I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up to No Good

[alt_lee]

Yeah, I'm set, too.

Re: I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up to No Good

[alt_gredforge]

Really? Who'd you ask?

Re: I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up to No Good

[alt_lee]

Jane Bradley.

Re: I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up to No Good

[alt_gredforge]

Huh. Haven't heard you talking about her before.

Re: I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up to No Good

[alt_lee]

I let her copy my potion notes. Owed me a favour.

Re: I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up to No Good

[alt_gredforge]

Well, that's romantic!

(Shouldn't a Ravenclaw get thrown out of the library for that sort of thing?)

Re: I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up to No Good

[alt_lee]

Nah, Jane's all right. Should be fun.

[alt_gredforge]

Better get a move on, Ronnikins, or all the good ones will be taken.

Re: I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up to No Good

[alt_lee]

Who are you two going with?

Re: I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up to No Good

[alt_gredforge]

Angelina Johnson.

Re: I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up to No Good

[alt_gredforge]

Katie Bell.

[alt_neville]

I'm going with Susan Bones.

[alt_gredforge]

Are you? Well, well, well. How very interesting.

[alt_luna]

I didn't expect to be able to go, but Jean-Pierre Anouileh asked me. Which was quite nice of him to do.

Re: I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up to No Good

[alt_ron]

OI!

[alt_ron]

Why is that interesting?

[alt_ron]

Hang on. Is everyone going, then?

[alt_ron]

So. What? You just went up and asked them? Katie and Angelina, I mean.

And they just said yeah?

How'd you get them alone? I mean, all the witches just go around in herds, don't they?

[alt_luna]

Why, I suppose that he already has a date.

[alt_gredforge]

Catch the eye, give a wink, ask the question. Takes savoir faire.

Come to think of it, maybe that's why you're having trouble.

[alt_luna]

Oh, yes, lots of people. Everyone I've heard talking about it is quite excited.

[alt_lee]

Yeah, no wonder!

[alt_neville]

Don't most people by now?

[alt_ron]

OI

[alt_ron]

Nice.

[alt_ron]

They do?

[alt_zacharias]

Yeah, Sue said something about that.

Dead naff, you ask me. Dancing and that.

[alt_neville]

It really isn't that hard, Ron. To ask, I mean.

I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up to No Good

[alt_neville]

Was there somebody you wanted to ask?

Re: I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up to No Good

[alt_ron]

No!

I mean to say, why'd you pick Bones?

[alt_neville]

Uh, yeah, I think so. Susan said her roommates all have dates by now.

[alt_ron]

Right!

Wot he said!

[alt_luna]

Oh, I suppose it all depends on who you're dancing with.

[alt_padma]

Oh, look. Smith said something boorish. And Weasley agreed with him.

And you wonder why neither of you have dates.

Honestly.

[alt_ron]

Even Midgen?

You're having me on.

[alt_gredforge]

And the music. If it were up to us, for example, we'd veto any song by Celestina Warbeck.

[alt_zacharias]

And you think dancing with a poncy little Frog isn't naff?

Re: I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up to No Good

[alt_neville]

Because she's quite nice, really. And I knew she wouldn't laugh at me. I got to know her a bit, since she was roommates with Hannah, you know.

[alt_ron]

What, and you do? Who're you going with?

[alt_zacharias]

Going with Summers, isn't she? She asked him, though, and he didn't have the heart to tell her no.

[alt_ron]

Exactly.

[alt_padma]

Not that it's any of your business, Ronald. But Roger Davies asked me on the last Hogsmeade trip.

[alt_luna]

Not as naff as other things you could do, no.

[alt_luna]

I've done lots of naffier things myself.

[alt_ron]

Hang on there.

What's Luna done to you?

[alt_zacharias]

Who says she's done anything? I'm just asking her a question.

[alt_ron]

Oh.

What's so great about Davies?

[alt_zacharias]

And you're bragging about it?

Daft, you are. This whole ball thing is daft.

Re: I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up to No Good

[alt_ron]

Oh, well.

That's all right then. If you like that sort of thing. Dancing and all, I mean.
