Well, well, well. Draco's leaving school. All of his classmates are soon to face the harsh reality of life outside school, unless, of course, something intervenes. I do hope they're ready. I'm certain Draco is, and he's a credit to our family. I have my doubts at times, but it's best to keep them to myself until I have concrete proof--which Draco has always been quite good at avoiding. I've taught him well.

Just a few more days until the students say farewell, forever, to the hallowed halls of Hogwarts and the protections held within. I hope that Draco will look back fondly at his years at school. Everything changes drastically once you leave, and you can never go back. Nor will anyone want to, I'm thinking.

I sincerely hope that you do not mean you have doubts about our son, Lucius.


purestblood @ 2004-06-20 05:39 pm UTC

I have no doubts as regards Draco, no.

Do you look back fondly still on your own school days?

(parent)
purestblood @ 2004-06-21 03:51 pm UTC

Only the ones that had you in them.

blondenarcissa @ 2004-06-21 03:53 pm UTC

Then that wasn't very many, was it, dear? You only look back fondly on the last two years or so of your schooling?

purestblood @ 2004-06-21 03:57 pm UTC

For the most part, yes. I prefer to look towards the future.

blondenarcissa @ 2004-06-21 03:58 pm UTC

As do I. I think it holds many wonderful things for us both individually and as a family.

I do believe you're right. I've missed you dreadfully, Narcissa--more than you can realize.

(parent)
blondenarcissa @ 2004-06-21 04:00 pm UTC

Is that so?

(parent)
purestblood @ 2004-06-21 04:08 pm UTC

It is.

(parent)
blondenarcissa @ 2004-06-21 04:09 pm UTC

Would you think ill of me if I told you that I'm glad you did and hoped you felt as dreadful as possible?

(parent)
purestblood @ 2004-06-21 04:15 pm UTC

I would not think ill of you in any way. I realize now how utterly selfish I was being.

(parent)
blondenarcissa @ 2004-06-21 04:17 pm UTC

How glad I am to see you admit such a thing, Lucius.

(parent)
purestblood @ 2004-06-21 04:20 pm UTC

I'd really rather discuss this in person.

(parent)
blondenarcissa @ 2004-06-21 04:39 pm UTC

You would, would you?

(parent)
purestblood @ 2004-06-21 04:40 pm UTC

I would.

I believe Kongsberg is lovely this time of day.

You are right, darling, as always. Fancy a light dinner there?

(parent)
blondenarcissa @ 2004-06-21 05:14 pm UTC

That sounds divine. I can be ready by half-eight.

(parent)
purestblood @ 2004-06-21 05:25 pm UTC

I'll see you then, my darling.

potterstinks @ 2004-06-20 09:30 pm UTC

Father, I have, of course, learnt everything from you. I do hope to make you proud of me when I take my N.E.W.T.s.


just_harry @ 2004-06-20 10:41 pm UTC

Wow, Mr Malfoy. Why didn't you just say 'I'm planning something horrible' and skip all the extra words?


purestblood @ 2004-06-20 11:14 pm UTC

A tip: as with most Malfoys, what Draco says and what Draco actually means are usually two different things. Do be careful to ascertain that you're sure which is which.

just_harry @ 2004-06-20 11:16 pm UTC

You know, somehow I noticed that all on my own, but thanks.

Any time, Harry. Any time.

Oh, I'm quite confident in Draco myself, Lucius.


blondenarcissa @ 2004-06-21 03:42 pm UTC

Thank you, Severus. Your confidence in my son means so very much.

purestblood @ 2004-06-21 03:50 pm UTC

Draco is a credit to you, my love.

(parent)
blondenarcissa @ 2004-06-21 03:53 pm UTC

And to you, Lucius.

We're a good team, aren't we?

(parent)
blondenarcissa @ 2004-06-21 03:57 pm UTC

We are, often times, yes.
