Order Only: Private message to Ron

[alt_ginny]

The Twins came by a little while ago and got Mum out of bed with ice water. She was pretty cross. They told her it was for her own good.

I think they were actually glad she got cross, she sounded more like herself.

Anyway we had tea together (Mum and I did, while the Twins dried out her bed and so on) and talked about my classes. She found my book list. I guess I was worried over nothing; she just wanted to know how I was going to keep myself safe around Dolohov. How worried do you think I actually need to be? He's never treated us any differently from anyone else, as far as I can tell, it's not like he actually has a blood feud with our family even though he killed two of our uncles, and Percy, or at least Mum thinks he was responsible for Percy. (Because of the galleon she found after the funeral.)

I had all my arguments ready for why I ought to take Dark Arts, but she didn't seem cross, exactly. It was like having a conversation about it with Sirius, almost, she was sensible about it.

You did better than I did, so you know. No need to worry you came last in the family.

And no use crying over Arithmancy or Astronomy, either.

As for History of Magic? I worry about those people who stay awake, they're the ones need serious help.
