Private Message to Padma Patil
Aug. 31st, 2013 09:40 amI should have invited you for last night, instead, but I was really very glad you came Thursday when the Mulcibers were here.
Honestly. She couldn't have waited until after school starts? I was just a pretext there, you know: introducing me to those who are shaping our realm as I grow closer to my entry into society is cover for her real purpose. She knows things are changing and she wants to resecure her place.
I apologise if she made you uncomfortable. She is who she is with wizards 'worth notice'. Your asking that made me a bit more pointedly attentive to it last night, and it was... notable. She was holding court for Antonin Nikolaevich and Auror Crouch, and with the two of them being the way they are with each other, it puts her 'interest' in a rather different light. I don't find Mother amusing very often, but last evening with Antonin Nikolaevich and Amara Mitiku discussing the rituals of their ancestors in the holy lands of Nile and Sun, I could see her thinking how very much they have in common... Well.
If it weren't for Mr Cooper...
If it weren't for Mr Cooper,Amara Mother might find herself sadly mistaken about interesting Professor Dolohov.
As for the flying, I'm not as sad as you suppose to have missed the CCF's further adventures on brooms. I'm glad it was Finnigan and not me. Though, cheers to Auror Braithewaite for stamping out dissidence and perversion in the realm. I'm certain the combined forces of MLE are feeling well pleased today.
I'm free this afternoon. I made my packing list the first day back and won't need to do anything further except board the train on time. What do you have in mind? Boutiquing? A pleasant tea? If you haven't had your fill of Mother, you could come again tonight. It will be the Baddocks and Spinx this time, and Fintan O'Hearne, the poet, and his partner, Donal Somethingorother, who plays instruments of some kind. All very Gaelic O'Toodle, I'm thinking. But pleasant, of course, because Mother has standards.
