Seti read through the letter... twice. She was more than a little irritated with her cousin and his lack of communication with her. Unfortunatley for her, she was by nature a logical person and so she realized the hypocrasy of the thought as soon as she'd completed it. After all, communication goes both ways.

She hoped that the reason it had taken him so long to owl her was embarassment, though, and not just that he'd been so... wrapped up... in Gilderoy that he hadn't thought of her at all.

Again, though, if she were being honest, she'd been so busy herself with Moody and his thoughts about becoming Minister, with getting ready to teach (and not her primary subject), with her worry for Hestia... well, she hadn't thought to much about him, either.

With a sigh, she pulled out quill and parchment, and replied to her cousin.

A different - yet no less irritated - owl delivered the next letter Seti received, later into the day.

Seti read through her darling cousin's latest correspondence and sighed. How was she supposed to know about things like absent wives.

When was it enough? When do you give up on your best friend? It was a question that haunted Seti, and even now, 25 years later and with him back in her life, she still felt a crushing guilt for having given up on him. Oh, she knew he didn't blame her. But it didn't erase the guilt.

She picked up a quill and parchment to reply.
