Order Only -- Dear Order Members.

[alt_severus]

I have been told I must be more 'accessible.'

Therefore.

• No one is properly dealing with Harry. He requires closer mentorship. Be silent, Black; you do not count as a 'mentor.'
• I had no access to proper information, or proper ingredients, at Minerva's home.
• We require someone other than Minerva in contact with the highest echelons. Entirely too much pressure is upon her.

Finally,

• I discovered to-day while having lunch with Ms. Acton that she has been sniffing around about 'anti-Protectorate Youths.' I was able to tell her that none of the Weasleys have, to my knowledge, been anti-social, though they are high-spirited.

I hope you shall see my purpose now.

The highest echelons of what, pray tell?

As for ingredients and other resources, when you asked to be supplied, you were supplied. Do not think that your being on site here will make it any easier to share limited supplies of the materials we have. Or that you will have higher priority than you had previously. If anything, being present and a present source of annoyance may make certain of us less inclined to magnanimity.

I trust your lunch with Gwen Acton was reward enough for making what was the obvious responsible reply to her malicious politicking. Did you wish a medal or a chest to pin it on for behaving with common decency?

As for Mr Marvolo, one wonders what you can hope to accomplish.

For starters, you've not chosen the most promising cover identity for establishing a connection with him. Unless you intend to dun him with endless detentions. And I have little hope that would be a strategy for winning his favourable attention.

Beyond that, I will confess to you, Severus, that you are very nearly the last person I would wish to see mentoring the boy. I cannot think of even one trait you've shown us that would recommend you for the task.
