Summary: Marlene surprises Alastor with a picnic and some work ideas.
Marlene had gone to work and had ended up staying longer than she'd planned to. When she heard about the arrest she stayed around, watching how they did things. She was writing everything down so that it would help her with that restructuring project. She actually had a pretty good idea, mostly because it was easy to think back to her own division, the one where she worked until a few days ago, before her arrival in this strange future. She could have probably given Potter the full draft at wor, but she wanted to talk to Alastor first. In fact, she had suspected that it might have been the case, and she had offered to take him to the office for an hour, but Alastor had declined since it would have been too hard to stay there and not work. Marlene understood that well.
When she got home, instead of going to her bedroom, she enlisted the help of the house elf to prepare dinner, and then set up a picnic in the garden. The blanket was under a tree so that Alastor would be able to rest against it, and the house elf cast a spell that created an invisible barrier to protect them from the cold. The moon was still big in the sky, giving them plenty of light. Finally with everything set up, she went in and changed from her Auror robe into a regular one that reached her knees and then walked into Alastor's room. "Hello, darling, did you have a good day?" she asked as she came around and kissed him gently. "Dinner is ready. We're going outside. Do you need help or can you get there by yourself?"
