"Things change, Theo," Draco said patiently. "I'm sure you made arrangements, but things are different now. It's not a theoretical dilemma, and whoever it is needs to be ready to take on uncle Rodolphus, not many people have the courage or ability to do so."
Draco smiled. "No, I didn't think you were planning on dying, and yes, we work best together, but we won't have the meeting today. I'm trying to tell you to take things at your own pace. I'm sure I can get the board to agree even if you decide not to come."
