Curfew is at 9:00 p.m.

[alt_percy]

and there are a few people I can think of whom I hope I will see in a Very. Few. Minutes.

[alt_neville]

I was back on time!

[alt_percy]

I don't believe I saw you in the Common Room at that time, Neville.

[alt_neville]

Me and Ron came in through the portrait hole and nipped up the stairs while your back was turned, so that's why you didn't see us. But we were back at 9:00! I promise!

[alt_gredforge]

Do you mean us?

We've been in the common room the entire evening!

And we've even been quiet. Just for you, so you can get some revising done, it's never to soon to start revising for the N.E.W.T.'s after all...

[alt_percy]

As it so happens, I wasn't looking for you two. For once.

But given that you've pointed out how quiet you've been, now I'm starting to worry. That usually means you're up to something.

[alt_gredforge]

Up to something!

Of course not. We are just being thoughtful and considerate of the needs of your fragile mental state.

[alt_percy]

Who are you, and what have you done with Fred and George?

[alt_gredforge]

We are Gred and Forge!

Aren't you the one who is always telling us to "stop mucking around and put some serious effort into your studies." As soon as we try to follow your advice you get offended. We are wounded by your lack of trust in us. Maybe instead of telling us off all the time you should sit in a corner and contemplate what in life you truly value.

[alt_percy]

Well if I did, it certainly wouldn't be trying to be a Prefect responsible for you lot.

[alt_ron]

Oh, so you're sorry about being a Prefect now?

[alt_gredforge]

Why, we didn't know you felt that way! You should resign the post immediately, turning it over to someone better suited to the job, and devote yourself to breeding cornish pixies.

[alt_percy]

ANYONE who tries to be responsible for Fred and George would end up sorry.

[alt_arthur]

Oh, I wouldn't go quite that far, son.

[alt_ron]

Or jabbering jarvies.

[alt_bill]

Or dragons! Charlie could teach him a thing or two...

[alt_percy]

Now there've been times I wouldn't have minded offering the twins to a dragon as a little midnight snack or something.

[alt_arthur]

I think your mum would object, my dear boy.

[alt_percy]

Too bad.
