Darling, do you see a halo anywhere? [Alastor is very amused.] I haven't given up my vices, just found other ways to indulge without incurring the wrath of our neighbors. Besides, two years of good behavior hardly makes up for over a hundred of sin.

[He clears his throat.]

However, Miss Mei, I do have to ask that you stop hugging me please. I'm not the biggest fan of extended physical contact, especially when I'm not fully decent.
