Order Only: Private Message to Remus

[alt_sirius]

Right, I'm just putting this here because I dunno where else to put it. And I'm too knackered to look anywhere else

Rejected Rationales (by Mssrs Moony and Padfoot):

• The truth (we wanted to give Alecto more of what Frank and I gave her brother to get the castle's secret out of her)
• We were running low on Wolfsbane and thought we'd get more direct from Snivellus
• We just started to head north ....
• We ran out of Firewhiskey and decided to raid Minerva's cupboard
• Hagrid reported something dangerous in Hogwarts
• Hagrid heard that a copy of Harry's prophecy was hidden in the Divination classroom
• We came to beg Pomona's forgiveness (despite doing nothing wrong)
• We got tired and thought to kip in Gryffindor Tower
• We brought Bea (and ourselves) for Poppy's checkup
• We thought we'd get her pre-Sorted
• We wanted to have a good look at the book (since Minerva's been so behind on it) - I still do like that one
• 'No one expects the Spanish Inquisition!'
• We wanted to snoop through the Astronomy professor's office
• We were arranging a welcome back for Hermione

Well. It was worth it but I don't think we ought to do anything else like that again soon, yeah?

Better pick up some buns for breakfast. For you two, anyway. I'll stick to the ginger tea stuff.
