[Private to Lavender]

Mrs. Wiggleswade, do you have any day shifts soon? I want to cook my wife dinner and feed her delicious wine.

A few hours at work and then a birthday dinner this evening with my favourite person. I think that sounds like the perfect end to the day. I can't wait!

It's D-Day and B-Day today, and guess who's fashionably late for both?

Well, not me, I'm fashionably ready to have this party over and done with. But nope, doesn't seem to happen today, since the Braxton Hicks that's made my life, shall we say interesting, the past months, have excelled by their absence today.

Bitch, bitch, bitch, bitch, bitch.

My apologies.

It was my birthday this past week, although I did not celebrate the occasion. Indeed I made the conscious choice to not celebrate and instead kept myself busy all day and mentioned it to nobody until now. I will thank any well wishers in advance and say that because of when the portal pulled me through to this world I have already celebrated my birth once this year, or so it seems.

It was a day when I missed my family and the friends from my old life very keenly. I cannot and will not let my origins hold me back from getting the most from my new life here, but nor can I forget my previous life.

My gratitude goes to all who have welcomed me into this world and assisted me when I did not understand the most basic workings of this society.

My poor, sweet Helena I miss you so. I wish that our last words had not been in anger.

[Private to Finbar]

Finbar - are you ever going to properly ask a witch out?

I think I might be far more tired than Duke after today's walk. He's a bit of a handful these days. To be honest, I can't wait until he's old enough to join the breeding program, but I think that will be a few more months yet. Just have to keep him out of Dempster's office until then or he'll be wreaking havoc in there.

I have been speaking extensively with the workers at the library and trying to investigate my own history in the world we all came from. It appears that over 1000 years is time enough for even supposedly famous individuals to have much of their history lost to the murk of history.

To those who might be curious: the time I came from is after Salazar Slytherin left Hogwarts, although it is not a topic I have a particular yearning to discuss, suffice to say it was not a particularly amicable departure on any part.

However this was a time while my daughter was still alive and a student at the school. I am deeply saddened to find that she did not live to be a good age. That our occasional animosity grew to a great rift. I am aware enough to know my own manner was difficult even in my own time, but that we fought and were never reconciled eats at my heart.

[/Private]

Fellow herbologists I should like to investigate the my current project plant further for its properties and have run through all tests of which I know, if one of you would be kind enough to direct me to some suitable resources for further testing.

Alternatively I am of a mind to go slightly further afield than before for new plant life, if anybody has any suggestions or any of their own ideas they would like company for please let me know.

[Private to Alicia]

I wanted to check in that you received my package? I asked one of the local teens to drop it by your house this morning. Did a little charmwork, hope it sticks.

Confession time I guess.

I've been in this gorgeous new (not fucking freezing) world for a few weeks now. Sorry I didn't tell anyone but I've been helping the parentals set themselves up and visiting the rest of the family. They're all in 2. I've just moved my arse into a cute 'cottage' - with not a white picket fence in sight - here in 1, now that I've been let out of Mama's clutches.

So who do I need to grovel to and will Mama's curry and cheesecake help make up for it? Do I need to bring out the booze? Anyhow, party at my place soon, yeah? I need to catch up on EVERYTHING!

I'm due to start doing Merlin knows what to my hair in this heat in a few days. Well, working on the farms, so if anyone has better employment prospects for former pro Quidditch players with a photography sideline let me know! I also come with years of waitressing skills including the posh end of catering.

I'll start ducking the virtual Howlers now, okay?!

Angie out!

P.S. Yes I saw Voldie pants is dead. I say hooray. Also proves how lethal the shit around here is. Score one for being a good girl and staying in boundaries for once!

[Public]

I'll be bringing the last of the "summer" potions to the four Settlement Med Centers in the coming days, so please be sure to get your "autumn" orders in now. If you're in need of any of the summer potions before I run out, please get me word as soon as possible, I'll see if something can be worked out along with the supplies needed by the Med Center.

[Private to Alicia]

Hey there, Miss Soon-to-be Mom-of-the-Year. How are you feeling? I have some interesting new experiments I was wondering if you wouldn't mind being my guinea pig for? I would do it myself, of course, but seeing as I'm not pregnant nor female, I don't know that everything-craving-satisfying suckers and the like will do anything for me.

I'd also just like to see you to catch up. Seems like there's been so much going on lately, and we've lots touch. How is Vitkor's recovery coming? How are you doing?

The reading Sirius pointed me towards when I first arrived filled me in on this Voldemort fool and the awful things he did to the world and to me and Lily. It's still a bit strange to hear that someone's been killed here in the Settlements, even by animals. I know I should be relieved - he was a murderer, in this world and the Old one, of course, but there's just a bit of a disconnect, I guess. Anyone else feeling it? Any other... refugees of time unsure how to react to this?

Honestly, it's a disconnect I haven't felt this... disjointed... since arriving, I'd say. Of course, I've written all of this without a note of how glad I am to know the wanker's dead and gone. Quite, to put it lightly.

[Private to Remus & Sirius]

Drink at the pub soon, boys? Remus - you're finally going to have some free time now, yeah?

Hey Old Man, so you've seen the news by now, yeah? I feel like celebrating but everyone around here is in an awful mood and I'm at the office. Care for a data chat to keep me company?
