Perhaps he has a good excuse. I don't truly know. But I still have yet to hear from him and it sounds as if his family has not either.

In regards to Mr. Honeyduke, I do feel it's best to leave it all be. I haven't seen him or heard from him since so I'm assuming he either doesn't remember or wasn't fond of what was said. Either way, I think it's best to not stir it all back up. I already made a fool of myself once after all, no point in doing so further.

And I do hope they figure out what is going on with the fog. Percy wanted to go but with his leg it just wasn't plausible. I'm glad he's stayed behind though. I just hope he survives from the idleness of everything. He's never been one to like being still for long.
