"I didn't mean int hat sense, I meant prove to me that ravenclaw can still do soething other than put the best traps on the Hogwarts field of play." Robert emphasized with a small chuckle. He had to give them credit, they hadn't pushed Filius to house arrest. Though they came close.
But, then again apparantly his generation knew where to draw the line in the sand and not cross it.

"Hey," Lily said. "We're smart alright. You shouldn't doubt that. We spend most our Saturdays studying." Alright so that was a blatant lie. At least some of them studied on Saturdays so it wasn't a total lie, just a partial one. She personally took her Saturdays to fly. Sometimes she worked on homework but not usually.

"Study on Saturdays, and the rooster crows before dawn." He countered, his eyes lingering on the faded certificate, it once had read something along the lines of best rivals who remained friends. And everyone had signed it.
On that note he pulled out a photo, faded as well, and smiled. "See anyone you recognize?" He questioned offering the picture to the girl. six boys and two girls were in that photo, two were in reputed Weasley's the rest, well, you just had to read the back.

Lily studied the picture for a moment, her face reflecting her thinking. "Well that one is you," she said, pointing to one of the boys. "And that one," she said. "No, I don't believe it. It's not possible, really it's not because that one looks like Raynor. And she would have never been like that. She's all law."

"I'd love to see you prove that one." He challanged, a small smirk/smile on his face.
"But yes, the other one is me, the top right is Yorklin, the two twins are the Weasleys, McCreary is kneeling, and Dabbage, is that chap who looks like he just drank prune juice, which, come to think of it he had..." Robert claimed, a small glint of the past returning to his eyes.

"The Weasleys?" Lily asked. "The Weasleys?" Of course she had heard about the Weasleys. They were legendary. How could one not know. "You knew the Weasleys?" She looked at the man now with a bit more reverance and awe.

"We had a running competition, we each got half the Professor's offices, excluding Dumbledore's, and had to see how many we could get away with rigging without getting caught. We had the numbers, but not the experience, never did get it finished." Robert said shaking his head.
That was another thing he had to to do, track down Fred and George somehow.

"Does that mean you were here when," Lily looked around and lowered her voice to a whisper. "That awful Umbridge lady was here?" So ok most of this information wasn't in books, certianly not any the ministry approved, but she had been looking for something read about the history of Hogwarts so she journeyed to the room of requirement and had found journals of students dating back to the beginning of Hogwarts. She was working her way through reading them and spent a lot of time there. She had started with the most recent and worked her way back.

"Nay, she came three years after us. Those Weasley twins were prodigy's of the time, in their third year, they were surpassing us sevenths, and it truly was amazing, gave us quite a run for our galleons." Robert claimed in appreciation.

"You're lucky then," Lily said. She shuddered. "The things I read about her. They were worse than a horror story. She was awful, the most awful teacher ever to set foot at Hogwarts." Lily thought for a moment before adding. "At least of the teachers I know she was."

"I will not comment on the woman as I never had any personal experience with her. However, I do know she managed to keep her Ministry job." Robert replied. That, was probably the biggest mistake of both Fudge, and Scrim-however-its-pronounced, but that didn't effect him yet.
He too, had read the books, read the papers, heard the stories. But it all came down to if you actually knew the woman. And he, did not.

"Ah," Lily said. "Did you ever know the trio? The most famous trio of all trios? Or were you graduated before then?" She stared up at the man, curiously waiting for an answer. Who knew professors could be this exciting? Certainly not Lily.
