Private Message to Professor Sinistra

[alt_linus]

After having thought on it further, I confess I am still at a loss as to who might have charmed my handwriting onto Lonsdale's quiz. Thank you for doing me the honour of being quite skeptical that it was my doing. I know that I have made errors in judgement in the past, but never in the realm of falsifying academic matters.

I have considered asking to speak with Professor Dolohov about the incident, but upon reflection I am loathe to take up his time with something of this nature just now. Should I come up with anything, I will let you know.

On a happier note, I've finished copying out that observational data. It is remarkable how soothing working with astronomical charts can be; everything in its place, and moving as one expects, once one understand the underlying principles.

Linus -

I'd quite advise against bothering Professor Dolohov, yes. Should you come up with anything further, bring it to me, and I'll update him at a quiet moment. I did manage to get a word with Professor Vector, and she is glad we sorted the problem out. Neither you nor Miss Lonsdale are in any difficulty with her at all.

I'm equally glad the observational data was soothing (and it's quite helpful to me to have it done). I also hope you got your invitation at lunch safely. I did want to let you know we've invited your parents, in large part so I can introduce your father to mine. I rather expect they'll be mutually amused, and perhaps amusing. (Ptolemy and Karo are also invited, though you'd have realised that already, I'm sure.)
