Ron: Excuse me, do you mind? Every where else is
full.
Harry: Not at all.
Ron: I'm Ron by the way. Ron Weasley.
Harry: I'm Harry. Harry Potter.
Ron: So, so it's true! I mean, do you really have the, the...
Harry: The what?
Ron: Scar?
Harry: Oh!
Ron: Wicked!
Woman: Anything off the trolley dears?
Ron: No, thanks, I'm all set.
Harry: We'll take a lot!
Ron: Woah!
Harry: Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans?
Ron: They mean every flavor! There's chocolate and peppermint and also,
spinach, liver and tripe. George sweared he got boogie flavored one once.
Harry: These aren't real frogs, are they?
Ron: It's just a spell. Besides, it's the cards you want. Each pack's got a
famous witch or wizard. I got about 500 meself. Watch it! That's rotten luck. They've only
got one good jump in them to begin with.
Harry: I've got Dumbledore!
Ron: I've got about 6 of him.
Harry: Hey, he's gone!
Ron: Well you can't expect him to hang
around all day, can you? This is Scabbers by the way. Pathetic,
isn't he?
Harry: Just a little bit.
Ron: Fred gave me a spell to turn him yellow. Want to see?
Harry: Yeah!
Ron: Ahem. Sun...
Hermione: Has anyone seen a toad? A boy named Neville's lost one.
Ron: No.
Hermione: Oh, are you doing magic? Let's see then.
Ron: Ahem. Sunshine Daisies Butter Mellow Turn this stupid fat rat yellow.
Hermione: Are you sure that's a real spell? Well, it's not very good, is it?
Of course, I've only tried a few simple ones myself but they've all worked for
me. For example: Oculus Reparo. That's better, isn't it? Holy cricket! You're
Harry Potter! I'm Hermione Granger. And you are?
Ron: I'm Ron Weasley.
Hermione: Pleasure. You two
better change into your robes. I expect we'll be arriving soon. You've got dirt
on your nose by the way. Did you know? Just there.
