gobstones tonight if you want

Something dreadful happened on Monday.
Tully's leg was hurt.
I found him huddling behind my trunk, and his left back leg was bloody and twisted.
I took him to Professor Brutka before dinner and he fixed it, thankfully (and without removing any of the bones on accident, too).
He said that maybe the charm that protected Tully from the cats in Slytherin had wore off, so he put it on Tully again.
Tully was just so frightened when I found him and that frightened me, too.
But now he seems alright, almost as if nothing happened at all.
Maybe rabbits don't remember for very long, which could be useful sometimes and not at all at other times.
A girl from Ravenclaw wrote in her journal about how her Mummy died doing a charms experiment.
It made me afraid of doing my charms homework for a little while but then I realised I was being silly.
Still, it scares me a little to think of how Daddy works with dark, cursed objects all the time.
He's never had one of them hurt him, but what if one did?
Dark, cursed objects can do worse things to you than killing you.
I told Draco about it and he said I worry too much, and that I should play more games like imploding snap and gobstones.
So does anyone want to play gobstones in the common room tonight?
Let me know if you do.
Mummy's owl this morning wrote about how we're going to have a special guest staying with us over the holidays.
I wonder who the special guest will be?

No, your Mother convinced her to give it up.

Games can be had, certainly. We'll try to pop in Harrod's at the weekend and see what's all the rage. Or what's totally "wizard," as you kids say.

'Fraid I will be working a bit, Duckie. But you know I'll always make time to spend with you.

Perhaps you can watch a bit, from a safe distance. It'll depend on what I'm working on.

And no, I've never seen a nargle, but some people are convinced they exist, the dotty souls.
