Today I spoke to Lily Evans - shocking, I know. There was no where to sit at lunch expect by her, so I sat there. We started talking about History, then Binns...then whether or not Hogwarts would be here for our children.
If You-Know-Who gets his way, it won't be. It's a high ambition, but he's at his height, and there's nothing that I can see to stop him. There are more deaths every day, though anymore it's not in the news, because it's no surprise. And there's nothing about any Death Eater captures, which would be a surprise.
It just keeps snowballing - Father told me not to think about it this summer, because the ever-increasing death toll would worry Mother. But now I'm here again, and it's so apparent that everyone is trying not to think about it, and I can't just keep it in the back of my mind anymore. It's like a recurring nightmare, except it happens every time I wake up.
I don't want to let it drive me to depression, but what else is there to feel? I told Lily that we're still children, but at Hogwarts we have enough courage, loyalty, and intelligence to make a difference. But by the time we're adults, will it matter anymore? Will there be a difference to be made?
I wish I could just keep pretending there's nothing going on and absorb everything I can in school as I've always done. I wish I could just forget about it again, go back to spending my days drawing and reading and making the best of things. I wish I just didn't know.
I told Lily war robbed children of their innocence; she said some of us have already been robbed.
And she was right.
