I'm at Grimmauld

I'm safe

Where's everyone else?

Charlie. Charlie, don't come to the beer garden.

Yes.

I see.

You're secure at the moment? Who else is at Grimmauld?

Date: 2014-10-27 12:45 am (UTC)
alt_alice: (serious)
From: [personal profile] alt_alice
Yes. Of course.

She's playing with Maureen. She's safe, love. I've just given her a kiss.

From: [personal profile] alt_charlie
Can you bring Bea back to Grimmauld? I think Tonks would feel better if she could see her.

The Floo's down, though, you'll have to apparate.

alt_alice: (lookingupangelic)
From: [personal profile] alt_alice
Yes. That won't be a problem. I'll come over with her right away, and can stay and keep some company if it'd be helpful.

Missed the warning, thank Merlin I came in at the corner instead of right outside. I'm in the curry takeaway instead.

There's --

There's a Dark Mark over the shop. And one of the Aurors has Remus.

Date: 2014-10-27 12:46 am (UTC)
alt_charlie: (distracted)
From: [personal profile] alt_charlie
I was watching as much as I could but the Auror took Remus around the corner to the Apparition point and I couldn't see.

I"m trying to look like I'm just waiting for a takeaway.

Date: 2014-10-27 01:04 am (UTC)
alt_charlie: (disquieted)
From: [personal profile] alt_charlie
No, I'm all right. I got enough warning.

I'll be at Grimmauld as soon as my takeaway is ready. (Had to order something, I was getting funny looks.)

A Dark Mark? But -- but they haven't used those in years!

Oh, Charlie.

Right now the clock says we're all safe. Those of us in the family. I'll keep watch.

Private message to Charlie, Alice, and Tonks

I'm heading into the office.

You do realise I won't be able to save him. At best, I'll -- well. No guarantees of anything, really.

alt_rachel: (Paranoid)
From: [personal profile] alt_rachel
Right.

Truncheon's off-site. I don't know where. He might actually be at Doughty Conduit, or possibly they're conducting the interrogations elsewhere, which isn't unheard of.

I can't be too obviously about lingering. And there's no telling when they'll bring him in.

Date: 2014-10-27 01:33 am (UTC)
alt_lupin: (exhausted)
From: [personal profile] alt_lupin
Oh, Merlin, I'm sorry you saw that. I didn't think --

Sirius used polyjuice. That was Sirius taking me out.

Worked a treat.

If I'd seen you I'd have written sooner. Sirius got sick, and he'd been hexed -- and Terrie wanted explanations. But we're all right. Neither of us was captured.

Bellatrix apparently doesn't want Sirius alive anyway.

alt_poppy: (that was close!)
From: [personal profile] alt_poppy
Thank goodness.

alt_charlie: (tired)
From: [personal profile] alt_charlie

Well, you tell Sirius from me that his Auror impersonation is damn convincing from a distance!

Tonks and I are here at Grimmauld. She's all right, a bit shaken up but hearing you were both all right helped.

Date: 2014-10-27 01:50 am (UTC)
alt_lupin: (sly)
From: [personal profile] alt_lupin
It was damn convincing up close, too. My arm's still sore from the way he twisted it back.

It needed to be convincing, though. It was our only chance of getting out.

Thank Merlin. Thank bloody Merlin. What a sweet trick. Well done.

Private Message to Remus and Sirius

alt_poppy: (alert)
From: [personal profile] alt_poppy
I've just had a moment to re-read. You say Sirius was hexed? In your own message you said he was indisposed, and I assumed it was Apparition sickness.

What sort of hex? Have you been able to care for him? to reverse it?

alt_lupin: (sly)
From: [personal profile] alt_lupin
I don't know what it's called exactly, it causes stinging and gets worse over time. He was able to shrug it off while we were getting away, but once we were safe -- and on top of him getting sick -- you can imagine.

I know how to reverse it, though, just not how it's cast. He'll be all right. I'm not taking him anywhere else tonight, though, not even back to 12GP.

A wise choice, I'd say.

