harry had just had a shower and was off to bed when a rather conspicuous Phoenix  appeared letter in talon, the teen quickly snatched it from the bird shooing him into  the bathroom.

"lets see bla bla bla ass kissing bla bla Order meeting, ugh how annoying, Fawkes will bring you to and from, excited to see you....my boy, ugh he just cant help himself."

the young man got changed again into more regal cloths before holding his arm to the fire bird, who happily hopped up and then he was gone.

Luna hummed and looked at the sky, Neville was training the other members  in harrys absence, the boy had really come out of his shell and the confidence was helping his casting considerably.

no one knew yet but Luna was storing potential familiars still, she believed that as their powers grew as individuals they would be able to bond to more animals, like harry, though magic did play favorites in some cases, but the blond had been very careful in picking out some for Neville, and she hoped she would be able to get him to go for his own wand, his fathers wasnt really compatible she was surprised he could get the results that he did with it.

everyone was behaving except the Griffindors as usual, she pitied the new ones who didn't know about the politics and really had no defense, not all were too far gone in fact the more Ron and Godrick tried to incite people the more went to only associate with the students who didn't want to be a part of it and the divide was becoming more noticeable each day, she would be sending a report tonight, things were looking up, but caution was necessary lest they become careless.

the young woman stood and walked down to stand next to Neville who took her hand watching the group train, they stood there just watching Neville piping in with helpful tips and corrections when necessary.

Draco sat in the Slytherin common room, he was in the perfect spot, at least he thought so.

in a good place to be seen as a prince should be but also not too far in the center to attract too much fuss over who spoke to him, the baby death eaters, mummy and daddy's joys, those most vulnerable to being recruited by the dark lord, they talked to him and so did the ones already in the service of the dark lord, they where not allowed to converse with him at the same time, beckoned over by a small nod of approval and sent packing with a glare if they tried to approach him without consent, though few made that mistake after all Slytherin was all about subtlety and those who didn't get the hint got a rude awakening.

the position also gave him the advantage of being able to listen in on conversations even without the help of an enhancement spell which he used often.

the blond was torn, he was busy doing all the work needed for everything to go to plan however he missed his husband, the year was flying by and dragging at the same time, a feeling which dosnt really make sense but everyone knew the feeling at some point in their life.

the low ranking death eaters fell into place under him well, not having as much influence family wise or just lacking confidence, Draco didn't care he would use that and come out on top, some had to go and met an untimely end, Draco didn't want that nonsense in the way, zealots and dumb arses, really anyone who couldn't be converted.

the dragon tamer was actually one of the easiest to acquire, he was here because of his father and really only care about dragons...really that was all the man talked about, he went on for ages when Draco introduced himself, Draco now knew everything he cared about his name sake, apparently there was even more breeds and species that did not fall under a drake, truthfully the blond just zoned out for most of it now, the contacts was definitely one of the upsides, yes these people were low now but where in some interesting fields, a lot was in key ministry positions which would bare fruit in a few years especially with a little help from him and really what Malfoy didn't play the long game.
