She had been on the verge of tossing aside the whole useless bag and the stupid starched handkerchief she'd found inside it, back to the floor from where she had snatched it, when a resounding voice stopped her in her tracks.
She looked towards them.
She had half-expected it to be the owner of this worthless bag (no amount of galleons were worth the price of her notebook, please) accosting her with an accusation of theft, but the accusation from him felt like a great deal more than that. It couldn't even be his bag - it was probably a lady's purse - but for a suspended moment Porphyria's mind went blank, her predicament forgotten, beyond the fact that she was in the midst of a crisis and now he had the gall to be here to witness it!
"Ugh," Porphyria groaned aloud, too irked by the sight of him to feign icy impassivity. "Just what I needed," she muttered, gritting her teeth and clutching bitterly at not-her-bag, sure that he was a harbinger of her bad fortune. Of course wretched happenings couldn't be counted upon to come alone; of course he was always lurking in the park like it was his corner of the underworld. "What the hell do you want?"
