Theo had just finished up the last owls with Dorny when he felt the wards shift. Pleased, he put away his papers, charmed the cabinets locked and headed down stairs. He walked for once, leaving Padma to chat a bit with Daphne before he came into the conservatory, the light rain rapping on the windows.
'Of course you can say hello to him, Liam,' he said, having heard the boy's question as he arrived. Nathaniel immediately started to wave his arms and laugh at the sound of his voice and he smiled, not only at him but at Daphne, Liam and Nigel as well.
'Hello Daphne,' he said giving her a kiss on the cheek.
