The locket is warm in Albus' hand, the brush of Gellert's fingers causing delicate shivers to race up Albus' arm. He turns the locket over, his own fingers examining the ornate decorations. He sensed the weight of the object, heavy with magic that was all too familiar.

"I believe there were other ways I was intent to show you that love was more than a cruel joke." Albus met Gellert's gaze, his eyebrow raising in a mischevious arc that implicated the double meaning in his words. "You always did prefer I show rather than tell."

The moment of humor gone, Albus held out the locket, returning it to its new owner. "You'll find that many things are different here. I purchased a sweet from a shop and discovered a strange card inside. I had the most terrific beard."

He didn't go into details regarding the woman from the Ministry. There was a time and a place for such revelations. Standing in the middle of Knockturn Alley was not the proper place. "I have a flat nearby in London," he says suddenly. "We should talk."
