We've had a reasonably good visit too. And I think we've brought him round to the idea. It's not that it's without risk - just that the amount of risk is likely worth the payment if it works as Dora and I think it will.
Moony says Stephen's version of the potion works, though not as well as the original concentrate. I hadn't realised quite the difference, but then I never saw the full effect of the potion since he'd run through it before my first full moon with him. He says it makes a staggering improvement. I know Stephen wants to keep perfecting it - and good job if he could, too, as we might be able to get some in to the enclaves or at least to Mrs Granger. Meanwhile, I suppose I'll be planning my life round the moon again.
Anyway. I've stayed over a few days more to help keep Remus on-board Dora setting up her expansion, but I'm keeping an ear open for news about Snape.
We heard an amusing rumour, by the way: Apparently some chap claiming to be me has produced a leaflet version of Grim Truth. No one believes it's me, of course, and the writing is supposedly rubbish. But it's giving MLE some fits, tracking down the source. I guess people are finding ways to be resourceful. Still, with any kind of rumour that I'm alive reaching the Ministry, I'm not sure how long I ought to stay in London.
Oh - and I've asked Remus to give some thought to the spells protecting 12 Grimmauld Place. If this idea of providing safe hideouts for muggleborns does work, we may want an extra building. But I'm worried about breaking the seal on the old house. If Bella or Narcissa discover they can suddenly gain entry, it may be worse than leaving it vacant. Remus can sort that out, I'm sure - and it gives him something to do besides worry Dora's going to get herself sacked again or arrested.
