Students -- I must apologise I was unable to mark and return your final essays before the end of term. I will return them with the owls bearing your end-of-term marks.
Deepest condolences, meanwhile, must go to several of Hogwarts' own who have lost a loved one, and in such a sudden and public fashion. I am certain Hogwarts students will rise to the occasion to offer whatever support possible to the Weasley family in their time of grief.

Private Message to Stephen Rosier
Date: 2012-12-23 10:34 am (UTC)I'll need to confirm with Gus that they've not made any adjustments to the wards while I've been gone, but assuming they have not -- or if they have, that the changes wouldn't interfere with the resonances -- the Damascene variant of the rite should work. I'll have to work a bit at it, but I will almost certainly be able to make the necessary translations in time.
Given Our Lord's ... uncertain temper of the other evening, I think it would be best if I propose the change myself, as I'll be able to answer His questions, but do be ready in case He would like your thoughts on the matter. I've been up all night chasing references and need at least an hour or two of sleep lest I be too inarticulate in front of Him, but I will be petitioning for audience as soon as I wake.
My own dear brother -- I will do what I might: he is my student, as I was yours. And either way -- bring the boy to me, once things are certain. I will help prepare him.
Yours, as always, and ever mindful of the lessons you taught me,
T

Date: 2012-12-23 03:34 pm (UTC)I am willing to leave the question of what to tell Mr Finnigan, and when, in your capable hands -- but if you would like me to be the one to explain both detail and necessity, I will so you do not have to. I could come by tonight, once I've slept more. Or you may think it kinder to tell him the broadest strokes only, and save the detail for Thursday, in case Our Lord reconsiders -- but He did see the wisdom, after careful consideration.
Yours,
T
