I know the feeling. I haven't been able to sleep since he's left.
It's not quite the same as it was when Sirius was taken. But the not knowing is hard. And while we were all waiting to hear about Sirius, I had my Frank right there next to me.
Since we've been charged with Moddey, we don't tend to put all our eggs in one basket like we used to. Going into some place we know will be dangerous together, I mean. Too much at risk if both of us
Still. I do want to be there. Badly.
The children do provide their distractions. They had quite the parade of costumes yesterday, and they were so excited about those caramel apples that I very nearly forgot how worried I was, and got quite a good laugh out of dear sweet Felicia Saint dressing up as a leek, which is her least favourite veg. And our Terry Boot, bless his heart, spent all night as the Professor keeping watch with me in the memorial garden.
He really does think quite a lot of you, Tonks. Frank, I mean. I think he finally feels like he's able to do something that's moving us forward (and I agree, of course), and he's been so impressed with how you've been able to manage things. I know you'd mentioned that you'd like to learn more, but he quite appreciates the help you've been able to give him so far, and he talks about you quite a bit.
