<strong><span class="bbc_u">Lucius</span></strong><br/><br/>To say that Lucius was about to loose his temper was an understatement of massive proportions. He normally worked hard to keep his cool and not show it when he was growing angry but the destruction of his home and the fact that the ruckus didn't seem to be any closer to ending was maddening. Add in metal monstrosity that was stomping around the manor and the fact that someone had just chosen to blast open the door into his kitchen was pushing him closer to his breaking part. This was his home and yet everyone seemed to be showing a complete lack of respect towards him. They were underestimating him, all of them saw his calculating demeanor and assumed that he was a patient manipulative man who was hesitant to act on his own but they forgot that he had risen to one of the top positions in Voldemort's inner circle through force of will and a willingness to stomp on anyone who opposed him with little to no warning at all.<br/><br/>Right now he might need to be a little more careful though, without Voldemort to draw them in Death Eaters were in shorter supply and would be hard to replace, just killing them all without any warning like he felt like doing wouldn't do him any good. “Alright, listen up.” He half growled, turning to eye everyone around him. “Each and every one of you has been showing me a complete lack of respect, interrupting my reading, destroying my new home, and keeping me from getting a good nights sleep in weeks. The next would be dark lord who wakes me up or destroys a portion of my home will find their intestines clearly visible to everyone around them, I already have the spell picked out.” His voice wasn't really raised yet but his tone made it very clear that didn't expect to be questioned or challenged at that moment. Let someone push him on this, they would find out just how dangerous he was when angered.<br/><br/>“And if I hear one more word of using Muggle tools to achieve our ends then I don't know what I will do, if we are willing to do that then we might as well just abandon this country to the Mudbloods and Muggles, this is our place, the Malfoy family has been living here for over ten generations of pure blooded wizards and I would sooner die then betray that heritage in any way.”<br/><br/><span class="bbc_u"><strong>Dominic</strong></span><br/><br/>On the other hand Dominic was only half listening to what was going on around him, the fact that Krys needed to have some glass pulled from her back, the disgusting idea of using a muggle weapon to kill Potter only half caught his attention, the posturing of Lucius was completely uninteresting to him, and the dynamic entry of someone he didn't recognize were all unable to catch his attention when he now had a lovely young pure blood floating before him. Broken properly she could be used as a way to draw Potter out to them, a valuable hostage, or at the very least a useful political tool that could be used to humiliate Potter and those close to him. Her being a blood traitor only sweetened the bargin, he would open her eyes to the proper way of seeing things, make her realize that the proper order of things had pure bloods at top, half bloods as second class citizens, and muggles existing only for the amusement of wizard kind, killed or hunted for sport, experimented on... Dominic didn't consider himself to be overly cruel but he saw advantages to this way of living.<br/><br/>From a pocket inside of his suit jacket he withdrew his wand, two quick waves of his wand reviving Ginny from her unconscious state and then removing the spell that kept her levitating. With a smirk on his face he leaned over her, uncaring of what happened around him, let the others put on their petty shows in an attempt to demonstrate which of them was dominant over the others, Dominic had his eye on the prize that was leadership of the remaining Death Eaters.<br/><br/>“Ginny Weasly...” He said slowly as he looked down at her. “You made a great mistake coming here but I would rather you think of it as an opportunity, this is a chance for you to finally take advantage of your pure blood status. It will take a little time and a lot of hard work but I think the end results will be perfect... and before you think to hard about fighting against me I want you to remember what Bellatrix has done to pure bloods in the past just because she was bored... give me too much trouble and I will hand you over to her.”
