This will keep the trolls away!!!!!

This past week has been very crazy, but the best part of it was this morning, right after breakfast, we found this dog by the lake.  We can't decide what we want to name him, so does anyone else have any ideas? It doesn't belong to anyone else does it?

You cannot be seriously be thinking of keeping that wretched thing.

[alt_gredforge]

Well of course we are!

All he needs is a little bit of love.

(and a few square meals and a bath, but that's beside the point...)

[alt_percy]

All it needs is a rope tied around its neck with a rock tied to the other end and a lake to throw it in.

Fortunately, the lake is handy.

[alt_gredforge]

Watch it Perce, or we might try that with you. With your big head, we wouldn't even need the rock because you'd sink right to the bottom.

Of course, the squid would probably just chuck you right back, charmer that you are.

Oh, ha ha, very funny.

Dogs aren't allowed anyway. Familiars allowed at Hogwarts include cats, owls or toads. Not dogs. Especially not miserable, mangy mutts like that one.

[alt_gredforge]

And how, exactly, are you going to stop us from keeping it?

[alt_percy]

I'm sure Professor MacNair will insist that you follow the rules.

[alt_gredforge]

How will he find out?

And why should he care?

[alt_percy]

He'll find out because I'll tell him myself, if you try to bring it into the castle.

Rules are rules.

[alt_gredforge]

Fine, you do that.

In the meantime, what do you think a good name would be?

[alt_percy]

And he is our Head of House, in case you've forgotten.
