Temper Temper date: 6 November 1997 characters: Lucius and Narcissa Malfoy location: Malfoy Manor/ Ruggins and Pellow: Wizards Fine Furniture private/semi-private/public: Private, unless you're shopping for furniture, then drop on in summary: Voldy's had a tantrum and destroyed the sitting room. Time to buy new furniture.
Lucius surveyed the sitting room with frustration and more than a hint of disgust. He tried once again, unsuccessfully to repair the shattered sofa. Bits of stuffing flew round the room and settled into a dusty pile. It was no use, they simply would have to buy new.
His stressed mind fought to keep from reliving the scene from this morning, When Lord Voldemort had received some kind of owl communication and blown apart the sitting room in frustration. Lucius still had no idea why, the Dark Lord had flown out the front door soon after and had yet to return. Not that they were sorry about that.
"I"m sorry darling," he said, turning to a Narcissa who was even paler than usual. "There's nothing to be done but buy new." He waved to the house elves who scurried in to start the clean up. "It's abolutely beyond repair." He handed Narcissa back her wand.
