Private Message to Auror Trainee Sandoval and Rodolphus Lestrange

[alt_crouch_jr]

S. Received report on your Occlumency assessment. Lamentable. Sixty-third percentile? You weren't menstruating, were you? Or ill?

Blast.

Rod. Need something to amplify the protection of standard-issue shielding kit. Have you got anything--Dark or otherwise--that would allow her to withstand a powerful Legilimens? She'll be under polyjuice if that influences your calculations.

S. Understand that if there's no remedy, I'll have to change your deployment. Wait for instructions. Will need to retest you with both available pseuds. No shortcuts. No alternatives.

I have a few options that might suit. Something with a dispersive confundus charm should weaken the focus of the legilimens. There are other artefacts that tamp down the rush of emotions that hinder occlumency, though they also have the downside of making one rather less quick on the uptake.

I could advise better if I knew how powerful the legilimens is, and if any interrogative techniques are involved - and, if so, to what extent.

If she's to be allowed an active role here, she'll have to be proof against Procyon. Extremely accomplished. A natural legilimens, it seems, but has honed the ability.

Interaction would be incidental (not interrogation): Procyon does not give himself away even within Dogstar, but I feel certain I've been probed more than once myself, by one trained to look for signs alternatively of commitment or deceit.

Sandoval needs to persuade that she is the pseud she impersonates and that s/he is duly committed to Dogstar's purposes.

May be impossible.
