Awkward and Possibly Overcompensating Accomplice

[Eli Swan]

Cash--

I read in the paper today about your coach. I was really sorry to hear it. Did you know about him? Or is this whole thing just out of nowhere? I feel like you must have at least suspected because you were around him like every day but I guess it all depends on how good he was at hiding it.

I don't really know anything about him--I didn't even know he existed really until the paper today--so I don't know how much you liked him or whatnot. I'm really sorry if you're upset.

He's most definitely done in professional Quidditch, but if you feel at all strongly about it, I'm pretty sure I've got the requisite skill to break in to places (I sort of do that for my job like all the time) and I'm even sort of half-sure I could do it without getting caught (but it is the Ministry so you never know) and anyway if you feel really strongly about it, then I would be willing to like, attempt a jail-break for you. Though if it doesn't go well and I end up getting put in jail too it might just turn into a big spiral where Angie would try to break me out and that really wouldn't be very good for anyone.

If you want to talk, though, and you don't have anyone to talk to about it, I still check my journal every day, even though I know you don't, anymore. So if you need moral support or anything, I'm here. And I'm not totally opposed to a jail-break if you feel really strongly about it.
