I'm glad I found you today so we could talk more in person, even if it was mostly about music.
I'm not sure Mother likes my playing guitar, I think she's worried I'll stop drawing and painting, and it's always been her that I've sent most of my drawings to, so you see how that goes. But the difference is that I like drawing and painting in a serious way, really studying it and trying out different techniques, and with guitar it's mostly for fun. For now, anyway.
I really do want to see your song, though. Maybe we could come up with some music to go with it, chords and things. Oh, and if you ever want to try out my guitar yourself you can, of course. It really belongs to Father but I know he won't mind if you borrow it.
I remember the topiaries, the topiaries were brilliant. The Forbidden Forest, not so much. Maybe it was different for me, though. The whole time I was thinking about something bad happening to Harry, as usual, but there was you to worry about, too. It was sort of exciting to think about the experience after the fact, but in that particular moment I was too busy being weighted down with dread.
That's what I meant when I said that I'm not curious about things outside the realm of usual experience. Or I'd much rather just imagine about those things than actually experience them. Which is why we have art and music and such in the first place, really.
I'm pretty sure the Razzer is going to get duelling club going again. I overheard Professor Acton at supper, volunteering to help him out. Too bad, I bet he was really hoping that Professor Sinistra would volunteer instead!
