Popularity vs. Prestige (TMA 4)

“Ron, I’ve been thinking. We should use longer words, and more metaphors.”

“Eh?!”

“We’ll have way more credibility!”

“So? We’ve done OK so far. Credibility or not, at least our stories are actually interesting!”

Harry inwardly agreed, but heard a tut from Hermione, who was busy reading Swallows and Amazons.

  1. LOL!! I like this one. Didn't realise that it was Harry Potter until the use of Hermione's name. I hope that doesn't mean I'm stupid.

  2. No, not at all. I usually aim for the whole point to only come out in the last line.
    Have you ever read swallows and amazons, btw?
    It has status as a classic for some reason, but i hated it.
