Summary: | After a brief exchange of letters, Devlin Matthews convinces his father Knox Greyfriar to meet him at the Three Broomsticks in Hogsmeade so he can ask Knox for money so he can have his own flat over the summer. They argue, Knox refuses, and ultimately, Devlin storms out. | ||
Quote: | Knox had really tried to smile. He really really had. But when Devlin was the one who slipped into the pub, wearing that get up and ordering what he did ... Knox knew the kid was doing it all on purpose. Just like he always had done when Knox had been Headmaster Greyfriar. That air of superiority, as if he was daring someone to cross him.
Back then, there had been some sort of sympathy. Some part of Knox that had tried to nurture Devlin. Give him the chances he needed to succeed and use his powers for the forces of common decency. Harnessing that rebel spirit towards something other than personal satisfaction. But Knox had always bristled at Matthews's taunting tone. This attitude that he was above the rules. And even now, Devlin was baiting him. | ||
