    note to Luna in the master bedroom of a small house near Lattes
    *a small red envelope is propped up against the coffee pot on the breakfast tray. "Be Mine" is written on it and it opens to reveal a magnet/bottle cap opener*

    Owl post to Ambre Bessette
    *translated from the French*

    Dear mademoiselle Bessette

    I've reviewed the contract, considered the terms and find them in order and acceptable. With the repairs as discussed completed and the addition of improved access to the water it would indeed be an ideal holiday home. Pursuant to our conversation, please find enclosed a draft to my Gringotts account and all in order. I will pick up the keys Friday afternoon.

    I appreciate all your help with this at such short notice.

    Cordially yours,
    Bill Weasley

    *attached is a signed contract and a bank draft*

    in the kitchen of the Hollow
    A recipe in Bill's handwriting for chicken soup with French dumplings is on the work top with tick marks next to the ingredients. It is liberally dusted with flour and the flour is spilled next to the bowl of beaten egg. An avocado sits on the cutting board next to the abandoned knife and a bowl of freshly washed and dried salad greens. A covered pot simmers fragrantly.

    An apron dusted with flour is discarded on the kitchen table, another is on the floor with sundry other garments. The chairs are pushed askew and there is soft, breathless laughter coming from under the kitchen table.

    Windows, door, and the rest are still pending, but it's got a roof!

    Papers left in neat piles on the coffee table of the library at the Hollow
    *A small piece of field stone weighs down one pile, and a slate roofing tile weighs down the other.

    *Visible on under the piece of field stone is a rough floor plan and a list:*

    Reasons for having a shed:
    Climate controlled recreational curse breaking
    No slipping on snow
    No need to maintain artefact vault (10Gal/annum savings)
    A hob for coffee whilst curse breaking
    No longer allowed to curse break in garden***


    Collect field stone - summoned & sorted
    Order:
    Fast growing all season turf seed √
    Slate roofing tiles √
    Oak structural beams √
    Concrete suitable for E class matrices √
    Mortar suitable for M class matrices √
    Windows √
    nails, screws, chimney damper, hearthstone, pipes, taps/basin, etc √
    Shelving, furniture, hob, floo hookup?, sundries

    *The other pile is entirely covered by the roofing tile but appears to be a stack of detailed blueprints and ward maps*

    Very carefully arranged in the master bedroom of the Hollow
    *Waiting for Luna to wake up and notice is a tray on the bedside table with coffee ready to brew and a breakfast of bite sized chocolate glazed profiteroles, a fruit salad of jewel-like berries and tangerine sections, toast and a delicate mushroom omelette kept hot and fresh with charms. On the tray is a heavy but moderately sized gaily wrapped present with another smaller present on top of it, and an even smaller present perched on top of that.*

    *Very stealthy rustling with a purpose from the bed indicates that someone is awake, but breakfast is unlikely to be noticed for at least another half hour or so*

    Been a while since the last. Odd doing this without Jerome lurking somewhere waiting to check that I've done it. Don't even really know why I'm writing this but it seems right, yeah? Think about the differences between this year and the last. Merlin, the differences.... )

    Owl post to Eddie Holmes, the Quibbler
    *via dictaquill and epistolary charm in black ink for Bill, and blue ink for Luna*

    Holmes,

    I'm kidnapping the boss. Doing some work out of the country on a short term contract and I'm taking Luna with me. I promise to bring her back in good condition a week from today.

    B-

    He needs more information than that. Tell him to have Char run the meeting with the department heads....

    She has to be told? *the sound of a pillow being thwacked* Right! It's getting all of this. Is there anything else you want to tell him?

    Yes, otherwise she's likely to just cancel it. And don't forget to tell him that since I won't be there, the proof needs to be approved by three of the heads. *the sound of a kiss* Go on.

    Ah, yeah... yeah.... *rustle of bed clothes and then a throat clearing* Erm, I suppose if there's an emergency, you can be reached at, erm, The Franklin Hotel, New York.... *another rustle*

    *a groan* That's good enough, really, I think. Mmm... more interested in this....

    Mmm... portkey in.... Don't you need to pack? *a rustle and a squeeze and the slow rasp of stubble*

    *a gasp* Yes, oh... Mmm... I suppose that I will need clothes....

    Not yet.... mmm, oh.... Erm, if I'm working during the day, you'll need something, yeah.

    *a soft sucking sound*

    *a sharp inhale and a gulp* And something swanky to wear to the... god to the... ooooh....

    *a gasp and a slow groan*

    Fu-! *a choked groan and a scrabbling for his wand lost in the sheets* Epistipostus!

    Owl delivery to Charlie Weasley
    Happy Birthday, Charlie!

    Luna says 'happy birthday' too, and thinks that I should have thought up something better than booze, but I say, what's better than booze for my brothers? Hope you like the enclosed. Not sure they go together. Fruit salad, maybe?

    Love,
    Bill

    *The owl bears a gift wrapped crate that expands on being set down. Opened, it reveals a large bottle of fine gin, and a dozen large, carefully wrapped red dragon fruit.*

    Owl post to Ginny Weasley, Celyn Cottage, Wales
    Gin,

    I don't know Thursday? I think Thursday will work. I'll come to your office.

    No jumper. Think she's saving it for Christmas.

    Love,

    Conversation in Luna's office at the Hollow
    *footsteps and the hasty push of the door which creaks to a stop slightly ajar.*

    - Right, no. You can't say that and just walk off. You think I'm too withdrawn? You think I am too withdrawn? I'm not the one pulling away, shutting the other out and hiding in your office!

    Owl post to Ginny Weasley, Celyn Cottage, Wales
    Dear Ginny,

    The picture is brilliant, thank you, and I'd love to have lunch with you this week. Free as a snitch these days, I can meet you anywhere, anytime.

    It's good to hear from you, little sister, really good.

    Love,
    Bill

    Conversation in the Hollow living room
    *a rustle*

    Hmmm....

    Were you aware that Blibbering Humdingers have been seen congregating in the Shetland Isles on alternate Thursdays during the dark of the moon? I did not know this.

    Conversation in the Hollow living room
    *footsteps*

    I like this midweek holiday, Mrs Weasley. Feels a bit clandestine.

    But here it is, dusted and cleared of anything that might be malicious magic. All that's left it to open the padlock and see what's inside.

    *the sound of a heavy trunk being set gently on the floor*

    Scattered about the desk in the library of the Hollow
    *There is a completed inventory of curses present on the artefacts, furnishings, and assorted bric-a-brak in the Rook, ranked by risk assessment and the ones that have been disarmed. Also present are notes on curse management for the instruments in the Hollow music room, suitable for archiving with the provenance of the antiques. There is an empty plate with crumbs and a short stack of replied correspondence. The computer open to the next 9mos of Douglas' tutoring with lesson plans and a tentative OWL strategy laid out. Bejeweled is open to a high score of 54,260,217.*
