Now that the first flush of mortification has worn off I've almost found the laughter myself, but -- goodness. I'm less concerned with Miss Lovegood -- and actually, now that I'm aware of the source of the confusion, her essay makes a slight bit more sense, although honestly, I haven't the faintest idea how her mind works and I shudder to think at what she will make of the actual reading -- so much as the fact I shall clearly never hear the end of this from Lyoushka and Narcissa. If Barty weighs in the situation will turn utterly hopeless. I am already fearing tomorrow's owl post. It's not common sense and alcohol I'm in need of so much as a gag for Lyoushka and Narcissa...
A quick skim through the pile awaiting marking turned up two others who appear to have suffered the same confusion, or I would have allowed the matter to die a peaceful death. I am the last person in the world to serve as confessor on that particular topic, as well, so I will take you up on your offer and deflect any inquiries in your direction, and hope something else happens quickly to distract everyone's attention as quickly as possible!
(I haven't the faintest idea how I will possibly be able to meet anyone's eyes in class tomorrow.)
As to the rest: yes, next week. Having just had such a vivid reminder of the need for discretion myself...
