Re: Order Only: Private Message to Sally-Anne

Yes, I've considered all of those options. I'm afraid none of them will do.

I can't tell her I fancy blokes; Remy can attest it's not true. I can't pretend to go out with her or anyone else for that matter; it would be exceedingly unfair to both the young lady and to H and to me.

I've tried to be as firm as possible but I'm afraid today was a step in the wrong direction, what. Still, who could have left her without any assistance?

I was thinking you could try offering Remy the opportunity to convince you blokes aren't so bad, but that only swaps Astoria for Remy, doesn't it?

Today was most definitely a step in the wrong direction. But why can't you pretend a relationship with someone understanding? I mean, there's also Luna and Katrina, neither one of them is seeing anybody.

No, it's quite out of the question. As I said, even if they were 'understanding' it would be singularly unfair to them. To say nothing of the fact that, well, I say, I don't think I could be remotely convincing in a pretend relationship.

Nor would I be interested in attempting it.

Hydra's said her preference is that I tell Astoria I'm not dating anyone else out of respect for Hydra's wishes, what, but I don't think she's quite thought how that makes me look. I mean to say, it's one thing to appear unusually gallant, if you follow me. But quite another to contribute to a fiction in which I'm bally well thoroughly under her thumb. Particularly when she and Harry are supposedly seeing each other and she's done such a jolly good job behaving as if she's moved on, what.

I understand why it helps her to make the school think she's so heartless but--well, there are limits to how foolish one is willing to seem.

Well, that's a problem, yeah. Because 'I'm sorry, I'm still heartbroken about my last girlfriend' is basically CATNIP to someone like Astoria. And I think if you told her Hydra doesn't want you seeing other people, she won't understand, at all.
