Oh, now you've dented my pride. And here I was secretly cherishing the hope that Bea had taken to me so well that she had bestowed the unicorn on me like a lady bestowing her favour to her chosen knight. Guess Charlie's right: she's a flirt at heart!
As for Percy: I do love him, but he's as stubborn as any Weasley, and I have rarely met anyone so resistant to the urgings of good sense. He's being quite firm in his determination to wreak havoc with his own life, the prat. I was ready to throttle him out of sheer exasperation at around 3:00 in the morning, until Charlie took over.
Oh, well. At least he's done snivelling for now, I hope, and with luck, he'll sleep late. Merlin knows I put enough Calming Draught in his tea to be sure of it.
