Your first full week in The ORG of the Phoenix is done! Congratulations for making it through to the weekend ![:kudo](http://i.imgur.com/haoRaBw.gif) Feel free to update us with your thoughts all weekend long as you see fit, but here are some question prompts to get you started: 1. How have you enjoyed your first week here? What moments stand out to you? What do you hope will perhaps be different next week? 2. When and how did Aberforth become the consensus target? Was it a development you were pleased to see? 3. Now that you've had more time to get to know your Side Buddies, who do you feel closest to? Please rank them all in order of how much you trust them. 4. If your Side needs to vote again on Sunday night, what would you like to see happen? What do you expect to see happen? 5. What do you know about the dynamics on the other Side? How do you think your PBvO partner is faring, and how do you expect your reunion to go if/when it occurs? 6. Between Pureblood vs Order, House Points, Switch and Flick, Owl Post, Matched Challenges, and potential Hidden Immunity Items... how are the Twists affecting the Game? How will they be impacting your decision-making moving forward?

I'm definitely not fit but I will do the best I can. 1. Honestly I'm having a lot of fun with this character. At the same time I'm starting to feel literally half-dead because there's so much to do and no time to do it. Like I keep repeating myself but do you have any idea how long it takes for me to conduct just one decent message? Also I have way too many things outside of this board that I need to do. Like vote in SV and harass Locky for songs in BotB ![:smh](//storage.proboards.com/7252598/images/qNnigqDBRwmLStksufWc.gif) Well, next week is quite literally going to be the worst week I've ever played a game and frankly if I survive this I'm convinced that there's nothing I can't do here (I probably won't tbh, although of course I'll put up a good fight). I'll be on a plane half of Wednesday (including when magical council would be and obviously there's only so much time I can commit to this even after that while I'm in Italy. My main issue is that I've come to really hate typing these messages on mobile and I will not drop this character for any inconveniences, dammit. 2. Yes and no, honestly I was more than happy to let others drive that vote considering the position I'm finding myself in the middle of two alliances so as long as I can keep both of those happy everything's good. Next up I'd really like to boot Fletcher, and I hope that Lily/Tonks/Oliver understand too that trying to push it could be pretty dangerous, although if I'm perfectly honest I feel like I could probably get Moody and Diggle to boot Shacklebolt too, but tbh I don't really want to. I hope I didn't come off too strong at Lily by making the case for booting Fletcher but I hope that it would show her instead that I'm serious about wanting to work with her in particular. The only thing I'm bit worried about is that she would see it as me trying to protect Shacklebolt, which it isn't really. Those two would still be my preferred next two targets. 3. This is an interesting question, because I'm not really sure if I trust anyone currently. Like there are certain things that make me feel like maybe I'm over sharing with Lily. I want to trust her, but I probably don't entirely. So with that being said it would probably be like this: 1. Diggle 2. Oliver 3. Lily 4. Moody 5. Tonks 6. Shacklebolt 7. Fletcher I probably could elaborate, but that's too much even for me now. I need to get to sleep 4. See question 2. I really want to make sure it's still going to be Fletcher. Honestly he worries me the most in case he manages to be more active for the weekend that he could change the dynamics over here more than I'd like. 5. So I could write a whole chapter about this too. Based on the exchange of letters I think it goes something like this: 1. Malfoy 2. Yaxley 3. Crouch 4. Karkaroff 5. Lestrange 6. Hedwig's killer 7. Black 8. Pyrites I have heard absolutely nothing of Pyrites. Not a single beep, which makes me fairly certain that if he is active he has nothing to do with Malfoy's circles (actually I could try to see how much he spends online). Also heard about Black only shortly through someone, maybe Tonks, so I do think it's possible that those 3 that I listed on the bottom have more together than the first 5. 6. Well, I'd be lying if I said that the Owl Post wasn't ![:P](http://images.proboards.com/new/tongue.png) As for everything else, not really, even if I'm kinda trying to make others think of the PBvO twist more because currently it undoubtedly benefits me to have our Side focused on those whose partners aren't close with people on the other side.

