Private Message to Bella and Barty

[alt_narcissa]

Sister, dear, I am sure you are quite occupied with the implications of resurrecting Barty, so I'll be brief.

The body. I'll lay odds it's Norah. Barty, do you think that could be the case? She was so hysterical that day, about your safety. Oh, I don't suppose you've read my entry, not with all this going on.

It's just a thought. I'm sure you've already considered it. But if it's correct - Barty, I'm so sorry, if I'm right.

I'm sorry, dear, but - how do you know? I mean, how can you be so sure of that?

[alt_crouch_jr]

Ah. There you are crossing into the realm of restricted information.

[alt_narcissa]

Spoilsport.

Hire me as a consultant, then, and you may divulge to your heart's content.

Or is that to mine?

[alt_crouch_jr]

Sorry to disappoint.

[alt_narcissa]

Why, Barty. Are you saying I've not got what it takes to serve MLE?

[alt_crouch_jr]

No, indeed.

Not trying to frustrate your heart's desire, either. For that.

In fact, it's not merely MLE matters that limit me.

If you take my meaning.
