CHARACTER LOGS
James remained usually quiet throughout the meeting. He was pleased to be selected for something so important, but frustrated that in his opinion Dumbledore was holding something back. His gut feeling told him there was more danger to the task then was being mentioned. A saving grace was that Lily wasn't selected to go.
Upon Regulus making his appearance, James's eyes widened. This confirmed to him that Dumbledore must have known he was alive sooner, or perhaps all along? James feels as if the Order should have had chance to state their opinions on bringing Regulus into a meeting of theirs. After all, how can Dumbledore know where his true loyalties lie?
James calls the Marauder's and Lily over to him after the meeting has finished, to find out what his friend's real opinions were of the meeting. His frustration is clear, but knows he should be able to trust Dumbledore's judgement. He turns to Lily and Remus for advice on how to begin figuring out how to track these 'traces' this item of dark magic would have left - and hear any thoughts on why Dumbledore might need it.
