alt_franktonks and me have been going to the camps and making contact with the people on ridley's list. tonks, you add in if I miss anything, yeah?
we've got the pass code Ridley got us, but once we've made contact, we're setting up our own. inimicus inimici mei amicus meus est. tonks came up with that chestnut. works, especially if we're going to be wearing new faces every time.
first meeting was linda toulson in hertfordshire. got her on her own easily enough, and gave her a wand as a symbol of good will. it's a costly symbol, but I think it'll ultimately be worth our while. she was suspicious of it, which was expected, but she accepted it and was a lot friendlier after she'd had the chance to test it out. she's a filing clerk, which means she could help funnel people out at solstice and lose the paperwork. so we're going to keep in touch with her.
second visit was to mitchell aldon in harlow. we found out that he moved from the hospital to payroll staff, and since we were talking up about how we were there to talk about medical records, it really didn't work to hike across camp and draw too much attention to him. so we're coming back to him. since our papers worked for the rest of the essex district, we went over to maldon. we gave the Flocktons an update about Heather and asked them if they could pass along a few trustworthy muggle and muggle born leaders in the camp we could talk to. sam gave us a few, and we managed to track down a muggle woman named daniella reid. couldn't talk for long, because she was working and was nervous, but she seemed receptive enough.
next we tried tracking down lorena elliott in manchester. she was downright hostile. I was getting ridley flashbacks with her. she took the wand, but was obviously suspicious of it and everything we said, and wouldn't give us anything useful in return. gave her the password, told her we'd be back, that was the best we could do.

And talk us over with whatever Dogstar mates she's got, if she's the kind to consult, which- I think she might not be, if you know what I mean. She seemed like the type who keeps her own counsel.
It doesn't seem like we made much progress, but I had a good feeling about Daniella Reid. We'll follow up with her, and with the rest on Flockton's list.
