Order Only: Private message to Alice Longbottom, Remus Lupin, and Sirius Black

[alt_rachel]

Bellatrix Lestrange sent me a box by owl containing Alfred Montague's eyes, tongue, ears, nose, and fingers, with a note saying, 'Your mole left this behind. See that he gets it.'

At least, I assumed they belonged to Alfred. Jason wasn't able to persuade him to leave, hadn't heard from him in several days, and was quite worried. We're having a Healer check, just to be sure. They'll be able to tell us if they were removed from his still-living body or a corpse, as well -- not sure whether Jason actually wants to know that detail or not. If they were removed while he was alive, there's at least the possibility he still is, and we should keep his parts in magical stasis for later re-attachment... I can't imagine he is, but you never know.

Anyway. I told Jason in person. He took it ... stoically.

How utterly awful.

Jason wants to come stay at the castle. With Finnigan. Says his safe house is too small for them to stay there with his parents, right now.

Thoughts? Have you told Ter

[alt_rachel]

I gave him permission to come here for tonight. I'll try to think of another solution starting tomorrow. Having Jason here is one thing; Finnigan is another matter. But they need to be somewhere safe, that's not negotiable. For either of them.

[alt_alice]

Yes. Agreed.

Safety first.

Here's hoping he uses common bloody sense and stays out of everyone's way.

Merlin.

Well, it's cold consolation but I imagine she reacted so dramatically because she's aware her position is getting worse and worse. That or she's finally completely lost her mind.

You knew Jason before he became your spy. Do you think he needs someone to watch out he doesn't try anything stupid? (Either to himself or by rushing off to avenge his brother?)

[alt_rachel]

No. Finnigan needs him. After all he went through to keep him safe, Jason's not going to leave him stranded alone.
