Order Only: Private message to Padfoot
This is definitely one of those weeks I think I'd be a lot happier if I could opt out of human form and all thought, altogether. Or at least if I could do it on my schedule rather than the moon's.
I had dinner at my desk. Did you go to the great hall?

I did. There was cake for Hydra, her birthday was yesterday. I didn't know. Nice surprise but, maybe I ought to have had supper up there with you instead.

Also Hydra's birthday. Did she come of age? I guess she must have.
no subject
And yes, I suppose she is now. Hardly seems to matter - after all this time and everything she's done and is doing, married, serving as chief Legilimens and also maintaining presence in the field - it's difficult to realise she's only now 17.
Though she looks more like Andie as she gets older. I've noticed that much.

Mind you, I always thought Andie looked like Bellatrix would if she were a human being with a functioning heart. So it's not surprising Bella's daughter would have a similar look to her.
I was thinking
last nightrecently about my time at Hogwarts as caretaker. The people who arrived as eleven-year-olds while I was working there. They're all adults now. The ones who lived.no subject
Well, now, I really hope your goal is to snuggle with Padfoot tonight, Moony, because if you keep on that way, I'll be the one who decides to sit things out as an animal for a while.
Anyway, one thing I've learned in the 20 years since we left this castle, it's that there are always newer, younger people to take one's place.

Just how young was that Enforcer you were flirting with at lunch?
no subject
Maybe you need your eyes checked. I'm sure we could prioritise Hermione waking up an occulist.
no subject
Possibly because it makes you feel young and spry having some barely-past-her-NEWTs young lady bat her eyelashes at you.
(Do you ever get hit on by barely-past-their-NEWTs young men?)

Anyway, Carrie's not that young, surely. And I think I came up with an appropriately nasty assignment for her; I told Rachel she should assign Carrie to keep an eye on any communication between Ginny and her family.
Are you still worried about that comment I made? Because it's really not a factor. Well. We never did have that conversation about three 'freebies' but believe me, Carrie Logue would not top my list.

So yours need to all be outside the wards, and we're good.
no subject
Don't worry. I've had more than my share and done all the philandering I'll ever need.
Now, do you want cake, or not? Because you've made me hungry for another slice, if there's any more to be had. I was thinking of bringing it up to our rooms.
no subject
Anyway.
Yeah, bring me some cake, if there's still any.
