    Summary

    “I care about Henry. I care about how he does in my class. But more than that, I want him to like it. I want him to find a poem that makes him feel like each line is being etched into the inside of his ribs. Have you felt that, Mrs. Waldorf? Do you know what I mean?”

    “No,” she says tightly. “You sound ridiculous.”

    Humphrey laughs. The sound echoes. It makes her shiver.

    “Yeah, I know,” he says. “But have I at least convinced you to let me try?”

    Summary

    Ghosts weren’t meant to be dangerous, they’d said. Ghosts were kind, friendly creatures who taught you History of Magic or celebrated their Death Day in the Great Hall to much cheering and applause. Ghosts gave you important hints. No witch or wizard ever told their child scary ghost stories, because the idea was less threatening than the idea of doxies in the curtains. The things that people had done to other people in the last decade far outweighed any heightened sense that there might be something more than met the eye. Ghosts were harmless. Benevolent. Typically quite cheerful.

    Unfortunately, they had gotten it wrong.

    Summary

    Spring has arrived, and with it, a lot of work. "Don’t you wish we could leave sometimes? Just for the day," an overwhelmed Sansa asks her cousin. The next day, when she thinks she has a whole day of petitions waiting for her, Jon surprises her with a picnic for just the two of them--and by being very attentive and chivalrous and utterly confusing.
