To follow up on our conversation of last night: I have arranged for tea (or rather, "tea and strategy") with Minerva for tomorrow afternoon, and she seems receptive to my offers of assistance. I will not mention your name, but I will make it clear mine is not the only wand willing to stand at her service; I do not think she will mistake my meaning, as you and I are well known to be close. I will keep you informed.
As for the rest of what transpired in our absence, I am still thinking about that conversation of Dolores, Septima, Acton, and Rolanda's you relayed -- and, more importantly, about what it might portend. I have made overtures to Septima, and will continue to do so as much as I might without being obvious.
So: no true progress, but no true setbacks either, and the potential for some progress in short order. And yes, dear heart, I am resting. With a pile of essays to mark, but I am resting.
To sleep, as soon as I finish the last of the papers from the sevenths, T
