Sebastian spoke to you all? Well, don't listen to him, everything he says is rubbish. He's rubbish.

He's practically a Squib, you know. Hasn't a clue what he's talking about.  

((ooc: Okay so. Important French Purebloods and such will probably know she was "attacked" by a Death Eater. And since bits of it (hey, her high-profile politician father is spending a lot of time in the hospital) would probably make the news elsewhere, if your character is smart and cares enough they can probably put it together. Or even nosy.))

They're only here because they want to talk to me. Now that he's been captured, there's no reason to keep me under watch.

You come from a notable pureblooded family; it would be odd if you weren't.

Are visitors allowed?

My father will be rid of them eventually, they're terribly distressing.

Yes, Matthew has been in and out.

[dofaye.livejournal.com]

Perhaps if you tell them as much, they'll leave.

...and how is he taking this?

[donttelldaddy.livejournal.com]

Father's come to that conclusion himself.

Better than I thought, but almost anything would be better than I thought.

[dofaye.livejournal.com]

I must admit that I'd be rather disappointed in him if he didn't accept this. It was bound to happen eventually -- you pursuing an enemy, that is.

[donttelldaddy.livejournal.com]

Thank you for your input, Jules, but don't pretend that you would understand.

[dofaye.livejournal.com]

I don't.

[donttelldaddy.livejournal.com]

I know. So don't expect him to just accept that I've been lying to him since we met so easily.

[dofaye.livejournal.com]

Is it so wrong that I'm glad to know that your lover is supportive of you?

[donttelldaddy.livejournal.com]

He shouldn't be, I failed.

[dofaye.livejournal.com]

He's a better man than I expected. Anybody can leave a loved one in difficult times; it takes strength to stay.

[donttelldaddy.livejournal.com]

You never had a reason to believe anything else.

[dofaye.livejournal.com]

Ah, but I do have my reasons.

[donttelldaddy.livejournal.com]

And they would be?

[dofaye.livejournal.com]

Which are you referring to at this point?

[donttelldaddy.livejournal.com]

Whatever reasons you think you have to consider Matthew anything less than exceptional.

[dofaye.livejournal.com]

I consider very few people to be exceptional.

[donttelldaddy.livejournal.com]

As do I. That isn't a reason.

[dofaye.livejournal.com]

It's reason enough for me, and we're on fairly good terms with each other now.

[donttelldaddy.livejournal.com]

Thank you for dodging the question, as always.

[dofaye.livejournal.com]

I answered it, thank you.

[donttelldaddy.livejournal.com]

No, you didn't. Though, if you're clearly wrong, your reasoning for being so hardly matters.

[dofaye.livejournal.com]

All right, then: I don't find Matthew particularly exceptional because I have no reason to. Is that a better answer?

[donttelldaddy.livejournal.com]

It's an incorrect one.
