HAPPY, HAPPY FAMILY

oliver
av, did you see the article the daily prophet wrote about you?

avalon
what
omg
am i famous
does the quibbler want to interview me

oliver
no
they did an exposé on the entire investigation
a tell all, with the source being cited as 'anonymous' and painting you as the bad guy
which i didn't even think was allowed while a criminal investigation was still going on

mum
let me check with fleur
it's not allowed
like, it can get the whole case thrown out if even a small detail about the investigation is leaked

avalon
what do we do?

dad
don't freak out
but i say we burn down the daily prophet

isabel
I AGREE
FINALLY SOMEONE IS MAKING SENSE AROUND HERE

mum

mum
our daughter was poisoned and you want to say i'm no fun?

dad

avalon
seriously, though, what do we do?
i don't want the investigation to get thrown out
i just want to be done with this

mum

i might have to pay a visit to the daily prophet, though

arthur

mum

mum
WHO TOLD YOU THAT

isabel
