Hadrian's gone again. Mum told Arianwen he's staying with friends. I don't know if that's true. It probably is, he got in such trouble for going to Mrs Scalara's last time. Honestly though, from what he said about me and Mum, I guess it doesn't really matter, he's going to go away and stay away, where ever he can, as much as he can. Like Daddy, but ( Read more... )

Addie, do you know if Mr Luna was here last night?

I was at Cassie's until well after supper. When I got home, Mum was already in bed so... um... I guess he wasn't here. Although if he was, that might explain why Hadrian isn't.

Well, he left me a note, but it's short and it doesn't make much sense. He was right about Luna?

I know he thinks Luna is the reason that Mum told Dad to leave. I mean, this week rather than last month or last year or next year or whenever. I don't know whether he's right, or whether Luna was here last night, or anything. Maybe he was, or maybe Mum just said something to him that fed this conviction of his...

But Uncle Ishmael and his family ARE our family. Daddy wouldn't hear of us saying otherwise, even though he knows that there are people who won't want to marry us because the magick doesn't always breed true in our line. (Not that it does in anyone else's, necessarily, but they pretend it does.) Maybe Grandmother Redferne didn't think so, but she's dead and Lavinia is living in her house now.

Oh, and cousin Alanna got a Hogwarts letter, by the way, she's so excited. You will look out for her and Fiammetta won't you?

Oh that's a second one, that's great! Although poor thing, any trouble we have marrying will go extra for her. But then, it's like being Muggleborn, I guess, and they can marry into some families, even if it isn't easy.

I'll look out for them when I can, but they're not likely to sort Gryffindor are they? Besides, Hadrian didn't make Fiammetta sound like she would need help...

I don't know how they'll sort. Justin went Slytherin and nobody expected that! They're sorting more and more people there who aren't pure and I'm wondering why. Alanna could go Hufflepuff or Ravenclaw, she's not very outgoing, but maybe being in a school where she's not odd one out will be nice for her.

Fiammetta is very likely to sort Gryffindor. Hadrian says I'm full of it, but she's not a Slytherin.

Really? I would have thought it was hard to impress Hadrian if you were anything else. *excited* But... that might be good, even. Well, if we get along. I'm um... not exactly the most popular person in Gryffindor anymore.
