ORDER ONLY

[alt_alice]

We're in place for the Octoboros event tomorrow. Cecelia and Sarah are camping at the central stone tonight to make the final rune carvings. They've decided to replace the emerald with jet, as it will better serve our purposes. We should find out whether we've been successful with our first phase in a few short hours.

We've had a rather terse message from Beth -- apparently, we're not to use the drop point any more. If there's to be more communication, it'll come at her discretion. I am not sure whether she's been able to give assistance to any of the regulars at Laszlo's who are currently dodging MLE. Rachel, do you have any information from the investigation? What has it been like for those of you who have been questioned so far?

I know tomorrow is going to be a tense day for those of you at Hogwarts. Draco, Hermione, Molly, Rachel, thank you for your help with additional safety measures. Harry, Hydra, Ron, Justin, Daphne, I very much hope everything goes smoothly for you, as well as for the rest of the school.

I'm worried about Ron. And Justin. Draco mentioned the Frost Faire, and I

I just hope everything goes well. Here and there both.

Won't be for lack of diligence on your part if it doesn't. I'm dead impressed with the amount of work you've done.

[alt_evelyn]

You came up with the formula! I just ran it a few hundred times.

[alt_sinistra]

You've both done amazing work. Truly. So very impressive.

(So have Cecilia and Sarah, mind. The runework is also quite impressive, what they've come up with, to make everything anchor.)

[alt_jeremy]

Tomorrow will tell, yeah?

(About to down a sleeping draught. Won't help anything if I'm bleary at work.)

[alt_sinistra]

I'm afraid I don't have any more useful news. Tosha really has no idea what to expect. Or who.

(I gather Nic Broome, who usually handles these kinds of arrangements, has no idea either. That's quite worrisome.)

I'm cancelling my night classes, on the grounds that even if everything goes well and easy, no one's going to be in any mood to study nor I to teach. That means I'll be available if there's need.
