If there was any truth to the myth of St. Nicholas, the man most certainly had to be magical in order to organise something as chaotic as this Christmas business. And he was very likely a true saint just on principle of not hexing anyone in a fit of madness.
Julian had easier missions with the Dark Lord.
But at least these Christian holidays weren't without their sense of ironic timing. Julian had just stepped out of the shop where he bought enamels for his metalworking, when he caught sight of a familiar figure adorned proudly in traditional clothing and shrouded in a veil of the palest, finest hair he had ever seen.
Lucius Malfoy.
It was like seeing the ghost of Jacob Marley. Bah fucking humbug indeed.

Thinking of his son just reminded Lucius of his mission. He needed to find out what had happened, who had turned out to be on whose side, and that meant getting to Ollivander's as soon as possible. He quickened his pace, moving to step around a figure on the sidewalk who was standing completely still. Lucius didn't look in case it turned out he knew the person.
