But you're not grumpy, normally. That's the difference.
And people will notice if you're too cross all the time.
I don't think your parents would have minded, our stopping Umbridge. Only that they didn't do it sooner. No one liked her, least of all your father or Professors Lestrange and Dolohov, so they'd probably approve if you and Harry told them it was us. Well. Not that we rescued Fawcett or sent her to Moddey.
And Professor Dolohov...Sally-Anne thinks he knows it was some of us, down in the Department of Mysteries. And he hasn't done anything. I think he approved of us saving Arista Selwyn and her brother.
But planning a revolution can't all be those sorts of things. Sometimes it's normal things. Back before we even had the journals it was years in between messages and that made it sort of exciting.
I think it's the same everywhere, though, isn't it? I mean, if you read other people's journals it's not some major drama every day, it's 'Wish we had lamb tonight' or 'I'm planting parsnips in my garden, Myrna says it's daft to put them between the zinnias but it'll give us something for winter' or 'I've run out of Spell-o-Tape' and honestly, who cares about any of that even if it's your friends saying it?
If it's any consolation, I don't think they expect us to care about what's going on at Aldrich or Sherwood but at least it's there and we can help when they need something like a distraction. Or we can keep our eyes open and help deflect attention even before the Order know anyone's looking in their direction.
Like, with Bill. Now he's working for Mr Mulciber and Mr Mulciber's awful. So maybe we could find out things that would help make his job easier.
