For Daphne

Um.

My brothers--y'know, Fred and George--and my sister, Ginny need to come along to rehearsal tomorrow evening. I thought I should tell you and not just have them show up as a surprise.

It's, uh-

The headmistress says we need to spend the weekend doing everything together as a family, so, yeah. The twins'll be coming to our exercise session, too, and then to rehearsal.

They won't bother anyone. I promise. I guess it'll be like having an audience. We can see if they laugh in the right places, yeah?

Private Message to Daphne Greengrass

I can't believe she did this! She put a spell on us that means we have to be in the same room all the time until Madam Hooch reverses it at bedtime. And then she's going to put it on us all again in the morning.

So, um.

I can't go to Hogsmeade with you.

I'm really sorry.

And also really- just- argh.

I mean we can't even go tomorrow, Fred and George and I, because Umbritch says Ginny can't go. It's all punishment because she wrote that private message to Bill and Charlie, and she said we don't pay enough attention to her. I mean, really? Whatever! So Umbritch decided to show us how to be a proper family. Right. Gin'll be lucky if we don't murder her before Sunday night because it was really completely daft what she did.

And it ruins everything for tomorrow!

Just-

I'm sorry.

Oh, Ron. This is all so unfortunate. Not just Hogsmeade, I mean, but Madam Umbridge and her meddling. I should think your family has been through enough that you don't need her interfering!

I'm so sorry, too.

But, it's just Hogsmeade. We can still see each other later, can't we? We you're finally allowed to be alone again?

What can I bring you back from the village?

I was looking forward to our first - well, proper outing.

The spell she used feels really peculiar, like it's tugging at me all the time. It's not even on now, but I can sort of still feel what it was like. Ugh. Can't sleep, either, now. It just still feels so queer.

Thanks for understanding. Only, I really was looking forward to, y'know, walking down to the village and looking at things and going for lunch and all with you. Yeah, our first one.

And, yes, defnitely, we can still see each other later. As soon as I'm not having to stick to the twins and Gin! Only, I think that won't be til Monday. She's making us keep to this charm until Sunday night.

I don't need anything from the village, really. I mean, I would say you should find something at Zonko's that we could put under someone's seat in the great hall--a time delayed dungbomb or something--only I don't think you should. I mean, really, you shouldn't. I just wish I had one so I could use it!

Well-

Have fun tomorrow, I guess. And I'll see you after.

I wish there were some way for her spell to backfire and for her to regret using it... or for her to at least think that it's backfired. Like if you all became so happy and chummy that you started singing "For Weasleys! Tow Row Row..." everywhere you went, while brandishing septres and banners.

Goodness, Monday seems far away. I know that it's not, but it seems so. I suppose I've gotten quite used to spending time with you, is what it is.

I'll be walking down soon, but I - oh, I might as well say it: it really won't be the same without you!

See you soon, I hope.
