Right. I'm coming to you two in confidence because you always seem to know everything that's going on in the Tower.

Patil, you and I already talked about the importance of keeping secrets secret. Avery and I spoke to the Prefects and I thought we put an end to breaches of confidentiality. But since then, someone obviously talked to a reporter about Professor Sinistra and Professor Raz. And I know that someone else told about the dragons being the first task. Now, I've learned that our Beauxbatons guests know about the CCF project Professor Sinistra asked us to help organise with regard to the Ball.

You both ought to recall that Professor Sinistra instructed the CCF specifically to keep our efforts quiet. Even though few students entered the year with much in the way of social graces, it's beyond embarrassing to make that clear to half the wizarding world. And while it's true Beauxbatons are living just outside our quarters, that's no reason to be careless. I should have thought Ravenclaw more than capable of protecting Hogwarts' reputation.

Now, I know one or the other of you have got to have some idea who might be blabbing. I want to know who. And...I'd consider it a personal favour if you'd tell me what you know.

You don't have to reply here or anything. If you'd rather come and talk to me in person that's fine. I hope to hear from you, though, so we can put a stop to these leaks.

Hello, again!

I really only want to update the cast of Liberation, but this is the quickest way to get a message to all of you.

First up, again, thanks and my apologies for leaving out Dean Thomas (Y3) from the original cast list. As you all learned on Sunday, he's agreed to undertake the role of Mr Dolohov.

Next, I think we've approached everyone we had on our list to act as an understudy. Please remember, if you've agreed to understudy, it's your responsibility to keep track of the blocking (i.e., movement) for that character (as well as your own), and to be working on the lines in case you're needed. We certainly don't want to lose our fine cast members, but we don't want you to be caught out short, either, if you're called to serve. For those of you who have been assigned understudies, we expect you to help them out. It's not a comment on your ability or our confidence in you; it's merely a precaution since your roles are so pivotal that they can't be replaced at a moment's notice.

Which brings me to my next announcement. As I said, we don't want to lose people, but it's bound to happen: a few students have already left the cast. Vesta Chambers, Elizabeth Stevens and Octavia Anderson have all decided to drop out for personal reasons. As there are so few boys already participating, we really wanted to bring up one of the lads from the Wizengamot chorus to play Vesta's part, so I hope you'll all welcome and congratulate Mr Linus Moon, who will now be our Mr Selwyn!

Finally, as I mentioned on Sunday, we really could use a few more wizards in the Wizengamot - especially with Moon moving up. First- through third-year YPL boys, I'm looking at you in particular! I know you've heard the rumours about wearing makeup, but it's not like that at all. All actors wear some to be seen under the lights. There's no truth whatsoever to the idea that men who are theatrical are all, erm, effeminate. Please consider joining this effort and supporting your fellow YPL members in the project!

On a Prefect note: Whoever jinxed Mr Corner yesterday, you're not helping.
