It was nice of Merton to try to tell him what they were talking about even if he was vague on the details, but he’d figured that was what it would be after he got the invitation to drink. And if they all got wasted, well, they’d probably end up railing more then actually making any progress on what they should do about it. Either way though it appeared that they hadn’t gotten too far into either side yet.
“Of course they haven’t seen fit to explain anything,” Don said as he dug through the bag with the booze before settling on a bottle and sitting down. “If they explained it then people would probably point out the glaring holes in their logic or find some little loophole they accidently stated and they can’t have that. Have to appear all infallible and whatnot. They couldn't stand the general public questioning what they're doing for the 'good of the wizarding world' and whatnot.”
It was all a bunch of rubbish to Don, so for the moment he contented himself with cracking open his drink and taking a long swig of it.
