Re: As the Fiancees Arrive - Cho
"Enjoyed my time amongst intimidated, overwhelmed children and Bulstrode? Not hardly," she said in a dry undertone pitched for his ears only. She'd held herself apart so carefully that she'd not even spoken with Marietta. There was nothing she could have done to ease the fears of the youngest witches and since writing to Auror Moody, she'd become all too aware that she might be the only eyes the Order had within this particular group. That knowledge gave her another weapon to use against the depression that was trying to overwhelm her utterly.
She slipped her hand into the crook of his arm, tired of standing or sitting in one place. He provided a good excuse to move. "Walk with me, Marcus," she asked softly. She did not fear for her pooling robes for they were charmed to both repel dirt and to slide away from feet that might trample on them.
