Order Only Private Message to Macnair

[alt_severus]

Our discussion of yesterday evening has made me realise once again it is almost certainly time for you and I to make some contingency plans, in the event the Order is unable -- or, more likely, unwilling -- to do what needs to be done to achieve the ends they profess to desire. While Alice Longbottom is less likely to stand around wringing her hands and bleating about morals than certain others might, I agree with you it is unlikely any of that lot will be likely to fully accept the blatantly obvious conclusion that this war will not be won with purely clean hands.

I also appreciate your offer to be the one to propose the necessary actions rather than requiring us to fight through the instinctive reactions of certain members of that company to firmly attest the sky is green simply because I have stated it is blue.

Nice of you to have me 'round yours. I'd return the favour if I had a place of my own, but as it is I just go where I'm needed.

Way I see it, time spent thinking of ways to do things clean only draws the thing out. Then it's probable that even more unclean things will be required to make up for time lost.

Don't know why they'd listen to me more than you. Could be I don't talk back as much as you.

Then again seems they've forgot I was ready to murder the Potter's boy cos I though the deed was the key to ending Voldemort.

That alone ought to make it clear I'll do whatever it takes.
