And who's to say that you wouldn't still having a smashing time despite all those trivialities? I know I'd be amused watching their reactions. Come now, where's your sense of adventure?

...I shouldn't even be considering this. It's ridiculous, at best, and potentially lethal, at worst.

...But I bloody hate it here, and it's easier than going home with my tail between my legs. Not that I'd be too opposed to doing so, at this point. I'd be miserable, sure, but it's pretty clear, to me, that I have no semblance of a clue how to run my life so that I don't fuck everything up ten times over, and going home offers me the solution of just not having to think about a goddamn thing. And I may not get to really be Terry, but I hate being Terry anyway, and it's never been more obvious to me that Dad was right about me never being able to make it without the family...

And it's not as though I'm really doing anything for the Order. It's not as though I ever have. They wouldn't miss me. Some of them would probably be glad to be rid of me. It'd just make it easier for them to rescue Saint Draco and go about the business of redeeming him. And if I'm going to be miserable any way it goes, then why not be miserable where I'm materially comfortable and don't have to think about the so-called "real world?" The real world's only ever been depressing anyway.

I really suggest you get out more, Boot, even if it isn't to my party. Even undesirables on the run should explore their horizons, I say.

...I shouldn't be considering this.

[Hexed to Anthony, Michael, Sal, Ernie, & Theodore.]
...I think Blaise just invited me to his party on Saturday.

...What do I do?

[Mistakenly Left Public]
...Bollocks to all of this; I want to go home.

You know what I would say, but you always get upset and do what you want anyways.

But, it is not safe for you. You are a wanted man and there you would be SURROUNDED by enemies. What if Rivers is there? You could be sent off to Azkaban.

Please be careful. Think about what you are doing!!

Blaise wouldn't let anything happen to me. Theodore wouldn't want anything to happen, and Blaise and Theodore are what you want us to be a half-item. So, since Theodore wouldn't want anything to happen to me, Blaise won't let it happen -- oh, and he probably won't let any fighting of sides go on, since he thinks we're all a bunch of morons anyway. Can't say that I blame him, really. The only person with any sense in this fucking war is too long dead.

I still don't like the idea of you going. It is dangerous.

You are here in Grimmauld for a reason.

And PLEASE PLEASE don't leave. If you leave then I don't know what I would do. Please don't....

I know, I know. I'm only vaguely flirting with the idea. I probably won't go.

I am telling you that is a bad idea.

I don't want you to get hurt or caught or anything.

I hope you don't. I would miss you way too much.

I know it's a bad idea. It would be a bad idea even if I weren't with the Order. Like I said, I probably won't end up going; I just don't know how to properly respond to actually being invited when I'm completely persona non grata with these people.

I'm not leaving.

He just... He what?

I don't know if it's a good idea to go, Terry. It's not safe. What if something happens?

[scribbled at the end in tiny, cramped letters]

Please don't leave, Terry.

He... kind of invited me to some Pureblood party he and his mother are having? On Saturday.

I know it's not safe. I know it's a bad idea because, even if I weren't with the Order, I'm our generation's Sirius Black. Aside from the accusations of mass-murder, betrayal, etc. And, like Sirius Black, I'm persona non grata with other Purebloods. ...But I don't think Blaise would let anything happen to me, because Theo wouldn't want it, and Blaise and Theo are sort of... symbiotic, in a sense.

...I was upset when I wrote that. I'm not leaving. Yet.

I just don't want anything to happen to you. ...If you're completely sure you'll be safe, I guess I can't ask for anything more than that.

[scribbled again]

...I don't want to lose you.

Honestly? I'm not completely sure of anything. I'm not even remotely sure of most things anymore. I just trust that Blaise won't let anything happen.

You won't. At least not now.

If I go, which I probably won't, I'll be exceedingly careful. I'll be careful like Percy.

Thank you.

...As dangerous as I think it is, it might be good for you. To spend some time out of the house and have some fun. I just worry, you know.

...Really? I thought you'd go more the Michael route, and tell me that it's just a universally bad idea, that I'm an idiot for even remotely considering it, and saying be careful... all while saying that you're not going to say anything at all.

I do think it's a bad idea, and I don't want you to go, but I know that when you want to do something, you'll do it, no matter what any of us think.

As much as I want you do be safe, I want you to be happy too. And I know you're not happy.

[small scribblings again]

I just want you to be happy.

But you still managed to point out that there would be merits to my going, regardless of the fact that it's completely ridiculous, dangerous, and I really shouldn't do it. Michael is... probably a little beyond doing that. On the other hand, both of you have made a point of how I'll do something, regardless of what other people think, which really does me a great disservice and makes me sound like a callous, heartless wretch.

Yeah, that seems to be the general consensus regardless of where I am and what I'm doing. Even if I did go to Blaise's party, and I'm not saying that I will, I really don't know that it would do anything.

If you think you'll be safe, you should go.

And I'm sorry. I made it sound like you never take anyone's opinion into account, and I never meant to do that.

I've said it already, but I just want you to be happy. That's what I've always wanted for you, Terry. I don't like seeing you so upset, and I wish there was something I can do. I love you, stubborn prat that you are.

Well. I don't so much think I'll be safe as much as I trust that I will be, on the grounds that Blaise won't be if anything happens.

I know you didn't.

Honestly, I don't think there's much that anyone can do. I mean, I've had trouble being "happy" pretty much since I can remember -- or, at least, the predominant trend that I remember involves a lot of difficulty being happy, aside from a few fleeting memories wherein I'm about six or seven and just really, genuinely happy. I think I'm just broken. I love you too, occasional stand-in mother that you are. Which I really am appreciative of, even though I probably never act like it.

...Speaking of me being stubborn, though: do you think there could be a big, collective move away from talking about my vices and back to talking about my virtues?

...Do I really need to be clearer about it? I mean... did everyone go off and meet fifteen other Blaises? Is Blaise suddenly as popular a name as John, or Robert, or Jennifer?

I'd love to see you there, but I know that you and Blaise don't really get along. I can see why you're hesitating. He's just jealous.

We could dance.

Well, I'm going. Several people on my end aren't enthusiastic about the idea, and I'm pretty sure that I'll get Hell for it from Lupin and McGonagall, if they ever find out. But I'll be there.

Yes, please, without question.
