For anyone who found themselves on the receiving end of mysterious events that had no explanation, the cause was my Inmate, Merope Gaunt. She didn't harm anyone intentionally. I had the Admiral return her magic to her as a necessary step on her path to graduation, and I didn't anticipate the control problems that would follow. My apologies to anyone who was injured. If you have issues, problems, or concerns, please take them up with me, as it was my decision to return her magic that ultimately lead to what happened. Her magic is now limited until she can learn how to control it.

[Filtered to Lua and Dracula, separately]

Merope informed me that she used a Memory Charm on you. You were her friend, and she panicked. She didn't want you to remember what was happening. I don't know what the extent of the damage was, because Merope was not in control of her magic at the time the charm was cast. If you're forgetting things, this is the reason. I'm sorry that this happened before I figured out what was going on.

Merope has informed me that she performed a Memory Charm on your Inmates. She wanted to make them forget, because they were her friends and she couldn't stop what was happening. Uncontrolled Memory Charms have very little chance of being reversed. I wouldn't even try to do so, because the risk of doing more damage is far greater than the chance of a successful reversal. I've informed Lua and Dracula. If there's anything more you want me to do, please let me know.

She intentionally fucked with my inmate's mind and there's no way to fix it?

That's worse than death. Having memories stolen is worse than death and you're being this goddamn calm about it?! Don't you give a fuck about what she did to Lua, or are you just that fuckin' willing to coddle the bitch you've been assigned to?!

Do something to punish her, or I'll kill the stupid cunt!

She panicked and did something, she didn't intentionally seek to fuck with Lua's mind. I'm being bloody calm because losing my bloody head isn't going to fix anything. Of course I care about what she's done. I've had my own mind buggered with, intentionally, and I know the difference between that and what Merope has done.

I've limited her magic. If I take it away entirely, that's a reward, because she doesn't want it. She can't graduate without it. She's lost her few friends, as they no longer remember her. Feel free to kill her and lose your deal, because that's all you're going to gain. She doesn't care about her life, either.

If Lua feels that Merope should be punished, then she can talk to me and we'll work out a punishment.

Also, I wouldn't talk to anyone about coddling their inmates if you get this bloody deranged over an accident.

She 'didn't want her to remember what was happening', in your own goddamn words. If she knew she was taking memories that's fuckin' intentional!

[Losing memories is a huuuuge trigger for her. It happened to her once during an event and she's never handled it, even though she got them back.]

If she so much as breathes within three feet of me or my inmate, I will teach her to stay away. Got it?

She panicked and tried to erase what was happening, erase the memory, erase what she could. It was not a coherent, thought out, planned or malicious attack. It was the first thing she told me when I found her, once I could understand words beneath the shaking and the sobbing. I believe her exact words were 'I made them forget me, my friends.' If she was doing an intentional Memory Charm, precise and very specific memories would have been taken. That isn't what happened.

If she ever breathes within three feet of anyone again, I'll be impressed. Your threat is duly noted.
