James: Worse than you already are? Is that possible?
James: I'll get the guest list when I get back. There's no way it was /just planned/. We were all told not to tell anyone where the wedding was being held, in case anyone overheard. It was the exact thing we were trying to avoid. It was someone that was there. Someone had to let them in, because no one in this family would have told. We all hate reporters.
James: It couldn't be the snitch. If that's the case, we're looking at Sam, Finn, you, me, Lily, Gracie, Hugo, Rose, Dom, Lou, Hunter. I don't see any of them bringing Death Eaters to a wedding.
James: They won't let me into the office. I'm on forced bereavement leave, apparently. I'll talk to someone inside. If we want to get people on Veritaserum, we need to make the bloody thing first. Or nick it from somewhere.
James: Then we rebuild. Fight harder, fight better. Screen everyone before we add any new members. Start with the people we trust, and go from there.
James: They want a war, they've bloody well got one.
Elliott: You know how I am about a good challenge.
Elliott: Point. I don't want to say take your time. But I know there's limits, on what we can done and how fast. Especially if you're on bereavement. The only bright side is your dad probably is too? Any chance that'll lessen security a little? Maybe let a certain someone borrow a clue and use a disillusionment charm and see what they find find in the offices?
Elliott: Making it is best. Less questions that way. Should we consider making Polyjuice, too? We might have a use for it later. Could be better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it.
Elliott: I'm in. But I'm going to need you to talk me down, if we're only going people we trust. My list is small, and conditional, but I'll listen to your judgement. You know that. How do we want to keep it a secret, though? The Fidellus Charm obviously didn't work. Tongue Tying Curse has it's weaknesses. I'm personally fond of Unbreakable Vows, myself.
Elliott: We'll make them pay, James. I promise.
