Sarah!

Sarah, I went to go water the Deity office plants like I always do every week, and the building-

It's gone!

[charmedillusion]

What?

It just...disappeared?

[snake_slayer]

No..no I mean, it exploded! Someone blew it to pieces.

[charmedillusion]

Are you okay? Where are you? Are you with Ron?

[snake_slayer]

No, Ron went off to get lunch, we separated a little while ago.

My ears are ringing, but I'm all right. Where are you?

[charmedillusion]

Is it madness over there? Will it be hard to find him?

Thank God you're all right - I'm fine. I'm at home, but I'm leaving right now.

[snake_slayer]

Well, there's no fallen bits landed anywhere else, but there are people running around and it's a bit panicky..

No, Sarah, you should stay inside. They could blow up another building..whoever they are.

[charmedillusion]

Neville Longbottom. If you think I can stay here knowing that you're both out there somewhere - especially if another building could be blown up - then...I don't even know what to say, but I couldn't possibly!

[snake_slayer]

The apartment's warded against attacks, Sarah. You'll be safe there. I'll find Ron, and we'll go back to the office, and...see what happens from there.

[charmedillusion]

You're going back there? You're not coming straight here?

[snake_slayer]

I have to go, Sarah. Mr. Styles'll wonder where I am if I don't go back.

[charmedillusion]

Oh, right. Because the gigantic explosive building mustn't get in the way of work or anything.

...I'm sorry, Neville. I didn't mean that. I'm really worried. And I can't stand just sitting here.

[snake_slayer]

It's..all right, Sarah. But really, you don't know how he can get sometimes. Better to at least turn in and ask for a half day off, than not go back at all.

[charmedillusion]

Be safe. Both of you. Please.

[snake_slayer]

We will. I promise.
