By now long used to seeing Limpet's face turn back towards them at the start of class, Nem gave her a little nod in greeting when they saw her do exactly this. That was all, up until the moment Recard launched into her lesson.

She was making this easy. A little too easy. Nem could have provided a certain name, maybe it was even expected of them by some, but they didn't. Until Cambridge spoke, they didn't say much of anything, but then chimed in with, "They also marry internationally. More options." Which was also one of the ways you could be a true pureblood in this country and yet have a name not on that list.

Not the case for Nem's family, obviously. They and their siblings were not pureblood, as evidenced by Pax and Ezra's automatic presence in that room last year, but as far as Nem had been able to find out, they were distantly descended from at least one of those Sacred Twenty-Eight families on Jake's mother's side. Their paternal grandfather claimed Yaxley pureblood heritage too, but Nem had never found any reason to disregard that whole obscurity. Even their surname had been born with Heath. Becca was muggle-born, so nobody on her end.

There was more they could have said - an actual answer to the question, perhaps - but Nem left it at that.
