Private Message to Lucius and Narcissa Malfoy

[alt_crouch_jr]

I was tied up this morning or I'd have seen this sooner. Have either of you seen the newest edition of Londinarium? Specifically the piece on the Campbell wedding.

Lucius: can you verify that the information about Parkinson was authorised by someone? If not, I'll be happy to bring Bobolis in for a conversation about his sources and his presentation of the facts. More if you think it necessary.

Really, I'm not at all sure what you're so fussed about, Barty. Perhaps it's a bit heavy on the rhetoric but there's nothing objectionable. Rosa making a fool of herself; that's neither new nor our concern.

Unless I missed something that has you particularly upset?

Private Message to Narcissa Malfoy

It seemed to me that the account of Parkinson's death not only put Lucius in an awkward light, it hinted that Parkinson had been both unwise in allowing himself to be lured into a trap and not entirely effectual in his fight, however unfair the odds. Meanwhile, certain others appeared to far better advantage (which makes a good deal more sense now we've gathered who provided Bobolis with his information).

I agree that it is a loyal account, on the whole, but you'll forgive my thinking that Lucius might take particular exception to some aspects of it.

As it is, he's graciously agreed to attend to the matter privately and not subject Mr Bobolis to official scrutiny. This time.

I think you'll find that if Lucius objects, he is perfectly capable of taking it up with Ganymede himself. And of making the danger of crossing him well understood.

And if my husband finds himself in an awkward position with regard to Tony --

Well. I'm sure he's grateful you pointed it out to him.

If he chooses to be annoyed instead, of course, that's his prerogative.

You're kinder than I, dear. I would say it's his own lookout. But then, it's an old disagreement of ours, nothing to trouble you.
