Order Only

I just got summoned to Court. For this afternoon, starting at 4 o'clock. They're letting me off here at half-three, and Desai says she and I'll go together to Buckingham. She congratulated me, so it looks as if it's to do with the Council challenge. And Finnigan just wrote me to say he's been summoned, too.

Pansy? Hydra? What about you?


Um, yeah. That just feels really out of the blue. After all this time hearing nothing, I mean.

Ron,

I say, good luck, old man. I wonder...it is awfully short notice for someone to make himself presentable to the Lord Protector, what? Do you know when Finnigan received his summons? Perhaps we can infer something by how much preparation he or others have had compared to your own.

Keep your wits about you, what, in any case. I expect it's not too unusual for someone to be frightened by the awe-inspiring sight that is Our Lord, after all.

Yeah, Finnigan didn't say. And that's not the sort of thing I want to ask. No sense showing that I'm nervous.
