[PRIVATE TO LYSSANDRA]
As it turns out, it seems that I have a niece that I never knew about. I don't know precisely her age, but she's a seventh year at Hogwarts this year. Her name is Rosamund Wyndham. The name was basically all that I could beat get out of the smarmy bastard.

Oh, and love, did you see the Tattler?

The ingenuity of recent contraptions are nothing short of, or are at least, amusing. It's a shame, though, that most occupy so much of their time sitting about with their quill in hand. There's got to be something better for the lot of you to do, right?

[PRIVATE TO SELF]

I can't stand these bloody diaries, but they certainly keep you on top of things, don't they? Clever things, these little writing hexes are. I just wonder how secure they really are.

The fucking tattler indeed. And ... okay, a niece?

Awkward. You think she babysits?

The bugger just can't stay out of the rags, can he?

Uh I haven't met her yet. We're supposed to meet up at the end of the week, though. Honestly, I'm not sure what to expect. If she's anything like Ian, you wouldn't want her watching your goldfish, let alone your kid.

Apparently not. Something about his being a rock star and doing drugs, I guess.

Er, well. Let me know how it goes.

Right. Are there going to be complications with the baby because of his shite?

I plan to. You're welcome to come along, if you'd like. I'll understand if you're not up to it, but it'd certainly ease the tension.

As far as I know, the kid is just fine -- no thanks to him.

And ... I guess I could come, if you don't think it would be awkward as all fuck.

It'd be less awkward. I'm more comfortable around you than anyone else. Just relax.

Well, I suppose I could come in that case. Flatterer.

If the truth is flattering, then yes. I guess that'd be an accurate description. Luckily enough for you, the truth usually does happen to be rather flattering.

I don't know what to call the girl. I addressed her as Rosamund in my letters to her, but she kept signing hers with "R. Wyndham". What the hell does that mean? She'd prefer I call her by something more formal?

Probably means she's scared shitless of her uncle that she's never met, more likely.

And you seem to be flattering all over the place today, by the looks of it. Trashy brunettes are your style now?

I'm not good with ki Well, hopefully, things go over well. I'm not okay with abandoning family. Unless, of course, it's Ian. I can't automatically assume that this kid is anything like him, though. It'd be like saying that your kid is gonna pop out just like Quirke, which also isn't fair. She deserves a fair chance, right? And it'd be nice to show her that her pop is the only git on this side of the family.

I've still got the cute blonde preference, so no. I'm just trying to let her down lightly. She's got quite the reputation, besides that.

I'm sure that it'll be fine, Tadhg. You're a remarkably likable person for being such an ass most of the time.

And she certainly does have a ... reputation. Model or no.

Thank you, it comes naturally.

She probably isn't used to being turned down, I guess you could say. I'm sure she'll recover.

I'm sure she will.

And I suppose you deserve some ... reward for being so 'noble'.

I do have some incentive, but I wouldn't object to a little more on top of it. What you've got in mind is a little more interesting than a gold star, I hope?

I can certainly think of something better for a handsome man such as yourself to be doing.

I would love some company, however.

I don't know many women who could down a bottle of Shiraz on their own, so I suppose that's understandable.

Well, I could.

But do I want to, that's the real question.

You'll find that I'm completely fucking daft not a mind reader.

I can, however, take a guess, and while I'd be honored to keep your company tonight, I have a few pressing obligations to attend to. With the activity in these journals, though, it seems as though I may be one of the very few existing people with more things to do than things to talk about.
