    “Fred and George, however, found all this very funny. They went out of
    their way to march ahead of Harry down the corridors, shouting, "Make way for
    the Heir of Slytherin, seriously evil wizard coming through ......

    Percy was deeply disapproving of this behavior.

    "It is not a laughing matter," he said coldly.

    "Oh, get out of the way, Percy," said Fred. "Harry's in a hurry."

    "Yeah, he's off to the Chamber of Secrets for a cup of tea with his fanged
    servant," said George, chortling.

    Ginny didn't find it amusing either.

    "Oh, don't," she wailed every time Fred asked Harry loudly who he was
    planning to attack next, or when George pretended to ward Harry off with a large
    clove of garlic when they met.”

    “Harry!" said Fred, elbowing Percy out of the way and bowing deeply. "Simply splendid to see you, old boy-"
    "Marvelous," said George, pushing Fred aside and seizing Harry's hand in turn. "Absolutely spiffing."
    Percy scowled.
    "That's enough, now," said Mrs. Weasley.
    "Mum!" said Fred as though he'd only just spotted her and seizing her hand too. "How really corking to see you-”

    “Have you ever seen anything quite as pathetic?" said Malfoy. "And he’s supposed to be our teacher!"
    Harry and Ron both made furious moves toward Malfoy, but Hermione got there first - SMACK!
    She had slapped Malfoy across the face with all the strength she could muster. Malfoy staggered. Harry, Ron, Crabbe, and Goyle stood flabbergasted as Hermione raised her hand again.
    "Don’t you dare call Hagrid pathetic you foul—you evil—"
    "Hermione!" said Ron weakly and he tried to grab her hand as she swung it back.
    "Get off Ron!"
    Hermione pulled out her wand. Malfoy stepped backward. Crabbe and Goyle looked at him for instructions, thoroughly bewildered.
    "C’mon," Malfoy muttered, and in a moment, all three of them had disappeared into the passageway to the dungeons.
    "Hermione!" Ron said again, sounding both stunned and impressed.”

    “Who're you going with, then?" said Ron.
    "Angelina," said Fred promptly, without a trace of embarrassment.
    "What?" said Ron, taken aback. "You've already asked her?"
    "Good point," said Fred. He turned his head and called across the common room, "Oi! Angelina!"
    Angelina, who had been chatting with Alicia Spinnet near the fire, looked over at him.
    "What?" She called back.
    "Want to come to the ball with me?"
    Angelina gave Fred a sort of appraising look.
    "All right, then," she said, and she turned back to Alicia and carried on chatting with a bit of a grin on her face.
    "There you go," said Fred to Harry and Ron, "piece of cake.”

    Prized far beyond the rest;
    For Ravenclaw, the cleverest

    Loved those of great ambition.”

    “You guessed? You must have been pretty sure, considering you could have killed me."
    "I was ninety percent sure."
    "I see," Clary said. There must have been something in her voice, because he turned to look at her. Her hand cracked across his face, a slap that rocked him back on his heels. He put his hands on his cheek, more in surprise than pain.
    "What the hell was that for?"
    "The other ten percent.”

    “Jace?"
    "Yeah?"
    "How did you know I had Shadowhunter blood? Was there some way you could tell?"
    The elevator arrived with a final groan. Jace unlatched the gate and slid it open. The inside reminded Clary of a birdcage, all black metal and decorative bits of gilt. "I guessed," he said, latching the door behind them. "It seemed like the most likely explanation."
    "You guessed? You must have been pretty sure, considering you could have killed me."
    He pressed a button in the wall, and the elevator lurched into action with a vibrating groan that she felt all through the bones in her feet. "I was ninety percent sure."
    "I see," Clary said.
    There must have been something in her voice, because he turned to look at her. Her hand cracked across his face, a slap that rocked him back on his heels. He put a hand to his cheek, more in surprise than pain. "What the hell was that for?"
    The other ten percent," she said, and they rode the rest of the way down to the street in silence.”

    “But-" Maia, still looking at Alec and Magnus, broke off and rasied her eyebrows. Simon turned to see what she was looking at - and stared.
    Alec had his arms around Magnus and was kissing him full on the mouth. Magnus, who appeared to be in a state of shock, stood frozen. Several groups of people - Shadowhunters and Downworlders alike - were staring and whispering. Glancing to the side, Simon saw the Lightwoods, their eyes widen, gaping at the display. Maryse had her hand over her mouth.
    Maia looked perplexed. "Wait a second," she said. "Do we all have to do that, too?”

    “Sebastian just smiled. “I could hear your heart beating,” he said softly. “When you were watching me with Valentine. Did it bother you?”
    “That you seem to be dating my dad?” Jace shrugged. "You’re a little young for him, to be honest.”
    “What?” For the first time since Jace had met him, Sebastian seemed flabbergasted.”

    “Is there some particular reason that you're here?" ...
