Author's Note: I am writing this because I am a terrible writer and I am trying to practice. I needed a break from my major projects so I thought fan fiction

would be a nice way to practice. Since this is practice I would be thrilled if you could constructively tell me what worked on didn't work (if you have time for it :D ).

WARNING: these are practice snippets, please do not get too attached.

"Was it too high a price to pay?" she''ll ask later, her face a mask of somberness.

He'll be holding the baby, whose tiny green eyes bore into him. "I would have paid anything for Harry, anything."
