Private message to Lana Sandoval-Pennifold

Dear Ms. Sandoval-Pennifold,

I would like to express my regrets that one of your other chosen candidates, Greg Goyle, crossed my path in the most recent challenge. I didn't plan to pursue either him or Vincent for their secrets, but when the opportunity to take them presented itself, I saw no reason to hesitate.

I can only say that I hope that he performs better next time.

Sincerely,
Hydra Lestrange

Thank you for considering what my views might be, Hydra, but there's no need at all to apologise.

My first hope is that you will excel. If that requires you to put yourself forward at others' expense, that's absolutely what you ought to do.

Consider what your mother would do if she were in your place. That thought should guide you better than any advice I can offer.

Oh, I wasn't apologising. I don't regret either hexing him or legilimising him (or Vincent). I'm only sorry that he unthinkingly gave me such an opportunity. It doesn't speak well of him, and he is my Housemate, after all.

I do think of my mother often, especially these days.

From,
Hydra
