You're sweet and it's late and I'm much too sober for this conversation.
I understand where you're going, puppy, but it's not the same thing. I'll grant that at the time, Reg seemed just as cocksure as Percy Weasley is now. But there were signs .... Things I could have done to win back his trust. At least not send him practically running into the Death Eaters' open arms.
And for Merlin's sake, don't go mentioning a terrible and tragic end for Percy in front of Molly. She's been fragile enough this week as it is.
Look. I'm for bed. There's a certain almost-two-year-old who shall be wanting attention irrespective of how much sleep we've all got the night before. And before you point out my 'nap' this evening I'll just say that the afternoon was about as exhausting as running all the way to Hogwarts from New London.
