Order Only

The sodding Lord Protector is coming to Hogwarts tomorrow and staying through the weekend.

Just what all of us needed the weekend before NEWTs, to settle our nerves.

The rumour I heard is that he's coming to scout more prospects for new Death Eaters. Like he did last year with the contest, except this time he's just going to come check people out directly.

The Headmaster told us at supper and everyone tried to look pleased.

Private Message to Sally Anne

You could go now, you know?

I mean it. You don't have to stay for NEWTs. Given that you know whatever you do on them's going to make no difference. I just... Maybe it makes more sense for you to go now while you can. Before we find out His idea of finding new Councilwizards is making them do horrendous things to halfbloods while the rest of us watch.

I don't want that happening to you.

And I don't want to be the one that's supposed to do whatever it is.

If I take off now, they'll think I'm running away because I'm a traitor and the LP would know, and they'll ask you questions, and Pansy, and it'll be far more dangerous and awkward than if I just sit tight and hope for the best.

Mind you, I don't want you to have to go anywhere. And I'll feel loads better if you're here. But y'know, if the time comes, you should go. We can sort things out for ourselves. I mean it. Pansy'll say the same.

I know. If I have to run I'll do it, and I hope you'd do the same, just like Draco and Hermione did, and Professor Siz and Madam Pomfrey did.

I'd rather fight, though, which just shows what a terrible influence all you Gryffindors are on me.

I've felt much better since my morning tea. Like, confident that nothing terrible's going to happen. And that Hufflepuff firstie went to pieces at lunch and nothing terrible happened, so I guess I was right?

Morgana's tits, my heart was in my throat when that happened.
