alt_linusMay I call you that? It seems only fitting, as we now share such an important trust, that of the wellbeing of our fellow students.
Speaking of which, I have ordered the elves to be ready with warm milk for all common rooms following tonight's festivities, in case anyone's nerves need a bit of settling. You and I can bear up under the excitement of a visit by the Lord Protector, and do Hogwarts proud, but one cannot expect the same of the younger students. I am relieved that I thought it of now, and not later.
If you think of any other last-minute contingencies, I stand ready to assist.
Oh, and do not fret one tiny bit about your upcoming duties. Someone who has studied performance and has a flair for the dramatic will certainly be able to weather the saying of a few words with grace and aplomb. You'll be fine, I am quite certain. And think of the honour!

Just keep an eye on the Prefects and make sure they're following the instructions I provided last night. Lestrange, Patil, and Finnigan are exempt, of course.