Also, diggle told moody about how the idols work (instead of me) once lily told him so that'll drop both of them lower ![:P](http://images.proboards.com/new/tongue.png) oliver #1 and everyone else is kind of problematic now ![:P](http://images.proboards.com/new/tongue.png)

Honestly I'm not sure if I trust Tonks at all. She's checking all the boxes of things that you're supposed to say and it feels just sooooo transparent, and for after the game reading, I do want to trust her, I'm just not sure if I do Also tbh I find both tonks and lily pretty suspicious for how disinterested they seem about this whole idol thing. Tonks more so, but lily telling diggle about the idol without consulting with me while I was literally trying to help her, was either pretty foolish or premeditated and sneaky. Also for after the game reading, in normal circumstances I'd understand not being completely straight with me because that's how it is sometimes, but when it literally requires 2 people to work together to avoid anyone else having a crack at it, sharing that information before you have confirmed that both people have finished WOULD BE either foolish or deliberately sneaky (in which case she probably either has the idol or already worked with someone else to get it), and I WILL get to the bottom of this. I just need to stop being so obvious about it ![:P](http://images.proboards.com/new/tongue.png)

I'm tracking the lies told to me (definitely at least mostly tongue in cheek ![:P](http://images.proboards.com/new/tongue.png) ) and now it seems like diggle just told me a bold faced one. I need to confirm with lily whether she told him about the hidden board but I do feel like it's more likely that the lily -> diggle -> moody flow of information is what actually happened as there are too many points that I know to be true in it

You know, I know I didn't technically start this rumour mill but I clearly have no problems stirring the pot even more ![:lol](https://i.imgur.com/X4ixXao.gif) like I know telling diggle before asking lily was probably a bit rash, but sometimes I can't help myself ![:lol](https://i.imgur.com/X4ixXao.gif)

So the strategy I chose with lily is trying to tie myself to her as we did find about the idol together (assuming she didn't already know before ![:P](http://images.proboards.com/new/tongue.png) ) so hopefully she appreciates my honesty and the fact that the reason I "can't tell others everything" is because it could lead to them finding out that we had kept things from them and that it would implicate both of us, so she should keep it quiet as well. I always work best in partnerships so I hope she could be it for me this time I mean I still don't fully trust her but strategically she seems best aligned with my own thinking so having full trust isn't required as long as I can trust that we have a common goal to work towards.

Mlle Delacour ![:<3](http://i.imgur.com/L3NpwEv.gif) It seems I've got a little apologizing to do here. To be completely honest with you, what Mr. Moody said is true. Lily completely surprised me with that link at 3pm May 5. I didn't expect to receieve it at all - especially not from her. I barely completed the task only to find out it had already been gone. I expected Lily to have already completed it herself, so at least she should've been the first to complete it, so I should've been the second, but oh no. That meant that either Lily wasn't telling the truth, or at least two others from our side wasn't telling the truth. It was then I realized there was no use on forwarding the link any further. However, I did to Mr. Moody 11 hours later at 2am May 6 - only to further prove my trust - I also wanted to send it to you, but then again I didn't see the point. Also the delay (11 hours later) had no specific reason, other than that I was completely busy with muggle duties. So If he sent you the link in the meantime between May 5, 3pm and May 6, 2am, he must've gotten it sooner by someone else. (also the time stamps are displayed in my timezone I tried to convert them to the board's timezone which is a bit tricky) also that was a lie from my side - to keep up my story of not getting the link by anyone else. I didn't want to throw Lily under the bus or abuse her trust she obviously put in me there, because I didn't know who she had sent the link to. I hope you can understand my intentions. Again, I'm sorry for the act, but since the idol was already gone, I thought it wouldn't make a huge difference. Obviously, this will stay between us, Ms. Delacour! You can make of it, whatever you feel fit. However, I don't think Mr. Moody has the idol - if he transferred the link to you before I sent him the link, it could look like this, but I don't see why he should lie to us. And I certainly don't have it. I know everyone would say that at this point, but I guess you just have to trust an old man on that (although it's even harder now that you know I lied to you before). (and sorry for the novel...) I hope we can grow from this. I wish you a relaxing weekend, Ms. Delacour ![:<3](http://i.imgur.com/L3NpwEv.gif) I'm dying ![(rofl)](//storage2.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/rofl.png) The inclusion of time stamps and everything ![:<3](http://i.imgur.com/L3NpwEv.gif) If he's using board time then Moody would have sent it to me after Diggle sent it to him so it all checks out. The only thing that doesn't is where. is. the. idol ![:smh](//storage2.proboards.com/7252598/images/qNnigqDBRwmLStksufWc.gif)

Glad you're having fun with the messiness of it all ![:P](http://images.proboards.com/new/tongue.png) Do you think the whole affair is shifting how others see you, just as much as it's affected your thinking about each of them?

Of course I have my doubts, and if I'm perfectly honest Moody seems rather sketchy whereas things that lily and diggle are telling me make sense and I at least want to believe them. Lily being so suspicious of Diggle isn't helping though and I know I should have put more effort into mending those relationships, not stoking mistrust in them, even if accidental. Also HK's letter to me confirmed a lot of things that I kinda already knew and I know I should tell someone (probably Lily and Oliver) about it sooner rather but that will have to wait until morning when I hopefully have a clearer head.

I wonder if Oliver's accent is as thick with everyone as it is with me or if he's just paying me back for being borderline incomprehensible 😂
