Jun. 5th, 2009 08:06 pmWell detention wasn't too bad.
Professor Slughorn had me spend most of the afternoon doing inventory in his supply cabinet, he said it was a chore he didn't much care for. So I weighed beetle eyes and flobberworm pus and counted things like whiplace pods and turtle shells. And it really was dull and I was indoors on a nice afternoon when everyone else was celebrating the end of exams. Then he had me deliver a bunch of things that needed to go to other professors. There were a set of silver flasks that needed to go to the hospital wing, I took those first. And then another set of flasks to Mr Lupin's cottage, he told me when he took them that they were for repelling creatures from the gardens and things like that and also there was one for healing injured pets, he has someone's owl who got sick and this was like the owl equivalent of pepper-up potion.
And then he had me take something down to the house-elves which actually made them a little cross, I think they thought they could have come and fetched it themselves.
And then one big silver flask to Professor Macnair and he was even crosser than the house-elves and acted like I'd burst in on him in the loo or something. I knocked and waited for him to open the door and anyway all he was doing was practicing the tinwhistle. I didn't know he liked music and he didn't sound bad, I don't know why he acted like I'd seen him doing something horribly embarrassing.
Now Pansy and I are going to Draco's party. The question I'm wondering is whether grapefruit tastes like grapes? There isn't a lot so I don't know if I'll get to taste it but I expect it does because why else would it be called that?
