Sirius, James, Peter, Dorcas, Remus, Lily, Marlene, Scarlet, Everest, Alice and Frank.

He was sure he would never feel that paranoia again because nothing could possibly worse than seeing his best friend, his brother soaked in a pool of his own blood, shaking tremendously in agony.
That feeling returned again, giving Potter glimpses of all affliction he felt that night. Trembling hands, freezing blood.

He could outline some of the conversation, something about a Fidelius Charm and how Dumbledore would be the Longbottoms' secret keeper.
