Private Message to Lana Sandoval-Pennifold
I'm sure you're terribly busy as always but I just wanted to say it was beyond nift to get a chance to catch up last night. You look like you're so happy with your life--and it's easy to see why. Ned's such a gentleman and the way your career is going, and all, it's like you've got everything anyone could want. No one could deserve it more.
It really was like a parade of our old schoolmates, wasn't it? Did you happen to see Rohani and Goshal? I spoke to them for all of about five minutes but they're both dead jealous of your wedding (still). Tamblyn's just as amusing as ever, isn't he? He and Cox had me in stitches, tearing apart everyone's robes and all those dusty old witches' frowning whenever the band played something written since 1962. When the King of Misrule told Madam Millingham-Kennilworthy to start a conga line? I've never seen quite that shade of red. Have you?
And I figured out who I expected to see and didn't: Weasley and Clearwater. Of course, I'd wondered whether they'd come anyway so soon after his dad, but given that the other Weasleys were honoured by the Repopulation programme I figured they must be coming. Yet not a sign. I suppose they decided they'd better stay in and save their sickles for a rainy day!
Anyway. It was so good to see you, and see you looking smashing, as always.
Your Friend,
Padma
