Order Only: Private message to Sirius

Sometimes I miss not having any friends.

The Weasleys can be overwhelming in the best of circumstances. Under these conditions I imagine they're justified in whatever conflicting emotions they may be exhibiting.

I think perhaps you miss not being responsible for the hard decisions.

[alt_rachel]

It's not the Weasleys that are the problem, it's me. I try to keep my distance from people. It didn't even really work in Dogstar but it really doesn't work in the Order.

[alt_sirius]

Well, it does if you've an irascible personality. But even a greasy curmudgeon like Severus couldn't manage complete misanthropy.

If you need to go off and be alone, just go.

[alt_rachel]

I don't really think I'd better.

I'll stop by and see Molly for a bit. I've been putting it off.

[alt_rachel]

And you're right about the hard decisions.

This is awful.

[alt_sirius]

Bill's not up for a particularly rough shag, then?

No. Probably not.

[alt_rachel]

He might be, later. Right now he's with Molly and his brothers. Can't very well pull him away.

[alt_rachel]

I think I might feel better right now if Molly wanted to curse at me and spit in my face.

She says she's grateful to me because I know Bellatrix and she thinks I'll make the right decision.

And now she really understands why I killed Stephen.

Circe.
