Should I go have a little chat with our friend in Azkaban?
- H.P.

Too obvious, besides he knows how to push your buttons now.
- H.G.W.

Scrimgeour?
- H.P.

MI7 operatives can’t be pulled for Auror investigations, you know that Harry.
- H.G.W.

Ron?
- H.P.

It can’t be the three of us! He’s used to us by now. Knows how to slither out of answering questions. And Ron, really? He’s the one that got us into this mess in the first place!
- H.G.W.

Well I don’t see you coming up with any ideas.
- H.P.

Can I just say? My aunt questioned him, you know. 1981. Only one in the Ministry to crack him. If I pull my hair back I look just like her. Think I should do it?
- S.B.

How would that going to help?
- H.P.

I think its a good idea. Scare him a little. Pull some bad memories up, disturb him, makes him easier to crack.
- H.G.W.

Precisely.
- S.B.

Think you can manage?
- H.P.

Harry it’s very thoughtful of you to ask, but I did learn under the only wix to have ever cracked Frederick Yaxley - as well as several other Death-Eaters.
- S.B.

Harry you can’t just ask people if they can manage something!
- H.G.W.

Er. Okay, I guess?
- H.P.

I can’t believe you let Vakhashivili go visit Azkaban! Do I really have to do everything for you and Ron?

- Harry

Oh.Oh. Oh no.
- Hermione
