Order Only

I'm alright.

Mummy's left the castle, and she never did summon Justin, so he must be alright, too, I think.

Please don't hit me with a million questions just now. I'm just letting you know I'm alright.

Hydra,

Yes, I'm all right. Professors Sprout and Dolohov want to see me.

-Justin

[alt_draco]

What about Hermione? You didn't leave her there, did you?

Glad you're alright.

[alt_hydra]

I said I didn't want any questions.

[alt_draco]

Which is why I didn't ask you about YOU.

Well?

[alt_hydra]

I tried to leave the door open when I left, so she could follow me out, but Professor Slughorn quickly shut it behind me. So she's still in there. But Mummy's gone, it's just the professors. And Justin now, I guess.

[alt_hermione]

I'm fine. Why wouldn't I be?

The Professors all stayed to talk a little after Hydra was sent out and I wanted to stay and listen.

I'm sure Professor Sprout's still working on the arrangements they were discussing. But later maybe she and Justin will have a few things to say.

Hydra, I'm so sorry. Is it all right if I tell everyone or would you like me to wait?

[alt_hydra]

Go ahead. I'm going to find Jack.

And thank you. I'm sorry to drag you into things, I just didn't know what would happen, and I wanted someone to be able to tell everyone, just in case.

[alt_hermione]

It was just the professors. Professor Lestrange and Professor Dolohov wanted to go and talk, and then Professor Slughorn and Professor Sprout left to talk to Justin and then they'll probably want to see you again, Hydra.

[alt_hermione]

Okay.

And it's all right, really. I just--

Well, I just wish she weren't such a bitch. Or that Montague hadn't been such an utter pillock in the first place.

Private message to Hermione

[alt_draco]

Why? All sorts of reasons.

You don't share F-F's death wish, do you?

[alt_pansy]

Let us know if you need one of us to knock on the door or something so you can get out.

[alt_hermione]

Oh, no, they've all gone now. Otherwise I'd still be listening.

But thank you.

[alt_hydra]

Montague's going to be sorry. I'll see to it.

So will she. Someday.

It's not a death wish. His, or mine.

You're acting odd again. What have I done now? I'm fine. She never even knew I was there.

I think it's you who has the death wish, wanting to switch places. Wanting to join the Council. Wanting to personally duel and kill Voldemort, next.

Now, leave off so I can explain to everyone what happened.

Re: Private message to Hermione

[alt_draco]

It's not a wish, it's an acceptance of something that is highly probable, to be delayed for as long as possible so that I can do something that matters before it's all snuffed out.

Fine, go share your notes with the class or whatever.
