"It's only another week or so."

[cheyinka]

Are we really that close to the end of term? Two more weeks? The context to the subject line is Hermione telling Evelyn to just keep the portkey until the end of term, which on the one hand makes me really nervous (the end of term is usually extra-exciting, and this year it seems like we need to have Minerva (or, one supposes, Albus) be killed by someone, which should be extra excitement), and on the other hand makes me really, really nervous (since when has "oh it's only [short length of time], it'll be fine" gone well for anyone?).

It appears part of the reason may have been for Siz to see something.

That's slightly less worrying, but I still can't help feeling that they are going to need this Cinnabaris, and probably sooner rather than later.

[teceler]

I would be unsurprised if they did, especially considering we have an end-of-year event sometime soon. (Which is... concerning).

Clearly the players don't want me to get any work done today.

Though on that front, and regarding the conversation between Poppy and Dumbledore afterwards, there's something that strikes me as Painfully Fundamentally Albus about his position that the brave, bold, and daring thing to do right now is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.

(Though he's right, scrambling Siz's brains would cause an unfortunate uproar.)
