This decorative Christmas miracle brought to you by Cally, Alecto, and I. And before anyone starts into a panic, the windows are just charmed to make it look like it's snowing. It's still abominably hot if you actually venture outside.
Happy Christmas, darlings.
[Warded to Sirius]
You're a nightmare.

What do you think the color scheme for the Christmas decorations should be?
Silver & White
Gold & White
Green & Silver
Green & Gold
....other? We are not doing red and gold. I can't be festive in any space that looks like a Gryffindor threw up all over it.
We need something with white fur. Maybe antlers. Alecto is there anything in this region that has white fur and/or antlers?

[Fail!Warded to Regulus--defaults to Black Family]
Regulus, you know where babies come from, don't you? I realize you're almost twenty now, but it occured to me that Uncle Orion or Aunt Walburga might not have been the sort to sit down and explain. I suppose Sirius certainly might have, but it probably would have been in the style of 'by the way, people have it on'. Who knows how long they let you run around thinking babies were found under cabbage leaves.
[Warded to Marlene]
Why don't we have a chat, dear?
[Warded to Dedalus]
While arranging a regular meeting might be in mutual bad judgement on both our parts, I was however thinking that at the next skirmish, if you just happened to have your camera and I just happend to have Draco, no one would miss us if we went aside for a bit and took a few photos.
[Warded to Death Eaters]
How were we planning to get to Casablanca? Muggle transportation is absolutely out of the question. I'm not putting Draco in something that might explode, catch on fire, veer dangerously out of control, or reeks of tacky people who probably use bits of camel hoof as toilet paper.
Thorfinn darling, were you able to find a house?
Barty dear, did you arrange a meeting with Eurydice yet? I think I'll tag along with you. I want to talk to her about procuring something special for Lucius for Christmas, anyway.
Also, has anyone seen Doorknob? I sent him out to punish himself hours ago and he still hasn't come back. When I told him to beat his head against a cactus I didn't mean he had to go off into the bloody desert to find one. He could have just used the potted one I bought.

[Warded to Death Eaters (dictated to and written by her house-elf)]
Remember when I said bring something to mark your way through the pyramids?
THIS IS WHY I SAID THAT!
Since magic doesn't work in this miserable Salazar forsaken fortress of nightmares, I did some shopping--and if ever you wondered if buying things is a skill, allow this to be concrete proof that yes, it is. I've brought several healing potions, a few poisons, an invisibility potion, two strength potions, a sleeping draught, a bottle of Garrotting Gas, a fatigue potion, and some of Mrs. Scower's All-Purpose Magical Mess Remover since I've read about what some of you have been doing down here. Along with food, lanterns, and four sticks as that's what I hear muggles use to cook with.
Also a houseelf, but I need him to carry my things so he won't be terribly helpful to any of you.
By the way, Francis you owe me a new pair of shoes and Draco a new pacifier.
Now if someone would kindly GET ME THE DEVIL OUT OF THIS BOOBY TRAP NET I FELL INTO BEFORE WHATEVER IS CRAWLING UP MY LEG REACHES MY HAIR!!
[PUBLIC]
AAAARG THERE'S TWO OF THEM!!

Pick up set of paints I order for Bella's birthday
Second screening of brunettes for Fitz
---Amycus' implication of Alecto & Fitz
First screening of blondes for Thorfinn
---Norweigan, but no French (get in touch with Igor)
Zylphia
Birthday presents for Alecto
---Things She Likes: Reading (the school sort, not the fun sort). Hunting. Fur. Spiders. Maybe I can have something custom made from fur or antler. I should write to Uncle Edgar even though he's a tosser. ← Talk to Evan about all of this.
Shopping. Shopping. Shopping.
[Warded to Rodolphus, Evan, & Rabastan]
Bella's birthday is only ten days away, darlings. Did you have any plans in mind, Rodolphus? I was going to take her out for lunch and I wouldn't want to overlap with any arrangements you might have in the works.

There are not adequate words to express how fortunate I am, nor how grateful.
Thank you.
[Warded to Arthur Weasley]
This is terribly awkward and I will deny ever writing it--however, thank you for your words of encouragement.

I've been having twinges in my stomach all day and after Amycus' talk about lunch I think it must be from hunger. Could some one be a dear a bring me a
What's this puddle doing he---
BELLA!! ALECTO!!
( [(8:47 PM) Warded to Death Eaters] )
Alright, it's starting to get a bit more uncomfortable now. But I still don't see what most women make such a big fuss about. This isn't that bad at all.
Alecto and I were just informed that the Ministry has our location.

