Save your condolences for someone who cares. My child is dead. Words won't bring her back. My father's youngest children are now motherless and they will always know that she died a murderess. There is no comfort you can offer that will sate my despair.

Honestly, if this child has one more accident, I'm through. I don't want them anymore.

How dare you do this to my husband and not expect to be caught?! There will be justice. I swear it.

My husband has been acting remarkably strange as of late.

Silencing charms work marvelously well when babies won't shut their bleeding traps.

Children are absolutely vile.

BED REST?

I suspect my father's wife at least one house elf will be killed before this is through.

I promise you that I will kill someone if I do not receive a proper massage and pampering within the next hour. Proper pampering does include cherries. I want a bleeding bowl of cherries. Now.

Honestly, there must be a charm to block idiotic entries from one's reader.

The sudden abundance of random clamor and chaos occurring in the wizard world over the past week has made me somewhat envious. I've yet to witness an act anymore tumultuous than my younger siblings having a row, which is hardly poignant or entertaining, over the remaining cauldron cakes. Fortunately, they both will be returning to Hogwarts after today and the raucous sounds of their loud inane arguments over a shared washroom will cease. Their impending absence will do little to alleviate my boredom, however. A manor emptied of its inhabitants is nothing more than a dull creaky forest of rooms with house elves and family ghosts. It is an obnoxiously tame and stagnant existence when you alone occupy the manor's upper floors. I believe I need to find a few worthy and tolerable house guests to correct this loathsome imbalance.

Why, Augustus! It has been too long. Tell me, what is new in your life? Collecting rare bobbles and words, I hear! We absolutely must make the time to catch-up. I know of a wonderfully quaint bookshop hidden away in Madras that I know you will adore. I do hope you have time in your weekend for a trip with a little treasure hunting and perhaps some light recreation? To know I'd be visiting such a warm and lavish locale without the proper wizard to escort me would certainly put the kibosh on my day.

Absolutely ridiculous. As if stealing away an exonerated wizard's family makes you any less of a villain.

Is this the Crusades? Shall I make a running tally of martyrs to be avenged?

How thoughtful of my dear brother to procure a wizard of proper quality to escort me to the ball. Imagine what could have transpired if I had arrived stag or missed the gala altogether. Pity that we will never know.

The real tragedy here is that two strong examples of wizards are being locked away from streets that desperately need their presence, for crimes they did not commit.
