The meeting began around the dining room table, and Hermione found herself struggling to pay attention. She didn’t really need to be there. Remus, Kingsley, Harry – and Professor McGonagall or any other senior Order member present – made all the decisions. Anyone else could attend a meeting and put in their two knuts, so to speak, but in the end the final decisions were not up to the rest of the Order. It was the best way to operate; if they had all had an equal say, then no decision would ever have gotten made.
