Ronnie hadn't been able to keep the smirk off her face when she saw Theodore Nott. So that was Parvati's mark. She would have to tease her friend a bit later about being unable to keep his identity from her. At least Parvati still didn't know who Ronnie's 'Book Person' was.
Once the meeting started, Ronnie didn't have to work hard to put a bored expression on her face. She hadn't been in the DA, as she much preferred working on her own. She hadn't fought in the battle, because she was too busy being home and burying her brother after being on the run. Everything they were talking about didn't concern her, and she wouldn't be here if Parvati hadn't invited her. Still, she was listening. Just because she didn't look like it didn't mean that she wasn't filing away everything in her memory.
Ronnie watched Parvati out of the corner of her eye, a bit proud of her friend as she spoke. She picked at a hole in her black jeans idly, her expression not giving away any opinion she might have. When Parvati looked over at her, Ronnie raised an eyebrow. "Isn't this a little unnecessary? You're all talking as though this will turn into another war. You don't know what these Traditionalists want, besides preserving a culture that they grew up with," she said quietly. Her voice was low enough that only those around her could hear, and she knew that Parvati would recognize that she was mainly playing devil's advocate. Ronnie did feel that they were getting a little ahead of themselves, not to mention her thoughts on anything else that was said.
