Re: I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up To No Good

I think you're right, that I wouldn't be likely to get in.

But I still want to try.

Been thinking...I could sort of spin it like I'm eager to prove that I'm loyal. Because of my parents. That might be a reason they'd want to take me, wouldn't it?

The thing is, though, I'd have to be showing it, and I'm not sure I have the stomach for that. Sucking up to some people I don't like and talking down other people that I do like. Making people believe that I think I'm better just because I'm a pureblood. It might even mean treating some of us here on this lock differently in public, when it isn't just us. I just don't know if I could be a convincing enough actor, or even if I could live with myself for doing that.
