Order Only: Private Message to Harry and Hermione
I've been meaning to tell you both about a few things that happened over Hols. On the night of the Gala, Teddy told me that Ned Pennifold made it clear to him that the Lord Protector is keeping an eye out for more young recruits to the council. You know how Teds is, though - I couldn't be sure it wasn't a brag or a trap, so I let it lie. But then, at Blaison on Sunday morning, before Daphs and I went to Kings Cross, Alfred Montague told me that his brother, Jason, told him the same thing: start proving your worth, the Lord Protector is watching.
Harry, if your Father is casting his net over Hogwarts, then I'm going to make myself into a fish he can't refuse.
On Saturday I more or less implied to my Father that I will be distancing myself from him publicly. Though we didn't speak of his slipping social position directly, he knew why I was warning him. He told me that he didn't want me to put myself in danger to save him, and when I pointed out to him that I've never really not been in danger, he argued that I didn't need to put myself in the Lord Protector's service so completely. He made it clear that the last thing he wants is for me to bind myself to the Lord Protector.
After a time, I think he saw that he couldn't sway me, and he said that whatever I do, don't do it for my family's standing.
Of course, he thinks that's exactly why I'm doing it.
I think it's time I ask Snape if it's possible for him to train me in legilimency.
