Dear Mr. Black,

I regret to inform you that the Ministry has been advised by the Sudanese Ministry of Magic of the disappearance of your wife, Ms. Clorinda Hopkirk. Ms. Hopkirk was last seen yesterday at four pm local time when she headed out to a nearby local Muggle village. Because of the local war, the search did not start until this morning.

Sudanese Ministry employees visited the village and found that all adult men living there had been killed. There are no traces of women and children. We were notified at noon of the events and have been assured that a search is being conducted. However, any search mission is slowed down by the war and the impact it has on the Muggle population, which causes the inhabitants of many villages to move around to seek safety.

We will continue to update you as soon as we are able.

Regards,
Barty Crouch, Sr.
Head
Department of International Magical Cooperation

Who was the fucking genius to put fucking cinnamon in the coffee? Now it tastes like shit.

MY CLUB OPENS TOMORROW HOLY SHIT!

Everyone, prepare to get hammered.

James
So apparently telling me we're done, canceling our party without telling me and moving out of the house doesn't mean she's breaking up with me. She seemed surprised at the very idea, and keot wondering why everyone was asking if she was okay...

James. This girl... I honestly do not understand one single thing about her. At all. But at least she doesn't hate me?

What's happened?

Warded to friends

So it turns out I got sent away to write an article for work, and it appears everything has been turned upside down around here whilst I've been gone. Would anyone like to fill me in nice and concisely and possibly over a beer? I'm buying!

The wedding party is off. Please don't bring any gifts. The club is still opening on the 22nd. I hope to see you all there.

[Narcissa]

Any and all public posts about your cousin will end, even if I won't be representing your family any longer.

[Andromeda and Regulus]

Thank you for your kind words, but it seems that they were a little premature.

I am alive despite popular rumors. Simply barricaded in my classroom and office as of late as the school year starts. Thank you for the well wishes regarding my health. Madam Pomfrey has been wonderful and I'm fully recovered.

It seems I've missed a lot, though.

Sirius

What the hell did you do?! I am away for two weeks, and you get married?! I knew you were bloody impulsive, but c'mon, man!

Profssor McGonagall and Headmaster Dumbledore

I am so sorry for not doing more to assist with the Hogsmeade trip. I promise not to neglect my duties next month. The Wolfsbane potion had some unexpected side-effects.... I am fully recovered, however, and I will make up for it.

I will never understand why people can't accept facts without putting a personal spin on things. Facts are nice and objective. If you focus on facts, you don't have problems.

It must be why I can understand history, but I don't get people. I like my facts too much.

Ladies and Gentlemen, the moment you've all been waiting for...





Saturday the 23rd, come party your arse off and drink the night away! Special guest artist Edgar Bones! Grab a portkey at the portable store front in Diagon Alley or apparate to 2576 Haversham rd in Brixton.

Friends and Family
Clorinda and I will be celebrating our marriage in tandem with the club opening. VIP section will br reserved for our use and the alcohol and food is on me! We hope to see you all there. And yes, if you can see this then I do in fact mean you!

Always fun and games until someone gets hurt and Moody and Edgar? I told you the healers still knew my name.

Alice, I'll try not to get hurt as often next week.

( I'm trying to figure out the problem )

Apparently I'm out of a job for being too friendly with people the Head Auror doesn't like. I never knew a secretary needed to submit her friends for approval.

Anyway if anyone has a job that requires an amazing woman with a great smile, let me know.

[Warded to Dumbledore]

Longbottom objected to me going undercover with Karkaroff so I quit. If you need anything, let me know. I find that I have a lot more free time on my hand now. Also if Flitwick ever quits, you know where to find me.

[Warded to Moody]

The boss is too afraid that her career will suffer if something goes wrong so she won't allow me to do undercover work.

[Warded to Edgar]

I quit, because she's a career worried useless woman who doesn't even know how things work.
