"Yeah, I was going to ask Boot or Padma, but hadn't had a chance to yet," Ginny explained. "I figured Padma made the most sense though." Roommate and all. And really, if Padma WAS leaving, then having another girl in the Ravenclaw dorm would be a good idea, anyway.
"You had some good ideas, last meeting," Ginny told Parvati, a little awkwardly. She didn't want to seem condescending about it or something. Parvati WAS older than her, technically. But still, she wanted Parvati to know she appreciated it. Ginny wasn't sure how she and Neville had ended up in charge exactly, but they sort of had. That didn't mean they didn't need help wherever they could ge tit though.
