Bill and I have gone into work. Reluctantly, but we feel we have no choice. It'll give us both a chance to quietly check our incineration spells at the office in case all is lost. We can thank Archer for teaching us that.
This is an extremely painful entry to write. Molly and I weren't willing to even think it, but Bill raised the point at 3:00 in the morning, and he's absolutely right, it has to be said.
We don't feel it's safe to bring Percy to Moddey Dhoo. He's angling for a summer internship in Lucius Malfoy's office, of all places! The paper came this morning, with that foul collection of lies about Sirius, and Percy said...well, never mind what he said. But it raised the danger of bringing him into the heart of our operations in stark relief.
What can we do? The boy is perfectly capable of apparating, after all.

It seems that Lavender Brown is having a birthday party, and she doesn't want half-blood riff raff like Luna around to interfere with the festivities! 'I'm afraid Luna will feel rather in the way,' is the way Mrs Brown put it, the spiteful cat!
Well, of course I said we'd be delighted to have her come here and spend the day with Ginny. But oh, Arthur...what happens if the clock changes while she's here?!

if he chooses to stay, he can plead ignorance and separate himself from you best as he can, and a quick verisatum will clear him right off. and if he chooses to go with you, it'll be of his own free will.
