Thank you.

[ Typing bubbles bounce for some time. Deciding between past and present tense. ]

During the games, when I was attacked, everyone started hovering over me, being protective. It was sweet, and they all meant well, but it was suffocating. For lack of a better word. Harry made up some magic charms instead. He gave me the means to protect myself. I knew he was special.

You guys were close before, weren’t you?

When I was in the cells after I was accused, I was alone. Not always the best version of myself when left like that.

Harry showed up daily, brought me books to read and discussed them. Kept me sane when I might not have made it out otherwise.

He didn't trust vampires at first - much like you didn't. But he challenged his own beliefs. I'm grateful he did.

I'm sorry, Tim.

That sounds like him. He’s a good man. I’m glad he was there for you.

He’d had a lot of trouble with them back home. That’s why I never told him when I was bitten, I didn’t want to worry him. I regret that now.

For what it’s worth, I’m glad that you could change our minds. You lost a friend too, but you’re consoling me. You’re a good person too, Louis.
