I had an interesting experience a couple of days ago... bumped into Hermione Granger. She's such a lovely girl, and it was a pleasure to have lunch with her. It was unfortunate to hear of some suspicious activity, but it may turn out to be nothing serious. There was, however, some good news from home. Apparently Draco Malfoy (yes, Malfoy) is opening a school for pre-Hogwarts children and would like for me to be a part of the teaching staff. Hermione said he'd been trying to contact me for a while, I must remember to give a firm talking to Gershom about disrupting important owls. And send him away with some letters to old friends. There seems to be a lot I've missed out on while I've been gone, and I may not be able to get back home until after the next full moon. At least I'll be able to have a proper goodbye with the Pack.
