Private message to Miss Minx and Bronwen

[alt_jason]

You've probably heard, but my Aunt and Uncle were killed yesterday--Daphne's parents. So was Athena Belby and The Clarrikers (father and son).

And over here we got a late morning report that the entire staff of Whirl magazine was slaughtered at their headquarters. As was Barnabus Cuffe of the Prophet.

It's all Crouch's doing. He's on some sort of murder spree that began with Mulciber in our last debriefing. Can't handle that Dolohov's gone, I reckon.

Everything's a mess over here, basically.

Crouch, is it.

Well then.

[alt_jason]

Minx, new update.

MLE's been ordered to apprehend Cedric Diggory. Ginny Weasley fingered him as the secret keeper for Dover, and Lady Lestrange wants Dover.

It was also decided that Seamus should be sacrificed to see if it will dismantle the wards entirely. Some doubts were raised in our meeting as to whether this would work or not, which is why they're going after the secret keeper--in case it doesn't.

[alt_rachel]

Seamus. Haven't you been keeping company with him?

Is he aware they're planning this?

[alt_jason]

Lana was the one to suggest the idea. Seamus gamely agreed to offer himself up.

[alt_jason]

I have a vested interest in making sure it doesn't come to that.

So.

Can I count on your help, Minx?

[alt_rachel]

What sort of help, exactly, do you expect to need?

[alt_jason]

If I unsnare us in time...

I want Seamus to be protected. Sent into Exile, if absolutely necessary, but not made to stand trial.

In exchange, I'll work for you and Albion as an Auror.

[alt_jason]

Protection for my parents and brother, too.
