Dark Side of the Moon 3

After several seconds, in which Voldemort had went back to regarding Narcsissa, Bellatrix exploded with cackles of laughter. She exulted, “Master! We must honor you with a formal celebration after the coup! There is no higher pleasure to have your presence of- of glory. We must expound our worship through a lavish celebration of your victory!”

Voldemort did not respond. For the first time in awhile he was indecisive. Breathless and imploring Bellatrix waited.

Presumably, the celebration should be held Saturday, the second of August. This worked well as it was the weekend, the ministry was closed. And Voldemort intuitively knew he wanted the wider Wizarding population to believe all was well. But for himself, this party would mean he would have to stop looking for the Unbeatable wand, which he was so keen for he could not lose a night. But maybe, by then he would have it in his possession. There was also the issue that Voldemort did not care for a party even in his name. It was a frivlous waste of time according to him. Then no it was. There would be no ridiculous cohorting of his Death Eaters when they should be serving him purposefully.

But on second thought, he realized there would be advantages. After the coup he could announce some of the new arrangements and have several private political talks during the party including what to do with Hogwarts and how the new Headmaster he had in mind should exert their power. Several family and friends of the Death Eaters could be asked for and it could even be possible to find out where Gregorovitch was if wizards from the Durmstrang came. Generally the victory party would serve to concentrate Voldemort's power to a much greater degree.
