Rudolphus went to say something, but he was cut off as someone pinched the back of his arm. Hard. Keeping a yelp in the back of his throat, he turned angry eyes on the one girl that would even dare to do that to him! He was met with a stare that clearly wasn't someone to be messed with at the moment. It was enough to make him drop whatever he was about to say or do, and grumble something.
Bellatrix's hand fell from his arm after the Slytherin, and troupe, headed deeper into the dungeons to their house, leaving her and Alice alone for the time being. She couldn't say she wasn't happy to see the girl, but she couldn't say she was too thrilled about it either. Deciding to offer her a soft smile, she waited for Alice to say something. It wasn't everyday she got a visit from her, after all.
