✧DADDY!✧

Aurora had managed to get all she needed to do in the timespan of a week, it was difficult and perhaps there was too much coffee in her system and little time to socialize with her brother. But she promised countless times that once this potion was released she was going to take a break, yet those closest to her didn't believe it one bit.

Rory worked on a grind, she lived for the stress that work gave her. It was her thrill, her general high in a sense. But in seeing her work aiding other people—Wether that be through a job or by the product itself really made Rory feel worth something.

The only regret is she wished she found the cure for Dragon Pox sooner.

"You know, when you said you're going to be staying for a week. I thought we could, you know, do something together." Regulus said with a high pout, and Aurora put her hands on her hips and rose a brow. "I'm sorry but this wasn't a vacation brother, I have to make money somehow."

"Oi! I have a job!"

"Yes, and what the bloody hell are you doing here then?" She said incomplete in utter confusion.

But Regulus just swipped an apple off the counter and took a solid bite. "I only had a morning class, it's Intro to DADA, Rory. I'm not out to give these children nightmares. Though one lad was very happy to point out that I sound funny."

"You do sound funny, and I swear to bloody Merlin himself if I hear you or your children speaking without our accent so help me god, Regulus." He grinned ear to ear at the sound of his sister worried on losing his Britness but truth be told, it was nearing the ten-year mark, wasn't it?

"Do you really have to leave tomorrow?" He said with his elbows connected to the table and a pout featured on his lips. "Well my potion isn't going to be released by itself, besides, Lori can't keep traveling back and forth. She needs to settle in one place."

"That place could be here, you know."

"If you knew how much she adores her father then—" Regulus threw up a single hand, not wanting to hear another word of it.

"Well it's true, I've been replaced."

"Rubbish. They're all mummy's kids." She rolled her eyes once again, and went back to making a meal.

"Saw you got a parcel from Hogwarts?"

"Oh, yes I was reprimanded by Romulus for talking to Severus."

"Sever—Snape? You talked to Snape?" She turned over her shoulder and nodded before heading back towards her task.

"Gods Rory, you're setting him up for trouble."

"My son or Snape?"

"The bloke's a no good git Roy, sold out the Potters and then tries to switch sides?"
"Oi! Must I remind you how you're here?"
"I didn't get anyone killed! I tried to find what he was hiding, and good thing I did!" She recoiled, tilting her head before coming closer.

"Did you figure out what it is Reg?" He remained silent, making her lock her hands on her hips. "Regulus...?"
"I'm not a child, you don't need to know every damned detail of the war. Not until later. Keep it to a minimal and must know, focus on the children." Rolling her shoulder did she place lunch before her brother and he huffed a chuckle.

"If this comes to bite my arse later on, you're getting smacked upside the head Regulus." 

"Yes ma'am. Now could you sit down, I'm sure the kiddos will be coming soon to—"

"Knock knock!" Aurora sighed, course she saw Aidan most of the week. But at least they always had a different approach when they were at work.
