I'm really pretty excited about the goats, but I have to wonder why we Hufflepuffs are each being assigned one, too. I know Professor Mercer is head of Ravenclaw, so that makes sense, but us? It's not a bad thing at all, I'm just curious about it.

Thanks!

I talked to the Headmaster about it... It's kind of a support group, I guess? No, that's not right...

I want to try to help kids who get in trouble a lot.

[pause]

So you're starting a support group.

[pause]

How is that going to help them with anything?

I really think a lot of people who get into trouble have problems they're trying to deal with, you know?

And... This is the first time anyone's really given me responsibility. I really don't want to let Headmaster Dumbledore down. I actually want him to be proud of me.

Right. I guess that is possible.

However, it's also possible that a lot of people get into trouble because they're deceitful prats with no redeeming features and this ideas is doomed to miserable failiure. But you're going to go through with it anyway, so good luck!

...You're not a deceitful prat with no redeeming features, though.

[A pause.]

And you're my example, sort of.

Thanks for the good luck, though. We'll both need it. Because you're helping me, right?

How am I supposed to be helping with this? By acting as your case study? Are you sure this is a good idea?

[pause]

I might be a deceitful prat with no redeeming features.

No. Not my case study, Tulio. You'd help me; co-lead the thing. You understand, you know? Where they're coming from.

You're not. I mean, you're a deceitful prat, but you're not only that.

You want me to co-lead a support group for deceitful prats with no redeeming features?

Well, I think I can safely say that nobody has ever asked me to do anything like this before.
