Debbie said that Lucius Malfoy would probably yell at Draco for being so slow.

Me:

Oh, I agree with Debbie completely. Except maybe he wouldn't yell, but reproach him in that Malfoy drawl so that it sounds even worse than any kind of yelling.

But I wouldn't say that the official consequences of Harry and Co DADA practice on Hogwarts Express will be too high. At Hogwarts everybody constantly got into fights and received 'battle scars' that were fixed, sometimes instantly, sometimes not, by Mme Pomfrey. Remember those two fifth- of sixth-years that had leeks sprouting out their years? I don't think they'd gotten drastic punishments for that - maybe lost some points and got a detention. It's the *wizarding* world - they're dealing with magic, there are bound to be incidents like that. 

OTOH, I'm sure somebody out there (FIE!) is counting up points for all of Harry's... um... deeds, we shall call them. <g> Maybe the points he gets for this little romp will be just what the buffer needs to overflow.

BTW, Debbie, thank you for your kind offer, I really appreciate it, but I think that the mailing process will take so much time that I'll be back in America by the time the book arrives. Oh well... I'll have something to really look forward too.

Regards,

Maria
