Pippin adds:
She's not a witch, nor a squib. Petunia is ex-Phoenix.
We know you don't have to be magical to be in the Order, because
there's Mrs. Figg. Petunia reads the newspapers and the magazines,
listens to the news, always has her eye on what the neighbors
are up to. She'd make a very good spy. And it would be helpful
to Dumbledore to have a Muggle's view of things-- he can
follow the Muggle media, but not with a Muggle's eyes. He
doesn't have the intuitive knowledge to separate tabloid stuff
about water-skiing budgies from what might be an actual
report of wizard interference, but Petunia does.
Kenny responds:
I really like this idea. It isn't too far fetched for me at all. It
does make sense, and I am still a firm believer that Lily and Petunia
simply weren't so at odds as what seems to be the collective consensus.
