I'm glad to hear he's directing his anger in appropriate ways. I was worried he'd be overly resentful about the secrets your family has kept from him, but he seems rather focused on joining the Order as soon as possible and being of use.
He did sit with me a bit this afternoon -- we talked about where he might think about getting work after he leaves school, and he's got a very solid idea of what would best suit his skills and be helpful to the Order. He mentioned surveying and site selection for the Ministry, which would certainly give him a great deal of access to mapping systems and building sites.
I, for one, would be very pleased to continue to work with him in the future.
He's a good, solid sort, Charlie. And he cares very deeply about the future of this country and the people in it. All of the people. And that is a commendable thing.
