Exam Week

[alt_sally_anne]

I have been having a lot of trouble revising, but exam week has mostly been going okay. I guess I'd done enough work beforehand that I mostly remembered everything, at least in the classes with a practical component. I don't know about History of Magic. I was very happy with how the Runes project turned out, at least.

I am especially glad that the Dark Arts exam is over.

Professor Slughorn, if it's possible I would like to stop by your office to talk when you are not busy with exams. I am hoping you can give me advice regarding next year.

I feel a little silly now -- Daphne told me that Draco gave the signal and she was just about to start screaming. We had a plan, you see, in case things started to go pear-shaped in that class again. It was Daphne's job to create a distraction or, if Daphne was the one in the soup, it was my job.

So, Draco and Daphne and most of the rest of my house had my back and I didn't even think about it until later.

I don't know. I'm still going to talk to Professor Slughorn about dropping Dark Arts.

Wait.

The cunning Slytherin plan was for Daphne Greengrass to start screaming?

And you don't think that might have sent Miss Professor Marrowbone off her nut? She'd probably have started cursing everyone in sight! Though maybe she'd have started with Greengrass, and you could have jumped behind Goyle or under a table or something.

Or run away.

Well it wasn't JUST for Daphne to scream. She was going to scream that a rat had escaped, jump on her desk, and then pretend to faint. So we'd have people running around and looking for the rat, and we'd have people fussing over Daphne, and the idea was to disrupt things completely and give me time to get out (and yes, I was supposed to get behind Vince or Greg, though I don't think they were looking at Draco so I'm not sure they would have remembered this was part of the plan.)
