Sarah has arrived here and settled in, and she's doing well, even if she's a little shy. There's one thing that's made her awful happy, and that's that she has a relative here she didn't even know was alive. So they're getting acquainted. She remembered me, although she was real startled to see me, and to realise that I'm not really like the way she knew me back in Hogwarts--crawling boot, I mean.
Luna, I think there's one thing you might do that would mean a lot to her. She came in Sally-Anne's robes, you know, which are Slytherin instead of Ravenclaw. Do you have a spare Ravenclaw badge you could send via Pig? I think, well, that she may be homesick for Hogwarts for a bit. It's a pretty big shock for her. I think it could be nice if she had at least something with the emblem of her House. I don't think you dare get any of her private possessions from her room to forward here; people would wonder why they were missing. But a badge at least would be good. If it's not safe to send it now, sending it after the summer holidays start would be fine.
The Order wants you all to know how happy they are with you, with the entire Sophie's Army, really, and how impressed they are that you pulled things off so well. Oh, yeah, you may like the way one of them put it: 'the level of planning and coordination that went into this entire set of actions from the attempted potion delivery to Sophie's extraction is quite sophisticated.' So yeah, you did great, as far as they're concerned.
They did have one thing to ask: they want to do what they call a 'post-mortem' with you, maybe if there's some time at least some of us can all get together this summer. (I guess that's an Auror thing? The person who mentioned it is an ex-Auror.) What he means by that I guess is that you sit down and figure out exactly what happened, how you made your decisions, and you evaluate them. What worked really well? What was a mistake? They think it's useful to go over stuff that way, because you can learn from it--and they want to learn from us, which is really quite cool--and you can maybe see things you might do differently next time.
Of course, you can't get together until summer, like they say. But it might be a good idea to at least write some stuff down and think it through now, while it's all still fresh in your minds. Anyway, it's a thought.
