Order Only: Grimmauld

[alt_sirius]

Kingsley, Frank:

When you've finished up there, have everyone come round to Grimmauld, will you? We'll meet you there.

I think we've got to have a talk about what just happened and what we're going to do with the new information we have.

All right.

It's over. We have the names, and Emmeline's safe. Steve's checked her over, and now he's apparating Ridley away. Good riddance.

We're going to clear out our stuff and then torch the house.

Yeah, thanks, Sirius good idea. We definitely need to do a security post-mortum.

(Frank: you missed a spot, right over your ear, if you want to grab one of the towels.)

[alt_arthur]

Will you stick around until the evening? I can stop by briefly after leaving work.

[alt_bill]

Good idea, Dad. I'll come over, too.

[alt_sirius]

Yeah, come along. Molly, too.

I've a feeling we'll be here for a while.


I'll just go tell Kreacher that we'll have company for supper. Lots of company.

[alt_molly]

What about having dinner there? I would be happy to cook, Sirius, if you like.

[alt_sirius]

Thanks, Molly. Your cookery would be most welcome.

I'm not sure which bit of news Kreacher will object to more: The fact you're all coming for supper or the fact that he'll not be expected to provide the meal for you!

[alt_nymphadora]

Well, and you could all come along to the beer garden later. (I don't think we ought to close for the night, so at least one of us will have to come back here for opening.)

[alt_frank]

yeah. okay.

Private message to Frank Longbottom

[alt_alice]

Re: Private message to Frank Longbottom

[alt_frank]

a bird shit on my head.

but yeah.

steve was brilliant. he deserves a medal. and emmy's safe. so it's okay.

it's really okay.

Re: Private message to Frank Longbottom

[alt_alice]

Good to hear it.

I know it's been a while since one of us was in that sort of immediate danger.

Re: Private message to Frank Longbottom

[alt_frank]

yeah.

...yeah.

[alt_alice]

I'm glad to hear that Emmaline is safe. And honestly, I'm glad Ridley has been taken care of too. I know how hard it was on the Players, Kingsley.

[alt_poppy]

Emmeline's safe?

Thank goodness. And good riddance to Ridley.

I'm sorry I won't be able to join you all in New London. Do tell us if you turn all that adrenaline to brilliant ideas, will you?

Pomona and I--and Minerva, I'm sure--will be most interested to hear what you've discussed. Perhaps Remus could provide us with the minutes again. Or, poor chap, he's just had the blue moon--maybe someone else could take those for him.

[alt_pomona]

I agree, Poppy, with the desire for minutes from someone. There's no earthly chance I can get away, and I can only assume Minerva's even worse off.

Between the first years and the nerves over Dark Arts, well. I expect to be busy with students until their curfew, and in no shape to go to New London thereafter. I only snatched a few moments here to catch up because my students were settling in so well.
