Miss Carrow

The Russian clicked his tongue in a disapproving manor. “Of course you could and I should let you. But if he’s an order member it’s better to be safe than sorry.” he huffed. If she wanted to prove herself then he could step back and just watch her if she so wished but knowing himself, he knew that such an outcome would be minimal. He was in no mood to give a lecture on torture and interrogations so the way he saw it was that he could just as well do it himself.

Nottingham. Of course. At the mention of it, he barely turned his head to look over his shoulder at her and gave her a small sneer. It wasn’t her fault that he disliked the place so much. “I might know where that is.” he answered and donned his own cloak. He eyed her hand for a moment before he raised his hand and let it hover above hers for a moment and his eyes zeroed in on hers. “Be sure you take us to the east side of the building. here are some abandoned buildings there, the tree line on the north side is where they would expect us to go because it’s more secluded.” it was her mission, he could always give the illusion that she was in charge and he was just there to help. He knew that area, even if he had grown up outside of town he had still been a restless and curious child and teen that wandered and ventured into the city. He gave a curt nod to show her that he was serious, that she should really take his suggestion seriously before his larger hand gripped her hand tightly.

Alecto nodded, knowing better than to question. She needed to blend in and to make allies, her father would punish her if she didn't or if she caused any troubles and heaven knows she did not want that. In fact, the more time she spent outside her home the better, so she might as well try to make friends. "Thank you, that's very nice of you" she smiled slightly.

Antonin eyed the Carrow girl in silence. He knew her brother, could mostly call him a friend (as much as one could call anyone here friends really) but he didn’t know her. He’d spent most of the meeting glaring daggers at Bellatrix between listening to what the Dark Lord had planned and then the meeting was over. Their little exchanged had happened right in front of him and he couldn’t avoid noticing. “It would seem you’re in need of a new partner,” he spoke slowly as his eyes traveled to the spot where Amycus had stood previously and back to Alecto. They had been in the same house in school, she was just a few years younger than him.

“Just know that I will not give credit to your brother for my work. Now are you coming?” he asked and gestured to the doorway. He didn’t even ask if she wanted to partner up with him, it was more of a silent command and an obvious choice for him to step in. His own orders could wait for a little bit. He was to continue some interrogations, practice his new spells but the captives could sweat it out a bit longer as he stepped in here for a few moments. It was an interrogation too, right? He was totally up for some good old torturing this morning, it was a good start of the day.

Alecto loved her brother to death, but he could be a fucking idiot sometimes. "I... yeah, I am" she nodded but quickly added. "I can do it alone though" she said, showing weakness was not something advisble. She probably could do it on her own, people tended to underestimate her but there was so much more than what met the eye. She was the smarter twin, she was the one who got outstanding grades and did Amycus' homework so he wouldn't be punished by their father. But no, no matter how much she proved herself, Alecto was always going to be the lesser kid, and she hated that. Not that she let it show, she was trained to act as if her whole world wasn't falling apart constantly.

Alecto was slowly finding her place among the ranks. She and Bellatrix Lestrange were the only women in there, so needless was to say that it was a very patriarchal system. Some of the men in there didn't take her seriously because she was a girl, but also because she was young. Sure, she was young and she obviously lacked of experience, but she was a fast learner and efficient. Every task that the Dark Lord gave her, she delivered it properly.

Once the meeting was over and Amycus told her he had a date, Alecto found herself a bit lost and quite annoyed. They were supposed to pay a visit to some shop owner who was rumoured to have aided some Order member. "Seriously, Amycus?" She demanded as she saw her brother disappearing right in front of her. And now she was alone. "That's fucking fantastic" she scoffed angrily before feeling someone's presence. "What?” She demanded angrily before realizing who it was. “Oh, Antonin, I was blocking your way... I'm sorry..." she sighed and immediately stepped aside.