It wasn't Bellatrix who cast the hex, then? Even so, do keep an eye out for any sign it was more than a common hex.

No, she concentrated on the Killing Curse.

Which I ought to have used on her, when I had the chance, Mordred curse me. I was turning, there were too many people in the way .... I had her down. I could have ended it if I'd been a bit quicker. But then Crouch was closing and - Ellie - I knew Remus was still inside. We only had moments to escape.

If I'd stayed, I'd have had to duel Crouch with 20 odd bystanders right there.

There were too many people, lots of them were our friends, several were in the way. Could you live with yourself if you'd tried to hit Bella with the killing curse and hit Jill Hibbering?

And you were not going to be able to duel Crouch. Not with that many Aurors. You'd have made yourself a gift to the lot of them.

Hermione and I are still at the safe house near Hogsmeade, testing the wards we set up earlier.

Should we Apparate back to 12G or stay put?

Date: 2014-10-27 03:23 am (UTC)
alt_charlie: (haggard)
From: [personal profile] alt_charlie
Come back to 12GP. I need to leave in an hour or two, and I don't want Tonks alone in the house, or without someone who can side-along her once we disable the Floo.

Date: 2014-10-27 03:28 am (UTC)
alt_draco: (somewhat less certain)
From: [personal profile] alt_draco
What, isn't Kreacher there?

We'll gather our things and be off in a few.

alt_poppy: (alert)
From: [personal profile] alt_poppy
Want you to know I've seen this. Do, please, tell us if you hear from Sirius. Or Remus.

The rest of the Hogwarts contingent are all in the library listening to one of the Headmaster's Sunday lecturers. I've just been and pulled Albus away to alert him. He's gone back in and has his eye out for any sign that it's necessary to evacuate.

We aren't panicking, but if it's necessary, we'll get the children out.

From: [personal profile] alt_hermione
If you need us to help extract anyone from Hogwarts, let us know. We're right here and Harry knows just where to come.

alt_poppy: (alert)
From: [personal profile] alt_poppy
Thank you, dear, it may prove very fortunate that you've given us a safe place nearby.

If we should need to run, we will get ourselves to safety. Don't attempt to come to us. That would add difficulty to the task.

Date: 2014-10-27 01:10 am (UTC)
alt_charlie: (haggard)
From: [personal profile] alt_charlie
Right.

Starting to get crowds watching. The Aurors keep snapping at them to get back, but you know how people are. The girl behind the counter here at the takeaway looks like she's about to jump out of her skin, too.

Crowd's getting too thick, I can't see much. No sign of Sirius. Somebody inside the shop is screaming at people, although I can't tell who it is or what they're saying.

I don't dare stay much longer past when my takeaway's ready. The girl behind the counter keeps looking at me like she's trying to decide if she knows me.

Date: 2014-10-27 01:23 am (UTC)
alt_rachel: (Nervous.)
From: [personal profile] alt_rachel
Would you get out of there? They could decide to sweep the whole area!

Date: 2014-10-27 01:25 am (UTC)
alt_charlie: (upset)
From: [personal profile] alt_charlie
Yeah, I'm at Grimmauld now. I thought it would be more suspicious for me to turn around and immediately disapparate!

alt_lupin: (sly)
From: [personal profile] alt_lupin
If you look out the window, does our honour guard look like they're -- I don't know, moving in? or anything?

Date: 2014-10-27 02:43 am (UTC)
alt_charlie: (disquieted)
From: [personal profile] alt_charlie
Holding steady, but looking rather intent.

alt_sirius: (Sincere)
From: [personal profile] alt_sirius
Charlie, you should disable the Floo. It's secured by Fidelius but no sense giving MLE any sort of trail they can follow.

Date: 2014-10-27 03:22 am (UTC)
alt_charlie: (intense)
From: [personal profile] alt_charlie
Yeah, good plan. I don't like leaving Tonks without any way out, though -- I'll ask Draco and Hermione to come back so they can side-along her if she needs to evac. I have to be back at the Reserve by no later than 1:30 or I'll be in the shit, and it's not a good time to be in the shit.

I'm glad you're all right.
