I scarcely think that was the problem with the evening.
And I was having a lovely time until then, you know. (Except for having my ear talked off by that Bulgarian, until we got the conversation shifted off his so-called theories of education that belong in the dark ages. Rote memorisation, my foot.)
It... well. That's my first real exposure to something like that, having been young enough when the Lord Protector took over that.. I'd heard stories, but not been in the middle of it, you know? I was so very proud of how our students did and I'm sure Harry and Draco would have been happier being able to help more, though of course there was no question of letting them into a dangerous situation.
You don't think anyone thinks badly of me for not wanting to go off with the mob to the camp? I wondered if there might be repercussions, people not thinking me dedicated enough, or something of the kind. But your staying, and helping with the students, surely helps with that too. (And I was most grateful for the company, as well.)
Drink, tomorrow night, after all the sorting's done and everyone's settled? My rooms are tidy enough, if you want to come here, or I can come down to yours.
