Am I the only one who gets nervous during the solstice run?

Not at all! I'm sitting here gnawing on my nails. Knowing what happens to Sirius in canon, the current adorableness of the Longbottoms and the run of recent good luck for the Order is combining to make me really nervous.
Of course, I'm also fretting about Hydra and the earliness of the exam results and Dolohov and everything else under the sun.

I thought the thing with the exam results had to do with--what's his name--Capper? The half-blood who was sent to the camps? And all the mess around that. So they were comparatively early. Or did that not happen last year?

Hydra was writing back and forth with Tonks after school got out. So unless there's been something since then that set Bella off...
...damn it, now I'm worrying too.

(Out of curiosity, why are you fretting about Dolohov at the moment? I'm not seeing any portents of doom in that direction at the moment. (Though, um, I admit, I am slightly worried about what Raz wants to talk to him about, mostly due to having no idea what it is) Are you seeing something I'm not? Or is it just a general thing?)

Anyway, on topic (ha), I've been trying not to worry about the Longbotttons & Sirius. This has probably mostly only been successful because they haven't been, say, raiding the DoM.

(Also, you forgot Sally-Anne. Although I suppose that would fall under 'everything else')

I'm still worried about Hydra.

At this point I suspect we're rather meant to be.

Upon seeing her post I am not reassured.

It sounds like some kind of compulsion spell, but I'm not sure who would've cast it. (...could Rigel himself yet?)

Hell of a thing to be early manifestation of magic, wouldn't it be?

Well, I wasn't until you asked. (Of course, I also managed to miss the fact that it was tonight until a few minutes ago too, so, well. Can't really talk.)

Time to brainstorm ways thing could go wrong!

(Hrm. Recent adjustments to the wards, check. Is there any reason there'd be (more?) patrols? I'm not thinking of one at the moment...)

Recent adjustments to the wards, verified :(

Well, that could be... problematic.

Do they even have the resources to take care of all those people if they can't get through?

At least they got the stuff to make wands. They may need that, if they can't get them over the solstice.

Well, they did take that farm. I guess they'll send people there?

Damn it.

(Well, at least I didn't have a lot planned for tonight?)

ETA: So, wait, is Bella--she's tracking them and Beth's group. Well, that improves their odds slightly. (Although if she catches Beth, that could be... less than good for the Lazlo's contigent.)

So, um, is anyone else still up and watching this?

Apparently not.

Yeah. Going to bed in a minute, though.

But eeeeeeeeek.

It's looking like they're going to be okay at the moment, at least. I was really worried for a bit there when Sirius and Frank were going up against the wards to try to make a distraction.

They're going to have no few problems without being able to do the Solstice runs, but.

(Of course, now that I've said that, something;s probably going to go wrong.)

I sure did this time, since we didn't get our Department of Mysteries death like I expected.

I actually closed my laptop and read a book instead because I was dead sure Sirius or Frank was going to get killed and I didn't want to deal with the suspense of waiting for it. It was quite a pleasant surprise to check the next day and find I was wrong!
