The paper! Have you seen it?!

Bugger, bugger, bugger. I hadn't even seen the paper yet this morning myself--had a bit of a lie in--but I just went down the hall and got a copy myself.

Let me think.

The announcement itself, I imagine, must still be in Bellatrix Lestrange's hands. They would have had to have shown it to the press in order to have them print it--and they printed it. I mean, the picture and everything, Frank. But no way would she have let the press keep it.

Frank, do you remember where you got the parchment that you used for the birth announcement on?

[alt_molly]

Frank! Did Alice keep one for herself as a keepsake? Mums do that sort of thing...maybe for a scrapbook for Kevin or something? I realise she won't be back till tonight, but perhaps one of the girls working in the nursery might know, if you don't. Can you run some tests on the parchment?

[alt_molly]

Oh, my goodness, I can find my own. I'd forgotten, I'd tucked it away so the children wouldn't find it.

Bill, could I meet you for lunch? I'll bring it with me, and you can run any tests on it then.

[alt_frank]

and after you get done testing, you'd better burn it.

[alt_bill]

Yes, that's a good idea.

And for goodness sake, you'd better charm it so it looks blank when you bring it with you.

Bloody hell.
