Alice had a huge, gigantic, headache.

When they'd received James' patronus, Alice had happened to be looking out of the window of Neville's nursery (Neville, Neville, this Nigel thing needed to stop right now). Her eyes had locked onto the dark clouds, and she thought, 'Oh, how peculiar.'

Because honestly, when did a bright and sunny day turn into one terrorized by a tornado? Frank came loudly bursting into the room a moment later and Neville was swept up before they quickly apparated to the Order house. Alice wasn't sure if Frank had even said anything, but she'd known, and they landed in the Order house. She was glad to see that they weren't the first; Molly Weasley and her brood were in the living room. Alice nodded at her, rolling up her sleeves and motioning for Frank to give Neville to Molly (who had automatically rushed over to take the baby from her husband).

"Ready?" she asked, flipping out her wand. Merlin, it had been a long time since she'd seen any action.

Had he just--- had that please just worked? Frank only allowed himself a few openly baffled seconds in front of Alice, genuinely surprised that she had given into his wishes so easily. Obviously, they had never been Lily and James when it came to things like this but... he had been expecting more of a fight from her. It had been months since she'd gone on the field, it was only natural for her to want to go back now that she wasn't carrying around a baby... but if anything happened to her! At this point, Frank was extremely aware that Neville would need her much more than he needed him, making it all more important for Alice to stay where she was.

It was morbid, and he tried not to focus on the fact, but it was the truth. As much as he loved Neville, it was obvious that their previous lifestyle would have to change drastically to keep the family, well--- alive.

"Thank you," Frank stated in a much muter tone, glancing briefly at Neville before looking to Alice. He felt the deepest feeling as they drew close to just screw everything and stay there with them, but--- he couldn't. People needed help and--- he couldn't, it wouldn't be right, but-- oh, what he wouldn't give to suddenly stay here.

"I'm coming back," he responded after letting a slight frown break through on his face. Before he left, Frank gently patted Neville on the top of the head, and leaned into Alice for a brief kiss. Wand ready, he stepped away from them to join whatever chaos had broken lose at Diagon, despite how he felt anything but a focused Auror.
