lupercus: Will the landslide bring you down?

Will the landslide bring you down?
I am packed. Not that I am really taking that much. I've a rucksack to carry with me while I'm on the move and a smaller case with a few changes of robes. I considered bringing a book or two, but I doubt I'll have much time for reading.

You'll all be pleased to hear that I have sufficiently banned Hagrid from crossbreeding any of my creatures, and I've left him with a very thorough lesson plan to ignore. If you haven't got life insurance you might want to look into it.

If anyone's missed me at meals, which I doubt, I've been taking them in my rooms. Am not really in the mood for the Great Hall these days. I reckon there are those who are glad of it. It's not like I am alone, however - I've had a visitor every evening this week. Harry comes by, eats all his dinner and a good portion of mine (where, I ask you, does he put it? The boy weighs as much as a Snitch), gives me a sound thrashing at Wizard's Chess, and then does his homework at my desk. Were it not for the chess bit (and the irritating victory dance he does afterward) it would be a wholly pleasant experience having him around so much. He really should not dance.

Today, he told me not to go where he can't follow me.

Sirius, if you're even reading this, did you find the box? Please let me know.

Now I've got some correspondence to take care of, plants to take to Professor Sprout to look after, and miles to go before I sleep.

Look, take care of yourself.

And I mean that, that isn't just a parting word, becasue you know? You don't. You don't unless someone else makes you and there won't be anyone there to make you do it and keep you from sinking into a funk. So, do it, right?

And send us a postcard.

lupercus @ 2003-11-20 05:36 pm UTC

Will do.

Look after yourself as well, would you?

I'll do my best on the postcard.

You'd better.

I'll do my best.

If it's a choice between the postcard and something important, though, you can forget it. Unless it has a photo of a sexy boy, then you'd better send it along.
