Owl to Stephen and owl to Lupin!

Stephen,

I'm having serious problems juggling everything and you don't really need a TA since you manage fine on your own. Would it be okay if I resigned? I'll help you find a replacement if you think you need one and of course I'm willing to go on teaching Sarah, officially or unofficially, whichever you prefer. Seriously sorry about this, and if for some reason you do actually need me, I'll shift everything around somehow to make time since I really am sorry that I can't figure out a better way to balance all my responsibilities.

Professor Lupin,

Dr. Cox suggested that I owl you about taking some genderchange potion to pose nude for the Unnamed Hogwarts school paper. So, I'm doing so. If this request is in any way offensive, please feel free to ignore it since I have no intention of being insulting but am merely trying to provide a nice counterpoint to the promised vampire erotica.

Sincerely,

Ryuuji Otogi, Editor-In-Chief.

Ryuuji:

Your apologies are noted and appreciated, but unnecessary. I have been pleasantly surprised, and grateful, that you have been able to balance your duties as potions assistant with your prefectship and other responsibilities for these many months. What I needed most -- assistance with the unexpected transition into a position completely vacated by a predecessor unable to give guidance as to procedure and supplies -- you have already given.

Circumstances are now such that Sarah can obtain instruction from me directly.* Any assistance you can continue to provide would of course be deeply appreciated, as you have offworld knowledge not encompassed in the wizarding literature; other than that, I wish you well in your continued juggling of activities, among which I hope will be frequent visits to Sarah and myself.

Dear Ryuuji:

WHAT??

Please inform Dr. Cox that I'll do it if he does it also. I'm sure the prospect will interest him greatly.

Sincerely,

Professor R.J. Lupin
