Ginny took the bundle and opened it. Inside was what looked like a pile of fabric - swath after swath of glowing blue-green cloth. She held it up. It was a dress, with an ornate bodice of green and gold embroidery. "You want me to wear this?"
"No, I want you to bake it in a pie." Hermione shook her head irritably. "Yes, I want you to wear it. I need you to go to talk to Tom for me. The prettier you look, the more likely you'll melt his little black heart and he'll give you what you want."
"You want me to ask him to call off the ceremony," Ginny said. "He'll never do it, Hermione."
"That doesn't matter." Hermione shook her head slowly. "I don't want you to ask him to call it off. I want you to make absolutely sure it happens."
Hermione rolled her eyes. "That's what he says. The truth is, he practically slavers when he looks at you. Its' sick, it's disgusting - and we're going to use it to our advantage." She held out the bundle she was carrying to Ginny. "Put this on."
"Can you describe the individual?"
"He was about medium height and had a beard."
"Was this a male, or a female?"
"I told my psychiatrist that everyone hates me. He said I was being ridiculous - everyone hasn't met me yet."

"Infancy: n. The period of our lives when, according to Wordsworth, 'Heaven lies about us.' The world begins lying about us pretty soon afterward."
"Laughter, n. An interior convulsion, producing a distortion of the features and accompanied by inarticulate noises. It is infectious and, though intermittent, incurable."
"Learning, n: The kind of ignorance distinguishing the studious."
"Liberty, n: One of imagination's most precious possessions."
Men come to London full of bright prospects. I have seen them leave complete wreaks through their habit of answering letters.
The duration of his stay was governed by his ability to survive without a cigarette.
"Come for a talk on Sunday evening. I have so little time left now-I really must drown myself in a week or two-life is quite too much for me."
"To say 'mither' instead of 'mother' seems to many the acme of romance. There are others who are not quite so ready to believe in the pathos of provincialisms."
"Can you imagine spending life after life in Naples?"
"Oh, no. The food is too bad."
"Am I not the ugliest woman in Paris, Mr. Wilde?"
"In the world, Madame."
"I can't use sex to get what I want. I'm a teenager. Sex is what I want."
