a follow-up
Of course, Emmeline knew that Death Eaters had lives outside their terror mongering and nighttime activities. She knew this. They tailed suspected Death Eaters all the time. But seeing the man she’d knocked out and then helped heal in an alley at Malcolm Greengrass’s fancy charity event certainly threw her for a loop. On one hand, it meant that her healing had held up well and the man had survived. On the other hand, he was just... walking around as though he’d earned a free pass. Though she supposed he had surrendered. No one of the other Death Eaters had ever surrendered. Even Nigel they’d had to arrest and lean on first.
Well. If she had to stay at this fancy pants event for a least another hour to make sure Hestia didn’t bother her about never socializing, then she might as well make that hour count. Healers did follow-ups all the time. This one just happened at a party and the original work had occurred in an alley.
“You’re looking much better now.” She said quietly once she got in within earshot of the other man. Had she ever gotten his name? Emm couldn’t remember. “Glad to see you got out of that alley.”
