Order Only: Terrie's owl

[alt_sirius]

She's just sent me two owls, in fact. One had the entrance parchments from Stevenage, permission to enter camp property, etc. And the second owl had the death certificates.

She sent three of each - so we can use two for Kent and Ampfield and have a spare. I can work on copying them out, or maybe Remus, if you're up for it. We were both fair hands at that kind of thing back in the day.

Arthur, I think we can do smuggling the child out one better, as well. This paperwork says we're there to look for a subject or subjects for a 'Department of Mysteries' field operation at Stevenage. Only it will hardly matter if no one at Stevenage is expecting the delivery, will it? As long as the parents wait to use the death certificate until they need it, no one ought to be any the wiser in the camp. As you said, their attitude toward muggles works in our favour on that score.

Anyway, if you, Frank and Allie want to meet me at the Oak Barrel in Epsom, that's about halfway between the two, and we can split up from there.

Wonderful news! And what a fast return, too. Terri really came through for us on this.

We can be there within the half-hour -- do you have enough polyjuice? I can bring some extra for you if needed.

Arthur, if you need to wait until later, Frank can get the paperwork and meet you when you're ready.

Yeah. Well, it's not surprising. I knew my explanation would tug at her heartstrings, as it were.

I've enough polyjuice for about twelve doses, which should be more than we need, I hope.

Excellent news.

No, I can come now and meet you, too. Let's get this done.

That's a relief to hear. Thanks, Sirius.

No worries, Bill. Of course, we won't wish to use this same excuse everywhere - it would become suspicious if we kept collecting people for experiments at Stevenage and there are no such studies - but it definitely gives us the current iteration of the forms and relieves the pressure on your team.
