Private message to Narcissa Malfoy

Narcissa -

I am so very glad you were there today. Watching you in your element is - well, Antosha was on at me on Friday about recognising and appreciating excellence. I am entirely in awe of your ability to get at what I wanted and couldn’t find words for.

Thank you, too, for talking both Mum and Diane out of the piles of tulle and froth. I don’t think I’d have managed it on my own. And once we got through the “No, really, try this, some people discover they like it” and the things that were entirely too young for me, it was incredibly helpful to have your comments about what does and doesn’t work for my body.

Who do you suggest for further conversations? I’m certainly comfortable working with Revati, and there’s something to be said for that. But I do trust your recommendations on how to hit exactly the right note.

I hope Diane wasn’t too wearing. (She means well, just it’s a bit much sometimes.) And Mum has already said how glad she was you were there. I do think this whole thing - now it’s hitting home for her - is a little overwhelming. And much as we love each other and get on well, I’ve always been a bit of a puzzle to her, so we’ve never really gone clothes shopping since I was old enough to buy my own.

At any rate - I hope more time to just chat, sometime soon, without my family along. In the meantime, I am entirely appreciative, and I’m sure Raz will be when he sees the end results.
