Sally-Anne,
Thanks again, for taking me and JP round the village yesterday. It was jolly fun. And don't worry if JP seemed a little distracted. He had fun as well, he's just a bit shy.
I wanted to ask
Well, that is, I hope you shan't be offended but, I think you're awfully clever about things. So I rather wanted to know if
if you thought it would be completely suicidal to ask Miss Lestrange if she'd like to go to the Ball? With me, I mean to say.
Only, I've heard a couple people say Marvolo's meant to ask her. Only I heard a rumour that he doesn't plan to do. And I thought, well, perhaps it would be all right, then.
She's really nothing like her mother, after all, what? But if it would get her into trouble to go with anyone other than Marvolo, well. I bally well don't want that to happen, do I?
I hope you don't think that I'm being rude, asking your opinion about it. I reckon most girls would get upset if a boy asked them about asking someone else. I do quite like you--I mean I enjoy your company, you know. Dash it, that sounds utterly weak, what? I just...I think Hydra might like to go and if Marvolo's really not going to ask her.... Well.
What do you think?

Date: 2011-11-28 05:23 am (UTC)Harry's not planning to ask Hydra. He's got someone else in mind. If he were going to ask Hydra then Hydra would really HAVE to go with him, but since he's not, I think you should
ask herfeel free to ask her.Honestly I think Harry's more likely to take an interest if he realises she's not going to sit around forever waiting and there are other boys out there who've noticed her. And I think she'd really like to go to the Ball and since she's a third year, she'll only get to go if someone asks her. And I think she'd have a very nice time with you.
If she looks like she wants to go but isn't sure she can say yes, you should say you've heard Harry's asking someone else but if he comes back and asks her later and she has to go with him you won't hold it against her.