Apparently I'm suppose to have a baby bag. But what goes in the baby bag? Snacks?

THERE ARE TWO JUST CHARMING GENTLEMEN HERE, PRESUMABLY AFTER THE DIADEM.
I WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE BEING RESCUED AS I CAN ONLY PRETEND TO BE IN LABOR BUT FOR SO LONG.

LUCIUS OWES ME A DIAMOND FOR EVER SINGLE TIME THIS BABY KICKS ME. AT THIS POINT I'M EXPECTING MY OWN SODDING MINE.
For Salazar's sake I'm not a bloody drum. Or a sodding prison cell. It's more than welcome to come early if it likes. Though I suppose saying so would be bad luck. Fortunately I'm not particularly suspicious anymore. I spilled some salt once - just used it to do tequila shooters.
Oh bollocks, I miss cocktails.
Make that two diamonds per kick.
[Warded to Alecto]
I'm unhappy.
[Warded to Regulus]
I'm very very unhappy.
[Warded to Bella]
I'm extremely unhappy.

Oh nevermind, I'll do it.
[Warded to Death Eaters]
I have the diadem. I'd very much appreciate a few minutes of fighting to distract the Ministry and the Order long enough for me to get home with it.
Hell, I can't disapparate
Make that several more minutes.
[Warded to Thorfinn]
Could you meet me out in the alley behind the building, dear? I need a ride.

If any of you need any magic performed, do feel free to ask. In your case though, Francis, I'll be adding each time to the tally.

As if labeling Gilderoy Lockhart a terrorist wasn't laughable enough, it's included the defamation of several upstanding individuals including my husband. The Daily Prophet really has become and utter rag. I'd cancel out subscription, but I need to use something to line the part of the kitchen floor Doorknob sleeps on.
[Warded to Lucius]
I'm going to maim several people. Methodically and with great attention to detail.

[Warded to Lucius]
When we get home we are going to have a long talk about inviting particular guests to dinner without prior approval.
A VERY. LONG. TALK.
[Warded to Bella]
Guess what I get to do when we get back?
Also, you'll be holding my hand during this entire trip. I'm won't be letting go until we're off that flying muggle death trap again.
[Warded to Lockhart]
Gilderoy, darling! I don't think I properly expressed how magnanimous it was of you to take care of our travel accommodations. Once we arrive in London, you really must join my husband and I for dinner.
[Warded to Regulus]
Draw me a picture of a muggle plain? A happy one.

We should start thinking about social support. You already have myself, Cally, and Lucius. Also Francis, although who knows if he'll be a boon or a burden. He tends to irritate people almost as much as he sucks up to them. Let's leave him off for now.
BELLA
Previously thought to be impossible, but if Bella can change her mind about half-blood I think she can change it about almost anything. And her approval will carry a great deal of weight with Uncle Edgar.
RODOLPHUS
Rodolphus is quite reasonable. I'm certain if you display a willingness to be compliant, you could win him over without too much complication.
MONTGOMERY NOTT
I am still personally cross with him, but I concede he'd be useful to have on your side. He's older. Extremely respectable if you don't know he's a tosser and if you can get him to favor you it will be a good leg in with ther older members of society.
AUGUSTUS ROOKWOOD
Same reasons at Nott. And everyone adores Rookwood, darling. Everyone.
We should think about celebrity as well. You should be more congenial to Lockhart and try to win him over as well, dear. He's a pureblood and only THE most famous wizard of our time. His backing certainly couldn't help. And lets see if we can convince Rita Skeeter to publish something torrid and scandalous, but flattering about you.
[Warded to John Dawlish]
I need a favor, if you please.
[Warded to Rita Skeeter]
Rita, darling! I was so flattered at being mentioned in your last article. I was absolutely blush and my friends were ready to die with jealousy. It was delicious!
[Warded to Lucius]
This is more fun than I've had in MONTHS! Have I told you lately that you are a very handsome man?
[Warded to Death Eaters]
Who would like to go out to eat? Bella? Isabel? Francis? Severus? Thorfinn? Isabel you really should eat after just recoving. Francis, I know you'd never say no to free anything. I bought you a purse by the way. Montgomery, you're welcome to come along as well.
