Zoetropes In The Snow (Open)

[Antigone Lestrange]

The key to good eavesdropping is not getting caught

As improper as thinking it might be - she couldn't help but feel a little twinge of glee that she had found him alone. She knew she ought not to be thinking such things at all but she couldn't help herself. It was better than saying it, she supposed. And with that, she intended not to say a word on the matter. She wouldn't be categorized with those hussies that had been printed in the Prophet about!

She barely noticed what he said, concentrating far too much on the thoughts swirling around in her own mind, though she just managed to catch the tail end until he expressed gratefulness for her arrival. She hoped the slightly intensified look in her eyes was not too obvious but she couldn't quite help herself. She thought him the most perfect boy in all of the fifth year!

"Not wise at all!" she conceded though in a tone of complete enthusiasm as if her true meaning were something different altogether. Which it was. As selfish as it might be to encourage him to take a risk in poor weather, she was loathe to pass up the opportunity to watch him fly, even if the weather would make it difficult to see. "It would be very brave of you." She fixed her pale eyes on him, a gleam of excitement in them.
