I felt like I was studying for my Transfiguration OWLs all over again. I refuse to write any more essays or touch any more textbooks for at least a month.

But it’s all fixed and that’s what matters. Chase is fine. And I think I saw far more of him than I ever... Erm. Anyway. Right, sorry it took so long

You're going to need to come in this week. Peter, Amory and Claire are all going to be out.

[7thborn]

I can take my tables back, Blue. It'll be a tad slow but I can manage.

[Pause.]

Any idea how long they'll be out?

[playstheblues]

Sure.

Two days, they tell me.

[7thborn]

[... sigh. Ginny is not pleased in the slightest. But.]

I owe them all for covering my shifts, anyway.

[playstheblues]

Yeah well everyone owes me so once everyone is done camping and exploring and getting injured I'm taking a few days off.

[7thborn]

Well deserved for putting up with the lot of us, in my opinion. I didn't mean to be difficult, Blue.

[Ginny never means to be difficult but knows that she is and never exactly chooses to turn off that particular quality. It's one of her... charms.]

[playstheblues]

I know you don't.

I'm not actually mad. Just exhausted.

[7thborn]

I understand entirely.

Anything else I can do?

[playstheblues]

I'll just be glad to see you in.

[7thborn]

I've been working bit by bit for a few weeks, now. Honestly, I'm just as glad to take my old schedule back. I need to keep busy and not just with essays.

[playstheblues]

Well, back to your usual schedule, anyway.

[7thborn]

With a bit extra. I don't mind it.
