We ought to discuss my future. Am I to debut as Papa certainly wishes me to, or should I focus my studies and seek employment? Perhaps as a potioneer's apprentice? Or perhaps Papa would like to see me finished somewhere. Would the Pendergast school accept me, or would he have me finished at home?

There are many questions to be asked, it would appear. Perhaps we ought to discuss it over tea next Hogsmeade weekend. Should we make an appointment with a modiste for my Hogwarts debut gown for that same day? If one is available, of course.
