Leaving Jamie and Severus to their work -- both official and familial -- Alastor continued on to his. If it had been hard telling Jamie of his father's death, it was going to be even harder to tell Lily and James. Alastor had been there for Lily's pregnancy, had seen James' proud face at Order meetings before the family had gone into hiding. They, like Vance, were from his time, the first Order.
It shouldn't have made a difference.
But it did.
Making his way up to the seventh floor, Alastor knocked on the door to the Potters' quarters, trying not to think about how close they were to another Potter couple's quarters. That would only make a tough job tougher.
Knocking, he waited patiently until the door opened.
