CYNICAL && beautiful, open.

[BLACK, narcissa]

Dear Whoever,

now there.
i know you enjoy chewing bubblegum.
but really now, is it necessary to chew it THAT loudly?
not only is it disgusting & quite rude.
but it is quite obvious that you, my friend, did not learn your manners.

sincerely yours,

Miss Black

[LESTRANGE, bellatrix]

dear narcissa,

Is it really in your best interest to
chastise me, Cissy? I mean honestly, do you forget who I am?
Perhaps I will forgive you because I just adore you. And I am not
chewing my gum loudly, it is simply the bloke next to me. Next time,
you should check to make sure your assumptions are correct.
The next person may not be so kind as I. Hard to believe, isn't it?

BELLATRIX VIOLANTE LESTRANGE.

[BLACK, narcissa]

DEAR LORD,

i almost had a heartattack when saw your name, Bella.
for I surely thought, "Good God, it's BELLATRIX chewing that loudly?"
An alarming thought, to be honest.
Do me a favor and tell whoever it is
to mind their manners.
How has it not bothered you?
dear Bella, if I were not your sister, I'm assuming you would've hexed me for scolding you, hm?
i merely have your best interests at heart.

Cissy.

[LESTRANGE, bellatrix]

dear narcissa,

Dear Lord? Didn't mother teach you
that it wasn't proper to use the Dark Lord's name in vain?
I mean honestly, Narcissa, have some class, will you? In
fact, it was not I who was chewing like a cow in pasture,
but it is the stupid git sitting in front of me. I have taken
it upon myself to forgo the warning and just hex him into
silence. I had contemplated whether or not to imperius him
and force him to choke himself with the gum, but that would
be rather messy wouldn't it? Beside that, it would draw a
spectacle, something that I am not at liberty to do at this moment.

How are things at school, sister? I trust that you are doing well
and following the rules of which the proper pureblooded girl
should abide?

BELLATRIX VIOLANTE LESTRANGE.

[BLACK, narcissa]

dearest bellatrix,

oh Bella, you know mother would never teach me
something like that. she lost all her sophisticated mannerism once i left
for Hogwarts, remember? although why, i'm not so sure.
Oh & why not, sister? Can't the infamous Bellatrix Black get away with
anything?
Things at school are well, I suppose. One mere year & I am finally free of that
horrid place. I do wish I had been sent to another school, though. perhaps
Beaxubatons? Mmm, perhaps not, I suppose. With those idiotic French? Don't
think so.

Enough of my rambling! How are you, dear? As cliche as this sounds, i've missed you!

dear narcissa,

Oh, come on, Narcissa. No matter
how much you deny it, you know that the only thing that
Druella is left with is her sophisticated mannerism and etiquette.
The woman is nothing more than a coiffed cupcake. As much as
I hate her and hate to admit it, I will give credit where it is due.
The woman knows the exact right way to act at a tea party.
How useful.

The infamous Bellatrix Black can get away with anything, but
the Dark Lord has asked me to stay out of trouble after I have gotten
into some little trouble. But don't you worry about that, my dear. It
is inconsequential. I wouldn't want to worry you with it unless you
find it truly vital that you know.

And Beauxbatons is a dump full of mindless robots being trained to
be french wanton whores. I would never have let you be sent there,
and you should shun yourself for even thinking such a thing.

How am I? Rather well, except that I have been stuck in the house,
once again because of the Dark Lord's orders to stay out of trouble.
Rodolphus has been even more of an egotistical arse lately, and I
have started planning several ways to off him, but I cannot seem to
find the right time or the will to kill him. It's a shame, I am sure that his
blood would truly be blue if I spilt it.

And Lucius and yourself? How is the pending engagement coming?

BELLATRIX VIOLANTE LESTRANGE.

[BLACK, narcissa]

dear trix,

i care not.
silly Bella, I know you don't HATE mother. she's our mother after all.
there's not much we can do about it.
but keep in mind, she raised you as well.
enough of this mother-talk, yes?

Of course I will worry about you, Bellatrix, it would be foolish
of you to think otherwise of me.
you're the only thing I have left, so don't propose it!

ah Trix, but you know yourself from past experience how much of
a waste of time Hogwarts is. you also know that i simply abhor that school.
Don't be so tempermental, darling.

Ah I see. Have you been following your ever mercificul Lord's orders?
I haven't spoken to Rodolphus in months, from what I can recall. Shame.
He's such an..interesting person to say in the least. Once again, Rodolphus
is quite the unfortunate boy, having been married to the most vivacious person
I have ever had the pleasure to meet.
His personality just doesn't come up to par, I suppose.

Betrothal arrangements have been dismal. Mother often torments me.
'One false move & there goes any of your chances, girl!'
In her annoying and idiotic voice. I haven't even spoken to Luci-fer
in a while, to be frank. have you and is he as obsequious as ever?
