"Cheers," Percy said, taking a sip of his wine after they had clinked their mugs together. It was quite nice. It went well with chips in his opinion.
"Oh dear, it's all over then," Percy muttered. He hadn't thought about muggles getting it. "Well, the thing is you see-" Percy paused and looked down at his food. This was harder than he had expected. "I've got it. It's manageable - I still work - and I cast regular barrier spells to protect other people so you don't have to worry about that."
Percy took a swallow of his wine and took a deep breath. He thought he should maybe see how Penny took that news before he told her about Ginny, George, and Nicky. At least with Nicky there was good news.
