Private message to Padma

[alt_seamus]

Are you doing alright?

Everyone's pretty shocked. Holding it together, more or less.

Did you see ... on the Headmaster's post?

Do you think it's really him?

Well, don't write to him, you idiot!

I'm all right. Shaken up. Daphne didn't deserve that.

And a few people have already had the gall to congratulate me because they assume I'll be Head Girl now. Can you imagine? Congratulated. As if I'd ever have wanted the job under these circumstances. All right, I admit it crossed my mind that it means Dovs might ask me to take it on for the--what, month? that we have left, but--people telling me congratulations? That's completely inappropriate, whatever anyone thought of Daphne.
