Order Only

 By now you have no doubt heard about the Hogwarts situation- I was not even informed until this morning. "We didn't wish to worry you, Minerva, with your health so delicate of late." Am fighting to learn more, but no one seems to be at their Floo. Composing Howlers, but how much can they ever do?

Any information that can be uncovered will help me: to be seen as having "little birds" that give me information will only help my reputation, with the Inner Circle. But I must be careful to cast this as anger at La Umbridge's impinging on my territory, not sympathy to traitors.

Oh, if I had my mouth, I would bite!

Minerva.

Life is unpredictable.

Don't take this the wrong way, but -- check the book today. Please. As Alice asked you to, over a week ago Tell us if there are any new names.

Minerva;

If you can, I'd like to know more about the source of this. Is it a political move by Umbridge? Was there any actual "treason" at work here? What was so damning?

Is Auror Crouch in her pocket?

Will all the children's private messages be put to similar levels of scrutiny?

I suppose this is one moment to be more than a little grateful for the method created by the twins -- the Juniors won't be caught in this particular trap -- but I can imagine there'll be more than a few students and parents in a panic over this, and Merlin knows they'd have to keep it to themselves.
