Daddy

Portia and Celia have been very kind, but still...Ginny, I expect you've heard. The Headmistress called me into her office to tell me, but I suppose word spreads fast around here. I don't think I will want to come to dinner tonight, but I'd really like to see you, if you can come to the Ravenclaw common room. The Prefects said that they would watch for you and let me know when you're there, and we'll find a place to go away for awhile to talk.

I can't believe I'll never be able to go home again. And that I'll never see him again.

Luna,

I am so sorry. I know you will always have a home with us. I just know that mum and dad will allow you to stay with us. Right mum? They wouldn't split us up, you are like my sister. Better yet, you are my sister. Just drink that tea I gave you tonight, and I will meet you outside of your house in the morning and we can go to breakfast together and if we have time go for a quite walk around the lake. I think you need to talk more than we could tonight.

I love you Luna, my whole family does. I know you are not in a good place right now, but hold on to that.

Try to get some rest, and I will see you in the morning.

Yes, dear. Of course it's very soon for Luna to have to think about this, but your father and I have already talked it over, and as I told Luna, we want to talk with her about it, too. There will always be a place for her at the Burrow, and if she wants, your father and I would be glad to make it a formal arrangement.

Thanks so much for coming right away. It helped better than anything, really.

Of course, I've been through this before. But that really doesn't help as much as you would hope it might. And this time I don't have any family members left to be with me through it.

It was no problem really. You know I will be there for you anytime you need me. If you need anything else tonight send me word. And don't forget your blanket.
