Subject: Wizards are stupid. Well, not all wizards. Severus isn't, but most of the others are
I know I haven't written for weeks but it's been so hectic here that it made living on the Hellmouth seem dull. You know how I've been wondering why no one from the wizarding world has come to see how Severus is doing? They all thought he'd died in the battle. Not one of them was smart enough to realize he'd been inoculating himself against cobra venom. Granted, when he apparated to my door – well, his door since I'm renting his home – Severus did look rather dead, but wizards have a high amount of stamina so they should have at least checked. If I hadn't been here to treat him with the anti-venom he'd stashed in his quarters, he would have died. Those idiots weren't even looking for him. They only came because they'd finally traced this house as one of his properties and wanted to assess it.
Well, as you can imagine, I didn't let that miserly little accountant into the house. Do you know what he did? Called the cops on me, wizarding cops, Aurors they're called. They crashed through the doors and wouldn't believe me when I told them Severus was alive. They did apologize afterwards and repaired the doors. Several of those Aurors have been guarding the house night and day because not everyone thinks Severus is a hero. That is distinctly not fair. Severus almost gave his life to defeat that Riddle baddie and people still think he's a traitor? That is so not going to stand and I have made my opinion known to several of these Aurors. I would go directly to the Minister of Magic, but I'm not leaving Severus alone until he's strong enough to defend himself.
