Order Only: Private Message to Hydra
Sweetheart,
We've gone to an early lunch, so I've a moment to write. How are you this morning?
I say, it's bally well ironic that crisis is the only time we're able to see each other alone.
I can't think what the Longbottoms must be feeling, nor what to say. Nor can you, I imagine.
No one seems to be blaming you, at least--not that one can see, anyway. I confess I was worried someone might take the wrong end of the stick, what. Particularly when the first reports came in. But it seems they understand how difficult it was for you.
I'm doing my level best to have a 'Happy' Christmas in front of the lads here. Have you--I mean to say, did you happen to hear whether the news will come out soon? It would be a relief to be able to drop the façade and show proper sorrow for Neville.
But until then, I shall go on as normal, as Mr Lupin wisely instructed. Just know my thoughts are with you, love. Come back to Spense again tonight, if you can. I'll do the same. The Weasleys will understand.
Your,
-Justin

If people blame me that's alright, but even I can see that it was better than killing the both of us.
I keep thinking about how I felt angry at Neville, in that moment. Because I felt like he was denying me some kind of respite from having to face these horrible situations, one after another.
If I have to do this for the rest of my life I want my life to be blessedly short.
Please don't be cross at me for confessing that. I'm not trying to be dramatic, it's just the truth.

If you had died in there.... I don't know if I could have gone on, what. Most likely I would have found an excuse to see Antonin on some pretext and commenced to kill as many Council Members as possible.
Though I'm not sure I could beat him in an all-out duel, without at least a small element of surprise, what--and loads of luck!
Do you ever get the sense that more of them are coming round to know Voldemort for a tyrant, and fewer and fewer support him like your mother, or are they all as mad as hatters?

I wouldn't want you to do that if I did die, just so you know. I would want you to carry on and keep fighting and go on and live a long, grand life, if at all possible.
They're more nervous of the Lord Protector, more sceptical of his methods, but I don't get the sense that the Headmaster, for example, objects to the principles underlying the Protectorate.

Can you get away? Even if it's after everyone else has gone to sleep. I don't like to think of our first Christmas apart. Though if it can't be helped, we shall have to bear it.

I'll see you shortly.
