Trying to get back in the game, just a bit of a tease I know, please enjoy~!

Eventually the majority of the adults left the room, and as the remainder all stared each other down the atmosphere became incredibly uncomfortable with the...everything no one actually wanted to address still floating about.

Realizing no one else was going to say anything Dora spoke up, "So..."

Dani, hunched between Harry and Hermione, both of who had arms thrown across her shoulders, sighed in tired despondence, "So..."

Hermione after a time decided then to witch up, if for no other reason than to break the needlessly tedious silence, an action which Dani, Dora, and Harry were all appreciative of as they turned to her as she stood up.

Pinching the bridge of her nose while shaking her head she spoke up, "So... going by what Sirius went over we're going to rely on a renegade werewolf arms dealer to supply illicit soviet firearms to prep our wizard for what is arguably considered an illegally bonded blood sport tournament. A werewolf whose name is Remus Lupin, who operates out of a lodge named Wolf Lake, and no one has ever commented on any of the obviously idiotically ironic iconography entailed up until I pointed it out in an unironic manner just now?"

Dani sighed, then nodded, "Yeah... that is about the sum of it 'Mia..."

Harry took in a deep breath, then let it out while muttering, "Bugger..."

They remained silent for a time, then Dora dropped down and wrapped her arms around her cousins, and yes at this point Hermione counted amongst them.

"I'm taking you all back to my flat, we're ordering pizza and watching cheesy 80s movies, all while we cuddle on the couch."

Dani paused, shot a glance at Harry and Hermione, and then they all shot out shy smiles.

Big sis Dora hath spoken, and her rule would not be ignored.

The next morning they all ended back up at the Tonks family home and went about their normal rituals, which mostly involved Andromeda frying up breakfast, Ted singing in the shower, and Dora trying to summon god from her tepid mug of coffee.

This same old same old was interrupted when Harry entered the kitchen and pipped up with, "Auntie, can we talk?"

Pausing a moment as she was stirring the scrambled eggs, Andromeda closed her eyes and took in a deep breath while nodding, "Of course son. Let me finish this first?"

Harry nodded then walked forward while offering a hand, "Can I help?"

Andromeda smiled as she handed him her fork, "Of course, take care of the eggs, I'll handle the bacon."

When the food was prepared Dora had already passed out on the couch, Ted and Andromeda sat across from Harry, Dancia, and Hermione, and they dug into the gathered food with gusto.

After they had all eaten their fill, Harry spoke up, no longer feeling the need to be even remotely subtle, "Auntie...what accord of '89 were you talking about to the Headmaster back in his office?"

At that Andromeda sighed, gathered the dirty plates from the table, took them to the sink, and began to run hot water over them as she added soap to it.

Eventually she shut off the water, turned around, and stared directly at Dancia in such a manner that had said young witch freeze in honest to the Morrigan fear.

Breaking her gaze from her niece she turned back to the boy in question as she continued speaking, "Harry, your rescue from the muggle world was not...subtle. Not that Dancia hadn't tried to do her best mind," She paused to glance at her much more pale than normal niece as she continued on, "Dani worked with what she had at hand. It was just that...well your relatives being driven into insanity by a house elf after your disappearance had not gone... unnoticed."

Dani froze as her eyes widened.

Oh.

Shit.

What the hell did she allow Dobby to do...

A few moments later Harry spun to face his girlfriend while he growled out, "Dani, you promised not to do anything to them!"

She met his gaze evenly, then shot him a sheepish grin, "I promised I wouldn't do anything to them Harry, truly!" He stared at her a few moments, then she averted her gaze while toeing the ground with her left foot, "I also didn't tell Dobby not to do anything to them..."

Harry sighed while shooting her a fond smile, "Dani..."

She wrapped her arms around herself and turned away with a loud huff, "I'm not apologizing."

Then Dani froze when Harry wrapped his arms around her, resting his chin atop her head while letting out a light chuckle.

"You...are such a Black..."

Dancia preened a bit at that.

They stayed like that, content for a time, when Harry eventually spoke up to the now thoroughly bemused Andromeda, "Now seriously Auntie, the hell happened in '89?"
