... "All right," George said briskly, closing OoP with a snap. "Our 
work here is finished. But there is always hope, brothers and 
sisters, there is always hope. P.I.N.E. exists no more, and we must 
accept it. But now we have something better: 'P.I.E. -– Percy. Is. 
Evil. After all, that's the way Percy would have wanted it..."

"That's right, George," said Fred with an expression of mock 
sorrow. "And don't forget to join us tomorrow for F.I.E.'s long-
awaited wake, to be followed by a quiet and speedy ceremony, out of 
respect for the FIE loyalists who are still living and writing 
amongst us."

"Ahh, sorry folks, but it's true," chuckled George. "Not only did the 
our illustrious minister *not* depart for the graveyard in GoF, which 
indicates that he's not a Death Eater -"

"- but we also know now that Fudge wasn't actually in league with 
Voldemort during OoP either... he was simply too self-absorbed, and a 
*touch* too paranoid about Dumbledore. Maybe he was spending a little 
too much time in the Leaky Cauldron with Lucius Malfoy as well..."

"But he turned 'round in the end, didn't he, Fred?" said George.

"That's right, he did. We now know for sure that Fudge Is Not Evil -"

"- and that's F.I.N.E. by me," quipped George. Then, lowering his 
breath and eyeing the crowd carefully, he muttered "...doesn't change 
the fact that he's a blustery old codger... Cheers, and g'day!" ;-)

And they vanished in a loud CRACK!
