Unfortunately to her great disappointment, Rodolphus was not dining alone that evening. When Hermione entered the dining room she was displeased to find his younger brother sitting in the chair across from hers. Both wizards were already drinking wine and laughing. As soon as she stepped inside the room, they stopped to stare. She considered briefly running back up the stairs and hiding a little bit longer. A meal with one of the brothers was treacherous enough. With both? She would've almost rather died.
