Of course she was! How could Nicola possibly forget? What wasn't Mattie good at? Rather viciously, Nicola immediately thought of two things: social pride or familial bond, but those were not somethings that could be helpful to her own current predicament. Which was, of course, that she certainly couldn't have a member of staff take out their wand to fix a rip in her dress just as much as she could do it herself with a ballroom's worth of eyes on her.
The fact that she had never been good at repair charms and Mattie most likely continued to be very knowledgable in the subject was irrelevant.
But, perhaps, if she were to make it to the loo...
Nicola suddenly stood straight, flattening her front smooth with her palms. Sticking her chin out to elongate her neck, she breathed in deeply before speaking. "I have managed perfectly fine without you for the past year, this is no different." She spoke in a cool manner, making sure to keep her gaze distinctly away from her sister's eyes.
Bending at the knee, Nicola began to carefully collect her train in a manner that would suggest it could be carried in such a way by the hand if you so wished. Hopefully, Rebecca or Katerina would see and believe it a new trend.
