message to Madam Umbridge

[alt_megan]

Healer Kerr said I could get back to searching the rest of the Gryffindor dorm with you whenever you are ready. Truly, I am all right. Most of the screaming was surprise. And my arm didn't really fall off, of course. It was one of those Bouncing Body-Part Jolly Japes things from Zonko's. I accidentally set it off. Healer Kerr dispelled the illusion and put everything to rights. So I can come back right away if you want me.

Oh! Yes, everything is fine. I am assisting Madam Umbridge as my guardian so kindly gave permission for me to do. There is nothing to worry about. Everything will be in tip-top shape when people get back.

Oh, I say, that sounds well interesting. What have you been doing for her? I expect that'll be a splendid advantage to you in a year or two when you're looking for work. A reference from someone such as Madam Umbridge would be jolly useful, what?

I helped her and Madam Hooch go through their checklist of things to inspect. She said she has to know that all of Hogwarts is in order. Madam Umbridge, not Madam Hooch. Madam Hooch was just helping. Anywiz we looked at everything, and some things twice because there was a smudge on the list you can't just think, you have to know.

It is very important for someone in my circumstances to do her best to excel in spite of them. I want to make my guardian proud of me. So she does not worry about what will become of me when I go out into the world to make my way.

I am very sorry I did not answer you before. Madam Umbridge punished corrected me for not answering you. So I am very sorry for it. I will try to do better, and to have better manners. Manners are twice as important for halfbloods as for everybody else, they say. And I am very sorry it took so long today to finally get to this. We did Slytherin today, and Skele-Gro goes faster when it's tiny bones but Healer Kerr had to finish his paperwork first.
