The rest of the story...

Alright, so as I mentioned I'd explain what happened.  I had thought I should check with a professor, but Susan says I'm too insanely 'Rules are rules' for anyone's pleasure, so I should shut it and just speak up

Summerby left? But why?? Hogwarts is supposed to be the safest place in Britain. Doesn't his mum trust Dumbledore? If we're not safe here, where else can we go? I'm going to owl Aunt Amelia about this.

Oh, honestly. Zacharias seems to be muttering something about "Quidditch," and "seeker" and "we'll lose to Ravenclaw for sure." Is that all he can think of at a time like this?! Git.

His mum is distraught, and I imagine not thinking properly. Just as my mum won't when she hears. She'll be right back with Periwin and probably straight here to Hogwarts to retrieve me. She gets a little hot-headed from time to time. It's the Irish in her, I should think.

Smith's such a sad-act! What a pillock for being so insensitive! I'd hex him, but I'm sure you've already done.

In any case, I do hope she comes to her senses soon. Summerby's no better off anywhere else than he is here.

You know me too well, Ernie. Zacharias is glaring at me, I don't think he fancies having bats attacking his face.

Oh I'm sure he doesn't! I hate the bat-bogey hex! What an insipid frustration!

I can't believe Summerby just up and left like that. I met his mum once, on Platform 9 3/4 last year; she seemed so sensible at the time...

Sensibility is often chucked straight to the garden gnomes when one loses a spouse.

Just my two knuts.

I'm going to owl Summerby just to make sure he's alright through all this. Poor lad.
