<Anyway, Erin, do you want to adhere to FILK LOAD ?"

"What does it mean ?" asks Erin.

"Freed from Illness Lupin Kan Lead Order After Dumbledore's Demise !" 
answers an
obviously overjoyed Olivier, "it gathers those who trust Lupin enough 
to
envision him leading the Order should anything happen to Dumbledore. 
Yeah, I know, I know
there is some misspelling and it should really be FFILK LOADD, but 
you get the idea.
After all, I should speak like Fleur.">

Jenny watched Olivier's interaction with interest.  Always a staunch 
supporter of Lupin, she found the breaking free theme quite 
intriguing.

Before Erin could answer Olivier, Jenny posed a question of her own.

"Do you truly feel that the only way for Lupin to become free is to 
be cured of his illness?  That is the last thing I think could ever 
happen because it would cancel out one of JKR's biggest moral themes 
throughout the books."

At Olivier's suprised look to this statement, Jenny explained, " 
think about it, JKR finds every way she can to focus on intolerance - 
pureblood vs. "mudbloods" (racism) and fear of infection by 
werewolves (AIDS/other infectious conditions) being two big ones - 
and you propose that Lupin's freedom is to be cured? That eliminates 
the issue, it doesn't resolve it.  More important would be for 
Lupin's condition to not be a stigma, for him to be accepted in the 
WW. For Lupin to be truly freed, he would need to receive the 
recognition he deserves as a person in regard to his accomplishments 
and have him be accepted despite his condition.

"As for Lupin leading the Order, I feel that Lupin would not find 
opposition to that in the Order anyway, it is outside, in the WW, 
that Lupin has no respect."

That said, Jenny peered around at the video screens in the control 
room they were standing in, wondering if ESE!Bill would leave her 
alone if she told him she wasn't yet convinced of his nefarious 
nature. She was starting to feel very adrift in the discussion of 
intrigue concerning Lupin and BIll.  Though she loved the both 
dearly, she still wasn't sure she wanted to examine possible 
betrayals by them.  If they ever turned out to be true, how would she 
(not to mention poor Harry!) be able to bear it??

Much safer to be on her sturdy SILK GOWNS, where she was comfortable 
that those who might be more than met the eye weren't people she 
liked anyway.
