[Bias? What bias? There's no bias here, he doesn't know what you're talking about.
But say there was bias. That's what you get when you're such a good student and friend of the family. It's hard not to be biased when that's a thing. But again that's only hypothetical, because he's totally not being biased here.]
Well I'll have my fingers crossed that they'll say yes. If not, that'd be a real shame. Why would they, though? It's Christmas. Everyone's in a giving spirit at Christmas. It's like the best time to ask for a load of junk.
It isn't a matter of the time of year, it's the cost, sir. My father may work for the Ministry but we live to our means, and there are three older brothers who will inevitably be thought of before me when it comes to him.
I'm certainly not bitter about it, but I've become used to not always getting the things I want.
Well good, because I've had a lot of experience dealing with it.
But this ain't about me, this is about you. Just out of curiosity, any particular broom you've had your eye on? Y'know, just so I can give you my expert opinion and stuff.
Oh yeah, you really can't go wrong with a Nimbus. I mean, obviously the later model is always gonna be the best, y'know? But even the older Nimbus models are pretty good. The Nimbus line in general is one of my favorites.

[Well. That just settles things, doesn't it? Oh yes.]
Don't worry too much about it, I'm sure everything will work out.
I understand the whole bitter-not-bitter thing all too well, y'know. Trust me.
