[closed] - and maybe you'll be there

[byrightsinhell]

Who: Lucius Malfoy and Sebastian LeMat

What: Catching up and sorting out

Where: Queequeg's

When: Friday Veerdi, early afternoon

Notes: too many notes?

Warnings: none anticipated

Lucius has kept a low profile, for his first few days in Baedal. Most of his connections have been reconnections - people he met in Bête Noire, and Rodolphus. He tries not to think too deeply about Rodolphus, with only the ghost of a scar where his Mark should be, and only a flicker of the man whom Lucius had considered a friend left behind his gaze. That was before one of the two of them had gone to Azkaban. It was sobering in more than one way, and he hadn't sorted it out yet.

Of course, thinking about that was also better than thinking about how brief his reunion with Narcissa had been, and wondering if he should expect her to follow him here, too. He wanted her home, in truth. Wanting her with him was his own weakness. He felt less guilty, if more conflicted, about being glad of Sebastian's company.

He arrives when and where they'd agreed, promptly. He's split the difference in clothing, with what he was given for currency; he bought muggle clothes, but finer ones than he'd been using as a disguise, and has enchanted them to be as impeccably tailored as his robes had been. He would give at least some effort to trying to blend in, for the time being. He sees no reason not to resume the plan of appearing to be a model citizen as he attempts to orient himself.

He can break rules, if necessary, once he understands them.

With five minutes to spare, Sebastian arrives at Queequeg's and looks around to see if he can spot Malfoy. He's wearing mostly muggle clothes; neat and cut in the common Baedal-style, making him look rather like he belongs in the city and has been there for some time. Also, Lucius might notice that he holds himself differently, the changes he'd started to see happen when they were trapped in London have continued and Sebastian is more confident, self-assure, and he's put aside his cane.

"Hullo," he says, winding his way through the tables and approaching Malfoy.
