Looks like Thomas is off! I got to do some big & noisy stuff--that was fun--plus a couple of strafing runs in the air that I'm not sure did much.

Hiding now--hoping to pop up and get them after me again, lead 'em on a wild goose chase.

Footsteps--got to stop writing n

Excellent. Keep it up, but be careful. And if you go down, go kicking and screaming. Make them work to take you.

What about the courier? Witch or wizard? In reasonable shape or injured? What could you tell?

[alt_susan]

Whew. Auror went past--this thicket is good cover, but prickly.

He had the the courier with him--a short, dark-haired witch. She looked a little scraped up but otherwise all right.

I saw them get going but lost track of him while I was distracting--he sort of blinked out and I think he's doing short-range Apparation. I can't imagine he's going far-especially Side-Alonging the courier.

Yeah, I'm playing hide and seek with them, too. I just tried to key to Dean's position but I missed him. I think something's wonky with the charms today, anywiz. Have you tried using them at all?

And about Dean: unless he's doing loads better now we really need him to, I don't think he can Apparate very far at all. Especially if he's having to side-along someone else.

Hope they don't splinch.

[alt_susan]

Whoa! Just saw Thomas on his broom again but he doesn't have the courier any more.

D'you suppose he stashed her somewhere and just has the codes now? Least he hasn't splinched.

Time for big flashy distraction #2?

[alt_ron]

Do it!
