Private message to Lucius Malfoy

[alt_selwyn]

Are you and Narcissa going to that performance at Hogwarts? I got an invitation, I rather suppose more as a courtesy than anything else, and I hadn't intended to go but I left it lying out and Arista found it. Her nanny made the mistake of reading it to her and she is now positively DYING to go.

Will it be highly inappropriate for a six-year-old, filled with shocking violence and foul language? I suppose that's too much to hope for.

It's probably fairly short, at least. Your son's in it, isn't he? And your god-daughter? Or is she helping behind the scenes?

Must you remind me? Yes, they're all in the bloody thing: Marvolo, Hydra, even Rosier's ward. Miss Parkinson elected to help backstage.

Am bringing work to avoid requiring full focus on the ... production. Even Narcissa, who as you know is more tolerant of such things, is somewhat trepidatious.

At least we shall not be entirely alone. Ari is coming, though Pandora is not. Apparently Ptolemy has been strangely eager for them both to see it, for reasons one can only speculate.
