The Return of Tom Swift

[Tim Regan]

Hi All,

--- In HPFGU-OTChatter "Caius Marcius" daringly started a thread of 
Tom Swifts that went swimingly:
<Caius'>
> "I skipped my Occlumency lesson again," said Harry absent-mindedly
> "This charm, which I learned from Prof. Lupin, will doubtless 
prove quite difficult for most of you," said Harry patronizingly.
> "A week's detention, Potter," said Umbridge back-handedly.
> "I need a draught of Relaxation," said Hannah Abbott testily.
> "Tarantallegra!" said Dolohov standoffishly
> "Not Potter's Army. Dumbledore's Army," said Dumbledore 
militantly. 
> "I want to escort Harry to King's Cross," said Sirius doggedly. 
> "I see you've met my mother," said Sirius picturesquely. 
> "Doxies have got to be good for something," said Fred jokingly. 
> "And look, Broderick, you've been sent a potted plant," said 
Miriam Strout devilishly
<Pippin's>
> "I'm monitoring the Floo Network," said Umbridge, gratingly.
> "We are not animals," said the Centaur hoarsely.
> "There's something I can't remember," said Snape, pensively.
> "Come on, you can do better than that," said Sirius, finally.
<David's>
> "This light isn't real," said Arthur, sunnily.
> "Detention, Potter," said Umbridge, cuttingly.
> "Oh, and fifty to Ravenclaw for Miss Lovegood," said McGonagall, 
pointedly.
> "Thank you, Mum" said Neville, sweetly.
> "Come on, you can do better than that," said Sirius, archly.
> Snape studied his exam paper, owlishly.
> Fudge gaped at the statue, brainlessly.

And promptly I'll add mine singularly 


"Oh, why don't we have a night off?" said Hermione unpredictably

Cheerily,
