𝟛𝟟⏐the chamber of secrets

"Miss Weasley, would you be able to read the next chapter?"Dumbledore asks Ginny who was looking slightly more pale than usual but was looking determined. She nods and the book is sent to her.

"Gin are you sure?" Ron asks his sister with a small frown. Ginny and Cordelia both never talked about the chamber, and he knew that this was hard for them.

"I'll be okay Ron." Ginny determinedly states Luna, holding the book open with one hand, holding her hand with the other so that they could hold it together. "The Chamber of Secrets." She reads, swallowing after. Luna squeezes her hand lightly, giving her an extra boost of courage.

"All.... Seamus.

"Poor Neville, we really put him through the ringer that year," Cordelia says to her friends, smiling at Neville's blush. She loved embarrassing her godbrother.

"Shut up you little brat." Neville rolls his eyes with a smile on his face, showing that he was just joking. "I swear one of these days I'm going to hex you." Neville threatens lightly.

"Yeah right, you wish," Cordelia responds, nudging him with her shoulder.

"Alright, you two don't start now." Luna interrupts, chiding them with her melodic voice. They both give her a fond look.

"Yes, Lulu." They chime in unison, to the confusion of some in the hall. Luna was like Cordelia when it came to the two god siblings, she could get them to stop much like Cordelia got Ron and Hermione to stop.

"Wow, it's like watching Sirius and James." Remus jokes lowly to Lily who covers a snort with her hand. He raises his eyebrow at the reaction.

"At least they have more brains than Sirius and James." Lily giggles making both of them bust out laughing, to the confusion of their husbands.

"You two wanna share with the class or what?" Sirius inquires to the two of them, having gotten used to them conspiring against James and him since the first year.

"No, we're good," Remus responds with a smirk, resulting in matching pouts from James and Sirius. "You'll just have to suffer in not knowing." He adds, teasingly winking at his husband.

"The... exam. She was too worried about her friends, and Dumbledore not being there made her uneasy.

Ron ..... loudly.

"I wish you had written home, Ronnie." Molly softly sighs but Cordelia, Neville, and Ron share a look with a small grin.

"We aren't." They respond, giggling lightly at what was said. All of the other adults look at them confused but Dumbledore has on a slightly amused face, thinking it was hilarious that they preferred it.

"Did you end up being able to turn them into slippers?" James turns to his daughter with a curious look on his face, he had found that lesson easy and had turned them into bunny slippers with cute little tails.

"Yes, I did just fine, I was just concerned with the heir business and stuff." Cordelia frowns, remembering how the time frame was. "I thought they would be more interested in saving everyone and finding the chamber to ensure it wouldn't happen again, not the other way around." Cordelia murmurs to her parents who give her an understanding look, knowing her head was in the right place.

Three.....culprit."

"Why didn't you all just buy Mandrakes?" Andrea Greengrass asks with a small frown, upset at the children had to wait to get unpetrified. The staff all looks at each other, unsure of the answer to the question.
