Hermione, we're back in New London. I don't know if you've heard, but Mother will have to be Hydra's chaperone for the remainder of the summer, so we've had to cut our holiday short. Shame it had to happen before Barty Crouch made one of his "surprise arrivals" at the weekend to liven up the party.

That's not so important, though. Father's informed me that Yaxley put in some kind of request to access my Private Messages. He didn't get what he wanted - Father said he could be looking for anything, be it indiscretions, family secrets, or whatnot. And while Father didn't necessarily say as much I don't imagine that Yaxley has any grudge against me. It's more politics and jockeying for power, no doubt. Still, if he had got his eyes on our writings...well, I shan't finish that unlovely thought. Hardly worth it, is it? Terrible things would have happened... Odd how a person can almost get used to living with a certain kind of constant uncertainty.

Anyway, I already told Harry about all of this, but you ought to know, too. I thought it was Auntie Bella we'd have to be worried about, but I ought to have known she would have shouldered the journals onto somebody else. Hopefully, the Aurors can keep Yaxley out. Better yet, perhaps someone will squash him permanently - and soon.

Also.

I've been thinking about what Hydra's told me about her father - how he must have tracked her or spied on her with one of his devices.

Now, what a lucky thing that it was only her virtue in question, and not her loyalty.

My parents aren't invasive as Hydra's, fortunately, but nevertheless it's a turn of events that, paired with Yaxley's inquiry, has convinced me more than ever that I must maintain an impeccable charade of tow-row-row. Harry, I'll be going to the next Slytherin social, no matter who hosts it. I reckon I'll take Daphs along as my plus-one again, since it worked well enough last time. Might be good if you made an appearance now and then, too. Or else I can tell everyone that you're very busy working closely with your "Dad," if you prefer - that'd certainly stop any questions.

Annoyances

Well Ned stopped trying to get Dennis to do things for him, so I guess Professor Slughorn must've told him to stop trying to get at my property. Which is good, except on Tuesday Sarah Yaxley gave me a shove on the stairs and said I was a nasty little telltale. If you don't know who Sarah Yaxley is, she's a seventh year Slytherin with a big, misshapen pumpkin head that looks like it took a hit with a bludger one too many times. She's always fancied Ned so of course she'd try to get into his good books by terrorising me. Though really, she needn't have bothered with all the shoving - one look at her face is terror enough, ugh.

Anyway, I talked to Melinda about Ned and she said that he's just jealous that I have a servant, and that he even said that first-years shouldn't be allowed to keep mudbloods because it makes the first-year owner look more important than the older students. He said it's the same reason why first-years aren't allowed broomsticks. I wonder if he'd spout that opinion in front of the Lord Protector, seeing as Harry's a first-year with both a broom and a mudblood. Not that anyone would really be jealous of Granger as a servant, since she's really terrible at it.

Someone's cat was sick in my second-best shoes last night, and I'd be really hacked off about it but Dennis had them cleaned up in no time. Still, I can't ever wear those shoes again. I bet it was Pansy's kneazle.
