Regulation and Control

( Owl to Fleur )

Morag glanced around as she waited. She and Fleur had rescheduled their interview, which had worked out rather well as Inez had had the previous Monday off and they'd had lunch. Thankfully, Morag had not seen anyone she knew. Things were working surprisingly well so far, as far as her personal life went. But now it was time to focus on her work.

It was probably going to be interesting, at the very least. She'd never actually talked to a Veela. She'd seen the Delacour woman when Hogwarts hosted the Tri-Wizard Tournament, certainly, but she hadn't been interested in Veela then. And she certainly hadn't expected to study Love, of all things. But here she was, ready to see what - if anything - she could discover about the nature of...well, whatever it was that made Veela so magnetic.

Who: Fleur Delacour-Weasley
What: Dealing with her Veela needs

( warded owl to Seamus Finnigan )

Who: Bill Weasley and Fleur Delacour-Weasley
What: Lunch and spousal visit
When: Early Tuesday afternoon, after Fleur's visit to Mickey D's
Where: The Burrow
Status: Closed, incomplete

Fleur had Apparated into Ottery St Catchpole and walked down to the house rather than Flooing to the Burrow. There had been a time when arrival in the Burrow's fireplace would have been normal and welcome, but those years were over. Now she felt compelled to give warning of her presence before she came in. In her hand, she clutched a bag that came from McDonald's in London, although the food in it had been bought elsewhere: a very rare pair of hamburgers with the correct condiments. Fleur still remembered what Bill liked, although sometimes she'd been known to miss the nuances of his Healer's diet plans.

She made her way up to the back door of the Burrow and knocked to let Bill know she was there.

Who: Fleur Delacour-Weasley and Lavender Brown
What: Randomosity
When: Tuesday afternoon, early, before Fleur's visit to the Burrow
Where: A McDonald's in London
Warnings: Offensive to vegetarians (sorry, Ben!)
Status: Closed, incomplete.

Following her exchange with Bill on the journals, Fleur had decided that on top of the meal she was actually purchasing for Bill to eat, she had to buy something at a McDonald's so she could get a sack to put the real sandwich in. It would serve him right, to think he was going to eat some nasty, overcooked, oversalted, fried meat patty for long enough to open the bag.

Fleur scanned the menu that hung over the heads of the counter staff, trying to figure out what she could buy that wouldn't make her ill but would also provide a sack of the appropriate size. She was aware that she was being watched; she was Veela and that was her life, men and women alike eyeing her out of the corner of their eyes, hesitant, hopeful, attracted, hateful. A Muggle brushed against her and she turned, ready to say something, but it was only another woman slipping by--the shop was crowded at lunchtime--and not someone trying to touch her.

Aware she looked a bit fierce, Fleur said, "I'm sorry, you startled me."
