I am quite ill today.
The Malfoys' party was lovely, however. Lucius was kind enough to put me up for the night.
I cannot remember the last time I had eggnog with real nutmeg; and in the morning the elves did miraculous things with omelets, or so I am told; I was not in a state to enjoy it, being, as I have said, ill.

Although I did need a nip, or two, or three to fortify me both before and after the Lord Protector's visit.
I will never, never, never get used to that feeling that I am being probed and questioned and poked at, and to knowing that it's sheerest animal instinct that makes him unable to break through.

Pleasant Death Eater seems like a contradiction in terms, but I wish I could say I didn't know what you mean.
