Is this something you'd like to have recorded for when the time comes, James?

In the Ministry, I mean. People can take note of things like that.

Merlin, and I didn't think anyone was going to be able to be any more morbid than I've been lately.

I run through at least four medical autopsies a day and I keep my father's skull on my desk, James.

Some things just become easier to spot after my sort of job.

Too true.

I think making anything official would force me to lose the little hope I do have in making it out of this war alive.

I understand.

Feeling prolific, Potter?

Always, Shacklebolt.
