Milly was startled when the letters appeared, but read through them, one by one. Bellona deserved her most thoughtful consideration of the correspondence, after all - especially if it was serious enough that she had brought the letters to her. After all - well. They rarely reached any point with men, let alone the point of telling one's sister.
A was thoughtful; that was immediately clear. He was thoughtful, and he was lonely, and he was tied to the museum - which meant to Camilla, more than his Hogwarts house, that he was smart. She set the final letter down on Bella's coverlet.
"If you don't meet him, I think you'll regret it," she said, easily.
There was a part of her that was jealous - although they had their shared woes, and were certainly better off than Lavinia living apart from her husband, Bellona was younger. So maybe it was unfair that the ad in Witch Weekly had featured her. But. Well. Oughtn't Bellona try this, if A was interested?
