The Dungeons

Pansy,

Apologies for only now returning your note; I retired early last night and didn't look through my post until this morning over breakfast.

I'm not entirely certain what I can do. I've little influence over Severus myself; however, I suppose it wouldn't hurt for me to stop by after work this evening and speak with him. Marcellus has expressed concern to me recently as well regarding his father.

You seem distraught. Perhaps you should join me for lunch today. I am quite aware of how Severus can be when he's feeling beastly. Come by my office at half noon if you'd like.

Finola

Really, Bill.

( Where do you find these places? )

A sweet New Year to you and yours.

With affection,

Pansy P.

For Christ's sake, can't I just be bloody well left alone--oh.

( What the hell are you doing here? )
