notapipe @ July 8 2003, 17:49:27 UTC fine, alright already.

I like the idea of using a broomstick in the house. It's certianly reasonable.

well it's not like he can apparate yet.

Besides, being airborne gives him a height advantage over the house-elves. Not to mention speed and maneuverability.

girlchild @ July 8 2003, 18:15:15 UTC

*snickers* it sounds like you're advertising for a product. try the new and improved potterstinks! now with increased speed and maneuverability! same great comfort and protection, exciting new airborne options!! now for just $19.99! try the strawberry, it's delicious!

... except draco would be pissed if we were to sell him for only $19.99, of course.

and now i will stop interjecting random things. *^^*

merlion @ July 8 2003, 20:05:24 UTC

Oh dear. It did sound rather like an advertisement, didn't it? Oops. And I was aiming for a more ... militant mindset.

We couldn't sell him for just $19.99, he's too unique. Although, I think the price if he WAS auctioned off [for charity ;)] would be much higher. All those screaming fan girls competeing against Harry.

girlchild @ July 8 2003, 20:11:18 UTC

yeah, i'd give at least $20. *^^*

if they ever did auction off draco, or harry, or whomever, the price would be crazy. thirteen year old girls would sell their parents. chaos would ensue! i do not think this is healthy.

i just want a strawberry-flavored draco, to be honest. he could sit under my computer desk with the cat and lick his crotch. [[haha, i'm in such a random mood.]]

tabiji @ July 8 2003, 20:58:49 UTC

*perving* If I bid on him and he was under my desk...the crotch licking would be...different.

merlion @ July 8 2003, 21:15:17 UTC

ROFL. I think I just snorted my milk through my nose!!
Strawberry. Yum!

I really don't think I can add anything to that, except to second it. There is no way I can even compete anymore. *takes off hat and salutes you both*

tabiji @ July 8 2003, 21:28:32 UTC

As I re-read this, I see that it could also mean that Draco is licking the cat...!

girlchild @ July 9 2003, 06:57:37 UTC

that is so right on. boy has to earn his keep, after all, i'm shelling out a whole $20 for him.

CONCLUSION: draco is a prostitute.

I can't figure out his tone, exactly. It seems sarcastic but it could also just be PS' usual speech patterns. Could he be indirectly trying to help the Weasley's?

I doubt it, this just seems like more of the same from him. Both Draco and Lucius are known to make comments like this all the time, saying one thing for the public and meaning another. Like Lucius' comments about how sad it is that students died and how unfortunate and how he hoped that funeral attire wouldn't be necessary.

Also I am pretty sure that as in canon, Arthur works in the misuse of muggle artifacts department. And since he is working with muggle things it is viewed as an inferior position in the ministry.

quixotic_sense @ July 9 2003, 00:00:51 UTC Re: hmmm

Actually, his tone came off as rather gloating to me. ^^

At least we now know the story behind Arthur's pay cut. And sneaky Lucius, using the rebuilding of the North Tower was an excuse for the cuts, so no one dares to criticise him.

All I wanted was a bit of jam.

Ahh, my dear ps. Why deny the truth? All you wanted was a bit of ham.

*snicker*
