Aftermath (new post)

Hey look! Tosha's awake! Oh brave new world, that has such creatures in it...

ETA: And Slughorn has shown up to brew Cinnabaris! Wonders unceasing...

Linus, for once I actually like your poetry. Well done. And congratulations on coming to your senses.

It's a sestina! Isn't it? Without an envoi. That's actually a pretty sophisticated work. Whoever's playing Linus knows their way around poetry. And it's also hilariously Linus.

Yeah, I was really impressed by it! And, as you say, that metaphor is so, so Linus (and I also really like it; this poem just made me happy).

For you, the envoi:

’Tis clear that single strength protects us not;
We are up to the task only in sum,
In arithmancy and life’s care alike.


Love,
Linus' player
