Uh... Yeah. Headcanon from a fic on AO3 but I love it so much I'm gonna start using it
Bellatrix, Andromeda, Narcissa, Sirius, Regulus and Nova made up a code to use to know how each other were doing
"How are the stars tonight?" One would ask
The other would say something like "they're fading" or "there are no stars tonight" and that's how they communicated their well-being.Fading stars might mean that they're really hurt but there's hope to get better
Only two people ever said there are no stars.
Andromeda after her wedding with Ted.
Sirius the night he fled to the Potters
