Private Message to Seamus

[alt_padma]

Lana asked if I'm going to Snowdonia next weekend and I told her I am. Are you?

I've been trying to think about what to pack. It's just a weekend but there will probably be at least one formal meal, right? And there's that reception thing on the invitation.

Mum says in the old days, witches didn't necessarily have to go broom-back and hunt, they could stay in the lodge and just come out for luncheon and such, but I think that would not look well with the Mark and all.

Have you ever been on something like this, with Mr Rosier? What should we expect?

Oh, and she said Weasley was coming and I thought she meant Ron, but she meant Percy. Isn't that funny! I completely forgot that he got Marked when we did. Anyway, he's coming, but she did tell me a thing or two about his brother, as well. (Unfortunately, he's apparently not completely hopeless.)

Oh, and too funny about Percy! He's really EMINENTLY forgettable. What did you hear about Ron?

[alt_padma]

Lana didn't have much to say about him, actually. Just that he's not the worst of the lot. She told me Aelis Fletcher nearly burnt Auror Crouch to a crisp trying to clean her robes when he confronted her. But all she said about Weasel was that Desai has been pleased with him. Which may just mean that he hasn't fumbled yet.

Well if he's competing with someone who tried to set Auror Crouch on fire, that would make just about anyone look good.

[alt_seamus]

I mean. I've set MYSELF on fire.

But at least I've never set an AUROR on fire.

[alt_padma]

Too bad we couldn't hex Weasley to set Auror Crouch on fire. He'd be the pile of ashes by the end of the day!

[alt_seamus]

Yeah, unless they traced it back to us, in which case we wouldn't live to enjoy the gloating!
