100 Historical Figures in the Wizarding World - 12-13/100

Narcissa Black & Lucius Malfoy

Narcissa was a very proud woman who frequently displayed a haughty and disdainful attitude, looking down upon others. As she believed strongly in the importance of blood purity and valued her family’s wealth, she was prejudiced towards Muggle-borns, other non-pure-bloods such as Fenrir Greyback, and so-called “blood traitors”. Despite being the embodiment of wealth and influence in the wizarding world, Lucius Malfoy was a ruthless bigot; he took great pride in his aristocratic stature, viewing himself as being racially superior. He was also a shrewd, opportunistic social climber who was good at controlling others but behind his veneer of respectability, he treated people cruelly.

“I am a child of a Money hungry, prideful country, grass is green and it’s always sunny hands so bloody, tastes like honey I’m finding it hard to leave.”

“As he moved up the school, he gathered about him a group of dedicated friends; I call them that, for want of a better term, although as I have already indicated, Riddle undoubtedly felt no affection for any of them. This group had a kind of dark glamour within the castle.”

Lucius: It's the ones who play hard to get that are always the sweetest prey. That's what makes Narcissa so appealing; she hasn't made a fool of herself just to gain my favor. What would you call that?

Barty: Dignity?

Lucius: It's outrageously attractive, isn't it?

marlenethemckinnon:

Marlene McKinnon was made of bad decisions and pure sunlight - a creature dangerously ethereal. Those dwelling within the castle knew this well. They’d learned that a smile could be as lethal as anger when it appeared on her lips. Trouble didn’t follow her - it was created by her for the satisfaction of the chase, of escaping or even getting caught. It was harmless fun (usually), proposals that only occassionally led to something more treacherous.

But there was no mischievous smile on Marlene’s lips that evening, no impish laughter, when she said, “I’m in the mood to make some bad decisions,” with a bottle of firewhiskey dangling precariously between fingertips.

“I’m hardly stopping you from that, am I? I wasn’t aware that you know how to make any other kind of decision.” Narcissa glanced down at the firewhiskey with a little shake of the head; if she were going to get drunk here at school - which she wouldn’t; Narcissa Black had a reputation to maintain - it wouldn’t be on something like that.

wildfirevans:

     Back straightening and hand tightening on her wand, Lily paused mid-hex and turned to glance over her shoulder at the individual who happened upon her practice. Ever since the attack, she had been doing so mercilessly – hoping that when the next inevitable attack occurred, she was more prepared than the last. She didn’t like the thought that she could’ve done more.

     “ — You know, sneaking up on someone when they’re practicing martial magic isn’t exactly the smartest thing to do,” the redhead muttered. She lowered her wand and arched an eyebrow, waiting for an explanation for the interruption.

“I was hardly sneaking,” Narcissa said, eyeing the ginger with a raised eyebrow as an almost inaudible sigh escaped her. “It’s not my fault that you weren’t paying attention.” How the other girl had missed the sound of Narcissa’s shoes on the corridor floor was beyond Narcissa, and she didn’t particularly care about it either. 

“I misplaced one of my books. I don’t suppose you’ve seen a copy of Hogwarts, A History laying about, have you?” It wasn’t even meant to be in the stack of books she transferred to her bag anyway, and though she hadn’t read it since her first year, she didn’t like the thought of losing it.

lycanthroptea:

“I survived. Better off than some others, I’d say,” he admitted simply, not wanting to divulge the memories weighing heavily on his chest. Of course she didn’t know – she couldn’t know – but Remus was too careful to let any slight whiff of suspicion leak out ( and of course that was difficult enough when your bloody mates decided to nickname you Moony ). She was strangely dangerous as well. He’d never paid much attention to her, but it was clear that she was a rather sharp young lady; Remus might as well be dead if Narcissa even had the slightest inkling of his condition considering her family ties.

He pulled his knees to his chest, resting his chin on the rough fabric of his trousers. The silence was deafening after the roaring chaos of the day; somehow Remus felt even more jittery than ever in the thick quiet of the Astronomy Tower. His eyes flickered momentarily to Narcissa, pale skin bathed in the milky moonlight. Had she cared about what happened? He knew Bellatrix was a part of it; he’d heard that much from Sirius after their heated argument in a corridor. Andromeda was a tossup – far too aloof for him to say she’d oppose it, but not quite cruel enough for him to think she’d participate. Narcissa, however, was cold. While Remus wouldn’t be surprised if she’d agreed with the actions, he couldn’t see her soiling her pristine reputation in the process.

