Re: Dylan and Lenora
"How vary scandalous! I'm sure you have enough relatives rolling in their graves. I should get a bit more upset since you seem so proud of being a Gryffindor, but anything that fucks with traditions is something I like," she said, belatedly thinking that 'fuck' was not a term polite Slytherin women used, but the, she was a player not a society woman. "I like impossibilities, too." She looked him over with a smile. "I might even like the person causing them if he's not too attached to the girlfriend."
Lenora snorted. "Since when earning it means anything in politics? You know what anywhere else, he'd have no chance in hell to get so high up in the government. It's just that the wizarding world is less than rational when it comes to the Potters, whether they have earned it or not."
She studied him even more carefully now. "That's hardly what people who come from long lines of Slytherins worry about." The punching comment had her stiffen for a moment. "And your mother had boyfriends, while your father said nothing?" This was when she wished that she paid more attention to these purebloods and their sordid affairs, but she still couldn't give a fuck past the information needed at the moment.
"We do have something in common, then. I didn't know my father was a wizard either, or me for that matter, and when I got my letter, my mum had no father to turn to." She was very proud of her mother. "She learnt what she could and put me through Hogwarts and getting out of the council estate, bit violent there, yeah? Mum didn't like some of my mates there, so she was pleased, told everyone I had gotten a scholarship to a posh public school. Everyone was right envious."
