Private Message to Ginny Weasley

[alt_ptolemy]

Good morning, dearest,

How are you feeling this morning? Any pain?

I hope you got my note.

I did so want to be with you when you woke but we received some rather bad news this morning. Your wretched sister-in-law has gone and ordered Karo's family killed.

As you might imagine, it's upset Karo a great deal. She'd no particular love for her father but her mother.... And there was no reason to kill the youngest of the lot. We're thinking through our next options and what's to be done. I shan't bore you with details. Suffice to say it's thoroughly unpleasant and I'd far rather still be wound up in you.

But you ought to have breakfast in bed, and enjoy these last few days of leisure. Soon you'll be an important wireless personality, after all! There'll be no time for lying in.

I'll be sure she knows.

And yes, I saw. It's my job to see, Gingersnap. Is there anything you want to tell me about them? And don't forget, now you've got your present to help when you do read what they have to say.

[alt_ginny]

Yes, it says not to trust any of them. Even Luna and

You don't think they sent Ron to

[alt_ptolemy]

Yes, well, we knew they are not to be trusted. They want you to remain a naive little girl. But you're not a little girl anymore, are you?

Just be sure and tell me if you see anything that looks extra suspicious. I know it was frightening when we thought the worst had befallen Antonin, but that's all over now. Soon enough, he'll be back to help put a stop to them, but in the meantime, you know I'm here to take care of you, right?

[alt_ginny]

No, I'm not a little girl. And I know you'll take care of me, even with Antonin not here.

Thank you.
