I am sure that everyone was very interested by today's announcement.

I look forward to seeing where Headmistress Umbridge leads our school.

This is going to be dire.

Ghastly.

Appalling.

We need to do something.

Yeah, that worked really well for Sophie Fleet and her mum.

If you've got any specific ideas feel free

Like what?

Feed her to the squid.

I hear the lake is invigorating this time of year.

That's probably why she cancelled dueling club.

She knows how many of us would actually rather like to kill her.

There are loads of people who are unhappy about this. Very hacked off and clever people.

I don't have an answer now. But you can bet that a lot of people are going to be putting their heads together on this. Not just us, not just the kids carrying the galleons.

Although. It might be a reason to give galleons to more people. Especially since most people can't use private messages safely much anymore.

Who else do you want to give a galleon to?

Other half-bloods, certainly; they need the protection of being able to speak freely anonymously. But not just them, either. Because we need all the students pulling together, treating each other as if blood status doesn't matter. Because it shouldn't.

Well. Of the other Slytherins in my year I could see giving one to Daphne except I don't think we could really trust Blaise and I don't think we could give one to Daphne and NOT Blaise. I couldn't really see giving one to Milli, even though she's one of the other half-bloods -- she's utterly dense, I just don't know if she's reliable. There's no way I'd give one to Teddy, Vince, or Greg. Draco and Harry already have them.

Daphne's one of the 'model students' but she doesn't like Umbridge at all. She just knows that if someone loathsome but powerful likes you, it's certainly going to be to your advantage if they continue to like you. Blaise, though -- I just don't think we can chance Blaise finding out that Hermione also has a coin.

Hmmm...I'd like my brother Ed to have one, but I worry that he's too much of hothead.

Thinking about Hufflepuff, I could sound out Ernie a bit. Or even Cedric.
