I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up To No Good: Sirius Black

That's totally him, in the picture. The way he was carrying that person -- surely it was one of the muggleborns who escaped that night. That's HOW they got away, he was helping them. Madam Pomfrey must have Of course the paper says he's kidnapping a victim to use his body parts in Dark Potions but that's rubbish, he'd NEVER. And his people would never have set off an explosion that treated the muggleborns like the eggs in the basket you don't care if you break.

I can't believe it got in the paper -- well, I suppose with Mr Malfoy hurt, it's less surprising, he oversees an awful lot of stuff.

I'm not surprised MLE is saying it's a fake, but they surely know it's not.

I hope he's good at hiding.

How would your parents have even known what he was doing? It's not as if he posted a GRIM TRUTH: MUGGLEBORNS TRAPPED UNDER PROTECTOR'S BOX, WILL BE RESCUING AS MANY AS I CAN CARRY message.

All your parents would've known was, there was a horrible explosion right by you and Fred and George!

I did tell Madam Pomfrey that I thought the worst of the explosion might have gone into the servant's area and that they probably really needed a healer. But that was a private message. I think most of the people in your parents' section didn't even know there was a servant's area up near level 20.

Oh.

That's true.

Yeah.

So maybe

Only

If they were working with him, they'd have known he was going to be there, right? And they'd have been part of whatever he was planning. Only it looks like they weren't.

I don't know.

1. They might not tell each other everything.
2. They might have had some plan that got blown to hell when the explosion happened and from that point on people were just improvising.
3. They might have had a plan that could have included your parents running over to help free the injured muggleborns except that they were going to have Ginny with them and Neville and Evelyn so they really couldn't.

I mean my plan for the day did not involve running around healing people who'd gotten hurt so bad they might die. And neither did Pansy's. We just climbed down out of the box and did what we could.

If we'd planned in advance I would have told Harry that he NEEDED to have Su Li come and sit with us because she did a bunch of the mediwizardry stuff during CCF and was quite good at it. And we'd have planned that in advance and so on. But instead she was off somewhere with her foster family, nowhere near the people who were seriously injured. I even could have sent her a message, I suppose, but I didn't think of it and anyway I don't think she could have gotten to where we were.
