Hello, hello. I'm afraid I'm far too busy right now to take any calls but do leave a message and I will get back to you. And if this is to enquire over an autograph then simply leave your name and address!
[Well... shit. This didn't look good. Not at all. Also St. Mungo's? Now he was finding that one hard to believe. He wasn't insane! A liar and a cheat, sure, but insane? No chance.]
I have a feeling you might have confused me with someone else perhaps? I can't recall ever setting foot in that place.
And is he here? Well, marvellous. Perhaps he still has the copy.
It seems to be still in the future for you. Don't trouble yourself too much.
He is, although as this place will have it, he's a bit younger than either of us, from what I can tell. Still just as pleasant though, of course. I'm sure he'll be delighted to meet you.
There's plenty of reasons to lie. They don't always have to have a specific intent either. Like I said, I can't quite place you. Perhaps if I did, I could understand why you're lying.
Well, if you say so. I don't think anyone can deny his integrity and nobility.
[While his texts may seem pleasant and neutral, perhaps one of someone who isn't bothered. I assure you, he's currently panicking. Whoever you are, Bartemius Crouch, he doesn't like you. At all.]
I wouldn't know, I'm afraid. But I wouldn't be shocked if you did.
I'm starting to think you and I have drastically different views of the world.

Re: private text
But, yes, between all your commitments and the time you're spending at St. Mungo's, no one could ask you to keep teaching. I understand.
Did he now? I'll be sure to ask him about that next time we talk.

Younger? How odd, I can't even imagine him younger. Is he still the same sort of man?
no subject
More of a man than most ever grow to be, I'd say.

I suppose so. He has a lot of useful skills as well.
