Contrary to popular belief, Johnathan was not a muggle. Not in the least. He was, in fact, an Auror. Not a particularly good one, and in fact his first and only assignment was none other than the un-coveted work of an Azkaban guard – a post at which he served for thirty years. His retirement, however, was some five years ago. In fact, Johnathan was none other than the "flustered ministry official" who dropped off Marvin Strange all those years ago. Retired now, he was quite done with official Auror work. And currently, he was very, very concerned about what was going on in the sitting room. Marvin Strange – or simply that boy – as he preferred to call him in his own head, was nothing but trouble. Even worse, the boy was probably being invited to Hogwarts, and this concerned Johnathan to no end. After all, despite Mrs. Douffry's belief that the boy was a lovely child, Johnathan was certain that the single incident of accidental magic he had witnessed was not at all accidental.
The fact remained, however, that once the boy went to Diagon Alley, there was no telling what he might discover about himself, Johnathan, or anything else that occurred on his birthday 11 years prior. Johnathan made up his mind. There was no way he would allow the boy into the wizarding world. He would just have to be disposed of. Memory charms were never his strong suit, despite charms having been his best subject in school, but he had confidence that he could make Mrs. Douffry and the other children forget Marvin Strange, at least well enough to avoid any issues with muggles. The only question remaining was if he could bring himself to hurt a child. There, Johnathan was having some trouble. Of course, as an Auror, he was quite adept at incapacitating his targets. But life as an Azkaban guard did not give him much field training. But, given that the boy had no sure idea that he was magical until today, Johnathan was quite certain he could handle it. He could always somehow get the boy out the window, and make it look like he fell. Yes, Johnathan was confident that plan was best. It didn't even rely on his own wand having to cast anything more than a stunning and levitation spell. And by the time the body was found, there would be no record of him even being at the orphanage, let alone that he was a wizard. He'd set up silencing charms beforehand, and then make his move at night. With any luck, all the other children and Mrs. Douffry would already be asleep during the entire thing. He'd modify their memories, and be on his way.
