Madam Rosmerta hadn't survived as long as she had in her business by denying a paying customer, especially not a dangerous Death Eater. Many times over the years she'd had to prove her loyalty to the regime by entertaining the Dark Lord's faithful in her inn and tavern. Hermione knew that the woman considered her a traitor, but she didn't care. She just wanted a clean room to sleep. Moving her eyes between Hermione and Thorfinn, she finally relented after several tense seconds. Sliding a key across the bar, she directed her newest guest to a vacant room. As Hermione climbed the stairs, she could hear the drunken shouts of Thorfinn declaring he'd never return to The Three Broomsticks again followed by Rosmerta's insincere claim that she was glad to hear it because she was tired of having to levitate his heavy arse off of the floor each night.
