YOU WATCH WITH A BLANK LOOK AS FILCH PUTS UP ANOTHER RULE, THE LADDER NOT SO STURDY AND WOBBLING AS HE REACHES THE TOP.
the ladder rocks as he hammers the nail holding the frame into the wall, you all glance backwards as thunder strikes.
you purse your lips at the new rule,
'dolores jane umbridge has replaced dumbledore as head of hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry'
everything had yet again gone downhill.
all the paintings were being removed from the walls (with high objection from them, of course) and being stored who knows where. all the rules were also being read aloud from speakers in every inch of the castle.
you almost wonder if staying with the dursleys would be better. scratch that. it probably would be better.
the doors heading out of hogwarts had also been locked.
and everyone involved with dumbledore's army now had a long detention ahead of them.
you grit your teeth, writing the same words over, hissing slightly in pain as the words engrave themselves into your hand. umbridge looked utterly pleased with herself, sitting up the front in a golden chair.
as the detention was finally over, everyone held their hands in pain, muttering and mumbling, glaring and pushing passed cho as they walked by.
you flex your hand in an attempt to lessen the stinging sensation.

"YOU DID EVERYTHING YOU COULD. NO ONE CAN WIN AGAINST THAT OLD HAG"
you run your tongue over your teeth.
"even dumbledore couldn't see this coming" hermione agrees.
you had your usual outfit on, except with long black socks and the coat mrs. weasley got you overtop.
"harry, if it's anyone's fault, it's ours"
"yeah, we talked you into it"
you all stop.
"yeah, but i agreed. i tried so hard to help, and all it's done is made things worse"
you shake your head, "you did help harry. did you see everyone's faces when you were teaching them stuff they will never learn again if umbridge stays at the school? they loved it, harry. just because it didn't turn out well in the end doesn't mean the overall outcome was useless. everyone can now cast a patronus, can't they? neville can expelliarmus someone! he would have - no offense to neville - never have learnt to do that without your help, harry. don't underestimate yourself or make yourself feel bad just because umbridge ended up finding out. because everyone came out of it with something, didn't they?"
