I assure you, I was already aware of Professor Lupin's condition and have given explicit instructions to the kitchens on the preparation of the dinner.
The tea-service will be made of the finest china and the dinner settings shall be crystal. You do not have any need to worry about your dear friends. They shall be well taken care of in my home.
