So, yeah.

Thanks for asking me. It was fun today. And I'm sorry I misunderstood. About the party and all.

I guess you don't really need the sneakoscope I got you for your birthday. Not with Professor Lestrange around all the time. He's like a human sneakoscope, innit! With all those things he does to be sure no one's able to do anything dire to you.

Anywiz. Bill says that sneakoscope's just a toy, but I actually think it works. I mean, Bill was just saying that because it was going off the whole time he was home for supper last week--but he didn't know the twins had put a whole scoop of pepper in his soup. Well, he didn't know it yet. When he said it. So, y'know, it was going off cause they were there the whole time, too.

I guess I'll see you at the train. Are they going to let you go on it this year? I mean, I guess with Professor Lestrange and all, nothing could happen like last year. But maybe you'll be going with him and just meeting us at school? I didn't even think to ask you about that today.

So, right. I'll see you soon, I guess. One way or the other.

Well, the sneakoscope's pretty good. It works, right? So.

I think they're letting me take the train. They haven't said anything else. So I'll see you on it. But it is right dangerous. Your dad said that that wizard that's broken out is after me especially. Don't know why. That's the kind of thing nobody ever tells me so as not to worry me. I think I prefer your dad's way better.

Anywiz, I'll see you on the train. You can sit with me and Draco if you want.

You mean that Snape person? Or Macnair? I mean, I guess we already knew he's out to get you. Can't see why, though. I guess now maybe he's cross he got sent to Azkaban, but before I mean. Can't see what he's got against you. Him or anyone else, really.

I'll try asking Dad about Snape before we come back, except I know Mum's told him not to tell us anything. She doesn't like us knowing anything that's really serious. Like when all those people first broke out of Azkaban, she and Dad were all listening to the news all the time and seemed like they expected someone to break in our door any minute and we'd have to run for it, but she wouldn't tell us anything. Not a thing. And tried to pretend there was nothing at all wrong, except we oughtn't to go outside ever even if the chickens starved to death.

Sometimes grown ups are just mental.

So, yeah. I'll see you on the train, then.

Snape, not Macnair. We knew about Macnair. But I guess it's something about my Dad. I mean my not my Father, my dad. And my mum too I suppose. It sounds like your Dad is like my Father not wanting you to know things. Only not to me. I wonder why? Maybe because I'm not his kid.

Yeah they are mental!!

But I'll see you on the train and we can talk then.
