Yesterday he had attempted to be a polite human being and when they backfired, he decided that it was not worth the work. And really, when dealing with Marietta it was best to simply give as good as he got. That was the basis of their relationship and up until this point he would call it a good one. Now, it was just all sorts of complicated and Zacharias couldn't help but feel she was intentionally making this worse for him.

A part of him had really wanted to make her go through with the pregnancy, give birth, and then eat the child or something equally twisted and horrendous. The problem with that line of thought was that in carrying into the hypothetical, he couldn't help but wonder what it would feel like to have something that would call him father. It was the sort of thought that made him sick, but then there was how pissed off Elaina would be to have some not-quite pureblood Smith running around. Really, he could create some sort of little monster who would descend upon the wizarding world in a few years time and there was something appealing about that. Appealing in a way that also made him a bit sick.

Honestly, he wasn't sure what he was doing or even going to say as he threw a handful of floo powder into the fireplace to take him to Marietta's flat. Having to knock at her door was simply not an option because she wouldn't let him in. This way he would already be inside and she would have to look at him when they talked. And just to be sure that this conversation started off on the wrong foot, he called out, "Honey, I'm home," as he stepped out of her fireplace.
