Current mood:mortified

I simply cannot believe what has happened today. Egregious does not even begin to describe the circumstances in which I found myself at what I had thought to be a valid business appointment. I do believe I am still trembling.

Draco, I shall be sending you an owl later this evening. I am quite glad that you have returned to Hogwarts safely. I miss you.

Update: I have gotten your return owl. One shall be coming to you shortly bearing post and a nail file.

Remus, perhaps we could have a firechat later on? I shall send you an owl with the address which I am currently at.

Lucius, je suis désolé.

Great. I can start working on filing my way out, then.


blondenarcissa @ 2003-09-03 09:27 pm UTC

I thought you would like it since you mentioned that you couldn't find yours.

I'm sorry that I was mistaken.

No, as a matter of fact I would. I was merely remarking on the fact that I'm sure it sounded quite funny to anyone else reading it if they didn't know.

Oh. In that case, then, I am pleased that it is to your liking.

I am currently attempting to finish mapping out my thoughts so that I may reply to your post. I do want to thank you for being so candid with me. I appreciate that very much.

I'm always candid, Mother.

blondenarcissa @ 2003-09-03 09:41 pm UTC

Yes you are.

Some days I really am reminded how like me you can be.

Well, I do have a fondness for vicar's collars.

blondenarcissa @ 2003-09-03 09:54 pm UTC

I remember. You've always liked them, ever since you were very small. They flatter your aristocratic neckline.

potterstinks @ 2003-09-03 09:58 pm UTC

I just happen to find them regal-looking.

As should anyone with a bit of taste. Fortunately for you, you have an overabundance of such and have no trouble recognizing something that is worthy of such praise.

potterstinks @ 2003-09-03 10:06 pm UTC

Naturally. So much, in fact, that I really ought to give some away to those who are in desperate need of taste.

blondenarcissa @ 2003-09-03 10:12 pm UTC

That would be terribly philanthropic of you.

potterstinks @ 2003-09-03 10:13 pm UTC

I am occasionally charitable.

blondenarcissa @ 2003-09-03 10:21 pm UTC

As well you should be, using discretion and sound judgment, of course.

potterstinks @ 2003-09-03 10:32 pm UTC

Father always tells me to be discreet in generosity. I've learnt quite well from him.

blondenarcissa @ 2003-09-03 10:42 pm UTC

A father should educate his son as he sees fit and your father made certain that you would learn things he deemed to be important. As you are now a capable young man, I expect that you will expand your horizons and compare your new knowledge with that on which you have been indoctrinated.

potterstinks @ 2003-09-03 10:50 pm UTC

I've always been a capable young man, Mother.

blondenarcissa @ 2003-09-03 10:56 pm UTC

I know you have been, Draco. I suppose I chose my phrasing badly. I meant that you are now at an age where you do not have to reply so much on your father and I and that you will soon be finished with schooling and the like. The age you are now is pivitol and I have every confidence that you shall continue to prove yourself exceedingly exceptional and capable in light of any situation.

(parent)
potterstinks @ 2003-09-03 11:04 pm UTC

I have the same confidence. I have to go to sleep now, Mother. After all, I have History of Magic in the morning, and I'd hate to fall asleep during that. I'm tired.

(parent)
blondenarcissa @ 2003-09-03 11:07 pm UTC

Go have a sleep, then.

Thank you.

Love,
Mother

Of course, Narcissa. I'm around at the moment if you are. I actually wouldn't mind a little chat as I have to as you for some advice on something rather important.

- Remus


blondenarcissa @ 2003-09-03 10:23 pm UTC

The address shall be there shortly.
