One of the cheapest homeless shelters in Victorian London charged four pennies to sleep in a coffin. Which was... still better than sleeping upright against a rope? — Jordan / Lynn

(Everything about this advertisement felt suspect, somehow, but still – her eyes kept fixing on the words ten galleons. So –)

No working girl would ever bat her lashes at a whole ten galleons, leastwise from the Ministry.

10 galleons for one day's work? He'd bet it wouldn't be so much if it wasn't risky but 10 galleons was 10 galleons. And if they didn't want squibs signing up they should have said so.

It was an easy decision for Declan, who had no money, and for Beanie, who copied Sam's font from Fawkes.
