After Sunday's meeting, I've been thinking: I wonder if one of us should try testing things out a bit with Madam Headmistress Bumbridge. What exactly is she likely to do if she gets hacked off with one of us? What sorts of punishment are we risking if we run afoul of Her Foulness?
We should try to gauge it so whatever we do isn't too serious, but would give us a good idea of what to expect. I think it had better not be a half-blood, because I don't want to give her that excuse to make additional trouble for whoever's doing the experiment. You two already have a bit of a reputation, whereas my record's more clean. I'm not a Prefect. It's already clear she's not gonna put me in her stupid student organisation, so I wouldn't be burning any bridges there. And I'm not on the Quidditch team, so she can't cut me from that, although she may yank my privileges to broadcast the games. But I'm willing to volunteer.
I'm thinking a Private message. Nothing too incendiary or likely to get us in trouble as regime disloyal, just critical of her, with everything in it arguably true.

I'm still willing to do it.
