Re: James/Ron
I've been in a war too, Ron, I died in one. I watched friends die, heard about ones who disappeared or worse, I know where you're coming from...but I only have to look at Sirius to know that some people here are not as you remember them. I'm sure Malfoy thinks you're a right prat too, and I don't give a bloody rat's ass if you hate each other until you're old and batty, but I would like it if you could just ignore each other for the day. For fuck's sake, I live next door to Severus Snape. Everyone tells me what a saint he is and how he's saved Harry, but all I remember is the sullen arse I knew in school who loved Dark Arts and called my Lily a Mudblood. But I'm ignoring him, because...well just because.
Come. Come and have fun with us. Pretend that he's not there and see how happy it makes everyone to have you there, because I know if you aren't we'll all be missing you and sullen and unhappy.
