Private Message to Professor Raz

It's good to be able to call you that again.

It's all been sorted, right? With Cassie, I mean. I hadn't heard for sure. But it's finished? You don't have to worry about anything She left behind?

Hallo, Harry. It's good to be called that, as well.

Miss Calderwood is not a terribly predictable young woman, so as much as I wish I could say that she won't be a bother in the future, nothing's guaranteed. I can tell you that she expressed remorse for what took place, though, and did seem to mean it.

As for Madam Umbridge, if she had any further plans for me or Professor Sinistra they have yet to manifest. And that's the best I can tell you.

The thing is, if you're me- if you're any councilmember, really- there's always going to be one or two people who are out to discredit you, or get you out of the way to advance their own agenda.

But you shouldn't worry your own head about it. For now, things are looking up, and we might as well be thankful for that, eh?

[alt_harry]

Good.

If anything else does come up, I'd like to know. Especially if it's from Her.

And things are looking up. So I guess we shouldn't look too closely, yeah?

We just have to get through our OWLs first.

[alt_rabastan]

I'll let you know what you need to know.

And like I already told you, you and your mates did an admirable job of making sure everyone kept at it, so I have higher hopes for OWLs than I did a few weeks ago.

One final push and we'll be past it.

[alt_harry]

Okay. I could

...Okay.

I just really want to be done with this term. You know?

[alt_harry]

And if anyone else gets sent to the camps because of what She did to this school

What He

It never should've been allowed to begin with.

[alt_rabastan]

I know what you mean about wanting to be done. Pretty sure everyone else feels the same way. Though maybe a few of us more than others.

As for people being sent to the camps, you know that I and the rest of the staff will do all that we can to prevent that. You also know by now that we don't always get a say.

And yeah, a lot of people feel the same way as you. But letting yourself feel anger over something that's over and that you can't possibly change now that it's done? Well, that'll keep you up at night.

[alt_harry]

But it's never done. He's going to keep testing me and I'm going to keep failing, because the rules keep changing

You're right, it will.
