Oh my god, everyone, have you read the Prophet? St Mungo's has been attacked again!

[gregory_goyle]

I saw.

[sm_bones]

The Death Eaters are going to kill us all.

[gregory_goyle]

I don't believe that. Even if they win, they'll just kill the people standing in their way.

I intend to stand in their way.

[su_li]

I'm so scared. These Death Eater attacks are getting worse.

[padma]

And so will I.

[padma]

It's okay to be scared, Su.

[gregory_goyle]

It's wise to be scared.

[justharry]

If we fear them, they win.

[gregory_goyle]

You're a fool.

[justharry]

Good. We all should.

[justharry]

I've fought them before. I know what they're capable of.

[malus_fides]

No, you don't.

[sm_bones]

My aunt said that, too.

She's dead.

[gregory_goyle]

You have no reason to be afraid.

But most of us don't have the luxury of being the chosen one, Harry Potter. Most of us are capable of dying because we are human. Your experience is useless to everyone but yourself.

[dean_thomas]

Being brave doesn't mean we can't be afraid.

[gregory_goyle]

This is exactly what I'm saying. Potter says we shouldn't fear at all. Which has nothing whatever to do with bravery.

[gregory_goyle]

I'm sorry.

[louis_thompson]

You're a bloody tosser, Potter. We're kids for Merlin's sake! It's perfectly reasonable for us to be scared.

[su_li]

I'm sorry, Harry. I just— What are we supposed to do?

[su_li]

Thank you, Padma. I—

I'm going to try to be braver like you and Gregory.

[hj_granger]

It's fine to be frightened, Su Li. I'm terrified. But Dean and Gregory were just saying it--being brave and strong doesn't mean we can't feel fear. It means we do the right thing because somebody has to.

[justharry]

We're not just kids! All of us, we're wizards, we can fight. If we took a stand against Voldemort, we would out-number him and his Death Eaters!

[sm_bones]

Everyone's dead. My family. I'm a mudblood. Even if I fight, the only thing I'll be able to hope for is that they'll kill me quickly.

[gregory_goyle]

No. You hope to keep fighting until they are defeated. You hope to protect the people you can still protect.

And you do not call yourself mudblood. We are not mudblood, we are wizards, and we will fight.

[louis_thompson]

Don't say his name!

You really are barmy. You're going to get the whole lot of us murdered.

[padma]

We'll fight together, Su.

[sm_bones]

I'm scared, Greg.

[gregory_goyle]

I know. Me, too.

[justharry]

WE SHOULD SAY HIS NAME.

People get so scared of Voldemort they turn him into a myth, and he's just a man. He can die. He will be defeated.

[blood_traitor]

Private to Greg Goyle

I'm proud of you.

[louis_thompson]

Just remember, Potter, you're just a man, too. I think the rest you can figure out for yourself.

[gregory_goyle]

Private to Professor Snape

Thank you, sir.

[millicent]

I'm starting to think you need to change Houses, with your brave speeches.

[su_li]

You're right, Hermione, and You-Know-Who-- He has to be stopped. Thank you.

[gregory_goyle]

Come with me, Millicent. Together we shall rule Gryffindor and lose all the quidditch matches.

[justharry]

Hey! We have a good team! It's not our fault Ravenclaw's brilliant this year!

[millicent]

We should aim higher than that Let's make our own House.

[gregory_goyle]

But it is quite literally your fault that Gryffindor lost against Slytherin.

[vincent_crabbe]

Actually, I must confess. It was my fault Gryffindor lost the game.

[gregory_goyle]

Goylestrode doesn't sound particularly appealing, Millie.

Also, our house colours would have to be black and black, which isn't terribly festive. What do you suppose our animal would be?

[justharry]

You're right, I am just another bloke, but we're on the right side. If people would just fight instead of hide, maybe the first war would've been it.

[gregory_goyle]

We do appreciate that, Vince. Amazing what a well-placed bludger can do.

[vincent_crabbe]

Your arrogance might not kill you, but it might kill a lot of the people that look up to you.

[millicent]

Mountain troll.

[prof_sprout]

Boys, please remember to keep all disagreements civil.

[louis_thompson]

You arrogant prick. So typical of you to think that your bloody side is the right side. As I said before, you're going to get a whole bunch of people murdered, and I hope your conscience can't bear the weight of that knowledge.

[prof_sprout]

MISTER THOMPSON. That is quite enough. Ten points from Slytherin for your language. A Prefect should handle himself more thoughtfully.

[louis_thompson]

You're right, Professor. I'm terribly sorry.

[hj_granger]

We're going to win. It's going to be hard and it might take a long time, but we're going to win.
