Order Only

[alt_sally_anne]

I just wanted to mention that while I was in Hogsmeade yesterday Avery tracked me down while I was by myself to tell me I ought to break things off with Ron because he'll never get on the Council with a half-blood girlfriend, and I'm holding him back, and when I didn't seem properly impressed he said that everyone knows Lucius Malfoy is out of favour with Our Lord and if He wants to punish Mr Malfoy for something, Avery could see to it that it was Pansy who got hurt. Because she's more expendable than Draco, or Mrs Malfoy.

He didn't say who he'd tell them to hurt instead, if I went along with it and broke things off with Ron. I'm sorry I didn't think to ask.

Anyway

I thought I should tell, well, enough people that I didn't make this a PM to Mrs Longbottom (though I did tell Ron and Pansy last night).

Even if Avery can't bend Voldemort's ear directly, there's probably someone else whose ear he can bend who is more higher ranking than he. Alliances and allegiances are crucial to most council members. The ones who don't have them end up like the Carrows.

I don't have much I can tell you that wouldn't amount to more than speculation, but I'll let you know if that changes.

Please do.

I know that this is a difficult time for you, and for your family, and that you face a very uncertain future.

Please let me know if there's anything that I can do.

And if what you truly needed was to keep your family safe, I would do what I could to help you. You are not alone, Draco.
