Order only: Private message to Fred Weasley and George Weasley

[alt_terry]

I can't sleep. It's been going on for a week. I just can't. Every time I close my eyes, I see his leering face over me. Watching me.

It's crazy. I know he's dead. I keep tasting

It's like he's haunting me, but I haven't seen his ghost. But I keep turning around quickly, half-expecting to see him there.

I said some stuff on the lock that maybe was a mistake. I just don't know. I'm so tired I can't even tell.

I'm glad Mr and Mrs Longbottom get back soon. Except if they figure out something's wrong and ask me about it, I don't even know what to say to them.

I'm free, right? So shouldn't everything be okay now?

I don't get it. I mean, I'm so happy here. Except I'm starting to not be able to sleep, and sometimes I feel like I don't belong here at all.

I don't even know what I'm asking.

Second of all, whether you're a...a murderer or simply someone who had to defend himself to save his own life isn't the most important thing about you.

[alt_terry]

Oh yeah? Then what is?

It's that you're a survivor.

You survived Amycus Carrow, the worst arse end the Protectorate had. You're still living, in spite of everything he threw at you. He tried to destroy you, and he didn't succeed. So don't you do his job for him and destroy yourself.

Talk to the Longbottoms. Tell them what's going on. They will help.
