Private message to Minerva McGonagall and Poppy Pomfrey

I'm sure you're both terribly busy, so please ignore this until you've a moment to spare, but a few things that have come up.

I'm in the Hufflepuff common room - I relieved Pomona, so she could focus on poor Hannah and whatever else needs to be done - but the entire House is obviously extremely upset.

Whatever concrete information can be shared would be helpful - they've worked themselves up into quite a fit of fear and speculation (the ones who aren't just in tears). Pomona did tell me the horrible details of what happened, but until I know what's to be shared with students, I won't say anything, of course.

Poppy -

More than a few of them are likely to have trouble sleeping. I know you've opinions about the use of Dreamless Sleep potion, but is there something else that might, well, soften the edges a little? Some of them - especially the second and third years - are so worked up.

If an extra pair of hands would be helpful to you, I think I've also done as much here as I can directly, though of course I'm glad to stay here as long as it's useful. The prefects are helping wonderfully, as much as they can.

And... is there anything I can do for Raz? Or any news you can share?

- A.S.

Aurora.

Of course. If you're sure you're not needed in Hufflepuff House for now, why don't you stop up and collect a supply of calming draught. I'll set it aside now.

Professor Lestrange is sleeping, but he did wake briefly this afternoon. You're welcome to look in on him. I can't think of anything he'll need immediately; I'm afraid that for now even a dressing robe would be superfluous.
