My Father is absolutely fine, as everyone who was at Pansy's party knows. He dropped in for a spot of tea before he left. So you can all stop asking me about what all went on - or, for that matter, looking like you want to ask.
Hope you had fun at the party, Pansy.

Re: Private Message to Draco
Date: 2011-01-28 09:46 pm (UTC)But no, I haven't spoken to or heard from your father since yesterday. He sent an owl from the Prophet Advisory Board that he and your Uncle Razzer would get supper in Hogsmeade and that he expected to be quite late.
But he left before breakfast this morning. I didn't think anything out of the ordinary, even if he rarely takes an early-morning meeting on a night when he and I have not dined together, as you know. Not unless it's absolutely necessary.
If that - Well, dear, you know neither of us wishes you to disrespect your professors, even the Carrows.
But if that cow has hurt your father I shall personally see to it she gets her wand snapped, Dark Arts professor or no!I'm sure there's a reasonable explanation and your father will provide it. Presently.

Date: 2011-01-29 06:08 am (UTC)I don't want to disrespect either of the Professors Carrow, but if she did something to Father then how am I going to not? Just by looking at me she'll probably think I'm being disrespectful, even if I'm being well-behaved. That's the way it is with her brother this year.
So will I get to hear the explanation, too?

Date: 2011-01-29 06:13 am (UTC)Your father's back at home, after what sounds like a very trying and most vexing couple of days.
Based on what he's told me, it doesn't sound like you'll have to worry about the Carrows for much longer. Still, please keep your wits about you for the time being. And go straight to your uncle if there's a whiff of trouble from either of them. Your father tells me they are both in accord about that much.
As for the explanation itself, I think it will be better if Father tells you that directly.

The Carrows' days are numbered, particularly after this stunt of Alecto's. Let it be a lesson to you, my boy: Never stop practising your duelling skills. An unprepared duellist is a defeated one.
Your mother is coming to school to-day and wants to see you if she can. Kindly do her the favour if you can work her into your agenda.
