And.. and did Dylan need assistance? Keeping that Patronus? She still didn't trust any of the adults' ones as much as his. "Dylan.. your snitches.." Sniff. "You caught three against Aidan, remember? This term, the one in the middle of the pitch? And another by Kat's goalposts and that last one when you guys crashed into Penelope.." Quidditch stats were helping, right? "And those ones against us, near the hoops when you had to dive? And.. and again really high up in the air, there was one I couldn't see.. and that one that went all around the stadium.."

And Oakey! Was he going to share his candy or what? "Did you HEAR your Head Boy? If you aren't a student leader, EVACUATE. LEAVE NOW. I CAN STILL USE MY TEETH WHEN DEMENTORS ARE AROUND." Just saying.

She rubbed at her eyes and tried not to look like she was crying, because she totally wasn't. Really.
