Astoria was sitting at the vanity in her room, looking at her reflection in the mirror. Things were getting stranger by the day, for many reasons, and not all of them bad. She'd met the Undersecretary the other day, who had seemed interested in helping her to further her career, she'd learned Samara was returning to the department, which promised to be helpful to her, she'd met a bloke who made her question so many things in her life, but in a good way, and now her mother had invited Zacharias Smith to tea this afternoon, quite out of the blue. She was pretty sure her mother was up to no good.
Still, custom required her to put on her game face and put her well learned Pureblood manners to use when he came around. She was just setting the headband in her hair when the buttler announced their company had arrived and she was forced to decend from her room into whatever plans her mother was setting in motion. She closed the door to her bedroom behind her and went downstairs where her mother was already inviting him into the sitting room and having a servant bring in tea and a few things to eat.
"Ah, Astoria, there you are dear," Arabesque said, motioning for her to enter the room and take a seat near where Zarcharias was sitting.
Astoria walked over and offered him an honest smile. "Hello, Zacharias, so nice of you to join us."
