Classroom

Arriving in the classroom, you find it packed with people preparing for next lesson. Your attention is drawn to two people: Hermione Granger, your long-time rival, and Tom Riddle, a handsome but slightly creepy Slytherin boy. Who do you speak to?

Tom Riddle

Tom Riddle: "Oh, this is a surprise. I didn't take you for studying-more-than-necessary sort."

Hey, I enjoy studying! Nope, I just came to annoy you!

Tom Riddle

Tom Riddle: ...Is that right? Then why are you bothering me?"

I just wanted to talk to you... Because I felt like it. Deal with it.

Tom Riddle

Tom Riddle: "Annoy me? Why, do you not like me?"

Nope, I don't like you at all!

Tom Riddle

Tom Riddle: "Well, here I am. Get on with it."

Will you go to Hogsmeade with me this weekend? Oh, never mind, then!

Tom Riddle

Tom Riddle: "Please. I know you better than that. Tell me the truth."

I needed to speak with you, idiot!

Tom Riddle

Tom Riddle: "Hogsmeade? I suppose I could spare the time. There are some...objects I need to look for, anyway."

SUCCESS!

Tom Riddle

Tom Riddle: "Are you trying to get on my nerves? I order you to tell me!"

Fine! Go to Hogsmeade with me this weekend!

Hermione

Hermione: "Oh, hello there. It's good to see that someone here is taking their studies seriously. I presume you've already finished the homework, right?"

Yes, of course! Not yet, can I copy yours?

Hermione

Hermione: "Good. I expected nothing less of you, of course. Now, what can I help you with?"

Uh... Are you free at all this weekend, maybe...? It's nothing, sorry... I just got lost...

Hermione

Hermione: "How dare you! I'm telling Professor McGonagall immediately!"

No wait, I was just joking! Of course I've finished it!

Hermione

Hermione: "Free this weekend? Hmm... Well, I was looking forward to writing the Potions essay, but I suppose I can do that tonight. Why do you ask?"

Oh, great! Let's go to Hogsmeade together, then! Uh, I can't remember...

Hermione

Hermione: "Oh really? I can tell you want to say something. Why are you acting so strangely all of a sudden?"

Haha, you're right. The thing is...

Hermione

Hermione: "Hogsmeade? It completely slipped my mind. Fine, I'll go with you - I need to pick up the new textbooks, anyway."

SUCCESS!

Hermione

Hermione: "You can't remember? What is the matter with you today?"

Oh right! That's it! Hogsmeade!

Dormitory

Arriving in the dormitory, you are shocked to see James Potter and Lily Evans there together, along with Severus Snape dangling upside down in the air. Who do you ask to explain?

James

James: ...Oh, hey. What are you doing here? Don't you have lessons?"

Nah, not 'til later. What's happening? Should I even ask?

James

James: ...Not much. Just having a little fun. What can I do for you?"

Can I ask you something? Is now a bad time? I'm sorry, what are you doing?

James

James: ...Ha, probably not! What's up?"

Uh, not much...Are you doing much right now?

James

James: "Nope, I always have time for you! Ask away!"

I was going to ask if you wanted to go into Hogsmeade with me this weekend. Please, can you let him down!?

James

James: "Oh, this? This is just a bit of fun, is all."

Fun!? I should go - this is clearly a bad time!

James

James: "Cool, sounds like fun! I'll have to check about Quidditch practice first, though."

SUCCESS!

James

James: "Maybe. It depends on how interesting your question is."

Me. You. Hogsmeade. Is that interesting enough?

Lily

Lily: ...Thank goodness you're here! Please, you have to do something!"

This again? Fine, I'll help! Nope, I'm good just watching.

Lily

Lily: ...Thank you so much! Honestly, I've had enough of their squabbles!"

I feel you there! Do you want to take a break and hang out with me? Meh, I find them pretty funny.

Lily

Lily: ...What!? You can't just stand there - you have to do something!"

Fine. I guess I can help.

Lily

Lily: "Yes, please! What did you want to do?"

How about going into Hogsmeade this weekend? Want to go write the Potions essay?

Lily

Lily: "Speak for yourself! I'm sick of being around them!"

Then let's hang out instead.

Lily

Lily: "Oh, that sounds good! Let's do that!"

SUCCESS!

Lily

Lily: "I've had enough of homework! Pick something interesting to do!"

Okay...What about Hogsmeade this weekend?

