ORDER ONLY. Messrs. Macnair and Snape.

[alt_albus]

It would, all things considered, be advisable to trust Messrs. Macnair & Snape. Many people, after all, have hidden depths.

I shall look forward to conversing with them upon my return. (And, of course, to seeing the rest of you all.)

He's got to be kidding.

[alt_arthur]

He wouldn't kid about something like this, son.

[alt_bill]

Seriously, though. How do you expect us to accept them on your say-so? Have you interviewed them, maybe dropping in them while they've been on the run?!

You're in America!

[alt_arthur]

That's enough, Bill. Stubble it.

Private message to Arthur Weasley

Dad, you can't be serious, either! He has no way to know that they can be trusted!

Re: Private message to Arthur Weasley

[alt_arthur]

No, I don't believe that's true, son.

He created the Order. He is not going to set us upon a course that will destroy it. And he has powers that are so beyond anything that any of the rest of us have.

[alt_bill]

But he's telling us to let them in to the Order Lock, Dad! The lock that I created!

Merlin, that's one of the few, true advantages we have.

What, are you afraid that they're going to go back to Voldemort then and blab about it?

Son, they've been on the run from the Ministry for months. They'd fall in a hail of Avada Kedavras if they tried. According to Dumbledore, they won't try.

Re: Private message to Arthur Weasley

[alt_bill]

According to Dumbledore. But if he's wrong....don't you realise what will happen to all of us?

Re: Private message to Arthur Weasley

[alt_arthur]

Son, I've never seen him be wrong. About anything.

[alt_sirius]

He's not.

He may be completely round the twist, but he's not joking.
