Do you guys realize Gryffindor is in negative points? What the heck have you guys been doing? Does anyone even care about making your House look good anymore? [Well, sure, she'd gotten detention before school was even in session but-- a teacher had called her dumb!]

Seriously, was staying with Hufflepuffs really that hard or something? Knock it off, or I'll give you something to lose points over.

Oh, I'm sorry? Did I have to vocally tell you that I have flown before? That I took Flying first year and have friends who enjoy the sport so it would be an obvious activity one would partake in during their Summers or when they wanted to enjoy their time with friends?
Is that what you're getting at?
Yes! I have flown. I have played! You now know. How dare I not be upfront.

Hey, you were the one so desperate to prove yourself. Frankly I don't give a crap if you play or not, it's been obvious since the beginning that you don't think much of it.

[seeringlight]

You're correct in that I don't care who wins. As long as my friends enjoy themselves than I'm glad it's around.
You're the one who seems to act like points are such a huge deal.
I believe almost all of us are in the negative, mind you.
Although, I'm curious as to how many people it took to pull that off now.

Uh, yeah, because I have pride in my housemates and our team, unlike everyone else lately it seems like.

And I somehow manage to get decent marks on top of that, it's like I'm superhuman or something.

I don't see how negative points mean your House or team are not people you can hold with pride. It seems the current year is rather turbulent to say the least.
Could it be you're a superhero in the making? Do you hold a secret alter ego in which you fly off precariously into the night to do the good deeds others can never amount too? How on Earth do you put the time to keep the wizarding world safe while still acting as a student and fellow peer.

You are like terminally bad at following conversations, aren't you? I said I do have pride in my house. Which means I want them to do well. Which means they need to stop doing stupid stuff and getting caught and getting us all into the negatives. And maybe give a crap about their housemates in return.

[seeringlight]

That's not what I meant. Negative points are just numbers that you're making a fairly big deal out of. If you think they're completely fine people, points or not, then I don't see why you need to commandeer them to stop their actions. We're allowed to make mistakes and learn from them. You cannot learn without doing so. That is the point of receiving negative points, I assume.
Also, that's a fairly dumb implication. Just because they rack up negative points, don't mean they don't actually care for their housemates. What a silly implication, honestly.
All you actually care about is winning.
