Dragon Rider

Uh, would you die if I politely asked you to? But I wouldn’t do that. The Roses would be mad at me. And I’m not a killer. And you’re not the worst person in the world.

No, I’d only die if it was to protect somebody else important. Like Marley or Rose or the fate of dragonkind. Yeah, they would not be too happy. And they’re really smart, I’m sure they could kill you and make it look like an accident. NOT THE WORST? Oh my Merlin, we’re friends!

You Know What?

YOU SHOULD GET A GOLDEN RETRIEVER! OR A LAB! ONE OF THOSE TWO!

Due to come unforeseen circumstances, I will be taking over teaching Care of Magical Creatures until the end of the school year. I’m sure you’re all curious but I wouldn’t bother asking any questions because I can’t answer them. I just hope I do justice through your exams and classes.

I’m not going to lie, I’m super curious to what’s going on. Is Professor McCoy okay at least? I promise I won’t bug you with any other super annoying questions. Well, that’s not true. By the end of the year, I’ll ask you tons about dragons since you’re in charge of magical creatures now.

I appear to have made myself almost sentimental/emotional over the fact that there’s almost a month left with some people. Damn it. Now, how to get people to fail certain classes so they can’t leave.

We’re kidnapping Jamie! You and me, dream team! He’s not allowed to leave!

Six weeks.

NO! You aren’t allowed to leave, you have to stay forever. Rose can’t keep the Slytherins from picking on me all alone!

Well, I’m not entering. I find it hard enough not to be killed by the staircases moving all the time.

Doesn’t a kid die everytime there’s one? Let’s just throw every Hufflepuff in there. Except Meeko. Meeko stays.

UH! Rude Pierpont! I would never let you die for the sake of competition.

Wait the sex talk or the Father Christmas talk? They’re very different things, Grasshopper! Yeah, me. And you spent half the first time talking about ejaculation and then the entire second wanting to talk about our feelings instead, totally unhelpful when all I wanted to do was snog. Yeah, that’ll show me. Merlin forbid I have to blow up a whoopee cushion alone. Perfect, huh? What exactly did you do on this ‘best date ever’? You don’t have any good looks, so absolutely nothing. Well, Charms is absolutely my best subject and Transfiguration is my second, probably tied with Arithmancy. So you are in luck, Hugo Weasley. Oh my god, please shut up. I need to burn this image from my brain forever. I need to go find someone to obliviate the though of Ryder and I snogging away forever. He’s already good at evil laughter now, how do you think he got the spot on the radio?

THE SEX TALK! Shut up, Kitty! Well, maybe you should talk about your feelings a little bit more. I was really confused after Gracie told me she liked me, alright? And you were obviously really upset about the whole Henry breaking your heart thing even if you want to pretend you’re super okay with it. Snogging should mean something! Maybe that’s your problem! You know what, I don’t crap all over you’re talents. We went on a picnic by the lake, packed it myself. It was very romantic if I do say so myself. Well, I was good looking enough for you to snog, wasn’t I? So you’re going to help me then? KITTY AND RYDER SITTING IN A TREE! K-I-S-S-I-N-G! I thought all the radio people were there as punishments?

Thanks, man. I uh, appreciate that. I just don’t want to hurt her.

Well, you’re being honest with her. I think that’s a step in the right direction.

Must come in handy when someone underestimates you. Practially a lion? Familial connections do not a lion make, or I’d be practically a snake. Man’s delusional, not that that’s not common knowledge. The ones paying for it are right stupid but whatever, guess everyone has to get their kicks somewhere. I understand the concept of an honest living, and it’s what I plan for myself as well, but morality isn’t always black and white so it depends on the situation and why they’re doing it.

Everyone is constantly underestimating me so I hope you’re right. Well, it’s always where I thought I’d be sorted. My parents were both Gryffindors and so is my sister. Plus, I like to think I’m brave and chivalrous. I’m proud of being a Hufflepuff though. Naw, it really isn’t but there are things that are kind of definitely right and definitely wrong. Swindling people out of their savings and making a profit on their hopes and dreams? Bit sketchy.

Oh okay, thank you  I thought that was a girl you wre talking about mate. 

It’s an understandable mistake, Rory. Josie’s as pretty as any girl.

Well isn’t that cute, you trying to be all protective. Good for you. I’m sure she’s just as happy if not more. I am actually offended by your assumption that I would do such a thing, and to be honest  I think you’re the one being rude here, Hugo. I can be very nice.

I’m always protective of the people I care about, it’s part of caring about someone. Well, I hope so. She deserves all the happiness in the world. Really? Because I looked up Mary Sue, and it basically means you were making fun of Marley by calling her unrealistically nice and too perfect.

IS THAT NOT ALLOWED? BUT THERE’S SO MANY PEOPLE I NEED TO HUG ON A REGULAR BASIS. 

No, it’s allowed. I’m just being a pain in the arse. I think there should never ever be restrictions on hugging, it’s too nice.

It’s very nice. Hey, if you want to support them you go ahead and do that. I won’t stop you. Really? Why would you get them if they were awful, or did someone else give you them. Why is everyone assume I’m going with someone? No, I’m going alone. I’ll probably have more fun that way.

Thanks, mate, I appreciate it. You did play really well though. They were hand-me-downs, my dad had them when he was my age. I think he thought suffering through their ugliness would make me a better person or something. Oh no, I wasn’t - It’s cool to go alone too! I did that for Valentine’s Day! Well, I hope you had lots of fun.
