Re: Rita + Kingsley
Kingsley headed back in after his talk with Dorcas, thinking that things would have been a hell of a lot simpler if they'd just gone home together. It wasn't complicated with Dorcas, at least not in the same way it was with Rita, but he just couldn't do it. He'd caught a glimpse of Rita, and he just hadn't been able to do it.
Instead, he'd spent the last little while touring the museum, something he hadn't had the time or interest in. Plus, he'd seen Dorcas head over to Rita, and he wanted to be far away from that as he could be. Cowardly? Maybe, but mostly it was smart. The two women were friendly, but it was still weird to see them together.
So, he'd toured the museum. He was a little disappointed in some areas, namely how often Dark Magic came up in various exhibits, but the natural history wing had been interesting enough. However, he'd never been a history buff, and before long he was back out in the main room, and walked almost straight into Rita.
"Hi," he said, wishing he had a glass to keep his hands occupied. "You should be careful. With Lucius Malofy."
