Private Message to Lucius and Draco

[alt_narcissa]

Lucius, please make my excuses to Our Lord. I shall join you when you return to New London but something's come up here and I've got to stay.

Draco, Mother's sorry to miss seeing you but you'll be home at Easter holidays and we may spend time just the two of us, if you like.

'Something's come up?' What in the world could have 'come up' more important than attending Our Lord?

[alt_narcissa]

Diana's very worried about Maghnus fighting in the arena this evening. Ursula and I are seeing to her so she doesn't disgrace the games by appearing at all unpresentable.

[alt_lucius]

Worried?

There's nothing at all to worry about. It's not as if he'll be duelling anyone with any lethal force. It's simply a show of prowess.

Tell Diana to stop whinging and come along.

[alt_narcissa]

Yes, because simply telling a woman to stop crying always works, Husband.

I shall be along if I can manage it. Otherwise I shall see you later in the arena and I shall apologise to Our Lord in person, if that will please you.
