ORDER ONLY: Terry's Birthday
Jan. 15th, 2009 08:13 pmWell today was Terry's birthday and would you believe that Fred and George Weasley got him a birthday present! Or, anyway, Mrs Weasley sent things and they gave them to him and they're saying to people that it was to get well soon but they know and I know that it was a birthday present.
And Madam Pince was cleaning out the old books that no one uses anymore, like the old edition of Ancient Runes Made Easy and a copy of Great Wizards of the Twentieth Century with half the pages torn out (but it's still useful because it's alphabetical and so we still have all of names M through Z) and she gave them to me and so I gave them to Terry, because he can't come read anything he likes in the library, and there were about fifteen of them and when I saw the Headmistress she gave me a bow to put on them (thank you Headmistress) and Madam Pince let me make a birthday card with the inks I was using on the Pretiosissimum Donum Dei, even though of course I couldn't tell her that I was giving him the books too.
The only thing that would have made it better would have been if Terry wasn't so afraid of Mr Lupin, but I think that perhaps if he would only just get to know Mr Lupin he wouldn't be so scared, because he'd never bite anyone, not even if the Lord Protector told him to himself! And I know that not everybody in the Order thinks so and I'm sorry because you all probably know him better than me, but you haven't talked to him in years and years, and I'm sure I'm right!!
But in any case Terry is out of the Hospital Wing and I think he had a good birthday.
