Has Lavender Brown gone completely mad?

[alt_sally_anne]

She just came running into the Potions dungeon. Blaise started to take the mickey like maybe she'd forgotten where she was supposed to be (we had Potions with Gryffindor LAST year, we're with the Hufflepuffs this year!) and she started laughing this really wild laugh. And then she used the hover charm to pick up the cup of slug juice on Blaise's desk and drop it into the potion on Professor Slughorn's desk. The potion does call for slug juice but you're supposed to put it in a drop at a time. You definitely don't want to put it all in at once, just so you know, but fortunately it explodes UP not OUT so no one got any on them.

Professor Slughorn was furious and he's usually pretty even-tempered. He took twenty points from Gryffindor and gave her detention but she ran off before he could say when and where.

Then once she was gone he started to realise something must really be wrong, I think, because that's not like Lavender. Or anyone, really. WHO acts like that?!?

I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up To No Good

And Professor Slughorn looked at me and Pansy after she left like he thought maybe we had something to do with it but we DIDN'T. We didn't do ANYTHING to Lavender. Or anyone else this week.

Er. That's not good, is it? That he suspects you first of anybody.

D'you think he knows about the Rune?

No, that's not it. He just knows we can't stand Patil. I think he might also have suspected later about the incident in Potions class last

Well anyway, he knows I don't much like Lavender either.

PERKS IS A BERK, NEVER SHIRKS, TOO MUCH WORK!

Lavender, I think you need to go see Madam Pomfrey.

Nobody I know. Well maybe the Weasley twins. But Lav is a wet blanket. Not that I talk to her much.

[alt_sally_anne]

Well she's certainly not acting like a wet blanket today.

Did you see where Sandoval called her Peeves? Did you know Peeves could take people over? Because I didn't!

[alt_harry]

I didn't either. That's really scary.
