ORDER ONLY
Apr. 19th, 2014 11:17 pm(They're both out and safe.
They're up with their families getting checked out by the doctors, but they look to be in good shape and good spirits despite everything.
Mr L said to tell everyone he's a hard-headed stubborn bastard who doesn't die that easily. He also wanted to pass on to Madame P and Mr Dumbledore that when the rocks started falling, he cast a wandless shield without even thinking. He said he could feel it strong as anything, like he'd never lost it, only he couldn't hold onto it for more than a minute.
I guess that minute made all the difference, though.
Mr and Mrs King also wanted to express their profound gratitude to everyone for helping to free Wendy.
We need to clear out as much of the Apparation space as possible so we can more easily get supplies in from Bedford and Aldrich, and we need to shore up the tunnel to make sure it won't collapse again. I figure I'll stay down here and see what I can do, hey?)

Private Message to Colin and Frank
Date: 2014-04-20 06:53 pm (UTC)You and Neville both kept your heads under incredibly difficult circumstances, were careful and quick in your actions, and you worked so very hard.
You took care to get Evie and Mrs King to safety in the chaos. You and Neville worked as a team to take charge and coordinate a dozen volunteers, and had things running like clockwork by the time we arrived.
And when we'd cleared Frank and Wendy King from the rubble, you kept going.
I'm so grateful, Colin. I'm so very proud.
We'll all talk further about this Forbidden Forest possibility when you've had a chance to rest up for a bit, but know that you've proven yourself more than capable.
I hope you've managed to get some rest, as you've certainly earned it. I don't want you splinching when you come back home. Let me know once you're ready to make the journey, and I'll fetch you.

Date: 2014-04-20 07:06 pm (UTC)I'd do anything for you and Mr L.
I'm just glad to be of use.
Nev was a brick, too. Couldn't have done it without him, hey? And he was the one wrangling volunteers. I just followed his lead.
We left off around eight or so this morning, after the tunnel passed some stress tests and trial Apparation runs, and I kipped for a few hours. They're making regular trips back and forth from Aldrich and Bedford with volunteers and supplies now that the tunnel is more secure. There's a few more side tunnels that need looking at, but if you'd get me in time for dinner, I'd appreciate it. Might go back tomorrow, too, if that's all right by you.
And give my best to Mr L and Nev and Evie, will you?)
Re: Private Message to Colin and Frank
Date: 2014-04-20 07:09 pm (UTC)I'll be by around six.
And yes, that would be fine by me, as long as you're careful not to overwork yourself. Saltash certainly could use the help, and Frank is not going to be travelling until he's had the chance to rest up a bit.
