Hey, kid. The grapevine has it that the dead man in the house fire was David Nettles, the chief postmaster on Diagon. Targeted because he refused to stick up one of those nice bigoted signs. Survived by wife and two year old daughter, very heartwrenching.

There is a very interesting looking character on the street opposite my window selling what appears to be a collection of cursed bookends. I'm not precisely sure what it is a cursed bookend does, but I'm almost tempted to buy a pair and find out.

	From my knowledge, something that is cursed is almost never a good thing. (Reply to this) (Thread)

Just because I'm a few years younger than you does not warrant you to call me 'kid'.

He got murdered because he refused to stick up a sign? That would make a nice headline, I'm sure. Thank you, however, ti is very interesting... let's just hope I get to bloody cover it instead of the story being taken away from me again.

But of course, the part you've been waiting for, what would you like in return?

	I do like those books. They're so dramatically chilling. Probably not a very good investment, though. (Reply to this) (Parent)
