With some reluctance, Paul let the tent flaps fall, accepting that Potter seemingly had no intention of joining him just yet. Instead, Paul himself stepped towards them, hands finding idle purpose in the pockets of his trousers.<br/>“As you requested, we have rewarded the house,” Paul began. The words were spoken to Potter, but his gaze flickered to Malfoy, an attempt of inclusion. “The perimeter is warded with a redirecting glamour to keep Muggles from approaching, of course, but besides that, the house is being stabilized to prevent any physical deterioration.”<br/>Retrieving his right hand, he gestured at some visible structural damage, the way the house leaned slightly left. “Magically, it’s only warded to contain and minimize explosive damage to the surrounding area, everything within it is as it were.”<br/>This time, Paul directed himself to Malfoy, gesturing back towards the tent.<br/>“We have Peterson here, who did the original scan of the property back in March, and Walker has assisted in repeating it today, but neither scans have found any particular hotspots.”<br/><br/>As soon as it had become clear that Buchannan had entertained him enough to speak outside, Harry’s attention had returned to the house, feeling an odd but subtle sense of relief in keeping it within his sights.<br/>He nodded as Buchannan spoke, turning when the glamour was mentioned. In the horizon, a shimmer flickered in the air, the wobble of a false reality. It had been a great worry to Harry that Muggles would venture through the property, worried for their safety.  It caught Harry’s attention when Buchannan’s team once again concluded the house to be devout of curses; frankly, he was surprised.<br/>“Particular?” Harry pressed, made weary by the phrasing.<br/><br/>Paul made a face at that. Potter had asked for something that was merely a matter of phrasing and choice of words.<br/>“It didn’t find any hotspots,” he repeated more steadfastly. “There’s trace amount of magic, as there is in any home inhabited by wizkind for a prolonged period of time. It doesn’t show on scans, much less as areas of interest.”
