Private Message to Raz and Professor Sinistra

[alt_narcissa]

Boldly done.

And nicely timed, as well, children. Now everyone will be in such a tizzy about you two that no one will pay much attention to Miss Clearwater.

Which seems, on the whole, to be a blessing.

Wasn't planned, actually. But ought to put an end to the ongoing speculation, leastways.

[alt_narcissa]

Well, prepare for the cover of at least three gossip rags.

And now you ought to bring us some punch, dear, so that your Astronomer and I can talk.

[alt_rabastan]

As madam wishes...

[alt_sinistra]

Thank you.

It's rather a relief to confirm, in some ways.

Also, under the circumstances - please do call me Aurora if you'd like.

(Goodness: I knew Miss Clearwater was nervous, but this is rather long.)

[alt_rabastan]

Are our dancing duties over, I wonder, now that the Weird Sisters are starting up?

I could do with pudding.

[alt_sinistra]

All the formalities, yes. I do think we can relax a little more.

(Though I understand we do need to keep an eye out for students taking more liberties than perhaps they might with one another.)

Your dancing was everything you promised, and then some, you know. I had a wonderful time.

[alt_rabastan]

That's these boots, then- charmed to help disguise the gimpy leg a bit. No good for day to day use, or else the actual limp itself gets worse.

But yes, Mother always did love seeing her boys off to dancing lessons, much to Father's displeasure.

Glad you're enjoying yourself, love. You deserve it.

[alt_sinistra]

Glad of that, on the whole, having seen what happens with boys who don't get lessons. (My toes appreciate, as well, I'm sure...)

And I am enjoying myself, now I'm relieved that everything's gone smoothly.

[alt_narcissa]

Yes, I think we may safely leave the children to the vigourous dancing. While we may enjoy it, they will surely not appreciate our participation.

Come to think of it, where's Hydra gone off to?

[alt_rabastan]

Don't know. Loo? Girls keep running to and from to make sure their hair charms haven't fizzled.

[alt_narcissa]

And speaking of finishing the dancing, you're taking care of yourself, I trust?

Re: Private Message to Raz

[alt_rabastan]

Why? Do I look un-taken care of?

Re: Private Message to Raz

[alt_narcissa]

No, sweetheart. You look like a man so well-kept that he is apt to forget himself entirely.

She's delightful. I've always thought so.

Re: Private Message to Raz

[alt_rabastan]

I'll just assume that's a good thing, then.

I'm glad to hear you say as much- your opinion does matter to me, and I know it does to her, too.
