Current mood: angry

Ahem.
Excuse me for furthering this nonsense, but I don't want anyone to assume the worst of me from Pansy Parkinson's fictionalised account. I am extremely sorry for not retaining the sense of mind not to rise to Parkinson's bait, for tearing the Arithmancy book which I had first, for so irresponsibly disrupting the studies of those students in the library, and for doing so much to further the violent Gryffindor stereotype. I did not start anything with her, and I regret that she seems to think I was jonesing for a fight in not letting her take the book from me. I should have simply let Parkinson take the book, but I am a bit stubborn at times, and was determined to keep ahold of it, as I really needed it at the moment. Unfortunately, she did not want to let go either, its weak spine tore, and ink did not only drench Parkinson's silly robes but the both of us, all the surrounding books, the floor, and the shelves. I honestly think it was not an accident that she knocked into me as she turned to leave, and while I regret it now, I simply knocked her back without thinking it would go any further.

We only slipped down onto the floor because it was slippery with ink. I did not shove Parkinson down and attempt to beat her head into the floor, and I did not scream obscenities at her. In fact, most of the screaming was hers - I'm not nearly so shrill - and those who had gathered around to watch us, without bothering to try and stop us I might add. But we have detention anyway now and we deserve it. Again, I'm very sorry for making such a spectacle of myself. That was how it happened, but I still can't imagine how I allowed it to happen. No one won, so you can stop your silly betting, unless you're betting Parkinson can bind more books than I can, which would be throwing your money away.

I was just admiring that picture and wondering if you'd ever used it!


missgranger @ 2004-05-21 08:28 pm UTC

I was saving it for a special occasion! Have you got ink, then?

I'm serious if it's green-blue or blue-green ink.

Well, you certainly, er, held your own, Hermione. I'll be sure to stay out of your way if you're eyeing any book I'm using in the library, but I was glad to see you uphold the Gryffindor honor.

That was more excitement than we've had in the library for weeks.


missgranger @ 2004-05-21 09:46 pm UTC

Oh, truly, Neville, I'm not about to take a book someone's using, especially yours! Thank you for the support, though!

Oh, dear. I'm glad no one was seriously hurt.


missgranger @ 2004-05-21 10:44 pm UTC

Unfortunately, the book suffered the most damage.
