Order Only: Charles Kass

[alt_sirius]

Well, we're back from delivering Charles Kass - or rather, Dora just delivered him and got back with all her limbs in place.

Which is nearly more than we can say for her at the beginning of the encounter.

All right, there, Dora? You want to tell them your newest foolproof method of gaining trust, or shall I?

But Sirius, you were there to retrieve a magical baby. Maybe whoever is looking for babies in the camps is looking for magical babies, too.

I mean, do all the Death Eaters and everyone at the Ministry know for sure that the book's the place to find out if there are muggleborns still being born.

Or maybe they do know and they haven't let on that the book's not reliable anymore.

Yeah, I mean you lot have got ALL the muggleborn babies in the last five years. Isn't that making them at all suspicious, that there aren't ANY being born?

Malfoy's the one who generally looks at the book and according to Minerva, he's never asked.

[alt_sally_anne]

It's Mr Strangeweale who wanted half-bloods.

Do Mr Malfoy and Mr Strangeweale even get on? They certainly don't seem to be close.

[alt_draco]

For the record, my father doesn't like Strangeweale, and he had nothing to do with that device.

[alt_sirius]

Right.

Cheers, then.

I expect they have reasons for thinking they've succeeded in preventing magical births in the muggle camps.

Only, they must be using charms or potions or something to try to prevent that. Experimenting with various things, I'd think. And if they are, then they'd be likely to think that the lack of muggleborn children is a sign that whatever they've been doing works.

I don't know any of that for sure, mind you, but it's my guess.
