Hello again. I've been giving a bit of advice out to people who need help with dealing with lost ones. I've never used it myself, actually, but it doesn't seem like a bad idea. When we got here, me and my friends, we were astonished we couldn't speak to anyone from back home. Back home, you just send an owl, you see, and you can usually find anyone you're looking for. Well, here, that isn't really possible, especially if someone's gone.

[Harry pauses to carefully consider his words. He doesn't want to sound like someone who's experienced a lot of loss, which makes this harder. His parents, Sirius, they'll wonder why he's so used to this, so he decides to leave that part out. If anyone wishes to know, he'll tell them somewhere else—or just hope that his parents aren't so involved that they'll listen to every conversation he has. They haven't given him that impression, anyway.]

My point is—I've recommended that people write letters. They might find their way to where they belong sooner or later. Luna liked the idea, and I've been considering taking it up myself. And that's just to tell people from home things.

So ... yeah. It might help. But sorry for all your losses.

[Harry feels like that's enough.]

There is one more thing. I contacted a number of people about training. Merlin, Lancer ... others. But then the battle happened and my parents showed up, and, er, most of the meetings were meant to take place during that battle, which obviously, they just couldn't. Since the bracelets have still been acting up, I've been holding off on contacting anyone again, but if you received a message from me, I'm still very much interested. I'd make it easier and contact you directly, but I'm not counting on the messages making it to you just yet.

Right, that's all.

... Why would they be 'screwed'?

And honestly, a strong will is enough.

...if you gave up, I mean. People giving up is never a good option. Again, I think we have to disagree. Sometimes a strong will gets trampled upon and it's like it never existed.

Who are you?

What's it matter?

Because while I can have anonymous conversations, the ones where they sound like the person knows me personally are a little unsettling.

Maybe I've heard some stories about you. So what?

What have you 'heard'?

Just that you saved the world. If you had given up, obviously that wouldn't have happened.

And who'd you hear that from?

Are you really so paranoid to ask this many questions?

I do think it's a bit strange that you can't just say who you are. You realise that, right?

Fairly certain you can figure it out.

Then why bother going anonymous to have a conversation, Malfoy?

Call me curious. Problem?

[Harry wants to just assume it's just something that Malfoy's mother had explained—about keeping them at arm's length and all that, but there's something unsettling about it. Perhaps there's the additional factor of some of what Jade's said.

No, that's not just a "perhaps"—that's a definitely.

Truthfully, things are complicated enough with Malfoy, but it seems like they get more complicated by the day.]

It's weird.

You say that as though it wouldn't be weird otherwise.

Weirder.

And now you're just making it awkward.

It was awkward the moment you decided to reply in the first place.

I reply to things that interest me. It was just unfortunate it happened to come from you. [Which is mostly true. The other part was mainly to see if he could get away with it at all.]

You replied anonymously to tell me that my passing idea was rubbish. Honestly, I'm surprised I didn't realise it sooner.

Your reading comprehension is as clear as ever, Scarhead. I said it might work but it usually doesn't based on experience. Major difference. [That or Draco wasnt that clear, either or]

You told me repeatedly that it would only hurt people.

Which is still true, you can't den that.

It was still argumentative for the sake of being argumentative, and so I wouldn't call you on it.
