So. We ought to get together before Saturday, yeah? I've had a chance to talk to Perks already, and she's excited about the whole thing.

And I'd like a list from both of you of people from your houses you think would be good to get on our team. Along with what they're good at. Because it wouldn't do if everyone on our team was ace at Charms, but no-one could manage Transfig, right?

I'm more interested in getting people who'll get the job done than anything. They don't have to be popular, just good at what they do and good at working in a group.

I think we've got the best shot at nabbing Krum for our side, but do either of you know any Beauxbatons students that would be good? They'd have to speak decent English. Just to make it easier.
Harry casting a spell
Okay.

Why is Draco so hacked off?

And I just know he'll see this and go, "Oh, that figures, he's talking to her again without me," but it he asked for it, and it wasn't that big of a deal, was it? I thought you'd like

you know

a little bit of privacy because it's something we have to sort out together.

Not like asking Draco to be a part of it would be bad, but you know, I wanted you to be able to say anything you wanted. I didn't think it'd be that important to him.

And we were all talking about it together on that thing he wrote about his dad any ways so it's not like I was cutting him out on information or something. So what got his wand stuck up his arse? I'm doing EVERYTHING he's suggested, I've been TRYING to take his advice, but that must not be good enough.

Because apparently, I can't do anything right. Ever. For anybody.
Harry looking up and ahead
Hey Hermione.

So I know we haven't had a lot of time to talk what with the ball, but we need to would it be okay to?

I met with Mr Malfoy before the dance.

And he said he'd be back in March and wanted me to show him then.

The Razzer says I can practise on animals. That I don't have to practise on you.

So there's that.

But I'm pretty sure we're not going to be able to properly fake it.

So there's that too.
ball happy
The Weird Sisters are wicked!

I hope everyone's having a good time.

The food was really good, and everyone looks really nice.
Harry flying
Hey, Honoria.

I was wondering if you'd be free to talk after breakfast tomorrow. Could you meet me by the doors to the Great Hall at half past nine?
Harry wide-eyed
So it turns out Cho just said yes because she thought she had to. Because it was me asking. And Cedric Diggory is her boyfriend. And now she's sad because she wanted to go with him.

So I told her that it was okay and she could go with him because that's what they both want.

And now he'll have to turn down Moon only that's not too bad because they were just going as friends.

But I have to ask someone else. Padma said I should ask Parvati because she's got a date but she doesn't like him.

I'd ask Hydra, but she's already got a date, and I don't want someone else getting broken up because of me.

I hate this. All of this. It's so stupid and complicated at the same time. And why didn't she just say she was going with Diggory? Did she really think she just couldn't say? Did she think I was that much of a prick or something that I wouldn't take no for an answer? And Parvati is probably going to say yes for the same reasons too. It's all a giant mess.
Harry wide-eyed
Hi.

So I heard that you and Diggory were going out and all. And you were going to go with him to the ball. Before I asked you.

It's okay. Really. It's not that big a deal.

I mean, if you'd have said something when I asked, I would've understood. And I didn't know. I wouldn't have asked if I knew.

There are still lots of people who haven't been asked yet. If you want to go with him because he's your boyfriend or something, you ought to. I'll just ask someone else. Because I want you to be happy. And I don't want to take someone else's girl. I'm not that sort of person.

So maybe you could talk it over with him and let me know once you have.

I don't want you to think I'm angry or something, because I'm not. I just want to know so I can sort out if I need to ask someone else. That's all. Okay?
Harry casting a spell
I still haven't figured out the second thing yet. Because alot of people have been asking, I figured I'd just tell everyone this way. It's still an egg. It still screeches when you open it. I tried putting earmuffs on it, but that didn't help.

Anyways. Who is staying here for the Yule Ball? I guess pretty much everyone is. And it'll be fun. I guess. It'll be fun spending Christmas here when everyone else will be here too.

Granger.

Fetch me an extra quill. And some green ink.
Harry looking up and ahead
Granger.

Here's your journal back.

People are going to be paying a lot of attention to what I say to you. And what I write to you. And what you say and write back. And it's important that you know your place. So I'll be expecting for you to address me properly from now on. Lesson learned.

I'll talk to you more tomorrow. I'm too tired to right now.
Harry looking around
I have to ask someone to the ball.

Professor Slughorn just told me that the champions have to take someone and they have a first dance, so I have to. I mean, I figured I would, but now I know I do for sure.

Who are you asking?
Harry looking up and ahead
Hey.

I've been thinking the last few days. Alot.

I wanted to say I was sorry. For lots of things. But I wanted to say sorry first for what I said to you when I was angry. That was not on. And I'm sorry for your punishment. And that I didn't listen to you more.

Because you were right. I messed up. Okay? I made a mistake. It's my fault.

I can't promise anything, but I'm going to try to be better. I'm going to try and make a better impression for other people. Because I don't want either of you punished because of me like that any more. Not if I can do something about it. And I hope you're going to help me.

Well

I didn't die. So that's something.

Madame Pomfrey fixed up my arm. So that's going to be fine.

Thanks for all the well-wishes.
Harry frightened
I think I've finally got it down.

But I want you to get me up early tomorrow so we can practice some more.

It'll be from far enough away so I want to make sure. How close does it have to be for it to work? I guess we'll find out. Or we could test it. Like from more than just across the room?

Maybe you could hold it for me just outside the stadium so it won't be so far away.

What do you think?

Will it work?

Raz and... everyone seems to think so. I'm just not sure if I do too.

I wonder what everyone else has planned.

I'm going to die, aren't I.
Harry casting a spell
Right.

You know that thing we talked about after dinner?

Draco and Hermione and me are going on a walk.

If you want to come.

Meet you by the front hall in twenty minutes.
Harry casting a spell
I don't know anything. Everyone else looks like they know what's going on and Delacour has been reading things. Should I be reading things? What things? Does she know something I don't?

I want to do more drill things today.
Harry casting a spell
Sally Anne. I know you and Pansy know lots of people. People from other houses.

I want you both to spread a rumour. You know. Without letting people know you are.

I want you to tell people that you heard that I didn't put my own name in the goblet.That I put in a fake name. That's why I was so surprised when my name came out. So that means that the goblet was rigged for my name, not Diggory's. He's the one the goblet really chose for Hogwarts.

That's the rumour I want you to tell people. Okay?

And you can tell Pansy what I told you.
Harry in Slytherin robes, holding his wand.
Cheers, Diggory.

Krum and Delacour too.

I don't know what happened with the Goblet. Or why it put out four names instead of three. But it doesn't matter. We're all Champions now.

And let the best ma person win.
Harry wide-eyed
I knew it.

I knew they would rig it.

It didn't make any difference whether I put my name in or not.

Father is pacing back and forth, I think he's really angry. But he's not angry at me, he's angry because it picked Diggory too. I don't think it was supposed to do that. Choose two of us.

and that one French professor, he's really angry. Like almost as angry as Father. He's speaking in French really fast. And shaking his head.

Diggory offered to step down but I told him no. The Cup picked him. Everyone saw it. And someone said something about it not being legal. His stepping down, I mean. Because it's like a contract. So that means I can't step down either. Not like Father would let me.
Harry looking up and ahead
Cheers about the song and all. And to Pansy too. And the music party was fun.

I saw what your father wrote.

I'm still not putting my name in.

I don't get it. Everyone thinks it's going to be me no matter what. I think if they wanted me to be champion so bad they should've waited until I was in sixth year. Then it would be more fair. Anyways. Father would be angry if I put my name in and it didn't pick me. Or if I got picked but lost the cup. So he'll just get angry at me now instead of later.
