thedressingroom[It's snowing, but only gently - enough to have the odd flake settle in Narcissa's hair and on her scarf, but not enough to obscure her vision. The wind carries most of the icy crystals away from her, anyway, swirling in barely-there flurries over the edge of the cliff and out into the nothingness and clouds beyond. It captures the edge of her cloak, causing the sturdy wool to cling momentarily, outlining her leg before whipping away to reveal leather boots and a divided skirt. Narcissa holds a broom in her left hand, a single iridescent feather tied to the handle with a scrap of ribbon.
In a moment, she's going to step from the edge.]

[He has not been given the racing broom he requested. Cue the disappointed pout.]

Date: 2012-01-09 02:20 pm (UTC)I wouldn't know, to be honest. A broom is a broom is a broom to me... L-- Lucius always used to tease me about it.

Date: 2012-01-09 02:36 pm (UTC)Well, I don't suppose it matters to anyone who doesn't fly very often. Not all brooms are equal; I wouldn't want to play Quidditch on something like this, for example. If I recall, the handling on this Cleansweep model doesn't allow for sharp enough turns, which is a pain when you're trying not to lose track of a snitch.

[A gust of wind blows a lock of hair into the corner of her mouth; she tugs it away.]

[Gosh it's chilly; Sirius never advised him to put on his coat.]

Date: 2012-01-09 02:51 pm (UTC)When I choose to fly a broom, yes. To be frank, I simply wanted the rush of the wind...

Date: 2012-01-09 03:05 pm (UTC)I've felt the same way more than a few times. Shall we, then?
no subject
Date: 2012-01-09 03:14 pm (UTC)--let's.
[No, she didn't step off. Side saddle, thank you.]
no subject
Date: 2012-01-09 03:32 pm (UTC)You won't be able to fly as fast like that, you know.
no subject
Date: 2012-01-09 03:37 pm (UTC)I'll manage--!

[No fair, you aren't allowed to speed off without him!]

Date: 2012-01-10 12:29 pm (UTC)[Oh dear, someone almost had a collision with an errant bird. Where on earth did it come from?]
no subject
Date: 2012-01-10 12:32 pm (UTC)[Very near collision with that bird, Reggie - mind!]
Never! You are one of the few constants in my life!
no subject
Date: 2012-01-10 12:43 pm (UTC)[Just about. The bird may have suffered a fright, though.]
You're certain I'll never be replaced by a younger, more fashionable model?

no subject
Date: 2012-01-10 01:07 pm (UTC)[Circling around a puff of cloud.]
--you displacing yourself!
[...no. No barrel roll. Honestly, Regulus.]
