Private message to Astoria Greengrass

You really don't know a thing about it, so please, be sisterly for once and leave the matter be. I don't want you upsetting Queenie when we get home, and Holda knows she'll be upset enough, what with Mother and I barely speaking.

Anyway, you're really still too young to understand.

Be sweet about it and I'll make it up to you. That baroque cloisonne bracelet you admire so much? I'll let you borrow it for the rest of term, how does that sound?
