I would like to have a chat, yes. What would work best, do you think? Would it be too much if Remus and myself were to both talk with her? You, Ron, and Pansy could certainly sit in so she wouldn't feel outnumbered.
Well okay. We told her to come to Pansy's tomorrow night, but you know Pansy's isn't under Fidelius so now I'm wondering if it would be better to give her the secret to 12GP and we could all go through the floo and talk there, if you wanted to ask her questions before you let her in? Although it really depends on whether you're worried about being somewhere like Pansy's.
Anyway I don't think you and Mr Lupin would be too many although it might be better if it were you and Professor Spout, since she knows Professor Sprout and that might be reassuring. Although she met Mr Lupin back when he worked at Hogwarts. Also if you decided you didn't trust her it would probably be better if she didn't know about Professor Sprout.
Ron and Pansy and I should definitely be there, whatever you decide. We'd all fit in Pansy's sitting room, at least.
We can easily set up something temporary at Pansy's to give us a little more security. You're right, Remus would be a familiar face, and he tends to be a steady quiet sort (unless he's cross, of course), and a little less overwhelming than jumping right to meeting Sirius.
Once she's in, and I'm assuming she will be, we can certainly take her to Grimmauld. I think it would also be very wise to have her talk with Professor Sprout and Madame Pomfrey as well, but after we've sorted out things on our end.
I've been wondering since our conversations about Daphne and her security whether it would be worth our while to set up a safehouse specifically for non-Order Galleon members? A place they know they can go to in New London?
But, I think someone from Hogwarts should be the secret-keeper, then. Because if you have to write notes and pass them around it would make it a lot easier for them to fall into someone's hands from MLE (someone who isn't Auror Brodie, I mean, or Ron).
Maybe Ron. Or Neville.
But, setting up the Fidelius in New London itself would be hard to do without attracting attention. Also, that's sort of telling the cleverer galleon-holders that it's not just a load of kids at Hogwarts but there are adults involved too.

I've invited her over to Pansy's tomorrow evening. Do you want to send one of the grown ups over to talk to her before you make a decision?

And yes, it does suggest things, as does what happened with Sarah, but it's also far better to provide support than not, I think.
