Dear Mr. Tonks,

It has come to my attention that I am being most unfortunately paired with you for rounds during the last few months of this year. I feel obligated to tell you that I will refuse any conversation with you, taking your status into account. Please feel free to ignore me even.

I suggest, for both our sakes, that you take the east corridor on the second floor, and I will take the west, or vice versa. Please do not reply to this letter. Please do not attempt to speak to me after reading this letter. Please do not consider us acquaintances because of our current circumstances. Have a slightly below average holiday.

Sincerely,

Andromeda Cassiopeia Black
