Does anybody think that Grim Truth was really Sirius Black??

I heard Milly say she thought it was and that he was really alive and that's why the Muggles have all been so restless. Because he's insiting them. Well she didn't say insiting but that's what she meant. But we all saw his body. Father wouldn't be wrong about a thing like that I don't think.

It sounds as if she's quite an embarrassment to those in your year. I hope that you don't count her amongst your close friends, Harry. There are others who you can count on to tell you the truth and to not make light of such matters. Hydra, for instance.

Ugh, this is wretched.

She's actually making me feel sorry for Milli.

I heard Finnigan talking about this. That Mrs Lestrange was asking Marvolo about what Bulstrode said.

Gosh.

It was rotten of Marvolo to write about it, like that. Unless he didn't mean to get Bulstrode in such a mess. Then it was just stupid.

I KNOW. How thick must he be, to not know that it's different if HE makes a joke about things like that, as opposed to when MILLI does?

He didn't mean to. But he wasn't thinking. He won't get in trouble no matter what he says and he doesn't realise how much the rest of us could.

The really odd thing is that I think he kind of wishes Sirius were still alive. The look on his face after Milli made the joke -- maybe that's why he didn't realise she wasn't serious?

Oh I know he does.

He used to write to Sirius you know. He said to me that he was the only person who ever told him the truth. I don't know what truth though. I don't think Harry's really a revolutionary. I mean not that he could be. He wouldn't be safe for us of course, or anyone else. But still.

He used to write to Sirius?

And Sirius --

Wait, was he getting owls? From Sirius? And no one ever noticed? That's -- wow.

Re: I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up To No Good

[alt_hermione]

It was a secret. A BIG BIG secret. I don't know what was in them. He keeps them hidden. But I know he was because we talked about it a little bit. You know. Just enough for me to know what he meant.

Re: I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up To No Good

[alt_sally_anne]

I won't tell anyone.

So the owls stopped? After they said they killed him, I mean.

Re: I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up To No Good

[alt_hermione]

I don't know. I think that maybe Harry stopped writing.

Re: I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up To No Good

[alt_sally_anne]

You could tell him -- well, maybe, if you wanted, you could tell him that if he wasn't sure he could send an owl and see if it came back undelivered or what happened.

Re: I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up To No Good

[alt_hermione]

I don't think I could, though.

Re: I Solemnly Swear That I Am Up To No Good

[alt_sally_anne]

Well you certainly shouldn't if he might blab it where Mrs Lestrange would see.

He can be such an idiot.
