Private message to Poppy Pomfrey

Poppy -

I do hate to bother you on a Saturday evening, but really, you’ve assured us ever so many times that you’d rather hear about something sooner, while it’s a small problem, and I'm taking you at your word.

I've had trouble the past few days with my feet and ankles itching, and it’s far worse tonight. I’m sure it must be something simple - this week has been entirely irregular after all. Maybe it’s the dry winter air, or the cold when I was observing Aurora's evening classes on Wednesday, or something of the kind.

i’m normally just as healthy as anything (and so very careful to maintain a regular schedule, eat and sleep far better than most staff here seem to manage.) These little annoyances are so terribly frustrating.

At any rate, would you have a moment to see me this evening, perhaps, or if not, first thing tomorrow?

I'll come right up, then.

This is such a poorly designed building in so many ways. And the insistence on all these entirely unsanitary activities. I suppose it's a marvel there aren't more problems.

I'm surprised to hear there's other issues of this kind - I'd gathered that your most recent evaluation vigorously concluded you were entirely competent to handle the vast majority of student complaints. Perhaps we should talk about other tendencies you've noticed this term, and I might put in a good word with those who could offer additional resources.
