Where: The bar
When: Sunday afternoon
Status/Rating: Incomplete, low
Tom really didn't care in the slightest when the pub was repaired. He had no intention of doing the work himself; at no point had anyone dictated that it was his responsibility - and, even if it was, he didn't work with Muggle tools. It was paltry work that he refused to partake in. Everyone else seemed to care so much about the pub, so he was quite certain that, at some point, someone would come and take care of it.
He had to admit to being intrigued when Bellatrix had offered her nephew's services. He wasn't a Black, but a Malfoy, which was a prestigious family as well. She hadn't mentioned the boy during their initial meeting, and he could only wonder if that was because he had only arrived recently or if there was another reason altogether.
He would wait for himself to see. He knew, regardless, that there was a certain strength that was growing to the island. There were those that were becoming tired of the Gryffindor camaraderie that surrounded the place, which was evident in the note that had been sent to all Slytherins. It was just a matter of keeping his hand on the pulse of the island, of watching developments. He knew no one here by experience, so he needed to observe instead. He wanted to see who would come out as worthy and trustworthy.
It was, more or less, what he intended to do with Bellatrix's nephew this afternoon. Let him fix the pub, but Tom wanted to see where his loyalties and strengths lay.
