alt_dracoThe way I understand it, not everyone wants me here and as far as I'm concerned that's just fine, since I'm not exactly thrilled to be included, either. I haven't asked to be obliviated primarily because the access to absolute secret communication is too much to give up, and also because despite the fact that he is completely rubbish at pretending to be a Slytherin, I do trust Harry's judgement and instincts. Seems you all do, too. So, there's that.
Still, he's really the only one I do trustnow, and I'm sharing a 'secret' with this group only because it's a requirement and because, as I understand it, I'll now be able to go back and read everything you've ever written. I think the fact that I'll be able to see that should create discomfort that's roughly equal to what I feel in sharing a secret with people I don't trust and, in some cases, don't particularly care for.
So, here it is.
I've known about Sirius Black and his big shaggy dog form for yonks, and I've never told anyone. I've known the truth about Harry's family for yonks, and I've never told anyone. I've lied to both my parents' faces while feeling tremendous guilt for it and they've never been the wiser. I've made pleasant conversation with my Aunt Bellatrix, who's been trying to figure Black's animagus form out for ages, and haven't given her even the barest hint. I know first hand how the Lord Protector likes to punish children but I've secretly helped Harry and Hermione to defy him anyway, because he's a mad man and I really don't much fancy mad people. Especially when they get to run things.
So, does that satisfy?

Marvolo and Hermione and Parkinson did the right thing to tell you last night. They trust you, and I trust them, and after what you did last night, I reckon you've earned your place here, same as any of us. And what you've said here is convincing.