Owlery

Climbing up to the Owlery is hard work, and you're feeling tired when you arrive. To your surprise, however, it's a little busier than you expected in here. In the corner, you can see your friend Sirius Black, looking gloomier than usual and gazing out of the window. You can also see Luna Lovegood, looking as loony as her nickname suggests. Who will you approach?

Sirius

Sirius: ...Oh, I didn't think I'd see you here."

Sirius? I never thought you'd hang out here, either. Wait, why the heck are you here!?

Sirius

Sirius: ...It's a little embarrassing, but I like to come here to get away from my family."

It's getting that bad, huh? That is pretty embarrassing.

Sirius

Sirius: ...Overreaction much? I have my reasons."

Then explain them.

Sirius

Sirius: "Yeah. Sometimes I feel like all they do is put pressure on me. I need a break."

In that case, do you want to go into Hogsmeade? Sucks to be you.

Sirius

Sirius: "Excuse me? What's your problem?"

Sorry, I was just joking...Are they really that bad?

Sirius

Sirius: "Yeah, why not? Sounds like a fun time."

SUCCESS!

Sirius

Sirius: "Um, okay? You're being insufferable today."

I can be insufferable all the time - come with me to Hogsmeade this weekend and you'll see.

Luna

Luna: ...Oh, hello. I couldn't see you through the Nargles."

Oh no! Are there a lot of them around me? Nargles aren't real, Luna.

Luna

Luna: ...Yeah, there are loads of them around you."

So what brings you here, Luna? I can't see them. Are you sure you're not going crazy?

Luna

Luna: ...Yes, they are. Just because you can't see something, doesn't mean it's not real."

I guess you're right.

Luna

Luna: "I'm looking for a Crumple Horned Snorkack. Somebody said they'd seen one up here."

I think I saw one in Hogsmeade. Want to look for it together this weekend? Okay, that definitely isn't real.

Luna

Luna: ...Try looking more closely. I would help you if I could, but I'm busy right now."

Busy doing what?

Luna

Luna: "Okay, just let me grab my Spectrespecs."

SUCCESS!

Luna

Luna: "That's not true. They're just very good at hiding."

Come with me into Hogsmeade this weekend and I'll prove it.

Quidditch Pitch

Once at the Quidditch Pitch, you realise that you arrived right in the middle of the Quidditch Tryouts. From the edge of the pitch, you can see Harry, your best friend, walking around clutching his arm and wincing in pain, while Ginny Weasley seems to have taken over from him. Who will you chat to?

Harry

Harry: ...Oh, hey. What are you doing at the Pitch? Were you planning to try out?"

Ha! Thank you, but it's probably best I don't! I wouldn't join your team if you paid me.

Harry

Harry: ...You just need more confidence. I've seen your flying - it's not bad."

More importantly, what's up with your arm, Harry? I'd rather eat a Dungbomb than play Quidditch.

Harry

Harry: ...Wow, did we really look that bad up there?"

Not really. I'm just really bad at playing.

Harry

Harry: "Just a rogue Bludger, you know how it is!"

I think there's a good book on dodging Bludgers in Hogsmeade. We can look together, if you want. Then go to the Hospital Wing!

Harry

Harry: ...Yeah, well, you might have to play, because I don't think I can."

Why not? What happened?

Harry

Harry: "Sounds good. I'll reschedule Quidditch practice."

SUCCESS!

Harry

Harry: "It's fine. It just aches a little. I don't want to miss the Hogsmeade trip this weekend."

Then I'd better go with you and look after you.

Ginny

Ginny: ...Hey! Are you here for the tryouts?"

Maybe! Are you? Nope. I'm completely useless at Quidditch.

Ginny

Ginny: ...I'm already on the team, you know that. Did you not come to any of the matches last year?"

I did go to see you play. Not a single match.

Ginny

Ginny: ...Come on! At least give it a try!"

Why don't you give it a try?

Ginny

Ginny: ...That's sweet of you. So if you're not here to play, why are you here?"

Did you want to go into Hogsmeade with me this weekend? To watch you play.

Ginny

Ginny: ...Wow, you hate it that much?"

Your flying put me off. You're too good.

Ginny

Ginny: "Sure, but only if it doesn't clash with practice!"

SUCCESS!

Ginny

Ginny: "Okay, just don't distract me. I need to focus."

You need to take breaks. Go into Hogsmeade with me this weekend.
