Hermione,
How are you?
I say, thanks again for making it possible to see Sirius. Though I feel sorry you had to spend so much time alone on that hillside, what?
I suppose I was surprised that he looked so...healthy. I mean to say, it's only logical that he has friends who'll help him but somehow I expected he's been living rough more than it appeared. I do wish he'd been a little clearer about the plans he and his allies are making but I can well understand why he might stay cagey about that, what? I'm glad, at least, that he's willing to entertain the idea we'd all join up eventually.
I'm also well glad he finally got a chance to meet Hydra properly! His letters are always careful in what he has to say but I can tell he's been skeptical about her. It's no wonder, what, coming from her family, though he of all people ought to realise that the child need not take after the parents!
We talked a bit about Professor Dolohov but not as long as I'd have liked. I know Sally-Anne's become quite impressed with him in a very short time. I must admit I've a different reaction to his attention. Not as visceral as Neville's perhaps, but then--I think I've more cause, since he will insist on trying to convince me I'm some sort of bally old Dark Arts prodigy. (Which is utter nonsense, it's just a mind-game he's playing at, I'm sure.)
The only thing I regret is not having renewed the warming charms on my cloak and gloves. And I ought to have chosen a warmer hat. It's a good job we got a nice, thick soup for supper this evening, what! I say, I sat as bally well close to the fire as I could get last night, in the common room, and it helped but not nearly enough. I've cast a fresh charm on my jumper, too, but it doesn't seem to make me feel any less shivery.
I say, you'd mentioned that Harry might want to spend some time comparing notes on Sirius and I just wanted to tell you that would be smashing, as far as I'm concerned. Completely at his service, anytime.
