Order Only: Hydra and Auror Lestrange

[alt_hermione]

Hydra just came and asked me to follow her wearing Harry's cloak. She said Elise Urquhart came into the common room just now and told her that her mother's here to speak to her and she needed to come with her, and Hydra said she asked if she could put her books in her dormitory and Elsie said yes but to be quick about it, but instead she came and found me and asked me to go get Harry's cloak right away and to catch up as quickly as ever I could.

So that's what I'm doing. I'm sure it's to do with what happened on the 1^st, with Justin and all.

I'll keep everyone posted.

No, I do imagine you, it's just that I was afraid you'd make fun it seemed a little, I don't know.

I imagine you being, I don't quite know what to call it, the person who shows the other purebloods that it's going to be better for them, too. Someone in the middle, who was supposed to be at the top of the old regime so people will believe you when you say, 'this will be worth it.' When I imagine us all years in the future sometimes I imagine you as Minister -- only, you know, one who's actually running things and isn't just Voldemort's scapegoat when things go wrong.

I tried picturing Hermione as Minister just now but honestly she's SUCH A GRYFFINDOR. Politics are one thing I'm not sure she'll ever be all that good at. She'd be a brilliant Headmistress at Hogwarts, though.

I can't say that particular scenario ever occurred to me, but I suppose it might work. Convincing other purebloods, I mean - I'm not sure about being Minister. Someone more likeable should be Minister, and I'll just feed him or her all the best ideas.

Too right she's a gryffindor. She just now rubbished me for being worried about her - as if it's completely ordinary to go sneak around Bellatrix under an invisibility cloak. If she'd been caught, she'd not just have been in trouble for spying, but also for stealing her Master's property. Which meant she would have been sent back to the camps, at best, or just killed right on the spot by Bellatrix.

Probably killed on the spot, unless the Headmistress -- well. Nothing good would have come of it.

Who would you have sent instead? Really, anyone caught spying on Bellatrix would have been in deep trouble. I'd have gone too, though, if Hydra had asked me. Not because I'm a Gryffindor, just because I wouldn't have thought about how dangerous it was until it was too late to back out.

I would have sent myself, I suppose. Or Harry. He can't occlude very well but Bellatrix would probably think he has the right to spy on whomever he pleases.

Ugh, I wish sending Harry would have made things better but... who even knows.

What would she have done to you if she'd caught you? Speaking of Slytherins acting like Gryffindors.

Ron acts just like this, you know, when there's something he wants to protect me

wait

you're

you have feelings for Hermione, don't you. No wonder So that's why











Does she know?

Re: Private message to Draco

[alt_draco]

Well, that's the first time anyone's ever compared me to Weasley, I'm sure.

I wouldn't want anything bad to happen to Hermione. None of us would, would we?

But that doesn't mean I have feelings for her. I don't have them for anyone. There's nothing for her to know.

Re: Private message to Draco

[alt_sally_anne]

Of course no one wants anything bad to happen to Hermione. But

well, I'm not going to try to talk you into telling her, I mean even if she liked you back I'd say this week proved conclusively that secret relationships that happen anywhere within the walls of Hogwarts are maybe not the best idea ever.

Re: Private message to Draco

[alt_draco]

There's nothing to tell.
