*And before Bellatrix even rightly knows how this has happened from coming over here to bother this woman, she's leaning over to hoist the little girl up into her arms. She's done it before, after all, with Draco and others, so it's not that alien to her. And she has had quite a bit of champagne, and even laid her head on Roddy's shoulder, if only briefly--and the girl's face is pleasing, and she has a nice clean-baby sort of smell about her, none of that dreadful curry masala nonsense or whatever it is. Bella's grin widens, her voice draws out into a coo, and she touches a manicured fingertip to Parvati's little nose.*
