alt_lanaBravo, Avery. Very well said. Your speech was a strong witness to the ideals of this realm and a testament to your heritage, good breeding, and superior education.
I'm so pleased to be back at Hogwarts for this auspicious occasion. Doesn't the castle look beautiful? Congratulations to the Head Mistress and the Board of Governors for committing the resources to this event; everything is simply magnificent.
And how wonderful to have the Philharmonic's chamber group to support the festivities! I'm looking forward to the Weird Sisters, too, though, and, of course, it will be thrilling to see the Champions dance to music of our own era, as well.
I'm very proud of my old schoolmates, too, for offering such a warm welcome to the visiting delegations and to other guests, who, like myself, are here as outsiders for this singular event. Everyone looks so handsome. You do clean up well, most of you, when you put some special effort into it. (Of course, many of you carry yourselves proudly all the time, but we all know what I mean when I say that on most days, the wider student body take a rather casual approach to comportment and sartorial detail.)
Oh, yes. Nearly forgot. Clearwater, I'm sure whatever it was you said was well-intentioned.

Isn't this marvellous? I wish the castle could be decorated like this all the time.
Are you having fun? And the Weird Sisters! It's amazing.

Date: 2011-12-23 04:39 am (UTC)I'm sorry we've not had a chance to catch up, even briefly, but Campanella did have a word as we were getting started, and she seems really quite pleased with your work for her.
I'm sure it's got to be good fun to be back and see everyone, as well, and I quite agree that everyone seems to have cleaned up well, and looks splendid.
