N.E.W.T.s

To my fellow classmates,

I say, here we go.

This week shall test our mettle in a number of ways. The measure of our success lies not only in how well we bear up under the trials of our examinations, but how well we are able to set aside all the turmoil of the recent days to focus on the job at hand.

There's not a person among us who is not vastly affected by our losses, the betrayals we have suffered, the ways in which our thoughts about the world as we know it have been challenged.

Let us not dishonour the memory of all who have sacrificed, but rather do our level best, so that we may not disappoint them, or let their sacrifices be in vain.

We are all wizards, and in this, we are all equals. Prove that this week.

Courage, mes amis, et bonchance.

I wonder if the Enforcers actually took things or if they just put them back in such a way that they can't find them now? I was in the room when they searched my trunk, so if they'd pocketed anything I'd probably have seen.

Anyway, that sounds like an absolutely delightful way to spend an evening. Figures Finnigan was nowhere to be found.

Are you going to rent a flat with Justin again this summer or are you thinking of just staying with your Mum so you don't have to cook when you're doing Auror training?

Pansy wants me to stay with her and I like staying with her but I don't like living somewhere I can't go outside after 9 in the evening. So I don't know. In the short term, though -- that's where I'm going when we're done here.

I'm going back to the Burrow at first, because, well, I won't know if I've got in to the programme until exam results come out. Or until the Aurors get my results, which I hear can happen before they get set out officially to everyone. Anywiz, the thing is, I won't know what I can afford until I know if I've got accepted.

But supposing I do, then I was planning to ask if you'd want to get a place together. Only, I was going to ask nicely, but I reckon that was dumb, thinking I should wait. Would you want to? It wouldn't have to be in New London if you didn't want. I mean, it's easy enough to Floo to the Ministry from wherever we'd live.

I don't know about Justin, but I think he wants to work out how to live with Hydra, y'know? No idea if they'll really do that. I mean, he and I haven't talked about it--just, that's the idea I've got from some of the things he's said that weren't specifically about her.
