Private Message to Sally-Anne, Ron and Harry

It's a beautiful day, isn't it. I'm going outside for luncheon.

If anyone should happen to be looking for me, what, I'll be near the lake.

Er, mate. This isn't your afternoon for Potions.

Maybe you should chuck it in?

If you want to leave and want someone to leave with, I could wash this up and go. I mean, I can come back and do this one evening. I'll just say it was turning sour if Gimlet says anything.

Alright, then!

Oh, say. Look out if you come round the inside corner of your bench. There's a puddle of that glop oozing out on the floor. Could be slippery. Or caustic. What was in your cauldron when it went up, anywiz?

No, I haven't heard back from her. Given how much blood she lost yesterday I rather hope she went to bed early. She might write later, I suppose, or maybe not.

I think she rather likes it when she gets a little fussing, because then she knows people care. But, I don't think she quite knows what to do with it.

Anyway. How are you doing?

Well if you put in sliced mugwort that might explain the explosion as it wasn't in the potion we were supposed to be working on.

I'm sorry you're grieving, Justin. You're not a burden on me. You're a friend, and I'm here to listen if you want to talk to someone who already knows. (You're also allowed to tell people, if you want to talk to Harry, or Ron. You're not a Healer; you know because you were involved.)

You're supposed to feel whatever you feel. And Hydra's supposed to feel whatever she feels.

I'm sorry you're having such difficulties with each other about it, though.

If I got accidentally pregnant, and I miscarried, I would be tremendously relieved. Because it would be very selfish for me to keep the baby, given that it would mean I couldn't go on to apprentice as a Healer (not at St Mungo's, anyway) and in fact it might even mess up Ron's chances of getting into the Auror training programme. No one in the Order would ever say so, but I'd know. The unselfish choice would be to terminate it.

So to have the decision taken out of my hands would be a relief, not because I wouldn't want Ron's baby, but because I would, actually.

Does she not want YOUR child or does she not want ANY child?

It's not as if she's exactly had a good role model for parenting.

Anyway loads of people our age don't think they ever want kids and loads of them change their minds later, it's something everyone makes jokes about in the American Witches books.

By the way, I should probably mention.

Over Christmas, when you and Hydra were staying at Spence, Daphne and I speculated a bit -- idly -- that the two of you had got secretly married. There was just something about the two of you together... anyway.

I was thinking today and realised that stomach ache of yours you wanted a potion for, that wasn't nerves. Of course, I won't tell Daphne she was right, but if she speculates again and I dodge the question she may draw her own conclusions.
alt_sally_anne: (6_That is excellent news then.)

Well.

Congratulations.
