Lucas was very eager to show the pencils and the note to his mother. It said “Lucas is no longer the rambunctious student he once was.” Even though he did not know the meaning of the word rambunctious, Lucas was quite certain that the note was a good one. However, as soon as he was outside the school building, he opened and read it, anyhow. The proof of the new Lucas was the note on pink stationery that his teacher asked him to give his parents.

The homely and the grotesque were alien from her muse'. She argues that to Radcliffe, romance 'implied dignity and remoteness, and her cult of both qualities was conscious.
