Potioncat:
There's an old building in Washington, DC that has a long row of
stone owls along the edge of the roof...to keep away pigeons, I
suppose. Only, I think it could be real owls, enchanted to look like
stone ones to Muggles...and the building is really the well disguised
Ministry of Magic of the United States building. It's near the Navy
Yard.

Potioncat:
I know that Snape is absolutely horrible to Harry over the next few
pages, but I wonder if that "look of suppressed triumph" that Harry
perceives is actually a look of "suppressed relief" that Harry is
safe. Or of suppressed triumph that he knew where to find him and he
was safe.
Do we have canon as to whether Severus know that James had an IC?

Potioncat:
I don't know why, but I always thought this MacNair was Riddle's
comtemporary---but it's more likely he is from Malfoy's generation.
Yes, I'd say he found an "honest job" doing what he liked best.
