Harry considered his words for a moment. "It's as safe as it's going to be until Halloween at least. Quirrel will let loose a troll during the feast as a distraction. When that doesn't work, he'll wait until the Spring." Don't even get him started on his thoughts on that and basically Dumbledore hoping they'd take the adventure through the forbidden corridor. They weren't going to do it though. He refused to follow the old man's manipulations this time around.

His mouth quirks up a bit. "Perfect," he said, glad that Peter Pettigrew will be able to pay for what he'd done to him and his family. Then Sirius can get out and hopefully get the help he needed.

"That will work for us, Professor," he said, taking the marble from her and pocketing. He gave her a grateful smile. "Thank you." For believing them and assisting them.
