Order Only: Private message to Padfoot and Tonks : comments [Remus Lupin]

I think we've got two choices. One is using that spell. The other is keeping Bea shut away from anyone not in the Order.

Which do you think would be worse?

It would only be for ~~two~~ three or four -

Yeah. Yeah, maybe you're right.

I'll try it this afternoon and she how she tolerates it. Probably need a proper test, though.

[link] [parent] [reply]

What sort of test do you have in mind?

Well, first I want to make sure it won't give her the collywobbles.

But then, we'll have to try it on her in circumstances where she might actually try telling someone the dog is really named Sirius, or whatever else we're prohibiting her from saying. Or doing, come to that.

So eventually we'll have to create those circumstances, encourage her to tell the very thing we don't want her to tell, and then let her feel punished for doing what we've asked.

Does it punish her, or prevent her?

I suppose from her perspective there's not much difference.

I was four, when I got bitten.

I understood I couldn't tell people I was a werewolf, but there were all sorts of things I didn't quite realise were dead giveaways. After we had to move, that first time, my mother -- well. After that, I was better about not talking about it.

I don't like that solution. But we've a good deal more at stake here than my parents did.
