BACKDATED TO SOMETIME IN MID-JULY
WHO: Rodolphus and Bellatrix Lestrange
WHAT: A homecoming of sorts.
WHERE: Rodolphus and Bellatrix's home.
WHEN: Upon Rodolphus's arrival.
WHY: They're married, he's alive and she might actually love him.
Ever since Alecto and Lucius had informed Bellatrix of the death of her husband, the pattern of life had adjusted into something unfamiliar. For as long as she could remember there was at least one other person to keep her amused. As a child she had Narcissa and even Andromeda, in school it was her housemates and then Rodolphus came along. Now, now she had nothing but an empty house and a few distant collegues. Nothing quite as amusing or personal as she was used to.
Sitting in the den surrounded by dust covered volumes, Bella found herself toying idly with a glass of wine perched on the armchair she was sitting in. Every so often she would drink from the glass but then proceeded to set it back down onto the fabric. Was this what she had been reduced to, a common housewife with no husband to serve? This wouldn't do, this wouldn't do at all.
