"How queer - where do they come from?"

"No one knows, it seems likely wizards some long time ago created them. They're all magically bound to the service of one wizarding family or another - or to my school -"

"They sound so convenient."

"They are, I have no idea how people get by without them."

"They make their wives and children do everything or hire servants."

"I was thinking farther down the line than that. Wizards don't do divorce either but if you wanted to leave I would hardly stop you -"

Permalink

"I don't really see myself running away from being actually married."

Permalink

"Okay." Squeeze. And he goes back to singing.

Permalink

Snuggle.

And eventually he (but not she) can see their estate in the distance. He waits until they get closer, then - "see that hill over there? You want to - look closely and imagine it's not a hill, it's a valley with a stone wall covered with vine and white stone buildings within -"

"Imagine it's a -?" She squints.
