Errrr... I rather collapsed ina fit of exhaustion today. I'm going to run out for food and caffeine, then write something up, then post, then return to sleep.

Sorry for the delay.

It was silent in William's head, even as the chatter of the tavern rose and fell, glassware clattered, and some silly bint was laughing in the most vexing high pitched way. It was loud, but not in William's head. There was silence, tempered by determination and anticipation.

William waited, an arm casually thrown along the worn cushion of his little corner booth. Pale green eyes lingered in their lazy travels around the bar, waiting for figures to emerge from the smoky near darkness. They should arrive shortly.

Percy. Granger. Johnson.

They would arrive. Information would be shared over a pint. And then people would die and Ginny would be saved. Or people would die and Ginny would be avenged.

Hermione walked swiftly down the street to the bar, sorting information in her head. Ginny was missing. One of their own, kidnapped. She was meeting Bill...William and the others to discuss a plan.

Angelina walked down the street towards the bar, barely noticing the passerby. She was fighting down her temper at the news of Ginny's disappearance. She couldn't do anything about Katie. That had frustrated her no end. So this time she had opted to act, getting in touch with Bill... William she corrected patiently. Angelina offered her help, such as it was. They had to bring Ginny back safely.

Punctual despite his various misgivings about this endeavor, Percy enters the tavern shortly after Hermione, recognizing the young woman's distinctive hair and following her toward William's booth. When they reach the table he greets them both with a polite nod. "Miss Granger," he says formally, and then, "William," with a brief glance at his brother's face.
