Thank you, sir. That was dead helpful. I'll be back next Wednesday, definitely.

I'm glad you found our review session helpful, Mr Weasley. I've been most pleased with the effort put forth by you and your fellow newcomers to the subject, and I'm certain you would all continue to work just as hard to prepare for your OWLs, but as your professor it is incumbent upon me to prepare you as well as I can.

You and your cohort are welcome to stop in anytime you'd like some extra time to review. We will, alas, need to confine ourselves to theoretical discussion alone outside class hours, but I have faith in your ability to excel despite this unfortunate handicap.

Regards,
Professor Dolohov

I'll be there as well.

Thank you, Antonin Nikolaevich. I appreciate our meetings ever so much

I am at your disposal whenever you are in need of professorial assistance, Miss Parkinson; my door is always open to you all.

Regards,
Antonin Nikolaevich

Private Message to Antonin Nikolaevich

You must know just how much that means, sir.

Especially given the current climate.

It's so good to see you back on your feet again.

It is very good to be back on my feet, though of course the difficulty after a long illness is in accustoming oneself to how rapidly the world around one seems to have changed when one was ill. Still, I am pleased at the prospect of being able to devote myself to the castle's matters more vigorously than I have been able.

And I do, in fact, know precisely how much value to place on a professor with his student's best interests at heart; I had several of my own during my own years in Hogwarts, and valued them greatly. I have been charged with the task of your education by Our Lord himself, and I will attend that task with as much diligence as I might. You and your fellows may, if nothing else, rely on that.

I hope you will continue to feel as though my classroom and my office can be refuges to you and to your fellows as often as you find yourselves in need.

In service,
Antonin
