It’s been a rather quiet day in Chicago. Nothing too eventful, which could either be a blessing or a curse, depending on your point of view, but regardless-the day is quiet.

Gilderoy is up on the roof at midnight as promised, dressed in a suit that is, shockingly, both new and normal-looking. Rest assured that it was extremely expensive (where'd he get the money from?
