I know, I know, my chapters are short, this is a part of my style, sadly, hope you'll like it nonetheless.
– What are you working on?, Harry asked to Percy shortly after their family supper.
Harry wasn't feeling like talking lively around the fire so he had prefer to approach the only one working.
– The usual… boring stuff, let out Percy with a sight.
– … Is it really that boring? I mean, you work on that all day.
– Oh, it isn't boring for me. Well, it's still job, but it's more my cup of tea than flying on a broom.
– So…?
– You're really interested by what I'm doing?
Harry let out a small sight.
– I don't think I want to be an auror anymore, explained Harry in a murmur. They will call for my help anyway if another dark lord rise, and I will help, but if I can avoid meaningless fights, you know…
Percy was a bit surprised to learned that, no, not really surprised by that, he was surprised that he might be the first to whom Harry had talked to for that.
– I thought that even if you had been shocked, you still wanted to do that, as you still train, replied Percy in a low voice.
– Maybe I've became a bit paranoiac…
– … I'm writing my conclusion of a few studies concerning new laws about creature's rights, he decided to tell him.
– Is it really getting better?, asked Harry, concerned.
– Yes, surely not as fast as you would like, but yes, affirmed the older one. So… do you have any idea of what you want to do?
– No… everything seems so pointless…
– It's too soon then… don't push it too hard, you have plenty of time.
– One year, replied Harry sternly.
– You have enough money to wait more than that before making a choice, Harry. You could even just take care of your Foundation and that's all.
– I'm not interested in that, it was all Mione's idea. A great idea, but not one I'm interested of taking care, she has more fun than me doing its management anyway.
Percy was at a loss, not knowing what to say to his little brother's friend. During his dismay, Harry had installed himself just beside him and was now reading his report.
– You can continue, you know?, Harry told him. I'm not gonna be an hindrance.
– Oh… o-okay…
