Mid-winter moments

[alt_sinistra]

It was quite fun yesterday to see all the different creative ideas for Valentines - such a nice break in the middle of the winter. And hearing the buzz about the Frost Faire - those who’ve seen the latest photos, I can only say they don’t do the streets any justice, from what parts I saw last night.

Seventh years: I’m delighted to say I’m ahead of schedule with comments on your research proposals. They all look quite strong, and there are a couple I’m particularly intrigued by. If you’d like them back sooner than Friday’s class, stop by during office hours.

Pleasure was all mine, love. I knew that those sparklers would win you over eventually- too much like wee stars not to, yeah?

Hooch says that dueling went just fine last night. Rather thinly attended, as I expected, what with so many kids off having a cuddle somewhere. Bloody Erebus, I only hope one of them wasn't Hydra.

We might have a free moment here and there for you to do your work, if you need to- though I confess I'd rather spend that time on other things.

Not so wee as all that, but yes. They do shine, rather.

I'm not surprised it was sparse, either. Everyone was going on last night in class, about all the gossip.

As to Hydra - honestly, I've said my bit about that, and if it'd help to have me speak to her, I'm still willing. But she's struck me as surprisingly mild, compared to a number of other examples among her peers. Even if your brother is fussing.

And on the work, I'd rather spend that time other ways too.

It's one thing to bring some marking, and if I get it done companionably sitting around Sunday morning, well, one less thing to do later. But I'd rather not feel like I had to, or lose all hope of dealing with the investigation, so getting ahead feels lovely.
