Private Message to Antonin Nikolaevich
Antoshenka, my boy:
Do forgive my not writing to you sooner. I've been quite remiss in reading my journal over the summer holidays. But I confess I'm much the more relaxed for having neglected it these weeks. Thus, imagine my surprise when I returned from my country cottage to learn that you are crossing the line to join our happy family of professors.
I don't doubt that others have already made the offer but do not hesitate to ask, should you have any questions about protocols or process. I'm delighted to welcome another of my House and one of my better pupils back to our hallowed halls. I daresay I can show you a trick or two that will make marking your students' work go a great deal faster, as well!
There are a growing number of us who appreciate a quiet evening's drink; I really must have a salon or two once school returns to session. But whether I am hosting a group or alone, my door is always open to you, Antonin Nikolaevich.
