    “There was a clatter as the basilisk fangs cascaded out of Hermione's arms. Running at Ron, she flung them around his neck and kissed him full on the mouth. Ron threw away the fangs and broomstick he was holding and responded with such enthusiasm that he lifted Hermione off her feet.
    "Is this the moment?" Harry asked weakly, and when nothing happened except that Ron and Hermione gripped each other still more firmly and swayed on the spot, he raised his voice. "OI! There's a war going on here!"
    Ron and Hermione broke apart, their arms still around each other.
    "I know, mate," said Ron, who looked as though he had recently been hit on the back of the head with a Bludger, "so it's now or never, isn't it?"
    "Never mind that, what about the Horcrux?" Harry shouted. "D'you think you could just --- just hold it in, until we've got the diadem?"
    "Yeah --- right --- sorry ---" said Ron, and he and Hermione set about gathering up fangs, both pink in the face.”

    Ron and Hermione both roared with laughter. Harry ignored them.
    What did you tell her?"
    I told her it's a Hungarian Horntail," said Ginny, turning a page of the newspaper idly. "Much more macho."
    Thanks," said Harry, grinning. "And what did you tell her Ron’s got?"
    A Pygmy Puff, but I didn’t say where.”

    "Snag?" said Fudge, his voice still vibrating with joy. "I see no snag, Dumbledore!"
    "Well," said Dumbledore apologetically, "I'm afraid I do."
    "Oh, really?"
    "Well it's just that you seem to be labouring under the delusion that I am going to -- come quietly. I am afraid I am not going to come quietly at all, Cornelius. I have absolutely no intention of being sent to Azkaban. I could break out, of course -- but what a waste of time, and frankly, I can think of a whole host of things I would rather be doing.”

    “For instance, this new idea that You-Know-Who can kill with a single glance from his eyes. That’s a basilisk, listeners. One simple test: Check whether the thing that’s glaring at you has got legs. If it has, it’s safe to look into its eyes, although if it really is You-Know-Who, that’s still likely to be the last thing you ever do.”

He's not sexy. But he was, and she was staring at him like a fool. "wow" she whispered (.....)"Wow, huh?" His voice was low, husky. His chair creaked as he stood. His footsteps seemed strangely loud as he closed the couple yards between them. Then he was beside her. "I can work with wow”

    “Did you know that wasn’t me, the other Max?” I asked.
    “Yeah.”
    “When?”
    “Right away.”
