"--My auntie's gay." Silence. Ophelia has stopped moving altogether, arm half frozen in position from where she had been trying to replace Hitchhikers Guide on the bookshelf. "...I'm sorry?" "And single!" He adds, as if that clears everything up. Almost tragically, it does. She turns around stiffly, trying not to let her absolute panic show on her already ashen face. "Are you," she begins, calmly, "Trying to set me up with Juno Langmann?" "Oh? You know my aunt?" Yes. She did. °°°°°°°° After eighteen years of living alone in the city and running from her problems, Ophelia moves back into her hometown after receiving an invitation to run the high school library her family had once helped to open and fund. It seems like a good idea too-- until she meets somebody who seems determined to make her life hell... Meanwhile Milo just wants his favourite (and only) Aunt to be happy. He knows how worried his parents are, and he's seen the way she stares at couples in the street. When the hot new librarian arrives he knows exactly who to set his Aunty up with... If only they would both just listen to him!

"You're just like Dad," Toby said. The silence that had followed had been so heavy. Ethan had stood up from where he'd been hiding behind the open refrigerator door and peered over at Toby and his face paled. Francis, without his hearing aids, had caught the harsh words that formed Toby's lips and he stared, eyes wide, at his second-oldest brother. Jasper froze. Toby stepped closer. "That's right, Jaz. You're just like Dad." Jasper looked up at Toby. Their eyes bore into one another. "Fuck you," Jasper said and he'd pushed up from the table - tripped over his own two feet - and gone down. Edgar's dead. Jasper's in AA-after being told by Toby that he doesn't want to see him until he smartens up. Now, with just him, his two younger brothers and their Mum, Ethan and Francis will barely even look at him, and Toby feels like his life is falling apart. Again. [Inspired by the chapter 'Talk Later' in The Marauders by Pengiwen Order Of The Phoenix Part 3]
