PROFESSOR MINERVA MCGONAGALL's portrait is rather fond of being able to say all the things she could not, on the subject of her years as Headmistress. With Headmistress Vector's assistance and permission, she grants periodic interviews posthumously, which colours the narrative on the history of the liberation considerably, depending on whether her ( Read more... ) -

Hogwarts!
It is pleasant to be back at Hogwarts.
It is even more pleasant to be able to formally announce that I will be returning as Headmistress this year.
I look forward to seeing your smiling faces, dear students.

Order Only: Infighting
As you all have seen, things are rather a mess around New London these days.
I do not believe that the minds of the Selwyn conspirators hold anything that could compromise me-not truly. (I might have to dance around the fact that I knew Selwyn's purpose when he asked me to bring him Felix Felicis, but I believe that is more than possible.) Yet they ( Read more... ) -
Order Only: the book
Charles Kass, Hertfordshire.
Alise Sinclair, New London.
Mikhail Christiansen, Scarborough, Yorkshire.
Mayuko Kawamoto, Manchester.
Kathleen Byrne, Killarney.
The name 'Charles Kass' seemed familiar. I looked back. He had a brother-several years ago. One we did not succeed in saving. The parents must have reused the name.

Private Message to Antonin Dolohov + Rabastan Lestrange
Merely a quick note to say: I am quite aware of the goings-on at the castle. I am expecting quite a round of callers today, as a result. Should you have any messages for me to pass on, I would be more than happy to do so, either explicitly or not.
I imagine that, in this moment, our interests align.

Order Only: Private Message to Severus Snape
Severus, by now you surely have winkled every last thing there is to know about the events of last night out of Miss Granger. She has been markedly uncommunicative with me. Under normal circumstances, I would not hesitate to pursue her for information, but she likely knows less than you can find out from Tosha and Poppy.
In short: tell me what has ( Read more... ) -
Order Only: Private message to Severus Snape and Poppy Pomfrey
You are needed in Umbridge's office. Now.
Ask me no questions; I have no answers. I am given to understand that the situation is dire and that at least one young person is potentially in a bad way.

Order Only: Private Message to Hermione Granger and Harry Marvolo
Child, do you know anything about students in places they should not be? The castle still considers me the Headmistress enough to warn me when students are causing trouble, it seems.
It is too much to hope, I suppose, that it has not told that woman as well.

A lovely day.
And many thanks to Diane Haley, architect of the day.
Although I might have been short with you on my first day back in New London, Diane, you were quite right to say that what I truly needed was some witches' chatter, and this was precisely what you provided.
It seems only yesterday that Diane-along with Mrs. Geoffrey Dunstan-was sitting in the ( Read more... )
