Kyle nodded, then said "Why in the world does your brother want to get in good with Maggie? He already has the Dark Mark. He wrote to her the day he got it. Maggie doesn't have it yet, says she'll get it after she graduates. Wouldn't it make more sense for her to be trying to be in his good graces? If she pretended to like you that'd be one way right? But instead she's doing that 'I don't care what you do' thing she does when things are going according to some weird plan she has." Kyle mulled that over with Siobhan until the dinner bell rang.

"Meet you in the library after dinner?" He asked as they climbed the front steps of the castle.
