( You know where you've sent her; you should know where you are. You're trying toe ease off, but you know yuu won't get far! And now she's up there -- sings like an Angel -- but you can't hear those words! And now she's up there, sings like an Angel: Unforgivable Sinner...! ~ Lene Mzrlin )

( Where did I go wrong? I lost a friend, somewhere along in the bitterness, and I would have stayed up with you all night had I known how to save a life...! )

( HERE YOU GO, OPHELIA! XDD )

[Heavily warded to Stephen]

Stephen, I have the Demonstrattus, and a few of the publications you asked for. Rookwood told me that the others are in DEEP STORAGE, and encouraged me to return next week for them! But please, won't you come over now? I mean, I'm uncomfortable enough in this house, all alone...! Nevermind when Kinjala is here! Honestly, Stephen, it's been over a month since I last saw you in person! Please DO come to Chichester! I've taken a sick day so I could meet with you! That is to say, I'm somewhat ill, but with nothing contagious, I assure you!

[/Ward]

I must apologise to the Israeli consulate for abandoning them today; I was taken quite ill, unfortunately! But it's nothing, nothing at all, compared with my father's condition. I'm afraid he is doing rather poorly, for those of you who knew him in his prime! Frederick Selwyn, I fear, is not long for this world...!

[Warded to Nicholas Selwyn]

Because I have made up my mind; I would rather end his suffering now, than to prolong it even further! I'm certain it's what Di would have me do, as well! Please, take him off your damned poisons!

[/Ward]

If you would like to pay any last respects to him, well -- I shall hopefully return to work tomorrow, but my Aunt is here all day with him; she can let you in, if you so desire to see him!

[Warded PRIVATE]

I don't want anyone to pay their "respects" to the utter MONSTER, quite frankly. I want to announce his CRIMES to the WORLD-- but then, our family name would be disgraced! I can't allow that to happen! I mean, our good name is the only thing I have left -- without my sister, my mother, or, soon enough, my father! Why, I shan't even have Uncle Nicholas, after my father is dead and gone...! What a depressing thought, really...

[/Ward]

[Heavily warded private to Stephen Croaker]

Stephen, I am... dreadfully afraid I am in trouble at work. I mean, my superior, Rodolphus Lestrange, had it out with me last week about my so-called "lack of charm." I mean, I know I'm not the most charming of men, particularly now that I have so many things on my mind, but still... I didn't think it warranted being chewed out by the Adviser to Minister Dark Lord, after all! I mean, I am afraid I'm thisclose to being sacked -- or worse still, killed -- for "ruining Great Britain's image among the international community!"

I mean, Stephen, I need some help out of this mess. I mean to say... do you have a couple of spare bedrooms my father and I could live in, should it come to... hiding from the Knights Death Eaters?

[/End ward]

[Warded completely PRIVATE]

I cannot do this anymore. I simply... cannot. I need some help, from somewhere -- but if Stephen refuses to help me, as he rightly ought to after all I've put him through already... I don't know where else I can go for help. Surely not to Diana; she must hate me after all she's been through these past six months, without me intervening on her behalf!

No, if Stephen refuses me, I am indeed all alone in the world... What a disturbing thought, really! If only I had treated Benjamin well after his family... well...

It's too late now to wonder about what I might have done differently back then -- and anyhow, I was only protecting Di from his influence...!

Oh Di... What evil influences are you under now?

[/End ward]

[Warded private to Diana Selwyn]

Di, are you all right? I heard you were still alive out there, and... well... I have missed you dearly!

[/End ward]

I shall be spending the weekend in Tel Aviv; I am starting off tomorrow, in fact. It's a business trip, so I'm afraid there will be no sight-seeing, and probably no trinkets or curios bought for my friends, I am sorry to say!

Uncle Nicholas, I do hope my father isn't too much of a burden upon you for the entire weekend. I mean to say, I am sorry this is such short notice, but... duty calls, after all!

I have always been loath to put much personal information on these journals, but knowing there are other academics writing here, I will venture this much:

I fail to understand how I survived last term without my assistant. Just today I was attempting to finish marking the third-years' first quizzes, so I would be aware of where they stood in case any of them attended my office hours this weekend. One of the calculations was intended to demonstrate how a particular "auspicious" name will return to the baseline of 7, when one returns to the mean.

...I have a paper before me that managed to average 9 out of that name. I can't even figure out how. L Remus, I fear this will be a long year for us.

[Warded to Diana]
I'm meeting his friend tonight, but are you sure you're quite... safe with this young man of yours?
