Written in a state of emotional duress from
here. Private to all former Slytherin Students for whom I was Head of House
If you find yourself in need of assistance, you have but to ask.
Private to Spinner's End and Lupin
I have deliberately avoided contact with the house so as not not worsen the situation. One might hope someone will find enough grey matter at the Ministry to realise we are not the source of this present crisis, but until they do, association with me will risk worsening your situation.
Nonetheless, Bingley will be coming to the house after curfew sometime this week. Honesty with him will only aid our case against the Ministry - expensive, messy, public law-suits are something the Ministry understands, and likes to avoid.
Ginevra Weasley has returned from her training, and as a personal favour to me, she is coming to the house tomorrow to see to any lingering medical needs you may have. Again, I implore you to be forthright with her.
I expect you to contact me if you have any needs which are not being met.
Private to June:
If you would allow Ginevra to examine your scars, it would advance our mutual research toward reconstruction. I realise this is not something you consider lightly, but I do ask you to consider it. Ginevra is compassionate and trust-worthy, and with her help I am certain we can achieve the possibility of prosthetics. I have not told you this before now, as I did not wish to rouse false hope, but now that Ginevra has returned, I am completely confident in our eventual success, at least that far.
Private to Derrick
I know full well that you will not be inclined to agree, but if you will allow Ginevra to examine your arm, there is probably a good deal more she could do toward proper alignment of the mis-healed ligaments than any potion I brew will ever solve. I will not attempt to insist upon it, but she is very knowledgeable about Lycanthropic healing, especially now after her advanced training. With her assistance, it might be possible to restore more function and strength to the arm.
Private to Lupin:
The Aurors are all carrying silver-tips to their wands. Orders are to kill first, question later, at the slightest provocation. I am working with an associate in Germany to obtain portkeys for you all, but for Merlin's sake, you MUST impress the need for caution onto the pack!
I am quite serious in my willingness to relocate them all to the Americas. June had expressed an interest in California.
How are you?
I trust you have recovered fully.
Private to Miss Parkinson
Miss Parkinson,
As a friend to Draco, your own familial connections, and your brief stay in Azkaban at the beginning of the Registry period, I have no hope that you avoided the tender hospitality of the Ministry of Magic. Allow me to inquire of your state of health, in spite of our past disagreements? I assure you that I bear you no grudge which would hinder my willingness to assist you, should you require it.
Private to Draco
If you do not tell me, at once, that you are at least breathing, I shall come this instant and make you wish you were not. Have you been to the Ministry? You, I suppose, they treated like the King of the Universe. I did tell you that association with Potter would provide you a measure of protection, did I not?
Will you be at your mother's dinner party on Saturday?
