Order Only: Private message to Draco

[alt_severus]

Are you well, or were you distracted by your housemates? I was expecting you sometime today.

I don't need or want reassurance - what I need is help. But I realise you can't help me unless you know exactly what it is that keeps surfacing, keeps making me question my readiness.

I warn you, though - it's stupid. It's so, so daft and stupid.

[alt_severus]

By now you have seen enough of my secrets to know I have no room to judge. Not without being a hypocrite — something I find exceptionally distasteful.

[alt_draco]

Right, but it doesn't make it any less daft and stupid.

I should be free in a few hours; I'll find you then.

[alt_severus]

If it is lingering with you this firmly, it is likely neither daft nor stupid, no matter how trivial you believe others might find it.

And even if it is, you may call upon whatever help is within my power to give; you are owed that much, at least.
