She did wonder, sometimes.

Names supposedly made all the different in the world, and how easily she'd cast away one for the other. Did she regret it? Not at all, she never had. Still, it didn't take a genius to see the way the ministry was supposedly turning. Oh, she doubted it would fully flip-- look who was running it, after all, and perhaps it was likely to soften a blow than to force reconciliation. From those she knew, it wasn't especially likely. 

Still, she was a Ministry girl, and like anyone, she knew better than to even pretend to swim against a tide. No, you swam towards it, with it. You let the tide carry you, made it your broomstick. That had always been her path in life, the middle path that stray to whatever looked to be winning the longer game. Her age would protect her, and she'd done relatively little action, should the tide turn (and still, she doubted it. Look how little people cared.), and her husband's name would shield her more should it flip.

She was looking forward to her marriage more and more, should it continue to go through. It frustrated her that Mikhael had gotten sick-- if pity turned to scorn, that and all her father's gold would help her little. She wanted to write her name into history, write a legacy as great as any of the portraits on the walls (Seraphina's luckily, was not at an angle to peer down at her, though her other ancestor's Josefina's portrait was), and to do that?

She'd weather any changes as best of she could. She was uniquely situated to benefit from anyway the world turned, after all.  Movement-- not from a painting-- flicked at the corner of her eye, and Amelia let herself give a smooth smile. "I quite apologize," she turned, spread her hands, thankful that her caramel apple was hadn't stained her hands. "I didn't think I'd see someone else here at this time."

[attr="class","gummies"]She was still ignoring Nick. He didn't deserve her attention, he didn't deserve any smiles. She cast off her family and she clung to her friends and wrapped them close like they were blankets. She laughed with Dominic and Carin and Henry, she teased the little first years, and she pretended like everything was completely and utterly fine. She wrote her aunts-- who were both sick, both in St. Mungo's-- and she wrote her mum. Merlin and Morgana, she missed her mum. It had been far too long since she was able to see her, and it was... Well, it was hard. It was difficult. Lizzy wanted to be able to see her again, she wanted to be able to do something that would let her get over the borders. But ever since the epidemic (she had had Henry explain what that meant), the borders had been shut down, and her mother had been unable to make it to England. She said that losing her magic was too much of a risk for the moment, that even though she was proven to have magical lineage her Ah Ma might change her mind at any moment. So her mum had to stay in Singapore, and her father had written an apology, and her Ah Kong was sick, and... Well, Lizzy had been in a very tense mood as of late.

At least she had Quidditch. She had Quidditch, and she had her friends, and both of those things together were making her feel better. Hell, together she was feeling a bit better. She was able to fly around, she explored with Henry and Carin, she and Dominic passed notes all during class. She just knew that there was something that would be even better, and that was talking to her brother. But she couldn't. He had lied to her. He had lied to her, and he had left her over the summer, and he had been the one to tell her that their parents were separated. She knew that it had been his duty to tell her. It had been his duty, as the older sibling, to tell her about their family, because they weren't there. She was just supposed to stand there and watch, and acknowledge what was going on. And she couldn't do that, she couldn't just pretend that everything was okay. Her brother had hurt her after an entire year of pulling away, and now he wanted to make things right.

No. Lizzy was through with listening to the older people in her life.

She stormed around, deciding to go to the place where she and the other Musketeers had found a secret passageway. At least she could go hide somewhere dark and hope that everything would get better. They had started to learn Lumos, as a group, last year, and she thought that she might have it together enough to try to light up the passage. Lizzy just wanted to sit somewhere quiet, somewhere she wasn't going to be bothered. With heavy strides, she entered the portrait room. Within three beats, though, her features slid away from frustration and angst and towards surprise. Amelia, Mils, with a caramel apple. Lizzy blinked a few times, her heart in her chest. "Hi."
