... would once more, especially considering the new circumstances revolving around her. "First off, Remus would not be able to betray Lily and James specifically because they're not currently under the Fidelius Charm. Secondly, I know he hasn't been in contact with any Death Eaters to give them information anyways." "How?" "Because I just spent the last three months being tortured by Bellatrix asking for answers that, if Remus were handing information to the other side, he would have already given them. I can be certain that wherever Remus is, it isn't passing information on the Order. Plus, he was with me for over a year and couldn't possibly know enough about the Order to inform on us anyways. And if he were going to betray Lily and James he would've done that by now too." Lily sighed with relief. "You've got a point," Sirius admitted. "You trust him still, even after what he's done to you?" "A relationship alone is difficult. A relationship anchored down by horcrux hunting is impossible. I, of anyone, can attest to that. Twice.

We can talk about it," she assured them. "I know you've all been tiptoeing around me but you don't need to. I just talked about it a second ago." "Are you sure?" "Of course," she answered and turned to Sirius. "You want to know what I did to Bellatrix?" He nodded and everyone in the room seemed a bit more eager. Lily leaned forward and James sat at the very edge of his seat. Ginny smiled at her own ingenuity, even at a time when she was so destitute and low. Yes, it was dark what she'd done, but all things considered she wasn't much grieved by it. War was war after all. "Bellatrix adores her knife. She's very fond of carving words into her prisoners flesh so I thought that I would return the favor. Right on her chest." Lily blanched and she easily waved it off. "Tell me you're not compassionate for her? But she was unconscious at the time, I'm not that gruesome. But I was also quite deranged at the time." "What did you write?" James begged to know.
