Draco’s  Diary  Journal  

Personal Log, Seventh Year

 

1st Entry

 

Excellent day.  Shanked two Ravenclaws from across the room, abandoned Goyle to subsequent false accusations.  As if he had the necessary skill.

Potter made an utter fool of himself in Charms today according to Pansy, unfortunate I was not there to see it.

Ran into Potter moping along in front of his little friends, who seemed to be ignoring him in favor of each other.  Laughed and mocked properly, left him seething.  Must get Pansy to practice Charm for healing split lip.

 

2nd Entry

 

Boring day; Potter unavailable for tormenting.  Hid away in Charms teacher’s office half the day, scarpered off from meals too fast to catch.  Most annoying.

 

3rd Entry

 

Found Crabbe attempting to do disgusting things to Goyle in a vacant classroom.  Is it spring already?  Deeply need to have memory Obliviated.

Ran into Potter completely by accident; was forced to track him halfway across the castle to do so.  Mudblood girl and weasel were absent, curiously enough.  Taunted him, inquiring after their location, and nearly inspired another Wizard Duel, but he came to his senses in time and stalked off instead.

Couldn’t help but notice that Potter’s hips sway when he stalks.  Very amused.

 

4th Entry

 

Very bad day.  Witty sniping with Potter did not come off as usual, ended up with random passers-by in the corridor butting in on his behalf.  Muggle-born mudbloods all, no doubt.  Quite irritating.

Retired back to dungeons to find Daphne and Pansy and all their giggling friends spring-cleaning and quite fierce; fled to room and tried for nineteenth time to teach Goyle how to play checkers.  Should have given up after ten minutes, but was putting off writing home, so continued for another hour.  Was mildly amused by cheating terribly, having persuaded the checkers into silent loyalty.  Father would be proud.

 

5th Entry

 

Wretched day.  Was deserted by both minions; don’t even want to think what for.  Refuse to venture into any empty rooms unless others go first – rather their delicate eyes seared than mine.

Potter reunited with friends; all sunshine and bubbles.  Sickening.  Thanks to lack of minions, was forced by the crowded corridor to walk behind them and listen to their disgusting babble about that pathetic half-breed Hagrid, the mudblood girl’s favorite classes, which are apparently all of them, she’s appalling, and Potter’s broom’s new ailment, which at least was slightly worth the drivel.

Finally managed to squeeze past them and heard the weasel shout something about “setting foot out of the dungeons without bodyguards.”  Was about to turn on and demolish him when Potter attempted to mimic my earlier mockery, inquiring after their whereabouts.

Smirked darkly and replied that their activities were probably similar to his friends’ when they’d been absent.  Was rewarded with the weasel’s face turning slightly green, the mudblood looking revolted, and Potter completely wordless in shock.  Let them dwell on that picture for the rest of the day.  I’ve certainly spent hours trying to keep it out of my head.

 

6th Entry

 

Rejoined by minions, spent day tailing Potter whenever possible.  Have determined that his hips sway most when angry, plenty when happy, equally much when agitated, and very little when depressed.  Have resolved to seek him out only when he’s depressed, as hip-swaying is distracting.

Fortunately, depression has set in again presently, because friends have taken to “needing alone-time” according to Potter’s whine to Longbottom.  Am free to trail and bother Potter for days until they stop shagging all the time.

Hmm.  May need to convince Blaise to Obliviate again to remove mental picture of weasel and mudblood girl shagging.  Disgusting.

 

7th Entry

 

Crabbe made comment on Potter’s angry hip-swaying today as we tailed him.  Stopped in middle of corridor to give Crabbe lengthy lecture on inappropriateness of oggling Gryffindors, especially that one.  Both minions looked completely confounded, although this is not unusual, and Goyle’s brain was fuddled enough to say that they’d thought that was why we were following Potter.

Minions’ singlemindedness is sickening in spring, and we were late to class.

 

8th Entry

 

Unexpectedly found minions’ presence undesirable when walking through halls today.  Goyle insisted on making wholly unnecessary remarks about Potter’s hips, which was deeply irritating.  Was forced to tell him off, then send both away to keep from dealing with him sulking all day.

Found self considering Potter’s hips all through last class of day, and completely missed review for the approaching preliminary exam.  Father will not be pleased if he finds out, so must copy Blaise’s notes.

 

9th Entry

 

Crabbe made strangely intelligent remark about the likelihood of depressing Potter permanantly by doing certain things to him.  Considering the nature of said things, this should have been less surprising, but it made more sense than expected.

Perhaps this warrants more thought.  Or perhaps I should find a way to separate Crabbe and Goyle in the spring, thus preventing singlemindedness from becoming contagious.

 

10th Entry

 

Singlemindedness is contagious, damn it.  Attempted to copy Blaise’s notes today, found hand sketching Potter’s arse instead.  With additions.  Became unable to think about notes and went out to Quidditch field instead to watch Gryffindors practice and yell advice.  Potter is much better Beater than previously suspected – was forced to ignominous retreat after Bludger nearly broke shoulder.

 

11th Entry

 

Have been unable to determine if oddly persistant slant of thought is the result of spring, like my minions’ and Potter’s sickening friends’, or some slow-acting spell.  If it is some kind of spell, must find the anticharm soon or risk being reduced to intelligence of Crabbe through unrelieved lust.

Not an inviting thought.

Perhaps responsible party is Potter.  Must find a way to get it out of him.

No.  It must be Potter.  Must think how to make him sorry…

--What am I thinking?  I don’t want to shag Potter!

Clearly, whatever the spell is, it’s subtle and very powerful.  Must find the culprit and throttle the counterspell out of

Must bugger Potter until he can’t breathe.

 

12th Entry

 

Have not been to breakfast.  No intention of going to lunch.  Don’t want to try walking.  Told confused minions I’m ill.  Less far wrong than desireable.

Arse hurts.
