Daphs, that's excellent you got Auror Crouch. Really brilliant. And Draco, Scrimgeour should be a good role. Really distinguished and commanding. I can totally see why they thought to cast you for him.

And Harry! We'll make awesome traitors together, mate. Sirius Black, though. Phew! You must've been brilliant to land that. We'll have to practice being villains. Maybe I ought to grow a mustache for Shacklebolt. What do you think?

Guess not everyone was as pleased with their parts.

And then there are the ones that are too dim to have noticed they should be embarrassed. Can you see Weasley over there? Looks pleased to bits. Ha!

I don't imagine Baddock can tell me much about the traitor Shacklebolt, though. And really, no one could except one of the teachers. It's not like anyone would admit it if their parents used to have Dumbledore and his bloodtraitors to dinner on Sundays.

You're right, though. It's tricky putting on a play about stuff that happened to people's parents. None of us can remember much of it. Even the seventh years. Of course, now we're old enough to understand, and this is a brilliant way to get us to learn about what happened and the reasons for it. So much better than any lecture Binns would give. Not that he ever talks about anything that happened in the last hundred years.

Just wait and see if you're not bowled over by my rakish good looks when I've shaved for the part. Daphne says it'll be dashing.

You should do a presentation for YPL sometime about your traditions and the dances. That would be really interesting. And there's no substitute for good posture: it's the mark of good breeding.

Luckily, it sounds as if the business with Weasley is the least of your part.

Well, if you're serious about shaving your head, you know some people who know the charm for it.
