[rift] a note  
[Private to Harry, Hermione, and Luna.]

Would one (or all) of you please let me know what I've missed back home? I'm aware that you're all from later points in time than I am, and I'd like to get back in the loop, as they say.

I think it would be nice if we were all on the same page.

Please keep in mind that I don't want to know everything—for example: relationships, grades, Quidditch scores, and the like—just the important things. Hogwarts staff changes, major events, the state of things with You-Know-Who, etc.

Also: How long was Meandering with the Minotaur at the top of the Daily Prophet's best seller list? Weeks? Months? Did I publish anything after that?

Do let me know.

Sorry? I think if either of us should be sorry, it's probably me.

[It's okay, Hermione. Gilderoy is also surprised at how quickly that came out.]

For all you went through, I mean. I think it's a bit lucky that I missed it all, don't you?

[His reply hits her hard.]

The deaths and the sacrifices, they weren't for nothing. We stood for something. I wouldn't know to call it luck, sir, save to say I am relieved you are alive and here instead.

And that we have met.

[Regardless of his trangressions and the crush of a very young girl once upon a time, Hermione does mean that.]

[...that was unexpected. His reply comes after he's written back to Harry.]

I didn't think I truly understood how dark those times were until I read Harry's note. I'm glad he had you as a friend, to help him get through it. And I'm glad you have each other here now.

If I had to pick any ex-students to get stuck in an alternate universe with, it'd be you lot.

[Shh, it's totally a compliment.]

I am the one glad to have had him at my side.

[DAWWWWWWWW /draws hearts around him]

Thank you, Professor.

Now to see what awaits us in this world.

So far, it's all feathers and fur and odd heartbeats.

I daresay Chicago is living up to everything I've heard...
