Personal Correspondence #3
Lucius ~
Your efforts at absurdity demean you. I am not in mourning. Yes, you might have found her poster affixed to my wall under a cloaking charm when we were lads, but I still maintain that if I'd put it there myself, it would have remained cloaked, no matter what spells you flung at it.
Your condolence card is now ash.
I'm keeping the Ogdens.
However... I'm begging off our weekly tête-à-tête at the Leaky. I'm feeling a bit melancholy, this evening.
Yours ~
Severus
