Lucius, please. It's no use getting cross with him, anyone can understand he's upset.

Draco, he didn't mean it to sound as ... well, as dismissive as all that. Did you, my love?

We always value your letters home, son. And don't worry, dearest, we'll be sending you all you need for a jolly Christmas with Harry and your cousin Hydra. You'll barely miss being home.

Please you two, don't quarrel.
