Harry had to look amused at how 'careless' Tom looked, it was so hard to imagine that man being the most feared man in the world, it really was. “yes I'm staying this time, I only left because I was.... sick.” he stated simply. “the stress of dealing with all you fuck heads was getting to me.” he stated simply. “anyway, I left him a letter but he didn't get it so your punishment turned into a torture instead, sorry about that.” he stated with a small smirk, not looking sorry at all. “well, that would work, after all I'll have knowledge that the fraud doesn't, and i do have my own wand, so that will be a good blow in Dumbledore's plan.” he admitted. “it doesn't work for me anymore, being that I'm not a wizard, but it should be proof enough.” he decided, playing with the wand in his hands, his head tilted. “how do you propose we do this then? It's not like you can just walk out into the world again declare your not the bad guy and expect people to stay and listen do you?” “reporters, their always looking for a good scoop, especially Rita skeeter.” one of the Lestrange's admitted suddenly. “if we tell them that Dumbledore is going to hold a press conference....” “they'd come flocking along with as many assassins as Dumbledore can find, not to mention the auror's.” Lucius stated shaking his head. “maybe it should just be Harry Ashlin and a few other for certain death eaters?” “that way Our Lord will still be safe, and we can address the public.” “after all, being a death eater doesn't mean we did anything wrong.” “and if we send some of the more influential characters....” “then the Aurors would be hesitant to do anything for fear of getting in trouble.”
