Steal my heart!

[brocklememandy]

I could certainly try! Watch out...

[finch_boy]

Hokay, scary.

[brocklememandy]

Yes well, you shouldn't say suggestive things around me unless you want me to run with it. I'm very impressionable.

[black_cissy]

...

Desparate?

[brocklememandy]

At least I'm not a hag that bothers school-children for kicks.

[black_cissy]

At least I'm not a silly school-child.

[brocklememandy]

Are you incapable of doing any better than that?

For shame. I thought former Slytherins would be proficient at this sort of thing.

[timid_turpin]

Mandy! I feel like I just might die! Or at least...I feel that my face is already bright red. [Private to Mandy] This better work, though! [/Private]

[brocklememandy]

Just putting the word out there. Don't worry so much!!

[Private to Lisa] I KNOW! I will be very put out if it doesn't. But we're not the only ones doing it, so at least it's socially acceptable. [/Private]

[timid_turpin]

[Private to Mandy] Are you sure? I haven't seen anyone else doing it...[/Private]

[brocklememandy]

[Private to Lisa] You are talking about advertising for dates, right? Because I've seen quite a few girls leave pleading messages on their journals. Even Lavender and Parvati have been begging and they're usually the first to be prepared for this sort of thing. Funny how the world works. [/Private]
