RP: MI-5, she's not Date: 13 July 2006 Characters: Pansy Parkinson, Polly Parkinson, Ella Bulstrode, Harry Potter Location: 212 Cicero, Hogsmeade Private/Public: Private Rating: PG-13 Warnings: tba Summary: Pansy is worried about Ella and has invited her over to give Millicent a break. And to fish for info.
Pansy had sent an invitation to Millicent's for Ella to come play with Polly. She had done it several times since the tea party she'd given shortly after her birthday. Millicent had said she was going to attend but hadn't shown up or sent word, and that had bothered Pansy.
The first time she invited Ella over, she'd invited Millicent, as well, but her friend had declined by saying she was too tired. Thinking perhaps that Millicent needed a break from an active six year old, she'd invited Ella several times since, each time hoping to spend some time with Millicent either before or after the visit, but Millicent was rarely around. The excuse she got most often was that she was resting.
If Pansy got that excuse much more, she was going to ask John to accompany her on her visit. He'd probably have some scruple against attending a patient that hadn't asked for the service, though. It would be just like him....
Yet again, Millicent wasn't available when she'd picked up Ella. Pansy was beginning to seriously worry about her friend, and she was a little quiet as she flew back to her house with Ella on her broom. They landed in the back garden.
'Polly will be so happy to see you!' she told Ella with a smile. 'But before you play, would you like some lemonade and biscuits?'
