Order Only: Private message to Rachel, Sirius, Tonks, and Alice

Rachel, how many of our regulars wound up arrested?
 
Do you know what's happened to them?

You're thinking of Edna Parsons. Gladys Malone hasn't been round in months. Edna's the one whose landlord was working with Beth's network. She got the hell out as soon as the anti-apparition ward was lifted, I think.

Gladys moved out of New London for some job. I can't remember what. Hopefully she's far enough out of things that MLE won't come knocking.

Which means Beth's likely lost another way-station on her railroad.

Merlin. This is all my fault.

Don't be an arse, Padfoot.

All right, I know it's not really my fault. We're at war; things happen.

I just wish we could take a bloody stand and get it over, already.

And I should have killed her when I had the chance. Even if it meant Grouch killing me.

I thought the risk that held you back wasn't Grouch killing you, it was you missing Bellatrix and hitting poor Miss Hibbings.

In retrospect you should've taken the risk, yeah. She'd have been better off.

Well, yes, initially. But when she was down, I mean. In the four seconds before Farty would have closed on me.

Next time - if there is a next time - I won't hesitate.

I know you won't.

Gladys always struck me as having good sense. I'll bet she'll be able to keep her head down.
