Prompt – Character A berates Character B for putting themselves in danger.

"Honestly Ron, what were you thinking, rushing in like that," berated Hermione to a very tired looking Ron, who fingered the bandage wrapped around his head.

" Thought I was saving my best mate," defended Ron, with a look at Harry, " and I'm fine, love."

"It was the Cruciatus curse," she shrieked, "and you're not fine, you have a bandage wrapped around your head!"

" Maybe it's to keep his brain from falling out," suggested Ginny, with a grin. Ignoring Hermione's hostile look, she turned to her boyfriend. "You okay?"

"Meh," shrugged Harry.

"Right then, what's for dinner, I'm starved?" asked Ginny, standing and stretching.

"That's it? Our boyfriends just got out of St Mungo's, they said Ron could have had a brain bleed, and you just ask Harry if he's okay, and he shrugs and you're done?" cried Hermione in surprise.

"Could have being the optimal word here, Hermione," replied Ginny, " besides, Harry hates fussing. 'Meh' is better than 'fine'."

" I hate when he says that," agreed Ron, and next to Ginny, Harry rolled his eyes.

"Besides, I plan to give his body a good going over when we go to bed," winked Ginny, as Harry smirked.

" I hate when she says that," said Ron, teasing.

Harry laughed, then sobered as a teary Hermione looked upset with them all. He had never done well with girls who cry.

"Hermione, Ron and I are aurors, we're going to get hurt sometimes. But you know Ron has my back and I have his. Today could have gone a lot worse, but Ron was brilliant. Did he tell you it was his plan of attack we used? That we captured the whole gang, thanks to his brilliant plan? Mate, I don't know how you came up with it, but well done, even Robards was pleased," said Harry.

" I know, did you see that shit eating grin on his face," replied Ron.

"Ron, that's brilliant," said Ginny.

"Ron, I'm so proud of you, well done," said Hermione.

" Always the tone of surprise," mocked Ron, lovingly.
