Private Message to Draco Malfoy and Hermione Granger

[alt_harry]

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.

Yeah, you're rubbish at that.

I suppose if you were grave and serious then people might think that you were just focusing on the competition, or something?

So. Are you going to try to win at all?

[alt_harry]

Yeah. I am.

I mean, it's important. It'd be disrespectful otherwise.

[alt_draco]

I agree. And you know I'll help you prepare anyway I can. As much as it's allowed, anyway.
