Mrs. J.K., Mr. Sinyk, You have my respect, that doesn't stop me from messing around with your stories though, for free of course.

Hermione shook her head: "Luna is fourteen, her birthday is five days after me on 24 of September. I admit we feel comfortable around her. What she said about dreaming of Malfoy's dungeon and Olivander struck a nerve with me. I agree with Daphne, that situation of this morning would never happen with Tracey or Parvati."

She shrugged: "There is one way to find out, Harry, you have to give Luna a snog."

I bit back: "No, Hermione, there are two other ways, one of you can give her a snog. Why would it have to be me?"

Daphne teased: "You are the only male? What can it hurt? She is only two months younger than you, you can ask Luna if she wants it first."

I grumbled: "Shouldn't you work on strengthening your bond? Some snogs? Cop a feel? A hand job? A blowjob?"

23 What do we do with Luna?

Hermione slapped my arm and said: "We can do that tonight, Harry. We better go over our courses so that we don't use OWL or NEWT spells. Silent casting is out too. We better not get caught doing spells we are not supposed to know."

I shrugged: "We can spend a few weeks in the library, and pretend to have learned them faster than normal due to the Soulbond. Wizards are gullible about that."

"We better set our bonding issues aside and concentrate on our courses." commented Daphne, "for the record, I am still not comfortable with snogging Hermione, I mean, I like you a lot Hermione, that I am sure of, but it is the physical stuff that scares me."

Hermione sighed: "It is new to me too, Daphne, having a relationship with a girl never crossed my mind... Actually, it did cross my mind once or twice out of curiosity, not that it would happen in real life."

I took my Transfiguration book out and said: "Safe that discussion for later. Let's start with changing that bird into a Guinea pig."

At lunch, the talk was about Moody and Snape and their replacements, several candidates were nominated, Slughorn and Andromeda Tonks for Potions, although someone mentioned that a squib can brew potions too. That comment got chills running down everyone's spine. For the defense post, there were no candidates, due to the curse.

Fleur followed our discussion and asked: "That curse does exist for real? We took this for a silly rumor to buff up the reputation of Hogwarts."

I asked: "How can a new Dada teacher every year buff up that reputation? I would think it tears it down." I explained, "For almost thirty years we have had a new teacher every year, so the ones we got now are morons or with a death wish. In our first year, we had one who was possessed by the Wraith of Voldemort, in our second year an author that claimed the achievements of others and obliviated them, in our third year we got a werewolf, who was actually a good teacher, and we had a Polyjuiced death eater this year. So not much to brag about, don't you think?"

Luna said dreamily: "The curse is gone, Harry, you destroyed it with the Basilisk venom."

Surprised, I looked at Luna and asked: "Are you sure, honey? We can only hope that it is true, maybe it is time to look for a decent one."
