"I had absolutely no idea that she existed because that was what her mother wanted. You don't have to believe me, but I do need for her to go to Hogwarts. She was... expelled from Beauxbatons. All I can find out is that she was apparently behaving in a "combative and unladylike" way. Here, that's the letter they sent me."

He held out the letter for her. "I know Hogwarts doesn't have to take her but I don't know what I'm going to do with her if they don't. I'd appreciate your advice."
Antigone went into business mode and took the letter from Malachi and read the Proper French and frowned. "Well, we can get her into Hogwarts, Malchi, no worries. There are far worse things than unladylike behavior going on there. You have nothing to explain to me about that woman or the child you share with her," Antigone said, her tone softening. "I will need all of her transcripts and information to send to Tat... The Headmaster. Consider it done though, Malachi." she added as she looked back up at him.

She thought he needed a woman's touch. A woman to take care of him, but she couldn't be that although part of her ached to do so. She did however reach out and push his hair out of his gaunt face. "You should go get a bite to eat in the cafeteria," she said finally, hand still resting on his face for a moment.
