Private message to Lucius Malfoy

[alt_selwyn]

Fudge hasn't given you any more trouble, has he? Any fidgeting from the Prophet? Letting word get out before things are entirely settled is just an invitation to trouble.

My sources say Old Glendower was seen with Nott. Could be nothing, but I'm keeping an eye on them. Any news from your sources I ought to know?

Fudge has been ... corrected for the time being.

Toshenka says that there is spreading restlessness throughout the capital. Whatever we decide, we must decide it before to-morrow's wireless address.

Rather wish I'd gone out with him to prowl. Could use a bit of straight-forward excitement, the kind that does not require thinking five steps ahead.

Half-one. Merlin. Still no Bella - or had Barty not told you we expected her back this evening? - and I'm to meet Gus with his report on Strangeweale and Maule at five.

Flooing back to the St James' house, then, for a few hours. Should anyone have need urgently.

Oh. Kindly remind me to restore Fudge his voice after our morning debrief. Assuming he continues to behave himself.
