Anita smiled at the bar attendant as she sat down on a stool. The place was pleasant enough, just as she had remembered from when she attended Hogwarts, and she found the thought comforting. At least everything hadn’t changed, unlike her little sister. Her drink was placed in front of her and she nodded in thanks. Amy had been the typical little sister, who only wanted to follow her around and ask her anything that came to mind. During her teenage years, she found it annoying but now that she was older she simply missed being the idol of another person. Unfortunately, while Anita was out of the country, experiencing anything that the world had to offer, Amy was growing up. Now, the fourteen year old was more interested in doing well with her school work and friends than in the tall tales that Anita liked to tell her.

Once upon a time, she would have been thankful for the peace, but instead she felt lonely. She had not received a reply to the letter that she had sent with her owl, Athena, to her younger sister. Either she was being ignored or had been placed on the back burner of her sister’s life, and the selfish streak in Anita made its way to the surface. Taking a small sip from her drink, the blonde thought about another letter that she had been hoping to see every morning when she woke, only to be disappointed.

Anita had applied for a job at the Ministry of Magic, and it seemed that they were taking their time in getting back to her. She had thought that she’d have been accepted for the job already, or at least been told that she was unsuccessful, but thus far there had been no contact at all. Yet another thing that had been dwelling in her mind, as she had little to spend her time on until she managed to secure a job position somewhere.

With a mind full of bothersome thoughts, Anita didn’t even notice that somebody had joined her at the bar. Not, at least, until she sipped once more at her drink and took the opportunity to glance around. “Ah.. hi?” she offered, in an attempt to start some kind of conversation with the newcomer, hoping that she wasn’t interrupting their own important musings.

Marilyn wasn't often in Hogsmeade, what with the residual therapy from her vocal reconstruction and her job at the Ministry and Auror training, not to mention that she'd recieved some 'subtle' hints from her Grandparents to let herself be seen, and heard, by the press to show the world that one of its most infamous witches and prominent heiresses was indeed, not 'psychotic' or 'antisocial'. Mari had taken that opportunity to point out that she was, indeed, not very social, but it hadn't had much of an effect.

And the operation that had restored her voice back to its soft normal tones had brought a new bought of confidence in the woman. Gone was one gruesome reminder of her captivity and torture. Now all that remained were the scars, stretching from left temple down her cheek and ending at her jawline, also criss-crossing across her shoulders and neck. With time they'd become white and thin, but still very visible. Though, honest, she often caught herself not noticing them instantly anymore.

So to test her confidence, appease her grandparents and release stress, she'd gone shopping in Hogsmeade, with her service dog, Jagger, by her side. Who was really so large, a black newfoundland, he was also a bit of a bodyguard.

Press was easy, really, tabloids didn't dare come near after she'd set one particularily rude paparazzo on fire. So it was mostly broadsheets who knew how to behave. The stress relief was also quite alright for the most part, she adored window shopping, the actual shopping just so.

So taking a break she took a deep breath to steady herself before strolling in and sitting at the bar, Jagger close at her heels, trying hard to pretend she wasn't holding her breath.

“Ah.. hi?”

"Hello," She turned to look at the woman beside her with a polite smile,hoping that she'd not panic or freak out or become in any way starstruck'. Not starstruck because of who Marilyn was, no that was panic and freak out, starstruck because her boyfriend had been an International quidditch star, only adding to the amont of publicity the two had to navigate around. Also it never ended well for her boyfriends fangirls if they tried to be rude to Mari.

Anita smiled slightly when the woman returned her greeting. Perhaps she didn’t mind her starting a conversation, although she may have replied to be polite. Tilting her head slightly, her brow furrowed and she said, “I recognize you from somewhere..” She may have known the woman from her school years, and as she hadn’t been in the country for some time, it wouldn’t have been surprising. “Did you go to Hogwarts?” she asked, trying to remember where she’d seen her before.

Shaking her head slightly to re-focus her attention, the blonde smiled once more and said, “I’m Anita. I hope that I’m not interrupting you.” Looking down at the dog that appeared to belong to her new company, she woman smiled at the animal but did not reach out to touch it. Some animals were there for a reason, and she didn’t want to impose on that reason without permission. Though, she did love animals for the most part, she found it easy enough to return her gaze to the woman’s face. “Your dog seems very attentive to you,” she said, hoping that she didn’t sound presumptive, only curious.

“I recognize you from somewhere...”

Well, she seemed nice enough, Mari thought, and she obviously didn't read much news seeing as she and Jake or she and her family were in it constantly. Most would instantly place her instantly, but Mari let the woman have a chance to place her first.

“Did you go to Hogwarts?”


"No, I went to Salem, but it's been awhile." This would be a bit of a tipoff, since Mari was the most famous face of the Salem kidnappings, when the Black Widows were still at large, hijacking the train and kidnapping graduates and other students and holding them in Guantanamo bay, slowly torturing and killing them to create an army of inferi. After a year she'd escaped, half-dead. But it had been a few years now...

"Lovely to meet you, Anita, I'm Marilyn Caldwell. And you're not interrupting anything" She replied, taking a sip of her water whilst Jagger stood at attention, scanning the room for threats.

“Your dog seems very attentive to you,”


"He's my service dog, Jagger, I know he's massive, but he's friendly, you can pet him if you like," She smiled.
