Warded and sealed:
Older Brother,
Apology accepted. I’d suggest you come up and buy me a pint to make up for it, but Hogsmeade weekends are cancelled and the Broomsticks caught fire. You’ll just have to owe me.
I’m making jokes. That’s meant to be a good sign, I think.
Things have been so strange here, and I don’t just mean what happened with Pippa. I wish I could explain; some of it is Squad business and I’m not allowed. Speaking of strange, I’m keeping Official Government Secrets and maintaining at least a semblance of order. Me! Stop laughing, I know it’s absurd but that’s just rude.
If there wasn’t so much to that needed to be done I’d want to come home. I still do, but I’ve mucked things up once. I don’t deserve the faith I’ve been shown. I’m going to work on that instead of trying to run away. I sound so “rah rah Gryffindor”, don’t I? But this isn’t quidditch, it’s war, as much as I don’t want to admit that.
Tell Mum and Dad that I’m doing as well as can be expected and working hard. It’s not even a lie. I miss them. And you, of course. Let’s not stop talking again.
Love,
Thecla
