001; Tell me your troubles
[Private]
When you're quiet and you listen, it's amazing what you can learn. Horcruxes, then. I wouldn't have put it all together, but I came across a scrap of writing in a book I was reading. It was minuscule, so I had to go digging for more information. It took me a long time, and I'm still not sure about all the details. He speaks so rarely of these things, and sometimes it's like you second guess ever having heard it. But I think I know what's happened.
But how?
And what with?
I need to know more, and it's taxing, all this research. I haven't slept decently in ages. I simply cannot continue to be such a recluse. It will be suspicious. Already I've caused Amycus worry. He's taken note of my absence, so who else has? Time to rejoin the living, I suppose.
It's easier to keep tabs with these, I shouldn't lose it again.
There's so much to do. And I can't stomach it all. I can't do it anymore. Every time.. I can see their faces in my sleep. I see them staring at me. What did they die for? Not what I signed on for. This isn't what I wanted.
He's mad. Power hungry. Deranged. He looks less human every time I see him. It's frightening. All of this.
I shouldn't have... But, no.

Curiously, I looked at the date this morning and realized it was January already. Not that I didn't notice the passing of time with Christmas and New Year celebrations. They were lovely and quiet for me, I assure you. But January always sneaks up on me. It's my birthday in a few days. I never remember it, and it seems to get lost in the Holiday Season. That's alright with me. Who wants to celebrate another year?
I could use some new gloves, though.
