I'm getting worried about Cedric and Lavinia. They are becoming too open with their romance and when Uncle Lucius returns one or both of them will reap the consequences, which I cannot imagine will be good. I fear that this is a beautiful calm before the ensuing storm.
Where is Lucius, anyway? We have not heard word from him in almost a week. That seems strange, especially in light of him having house guests that he quickly abandoned. What's going on with him? *bites fingernails in nervous anticipation of his return*
