Bryony nodded. It was something she tried to remember, that she didn't need to be brilliant at everything. "I think it's harder to become known if you don't do portraits," she said by way of explanation. "People don't really commission landscapes. It's more that they see something and like it so they buy it. But work by an unknown artist isn't going to be seen anywhere, and if it is it's going to be less valuable. I'm not really at that stage yet, but one day I hope to be." She was aware she was talking a lot, but she felt as if Genie might actually be interested - and there seemed to be some holdup with the quiz in any case. Her expression turned more serious as Genie explained. "Oh, of course not," she said. "Some of Dean's work relates to the war, but he doesn't really talk about it unless someone asks." Which, of course, Bryony had never done.

"I should finish this first," Bryony said, gesturing to the small glass of wine. "I really have to get used to it. My sister's getting married soon." And there would be champagne for the toasts, and champagne was even worse than wine, as far as Bryony was concerned.

Bryony gave a resigned sort of smile. "It's that way with a lot of people. Dean and Braith are both great artists, but neither of them like potions much." It was why Bryony often made up their potions herself. "I'm not fantastic at potions, but I was good enough. Especially -" She paused, pursed her lips. "Especially when I wasn't working with Professor Snape."
