Order Only: Private Message to Alice and Remus

[alt_sirius]

Sweet bloody Mordred.

Snape invited Draco down to the stillroom to help us brew. More like to help him destroy every cauldron we currently have!

Alice, for the love of Merlin, give them something to do. Can they attempt this Ministry thing, with the archives? Or go rescue a baby or steal a Sleeper for experimental potions or SOMETHING?

At this rate I'm ready to send them into New London to break into an apothecary if it'll just keep them OCCUPIED.

Moony, I sent them upstairs, anyway, just to play a game or rearrange the furniture or try to unstick my mother's portrait. I don't care what.

I don't think either of them is in much of a mood for games, Padfoot.

[alt_sirius]

They can play fucking drinking games with the port, the sherry, the claret and the cabernet, for all I care.

They were about the burn the house down in here, too.

[alt_lupin]

As tempting as it is to suggest they try their luck with your mother's portrait, I'm a bit worried they might accidentally burn the house down.

[alt_lupin]

Is there anyone we'd like assassinated? They seem to be in the right frame of mind for it.

[alt_sirius]

They're not the only ones in the right frame of mind for that.

Name the target. Name three. We'll all go.

[alt_lupin]

Jolly good! Let's go kill Bellatrix Lestrange.

[alt_alice]

Well, if we're going to aim, I suppose one might as well aim high.

[alt_sirius]

Excellent!

Hydra won't mind, apparently.

[alt_lupin]

Oh, she'll mind, I think.

She'll mind we didn't invite her along to help.

[alt_alice]

Mulciber was on my list, as was Nott Jr, so I'll have to reprioritise things first. I'll get back to you.

[alt_lupin]

Maybe you can replace Nott Jr with Nott Sr. And there's a whole additional Mulciber, let's not forget about him.

[alt_sirius]

Right. And another Lestrange. And there's Dolohov, Malfoy, Crouch ....

No shortage, really. We could declare open season.

[alt_alice]

True!

I shall have to completely re-work the assassination plans I was brewing for The Great Almighty, too.

[alt_alice]

Don't worry. I'm coming over.

And yes, the main topic of choice will be How To Be Useful. Merlin help me, I'm of a mind to have him join Severus in this archives venture, but right now, I need to be convinced he's sound enough to be driven rather than shaken.
