Remus Lupin

Remus,

I'm sorry not to have taken time before now to answer. I shan't be surprised if you don't see this.

Miss Perks will be visibly marked for some time, and I'm afraid she may continue to feel quite tender where the curse slashed her.

I treated Miss Granger for the topical irritation caused by Dolohov's spidersilk--the worst of it was inside her mouth--and I did also give her a palliative for the stiffness.

Miss Lestrange was merely scraped up a bit and Mr Finch-Fletchley had quite a sore throat from having screamed for such a sustained period--and continues to have a sore jaw, though I've done for him what I can. He also picked up some significant bruising, though he insists that was nothing at all. Tincture of time is what he needs now. And both of them are likely to be haunted by physical memories of the curses they sustained. It is a property of such things to make so strong an impression on the mind that after reversal the sensations may return periodically to haunt one.

Mr Malfoy and Mr Potter were easier to patch up, though I rather guess that Mr Malfoy hasn't taken much pleasure in food yet.

I expect it will be several days before they feel exactly themselves again. That said, all of them were well enough that none asked for a second night's dose of Dreamless Sleep, though I'd doubt that means any of them slept easily.
