“I TOLD HER THAT I LOVED HER, WAS NOT SURE IF SHE HEARD. THE ROOF WAS PRETTY WINDY AND SHE DIDN’T SAY A WORD. PARTY DYING DOWNSTAIRS, HAD NOTHING LEFT TO DO. JUST ME, HER AND THE MOON.”
On the Pottermore website,

And you literally have to sit there with a straight face while fuckin Todd JingleJangles cleans himself up in the dead quiet room with some stupid ass line like “vanish me poopum” and you just gotta live with the knowledge that some kid just shit himself beside you during a fucking test.
