Order Only - Private message to Harry and Justin

[alt_draco]

Hey-

There's something I've been wondering, and you two are the best people I can ask, because I know you're both sentimental about Sirius for different (albeit related) reasons.

Ellie leaped in front of Sirius so he could live, and near as I can tell, that's the only reason he's here now.

Are you glad about that? I mean, I know you aren't happy Ellie's dead, obviously, but when it comes right down to it, would you rather she be dead and Sirius be alive, instead of the reverse?

Of course you don't, you big tit. You're made of the same goop as the rest of us, I reckon. My point is that most people will always treat you like you're the Lord Protector's son, no matter what you tell them otherwise.

What if Patil jumped in front of you? That's her job now, isn't it?

[alt_harry]

I don't think she'd especially want to no matter what they tell her that her job is.

And I don't want her to, either.

Though if I had to choose between Patil dying and anyone else in the Order, well, she made her choices.

And I never even give Teddy a second thought. (Right now doesn't count.) And we grew up together, in a way. Not like you and I did, but he was another council wizard's kid, just the same.

[alt_harry]

Yeah, well, good.

Keep not giving him a second thought. He was like a younger, weaker version of the people we're fighting.

If Sirius had managed to kill Bellatrix yesterday I'd throw a party.
