*The manor is sprawling but it's more stone and glass than woodwork; sound carries. Lucius hears the summons - called like a dog in his own home, what have things come to - and swears under his breath as he runs through the extensive mental list of things he doesn't want the Ministry to find. It takes another few moments to secure the rest of what's in the study, and that's all he can do; there's no time for the rest of the house, not without looking too suspicious.
He joins Narcissa without too much pause, pale gaze flicking from man to man. Moody - there's no surprise, and he wishes now he hadn't baited him. But the other three are personally offensive where Moody is just irritating. Sirius Black does not exist so far as this household is concerned, and so it's terribly rude of him to be standing in the foyer. The Prewett twin - whichever one it is, Lucius has never bothered to tell the difference between them - might have been alright were it not for the Muggle sympathies. And the Order. And being an Auror. The Prewetts as a whole are acceptable, just not that particular knot of them.
And then, worst of all - Lucius wants to spit curses, he wants to hex him on sight, but he restrains himself and merely raises his chin a fraction, looking down his nose at them, and keeps his voice coolly offended.*
Weasley. Having a holiday, are we? Seeing what an actual house looks like?
