*Sirius reads the memo once, then again, with increasing concern. It can't be a coincidence. Not since accompanying Remus to her office. And there's clearly no way out of it; if she's gotten approval, she's gotten them specifically on order from someone. Maybe even Crouch himself.*
Fucking bitch.
*Two notes, then, one by owl and one by memo.*
Remus,
Your friend from your last visit to the ministry with me is asking for my help on a project. She picked out my role in it specially for me, most likely because we're flatmates and she knows I'm acquainted with the specifics of the work. We'll talk about it later but I thought you should know as her memo has just landed on my desk and I thought you'd be excited to hear the news.
Sirius
*Stuffed in an envelope and sent with a Ministry owl with instructions to wait for a reply if Remus wants to.
The next has rather neater penmanship, but the quill is pressed so hard to the parchment that its back bears little gouges.*
Dear Madame Umbridge,
I'm flattered that my name has come up. However, I don't think I will be suitable to your needs, I have somewhat of a conflict of interest in this area.
If you are available at three o'clock tomorrow, I will be available to discuss this further.
