Re: Belvina/Lex
"The Cruciatus?" Belvina filed it away in her memory. It wasn't enough to know if Bellatrix had a particular liking for that curse but the fact that she hadn't used something more obscure or sophisticated was telling. "I'm sorry you had to deal with her. It seems as if it has been quite unpleasant."
"Charming," she said, her tone indicating that she thought Macnair was anything but. "Now that interests me more. I wonder what they owe. Unless they are striving to be a more prominent family though in this political climate, I wouldn't think it wise."
She mused on the point for a second, silent. "I may have to have a few words with Miss Yaxley. At least to try and ascertain that she knows some spells in case her husband isn't as gentlemanly as one would hope."
