[attr="class","textboduni"]Camilla thought she had made a good move, meeting up with Kingsley earlier that day. He was under a lot of pressure and she knew he had more on his plate than any sane person could possibly balance--but that was just the way the Shacklebolts had always been. Going above and beyond, standing out in the crowd, it all just came with the name. If she was being honest, it was part of the reason Camilla had never changed her name after getting married. She would always be Camilla Shacklebolt, no matter what, and a part of her couldn't bear to leave her name behind. She wore it proudly. All of them had done something, at some point, to make a difference. Something to make sure they were remembered. Several things, usually, and that trait did seem to get passed on to their children. Well, except for MJ, who seemed to go out of his way to fly under the radar... but he was still intelligent, and it was recognized, whether or not that was the intention.
Her walk with Kingsley through the pumpkin patch by the Lufkin campus had been good for both of them, honestly. It had given Camilla a chance to clear her head and talk to her brother without any outside forces. No secretary giving them a rather timid reminder that Dean Shacklebolt was running low on time, and no paperwork in front of him to use as a barrier. Besides, Camilla figured that after the week he had had, a reason to escape campus even for a moment would have done him some good. And that was what it had been, in the end. Good. Between people getting sick, both Bangor and Lufkin shutting down, and the magical world trying to piece itself back together, Camilla hadn't even taken a moment to breathe and check in on her brothers. Her husband and children were important, yes, and she would always put Esme, Em, and MJ before anyone else. But before all of that, Camilla had been the older sister to two very outgoing brothers. And she hadn't really had a chance to play that role in a while. She knew things were different with them as adults, that Kings and Chris didn't need a big sister to look out for them and be their listening ear, but Camilla would always be loyal to playing that part.
If she was being honest, she had also wanted to scope the aftermath of everything that had happened with Oralee - which, yes, was a less than honourable intention. But Camilla just cared a lot about her brother andex-sister. Lee was also family, and hearing about everything that was going on between the two of them broke her heart just in t he slightest. Never mind the fact that it shouldn't have been happening in the first place. Camilla didn't think their divorce should have ever happened, really, but leave it to Kingsley to be the dramatic and unnecessarily overprotective one.
And maybe she had asked Kingsley to meet with her today, of all days, knowing full well that she would be meeting with Lee and Zahra later. But that was entirely beside the point. Camilla reached for the wine bottle . on the coffee table and poured herself another glass, then sat back into the couch with a sigh. The point was that she was having an evening with her sisters. Strange, Camilla had always had Kingsley and Chris... the idea of sisters was still something she cherished like a novelty. "So, anything exciting happen lately?" Camilla asked. "Or are we just going to go ahead and avoid the elephant in the room," she continued with a light smirk before taking a sip of her wine.
