Aurora had stayed home for three full days before Rabastan forced her back to the labs. And although she fought in staying the full week as she had planned, the brothers had already taken everything of their mother's that they wanted. Orion had been disturb at the overlay of the argument, but never the less he showed his sense of pride when he fawned over his little light.

Having lived and faced Walburga's taunts and arguments for most of her life brought her to fight with a coat of armor. But it was the first day in Rory's return that had Rabastan repeat all that Rory had fought with.
And the painting wouldn't stop laughing.

"Sir, your daughter packs a punch."

"But broke his jaw! Oh sweet Salzar give me strength, the only time I recall having this good of a laugh is when she blocked her mother's curse!" The husband recalled that incident, it was just after the time Rory had been able to use magic without the trace of underage magic.

So how many times had Walburga used the curse on Aurora?

How many times had his Rory been under any curse?

"My daughter's inheritance will be enough if your father decides to shun you from the will. But Gringotts usually takes their time to update, however I doubt he will. With your children it rises your station over your brother. Even if he does miraculously have children, yours are the eldest." Rabastan finally understood part of the relationship his wife had with her father, it was drastically different than the one he had with his own.

But then again, he was closer to his mum.

"Is everything else alright? Has she returned to work?" The wizard nodded to the portrait.
"She wanted to stay longer, but I—I know the wedding is coming." Orion sighed, nodding his head to a certain beat as he was agreeing.

"I do not mean to bring up difficult topics Rabastan, but had my daughter died in childbirth...You would've been—"

"I wouldn't have remarried, the twins were perfectly fine at the time." Orion disagreed. 

"The world keeps spinning Rabastan, Rory has moved on from my death. She's accepted it. You will get there just the same."
The young father had chuckled, a smile erupting on his face.

"I know we were never close when you were alive sir, but you certainly know what to say."

"That is because you were dating and then married to my daughter, do you believe you will be close to Halsey or Cara's husband?"
Orion watched in amusement to see Rabastan grow angry to the idea of his little munchkins being with someone.
