Private Message to Charlie and Ginny Weasley

[alt_ron]

That was brilliant! Tonnes better than Mr Lestrange's talk, and that was dead interesting.

EVERYONE'S talking about the Horntail. I mean it was beyond wizard you were able to bring it here!

And you do know that all the witches are completely over the moon about you. It's hilarious. Every time I passed a group of them this evening, they come out in giggles and whispering. I tell you, tomorrow they'll all be writing 'Mrs Charlie Weasley' all over their notes, won't they?

Heh.

Order Only

Say. Thanks for what you said at lunch. (Thanks for lunch, too. I'd almost forgotten what real food tastes like!)

Anywiz, yeah. Thanks for not trying to talk me out of tying myself to Desai. I know Mum probably doesn't like it at all, but she hasn't tried to stop me, either.

I might try to stop you, if I thought it would work.

Mum doesn't like it, but she's given up trying to tell any of us what to do. It didn't help, anyway.

You're welcome. It was good to see you both, especially since it was in a way that nobody could look twice at us for. I mean, of course your big brother is going to have lunch with you when he's there at Hogwarts to give a lecture.

If you ever do need an afternoon of just sitting with somebody, let me know. I can come down to attend another one of these lectures and just show up a bit early.

And no, I'm not going to try to talk you out of doing anything. For one thing, I'm trying to think of any case where somebody was able to talk one of us out of doing something we had our minds set on and I'm coming up blank for as far back as I can remember. For another, well, I know that somebody trying to talk me out of doing something I have my mind set on just means I'm not going to talk to them again in the future when things go tits up. And I'd rather that you always feel comfortable coming to me to talk about stuff, and that you know you're not going to get a lecture. I'll always listen. Might be you have to sit through me trying to give some fumbling advice after, but I'll always listen.

That goes for you, too, Ginny-bean. Even if it's just by journal. I know there are times when I've been all conflicted about something and it's really helped me to write it all out to somebody -- Tonks or Bill or Alice -- and get it all straight in my head. You can always use me as a sounding board, yeah? It's not a sign of weakness or anything like that.

UTTERLY wizard.

And Ron's right. You're just lucky it's not early February or you'd get a load of scented nonsense by owl on the fourteenth. (But it's October, so I expect they'll have moved on by Valentine's Day. Unless you make the mistake of encouraging anyone.)

I'm glad you both enjoyed it!

And oi, thanks for the heads up. I'll hide from my post for a few weeks.
