You know he's in Dovs' office every evening serving detention? At least with normal breakups it's not a sentence against any sort of social life. Rama, it's bad enough having to keep Zabini in our group now but I'd think what F-Fs has to do is worse--imagine having to pretend he's happy about Hydra and Harry!
Oh, speaking of horrible ex-boyfriends, did you happen to read this week's In the Soup? There's a short piece where the Aid Society for Distressed Mothers calls out wizards who haven't done their duty by their children. And Corax Mulciber was one. I hadn't even known he had children. Don't suppose that was one of the charities you told to contact Zabini, was it?
No, it wasn't. Shame. I imagine Corax Mulciber's child would be at least as worthy as Giant Hogbush or whatever it was!
I sort of remember hearing about the child, probably from Mr Rosier. She's years away from school yet and her mother and Mr Mulciber weren't ever married.
Well, it struck me as odd, really, because remember when Lestrange taunted me about reading my mind? She made a crack about how Councilwizards can do whatever they please and no one gets to say anything about it. I'd imagine that the people at In the Soup would think twice about embarrassing him like that, though.
Yeah. Maybe they think he doesn't care? For that matter maybe this was actually to shame the mother of his child, and he told them to run the piece? If she's going to a charity her family must not be helping her much, either.
Maybe, but not the way this article was written. I mean, she's quoted saying that he's missed the last six months of payments. She sounds a bit shrill but otherwise it doesn't paint her as the pathetic one.
It sounds much more like someone else thought it would make him look bad. But then from everything I've heard he's got no shortage of enemies at the Ministry, so maybe someone wants to try to get rid of him and thinks this is a step toward that.
Anyway yeah I'm sorry you're stuck working with Zabini but at least no one expect you to pretend to be happy about anything he does! I feel a bit sorry for F-F but he was a complete idiot, thinking he could sneak around with Hydra Lestrange and never get caught.

Seems an odd way to do it, but who knows.
