I hope the surge does you much good, bratishka. Am similarly energised, though not with wholesale excitement. Perhaps it's just as well that you and Barty are not parents; I fear that those of us who have charge of our offspring cannot look upon a deed such as tonight's with anything but a mixed conscience. Had we proceeded to your original suggestion and forced O'Connor to perform the curse on his sister, rather than his nephew, sure I would feel much the same, with no qualms. That's not to say the boy did not do admirably - quite the contrary. Still. When I think of Draco in a similar position .... Well. Best not to consider such a pass.
As for Dominic, his brood are all even younger, around the same age as Ari's younger children. Sympathise with his fears for their safety. Of course, in his case, the simple introduction of separate bedchambers might affect any number of improvements to his domestic situation.
For my part, remain as devoted to Our Lord as ever, but must admit that His volatility creates the sort of uncertainty one finds inconvenient in running a country. In some ways, I believe He was so jubilant following Ireland because it allowed Him (and us) the chance to revive a proportion of the old order, to indulge, if you will, in our more straightforward rule of law. Cannot blame Him for loss of patience with the Ministry, the Wizengamot, even others in our circle, who do not share the same vision for our prosperity as Our Lord did does.
