alt_narcissaWell, let it never be said that our parties are the sorts of affairs one can afford to miss for lack of excitement! One would prefer a different sort, however, in future. How frightful!
Young Mr Weasley, thank you in particular for your calm and swift reaction to the crisis. I daresay your experiences at Hogwarts have already taught you how to maintain order in an emergency. (From the look of things, we were not the only ones impressed by your presence of mind. Do tell your enchanting companion that her own rôle in directing guests away from the scene did not go unnoticed - or unappreciated.)
Mr Malfoy and I went to St Mungo's this morning to pay a visit to the young man who so tragically collapsed on our lawns - I'm quite sorry to report that the Healers hold out little hope for full recovery. Clearly someone took advantage of his recent dismissal from our household and attempted to discover privileged information from him. I hope we can say that the damage was done to him out of his captors' desperation and that the young man resisted revealing anything that might present a danger to Our Lord's tranquil realm. Mr and Mrs Hooper, please accept our condolences. I've no idea who abused your son so horribly but I do assure you Mr Malfoy is as perturbed as either of you that his former clerk should be so beset by enemies of the peace. He has already told me he has his theories and if I know my husband, he shall be sure to investigate the truth of his beliefs and avenge this slight for all our sakes. As a mother myself, I can only imagine how this ordeal must be affecting your family. If there is anything I can do, please, you have only to ask.
Speaking of motherhood, Draco: Do enjoy yourself this week. But don't you boys all make yourselves ill with too much sun and training. Be sure to take care as well and don't overdo it. We shall see you next weekend for the Freedom Day celebrations and I'm sure you and Harry shall have dozens of stories to tell.
Oh, and Raz, it's too bad that your guest couldn't disentangle herself for the evening but I do understand. But now, you really must bring her to lunch on Saturday next; I will brook no argument! Mother and Pascoal will be bringing some of their friends along as well so it's sure to be a jolly affair. There are even plans afoot to take in some of the street performances along the river. I promise no one shall ask impertinent questions: We know our itinerant bachelor is in no danger of losing his heart! His solitude, perhaps, but that can hardly be a bad thing. Rodolphus, you'd best come along whether Bella extricates herself from her work or not, and see what your baby brother has been up to all this time.
And now, Sisters in Witchcraft, I shall see you very shortly! I hope you are all prepared for today's activities. I quite look forward to hearing about your summers thus far.
