I'd like to apologise for the disruptions I provided in class yesterday. I know this is a stressful time for everyone preparing for OWLs, and I certainly didn't make it easy for everyone else to learn.

The punishment that was placed on me by Madame Umbridge was that I was placed under Imperius and given orders that I was to treat Sally-Anne in a way deserving of her station, and that I was to talk about how she was inferior whenever talking about her or to her. On the last day of the punishment, I was to say these things whenever we were in proximity, which meant that regardless of what I intended or felt, I didn't have control over what I said and when.

I received this punishment because I spent my Easter hols revising with Sally-Anne. Madame Umbridge thought I needed a lesson in propriety as a result. Thank you, Madame Umbridge. I certainly learned a great deal.

It's done.

Unless she decides to put it back on again.

I wanted to wait until after breakfast just to make sure.

I'm so very sorry.

I was terrified that I'd say something about Sally-Anne's mum, or the lock, or what we'd done over hols, because it just came spilling out in some sort of horrid stream and every time I tried to stop it, it got worse.

But I didn't.

I said a lot of things that were awful, and wrong, and horrid, but at least I didn't do that.

Oh. And last night, Cedric and Linus and I started working on a list of her punishments to document them for the Board. It was a bit of a challenge, but we avoided mentioning Sally-Anne, and I took notes while Linus talked.

I think he might be someone to add to the galleon list. Maybe.

Anyways. If anyone has anything they'd like to add, that would be useful. Evelyn, Hydra, Luna, I didn't know as much about what she's done to the younger years, so that'd be helpful.

Mmm. I'm really not sure about Linus. He's very clever, and that would be useful.

But some of the things he's said about Professor Dolohov makes me think he wants very much to impress him. I'm not sure what effect that would have on his loyalties.

He doesn't like Umbridge. He told me she doesn't have a logical bone in her body. And he's been trying to help the halfblooded students with revision.

I think we can work on the other stuff, but it's a start.

You didn't slip in any way on the information you were protecting for us, and that can't have been easy. You should be proud that you managed that

It's good to have you back.

Dudley says 'hello.'

Tell him 'hello' back.

And that what he said made me laugh.

I will. He's really good at that. Making people laugh.

I kept trying to say that I didn't mean it, and that I was sorry, and it twisted everything into knots.

Please forgive me?

I didn't mean a single word. And every time I'd say something, it was like I was screaming on the inside. Because it was so very wrong.

I am so sorry about your birthday.

I've missed you so much.

Oh, Sally-Anne.

I knew you didn't mean it and there's nothing to forgive, that was Umbridge who did it and not you.

I missed you too.

I feel so weak and stupid for not being able to fight it.

That's how she wanted you to feel. That was part of the punishment.

Hardly anyone can resist the Imperius Curse, it's really REALLY hard, that's why you need a license to put it on people and why it used to be 'unforgivable.'

You know Ron couldn't fight it either, when he's had compulsion hexes put on him that were a lot less serious than Imperius. Or Neville, when Harry put the Invictus Jinx on him first year. Or Hermione when Draco cursed her to say 'master' at the end of every sentence no matter who she was talking to.

I've got your present upstairs.

And after this term is over, I'm going to give you the best belated birthday party in the history of belated birthdays.

Okay.

That'll be brilliant.

Dear Antonin Nikolaevich;

Thank you for your support and guidance. I appreciate your presence at Hogwarts, and feel truly grateful for the opportunity to be taught by you. I've learned so very much from you, both in the classroom and outside of it, and I hold you in the highest possible esteem.

With all fondness,

Pansy Parkinson.

Thank you, Miss Parkinson, and I must return the compliments; you are a delight to have as a student. I am only sorry I could not help you further without risking greater retaliation against you.

You may, however, wish to let your compatriots know that should they become targets of our -- esteemed -- Headmistress's disproportionate sense of alleged justice, they should see me, and I will do what I might.

I shall, sir.
