It's all right, he's just arrived and has been told. Apparently his supervisor allowed him go.
Rachel--god, I need you right now, but we haven't even received any official notification yet. I have my hands full at the moment. Ron's just come home, and Charlie--just heard an apparition pop; maybe that's him.
Look, I'll write a little later. If that was Charlie arriving, that means everyone in the family knows, so I need to notify to Alice and Remus.
I'm not, no. And I haven't heard anything. Snowdonia would likely call one of the Aurors who regularly visits, if they thought an investigation was unavoidable.
It was ugly and violent. I know that. It wasn't an easy death.
Bloody hell, all that's been running through my head for the last hour is that he's gone, so we're so much safer now. He was my baby brother, I remember Mum changing his nappies, but I can't muster up the grief I want to have. Except that I let Dad down. And it's gutting me to see what Mum and Ginny are going through.
Look, I need to get out of this house before I go mad. I'll tell Charlie; he'll send me a patronus if I need to come back, if they finally get around to sending an official. But meanwhile, could you meet me? At--at the fishing hole? Say in about a quarter of an hour or so?
We haven't told the Order at large, because what happened made Mum go into shock--Poppy's dosed her--and I don't know if Mum wants it generally known. But I think you need to know. If there's any kind of investigation, knowing the truth would help you figure out if there's some kind of coverup.
He appeared at the Burrow. Called out to Mum from outside, and when she and Ginny opened the door, he was there, bleeding like a stuck pig with a knife buried in his chest, right through his heart.
They tried to grab him, but their hands went right through him. And he disappeared. He was a ghost...no. Maybe not even that. Maybe only a temporary apparition--it was only a few seconds.
Merlin, no wonder Mum was white as a sheet herself and almost passed out, right when I came home.

I just need--shite.
I just need to see you.
