There is something I need to mention here:
In the last chapter (And in chapter 26: Poetic Justice) there was mention of body shaming of the Dursleys, (and a few about Jim Potter in chapter 26 by Severus Snape) but let me tell you, I DO NOT encourage body shaming of any kind. if I have offended any of my readers.. please understand that it was just a biased thought of a pissed-off mother who loathes the sight of her son's abusers. (and another victim of body shaming, Severus, who would definitely be biased against his childhood abusers).
PS: Thank you SquealingDumpling & AndrasMinaliSparta (from AO3) for helping me with the German translation 🤗
Couldn't have done it so perfectly without your help ❤

"Bartyyy!!" Hadrianus screamed in delight, throwing himself on the arm of his favorite Godfather.
Barry let out an 'oomph' as the child speed towards him like a blur and collided with him. Merlin! He is growing like a weed! Look at him already reaching up to his upper abdomen! "Hey, Kiddo!" Barty laughed, accepting the enthusiastic hug. They hadn't seen each other for almost two weeks, and that had been the longest they were separate. Though Barty is now in Hogwarts, he has plans to return home every weekend. So he hopes he will be able to see his Godson at least once every week. They high-fived, which was soon followed by their secret handshake that was only between him and Barty, not even The Dark Lord knew about it!
(Okay, maybe mum knows as well, given she had been right there when they were creating the handshake while muttering the whole time how Tom had adopted two hatchlings without consulting with her. But she doesn't count because Barty doesn't know she is actually a woman under the Maledictus curse, not just a simple snake!)
"I missed you!" Hadrianus said excitedly, as always having no problem confessing his true feelings which made Barty's heart warm, "Let's do the next vacation in summer so you can join us!"
"Hell yeah!" Barty widened his eyes with equal enthusiasm, "How about France next time?"
"Yes!"
"I will ask our Lord's permission and make arrangements. Oh, speaking of which... Winky?"
Winky popped in with a small package which she gave to Barty who left with the package. Hadrianus brightens up seeing her, she had followed Barty to Hogwarts so he hadn't seen her as well. "Hello Winky, how are you?" He asked warmly.
"Winy is well, thank you, little Master." She said brightly on seeing him, she liked the little Master, he had been nothing but so kind to her, and she missed making him warm and savory snacks, "Winky brought some treatos for little Master." Winky handed him something warm wrapped in a paper towel, which Hadrianus opens to find half a dozen strawberry scones. "Oh, it smells delicious." Hadrianus takes one and bites into it, savoring the rich taste immensely, "I love it, thank you, Winky."
"You is welcome, little Master." Winky popped away. Hadrianus savored the rest of the scone as Barty is yet to return from whatever he was doing with the package. But just as he was about to start the second scone, Bailey popped in with a determined look.
"Yes yes, I know. No treats before breakfast. Here," He gave her the paper towel full of the rest of the scones, making her beam brightly as she popped away with it. His father had instructed her to stop him from consuming too much sweet at once, even though he can argue that the treats they bring are barely considered 'sweets' as it doesn't contain any typical sweets. The Elves always make sure to make the treats with ingredients that are not bad for his health and Creature.
