Thank you, Pansy, they're LOVELY. Those were the dress robes I tried on that day, weren't they?
My old robes got utterly ruined at the Quidditch World Cup. I probably could have gotten them clean and repaired them but I couldn't even stand to look at them after. I think I threw them away, and tried not to think about the fact that we were told to bring dress robes this year because we'd need them. I spent about three hours this afternoon wondering if there was ANY way to persuade Mrs Stretton to send me something (and thinking there was probably no way and I'd be better off seeing if Professor Sinistra could help me -- not that I'd want to bother her today, did you hear everyone talking about that article in the gossip magazine? how do you suppose they found out about her and the Razzer? Everyone suspected but they've been very careful not to ever say anything in front of students that would settle the matter.)
Yes! The ones at Malkin's this summer. You just looked so pretty and happy in them, I couldn't not get them for you, could I? I've wanted to give them to you for ages and ages, and I'm so glad you like them.
And I did hear! I mean, I'd suspected for a while, what with all the PMs back and forth between them, and it really is quite sweet, and good on her, but I'm sorry it got spread around in a gossip rag like Dish! instead of having them tell people on their own terms.
They're two of my favourite teachers so I'm happy for them but I agree, it's too bad it got spread around in Dish. It's annoying enough being gossipped about by cows like Patil, never mind the whole Protectorate nosing in.
