Owl to Alice Longbottom and Sirius Black

*Fabian's handwriting, never neat at the best of times, looks particularly agitated.*

Alice, Sirius -

This is bollocks, come over tonight, we need to go over this. Nine-ish. Or whenever. I don't care.

So behaving ourselves is out, then? Night, mate.

Since when do I behave myself? Got to work on it if that's what you think of me.

*But it's lighthearted, and Sirius is smiling for the first time since getting Umbridge's memo. He takes a handful of powder and tosses it into the fireplace.*

Night.

*Fabian waves Sirius off, settles back deeper into the couch, and finishes off the last of his Ogden's. He's quiet for a second, then looks up at Gideon with a grimace.*

...We do have to tell Molly, you realize.

Oh lord, do we ever.

Flip you for it.

No, no, I should do it. Damn it, though, you know she's going to lose it.

*Sighing heavily, he runs a hand through his hair and looks up at Gideon unhappily.* Best face to face, yeah?

Afraid so. Bring a hankie. Ten hankies, maybe, and give Arthur the headsup.

I'll come with, if you like. Be a nice change from takeaway.

God, you have to, this is not a one-man job. I'll owl Arthur, set something up.
