Julian Bashir: So I guess it’s your game again.

Miles O’Brien: What’s that, five in a row?

Julian Bashir: At least.

Miles O’Brien: Wait a minute. You haven’t been letting me win, have you?

Julian Bashir: What makes you think that?

Miles O’Brien: You said your hand-eye coordination had been genetically enhanced.

Julian Bashir: Well, maybe I have been letting you win, a little bit.

Miles O’Brien: I don’t believe it. I don’t need you to patronize me. I can play at your level.

Julian Bashir: I never said you couldn’t.

Miles O’Brien: Well, play then. Really play!

[Bashir quickly throws his darts. O’Brien sees Bashir has thrown three straight bulls-eyes]

Miles O’Brien: Alright, from now on, you play from over here,

[moves Bashir behind a pole]

Miles O’Brien: I play from up here.

[stands in his usual spot]

Miles O’Brien: If that doesn’t work, we’ll try a blindfold.

“I don’t think you should be an Auror, Harry,” said Luna unexpectedly.  Everybody looked at her.  “The Aurors are part of the Rotfang Conspiracy, I thought everyone knew that.  They’re working to bring down the Ministry of Magic from within using a combination of Dark Magic and gum disease.”

Harry inhaled half his mead up his nose as he started to laugh.  Really, it had been worth bringing Luna just for this.

One of the greatest myths in the world—and the phrase “greatest myths” is just a fancy way of saying “big fat lies”—is that troublesome things get less and less troublesome if you do them more and more.  People say this myth when they are teaching children to ride bicycles, for instance, as though falling off a bicycle and skinning your knee is less troublesome the fourteenth time you do it than it is the first time.  The truth is that troublesome things tend to remain troublesome no matter how many times you do them, and that you should avoid doing them unless they are absolutely urgent.

“Yes, I’m meeting Cormac at eight, and we’re —”

There was a noise like a plunger being withdrawn from a blocked sink and Ron surfaced.  Hermione acted as though she had not seen or heard anything.

“— we’re going up to the party together.”
