"I’d be having a very different conversation with you if you hadn’t caught it. I’m just letting you know that I am proud of you and that you did a good job."

"Well, I tried my best not to fail and let you guys down, but the fact that you would have lectured me if I missed it helped too. Thank you, Cap', it actually weighs a lot."

"Oh Merlin.” She folding her arms and raised an eyebrow. “Look, Black, it’s great that you feel so superior and everything, but ask anyone, I’m not the type of girl to play with a frisbee.”

Rolling his eyes, Regulus gave in with a sigh. "The truth is prefects can't take points from houses other than theirs anyway. I was just messing with you - but make sure that frisbee disappears before I report you for real."

Yes they are, sorry I’m suffering from a severe lack of attention today.

"Do not let it bother you, it's just a letter." he lied. "Anything on your mind, miss Selwyn?"

"Are you kidding me? I’m not skipping, and going to visit Pomfrey is a valid excuse. I’m calling bias, if you were any other Prefect you would let me walk.”

"Then I am the only prefect doing his job, apparently. Has no importance, the points will still be taken from Ravenclaw, and I think you should be grateful for I could have got you detention if I put effort into it."

"Pardon, this first year peed their pants, Black. I’m only late to Potions because I was helping them to the infirmary for a calming draught and to clean up."

"Excuse me, miss, are you by any chance prefect? No! Then it wasn't your place to help when you should have been attending classes. Skipping is punished with taking points and I'm afraid that's what I shall do." 

She groaned in frustration. “Look, you aren’t the only prefect around here. I was doing my job.” She said, shaking her head. “Are you new at this?”

"If that is the card you choose to play as excuse, I must say it isn't working." Regulus refused to believe her, shaking his head. "It doesn't matter, I'm efficient and can not be fooled."

"I wasn't joking, I'm afraid. Those points still need to be taken, regardless of your absurd excuses."

"Sorry but I think I took your letter by mistake"

Snatching the letter from her hand, he kept a polite smile on his lips as he asked "Does that mean these are yours?" showing her a couple of envelopes.

"Yes, because I took it off of a fourth year!” She gestured to where the boy had ran off. “I swear to merlin, Black, if you take those points I’ll report you.” She said, folding her arms smugly.

"Report me because I penalize you for breaking the rules? As if that could happen, miss Candus." Regulus huffed, prepared to cast the spell to take points. "That's a not very good alibi you've got there, though." he muttered in closing.

"You are such a little brown nosing- if you must, then you must."

"Do not talk to me like that, scum. I definitely must, and if you're being impertinent, I'll take some more."

"As if Razor Blankets were child's play." he huffed, frowning at the other boy in pure hatred. "And speaking of Professor McGonagall, I might let her know too what you're up to." Regulus threatened him.

She looked at him in astonishment. “But, they aren’t mine!” She said, her voice rising. “What on earth would I do with-” She read the label. “a fanged frisbee?" She said.

"You are holding it." he pointed out sharply, looking down to the frisbee with coldness. "People might get hurt if you don't get rid of it immediately. Meanwhile, I'll be taking five points from Ravenclaw."
