Alicia was running late, and she did not like running late. Granted, there hadn’t been a whole lot she could have done to make it to Finnigan’s any earlier, but that didn’t mean that she liked it any less. However, between superstitious players and children being children, that was just the way things were supposed to be today, she figured, as she entered Finnigan’s still wearing the standard Pride tracksuit – purple, of course, and complete with a gold star on the back, right under her name – and with the folder of information and ideas that had come up over the years when talk had fallen on a group home.

Not seeing Harry – though not putting too much stock in that, seeing as how the pub had plenty of blind angles – she ordered a pot of coffee and took another look around, this time looking more carefully to see if she could spot him.

Alicia nodded; believing that you were doing something that would please someone you’d lost she understood. The whole Foundation was based on the idea that both Alicia and Mrs. Fawley knew Daniel well enough to know that he would want to help children less fortunate than his own.

“Well, some people do renovations for their own peace of mind, and if that was the case, then I would let you continue doing that,” she assured him before she drew in a deep breath and cleared her throat. “Most of your donations and your volunteering for the Foundation’s been anonymous, except for the raffle which, well, plays a big part in making this possible, but I’d like you to be part of this.” She held up her hand to hopefully save any objections for later. “It’s all new, all that we have is an agreement that we want to make it happen and that since it was your idea, since you have an idea of what kids like that needs we’d like you to be part of it. Whatever restoration is needed is easily taken care of, either through volunteer help of by hiring professionals, though if we could get professionals to donate their skills and time it’d of course be better, but it’s everything behind that that takes work.” She looked at him for a moment, before she continued to round off her sales pitch. “The project is yours, if you want it. You’ll have the Foundation’s support in any way, of course.”

"I guess that's how it started, but it doesn't need to be anymore." He appreciated that she was concerned for him, but in truth doing the renovations by himself had just sort of happened.

His eyes widened when she mentioned wanting him to be a part of this--publicly. Anonymity had been something he'd insisted on at the beginning, not wanting Rita Skeeter to be able to make anything out of his donations to the house. The last thing he'd wanted then, and now, was more poor orphan Harry stories. Or something worse. He was sure Rita could come up with something worse.

But he got what she was saying, and it made sense. When she was done, he sighed. "All right. We'll do it your way." He gave her a smile to let her know he wasn't upset. "I want to be a part of it, and it's time I stopped hiding." It took him another moment to realize what she was suggesting, and he blinked. "You want me to be in charge of it? I don't know anything about this sort of thing..."
