"Do the walk of shame, Rosie," George joked as Rose the Gryffindor fifth years with both her middle fingers up.
"Shut it, you arses," Rose said with gritted teeth, standing before the fireplace facing the sofa were Fred, George, Angelina, Lee, Alicia, Amara and Kenneth were sitting.

"Apparently not anymore," Fred snorted, receiving a pillow in the face curtesy of Rose.
"You're gonna freeze in that skirt," Alicia said. "Don't get me wrong, hot outfit, but you'll freeze before you get to the carriages."

Fred and George wouldn't stop whistling, the girls were clapping, and Kenneth and Lee were cackling with laughter as they tried to frighten her with 'the walk of shame'.
"Lee, the 'walk of shame' doesn't exist," Rose said, fed up with the noise that had followed her since the common room. "And even if it did, I wouldn't feel it."
