Who: Lucius and Narcissa Malfoy
Where: the manor, then a very expensive restaurant
When: this evening
What: Escaping the manor for a bit
Lucius smoothed front of his robes and straightened his collar as he waited for his wife. He was looking forward to the evening ahead, an opportunity to escape with Narcissa. Lucius loved his home, but he was finding he did not always like it anymore. Filled to the brim with Death Eaters and sympathizers, the manor was becoming small in a way it had never been before, leaving him with the overwhelming urge to get out and go--somewhere, anywhere, where didn't matter as long as he wasn't surrounded by his dubious colleagues.
They hadn't had much time for conversation of late, Lucius considered, having been somewhat preoccupied by recent events. He had been too busy watching, noting the results of the Ministry takeover with interest and, yes, some dismay. The scope of the Dark Lord's power grew every day, and no one dared comment against it. And for all his thoughts and scheming, Lucius had yet to find a scenario in which he could save his son from being Marked.
His mind filled with regrettable decisions, a long minute passed before he became aware of someone watching him. Lucius looked up and met Narcissa's eyes, allowing himself a brief perusal of her frame before giving her a slight smile. "Are you ready to leave?"
