Well, Sirius's plan had been a good idea, at any rate. James was not entirely disappointed that they hadn't managed to find the reporter, although it could mean that Death Eaters had gotten to him (or her, if she were writing under an alias) first. All the same, he chose to take no news as good news - to mean that the reporter had more brains than they had initially given him credit for, and had made himself difficult to find. That was the optimistic explanation, but if he couldn't be optimistic in the face of these kinds of odds, what was optimism good for, anyway?
He needed to be optimistic about something, after all. The Muggleborn Registration Committee sounded nothing but ominous, and he had less time than he'd expected to prepare for Hogwarts, to help the Order, to spend time with Lily. Not in that order of personal preference, of course, but he would put the needs of the Order, and the world, before the things he wanted.
After removing the disguise he'd worn to the Prophet offices, he Apparated over to Lily's, landing just inside the door. He was still running on a bit of the adrenaline that came from his mission with Sirius, which was good - he didn't want that to go away, he wanted to remember that he was doing things and not simply reacting to the moves the other side was making. Putting a smile on his face for Lily, he shook away everything else he was thinking about, at least for the moment. They only had a little bit of time left together, they should spend as much of it smiling as possible.
