Private Message to Lucius Malfoy

[alt_mcgonagall]

Lucius, has there been any movement on the tournament negotiations? I only ask because a little bird told me they were nearing completion. It would be most useful to have as much advance knowledge as possible of the numbers of attendees and the specifics of the courses, assuming of course that all goes well. The castle's magic is not quite as responsive as one might wish; it will take some coaxing to prepare for the sort of spectacle that has been suggested, with such long-term visitors.
