He'd kind of forgotten about her until now. Whoops.
He leaned in so that the few next words were just shared between them in the midst of the feast, "You're not gonna go visit your mum first?" He said this tentatively because he was afraid to make his cousin uncomfortable on such a tender topic. I'm sure his aunt was doing better and all. Marigold watched Declan as she took a bite of a roll of some sort. "I just got a bunch of letters from her, actually. She's good. Got into some major league Italian prep school that she might go to next autumn." Which was good and all, but writing to her would be harder to manage next term. She would have to owl home, then her parents would have to manually mail it to Italy. Or they could figure something else out.
Marigold had just taken a sip of her juice when Dec asked about her mum, so she swallowed too quickly and started coughing. Once the coughing stopped, she nodded. "Well, mum's at some sort of retreat thing for a week, then I'll go visit her. She should be able to come home before we go to Greece." SPOILER!!: Norah Quote:

Gross," accidentally spraying the table in front of her with bits of chewed-up potato. Oops. With an apologetic smile, Norah wiped up her mess and nodded enthusiastically at Marigold's suggestion. "Cheererupper? I could TOTALLY do that." She leapt from her seat and threw her arms in the air, just in case the level of her excitement at this prospect wasn't completely clear, and attempted some badly-executed jazz hands before returning to her seat. How's THAT for cheererupping? "Oh wow Greece sounds so cool! I wish I could go." SIGH. Being 12 was so difficult. "I'm going to France, like every year, to visit my grandparents. They're muggles, though, so I guess I couldn't use magic anyway." Humph. It was still a shame, anyway. Marigold leaned a bit farther away from Norah as to avoid being hit by food, but she stayed grinning. Even with the mention of the OWL. "I'm trying to take all twelve OWLs. Go into the ministry, like m'dad." Not that she wanted to. She didn't know what she wanted to do now, but the ministry was a good of a place as any to start out, yeah? She burst out laughing at Norah's... dancing?... then returned some flaily gestures. Professional dancers, the two of them were. "France is pretty cool! I've never been." And as for the grandparents part? Marigold simply bit into some food. No comment. |