The silence nearly stifling, Remus spoke up in a sort of half-whisper to himself. “Dumbledore’s going to have a fantastic time tomorrow dealing with all the owls from parents.”

She hummed in reply, already uninterested in the topic. If he wasn’t going to offer anything stimulating regarding the events of the night, she didn’t care for him to state the obvious. There was a part of her that might feel something like relief at the fact that he was unharmed - despite her many flaws, Narcissa didn’t really want to think about someone hurt, or perhaps she just didn’t want to face the reality of it. But there was also a part of her that did very much want him to suffer, the way that Regulus suffered after the blood traitor decided that the Blacks weren’t satisfactory anymore. 

Her gaze had wandered away from Lupin, to the view of the night sky. Stars and constellations held a strange satisfaction for her - a sense of belonging or a sense of home, perhaps. She felt that she belonged among them, with the night sky glittering above her in acceptance of her place among the Black family. His voice interrupted the silence, which she had been enjoying. Some people felt the need to fill the silence but Narcissa didn’t often - especially with people who weren’t deserving of her attention anyway.

“Mmm, I suppose there will be any number of them. I ought to write home . . .” Her voice trailed off uncertainly as she debated that prospect. Perhaps Bella or Andy could do it - the last thing Narcissa wanted was correspondence with her parents.

15 & 42

15. Describe your ideal world.

“The ideal world, obviously, is one where mudbloods and blood traitors have been put in their proper place beneath true witches and wizards. Where my entire family has been happily reunited and none of us are bearing weight that is far too great.”

42. What’s something you’re afraid that you’re capable of?  

“Why would I be afraid of any of my abilities? I’m a strong witch. There’s no reason to fear what I can accomplish.”

micah-bones:

there is an itch beneath his skin, a persistent crawling he can’t quite scratch – that is the only way he could describe the restlessness that came with the events of hogsmead and never seemed to go away.

making his way down the hall, books tucked in his arms, his feet moving perhaps more briskly than they normally would, micah’s anxiety made itself known the only way it could. “watch where you’re going.” he snapped, as his books tumbled down and he staggered back a step. “are you  blind?”

It was a rare occasion that someone collided with Narcissa Black. Most people were too smart for that - she didn’t take it well. Truthfully, she was graceful enough to avoid it most of the time, unless she was caught off-guard, Which happened in this case.

“Actually, I was watching where I was going,” she drawled coolly, eyes raking over his form as he stumbled. “It appears you would be the blind one in this case. Perhaps you should try paying attention when you’re in a corridor.”

rodolphxsheir:

          It disgusted him – that certain people made him lose his mind in different ways. The Black sisters were the three very definitions of what he meant and here the princess was standing, pristine and perfect, untouched and with unbroken, porcelain skin. “You’d believe the filth learned their place.” Rodolphus’  eyes scattered around the grassy area once more only to take in the joy of young wizards and witches avoiding his sight, pretending to read or practice charms when in reality – shivers went down their spines.

          “I was actually hoping to see you here. I’m afraid we haven’t properly spoken since my last visit at the Black manor. Such a shame, is it not?” he rose his eyebrows, lips curling into the tiniest hint of a smile. “Don’t tell me you’re following the steps of your eldest sister, trying to avoid me because of the inevitable future and certain events.”

“That would be a lovely day, wouldn’t it?” If only it were possible - Narcissa didn’t know if she truly believed it would happen, although she knew there were many people attempting to bring that day about. Rodolphus was undoubtedly one of them, but she kept herself removed from the actual dirty work. It gave her the innocence she needed to maintain her facade among her fellow students and professors. 

“You were looking for me? Why, Rodolphus, how lovely. It has been far too long, hasn’t it?” She flashed him her sweetest smile, eyes wide and clear. “Avoid you? Why would I avoid you? If I were to avoid anyone based on the inevitable future and certain events, it would not be you.” His dear friend Lucius Malfoy, on the other hand, was a completely different story. “But I have no reason to avoid anyone, because the future is such a lovely one.” Though she was lying through her teeth, no one could ever guess from the placid expression on her face and the gentle smile gracing her lips. “Is Bella avoiding you? That’s unfortunate.”
