Hadrien POV

Dragontongue
Parseltongue

Pansy, Hermione, Neville, Blaise, and I all walk to the dining room in a line of sorts. It's, in actuality, more like a V-shape, with myself in the very front, Pansy and Blaise on my direct left and right (respectively), and their mates behind them and slightly left- (Hermione) and right-ward (Neville). When we enter the dining room, Luna, Fluer, George, Fred, dad, mum, and Bellatrix are already there.

"Where are Cedric and Viktor?" I ask as I sit down, Draco and Narcissa entering moments later.

"They're conversing about something important in the hallway outside. They have an important announcement to make to us all over lunch. Mr. Krum is worried about his image with us all. Cedric has asked me to stop-- oh. He can hear me. Sorry, Cedric," Luna says in her usual dreamy tone.

Fluer gazes at her both suspiciously and curiously, though the latter was more prominent. Tippy apparates and draws everyone's attention, saying that lunch would be served when everyone was present and seated. After I thanked her she pops out of the room and we descend into our conversations. I occasionally put a few words of input here and there and I pay special attention to Draco's conversation with Cissa, Lucy, mum, and Pansy. I'm just making sure that they don't mention the pregnancy. Our conversations end about 5 minutes later when Cedric and Viktor enter the room.

"I'm guessing our seer is correct and you have a big announcement for all of us, this being the reason why you're both late. Sit," I say plainly and both Viktor and Cedric bow their heads as mum glares at me.

"Hadrien! Mind your manners! These are still guests at Riddle Manor!" he says and I respond in Dragontongue.

"Mum! These are members of my circlet! It's not like I'm going to torture them for being late!" I say and he looks about to respond before someone interjects.

"Er-- what language is that?" 'Mione asks and Pansy physically rejoices.

"Finally! Something I know that the Great Hermione Granger doesn't!" she sighs at that and the lunch chosen by the house elves appears right as Cedric and Viktor are settled.

"Could you just answer the bloody question, Pansy?" Hermione says, clearly exasperated.

"It's Dragontongue. Hadrien tried to teach it to us when we were younger, but only those with dragon inheritances can speak it accurately," Blaise says and I nod.

"Cedric and Viktor would like to speak now if that is all right with you, Hadrien," Luna says in her (iconic) dreamy voice.

"Go ahead," I say as we all make plates of lunch for ourselves, myself discreetly adding more of everything to Draco's plate when he wasn't looking.

"So... a recent development has been made..." Viktor says, trailing off at the end.

"Oh, get on with it, child!" Lucius exclaims and I look at him, my eyes glowing and full of malice.

"Patience is a virtue, Lucy. Please refrain from insulting and yelling at my circlet members," I say lowly, my eyes still glowing.

"Master Hadrien is upset. Do you need me to bite Lucius? I gladly will for the hatchling of master Tom!" Nagini speaks to me in Parseltongue.

"No, thank you, Nagini. Maybe another time. Have you eaten today?" everyone looks at me oddly except dad, who looks proud, and mum, who looks fondly at Nagini, who is sliding up my chair legs and around my neck and waist.
