It's late and you're scared. You know there's a war raging on and you're doing everything you can to help. You want to fight. But you need to take care of your boys. Mothering is what you do best. You sit and wait and wait each day, hoping nothing will happen. You fear death. You fear death taking those you love. You cry and you howl and then you stand up and you face it head on. And then your brothers are gone. Then you know that if death can take them, it can take anyone. You'll live to protect.

You're the best they've got. Constant vigilance. You fight hard and you're rewarded by your reputation. You're torn when you can use Unforgivables but know that that will help you win one of these days. You're fighting. You're losing yourself and you're losing the war. You come home every day and you're tired. They think you've stopped loving them. You haven't. You just need to win. The one day you come home to find a Death Eater ambush has taken them. It's not fair but its war. You'll fight again. You'll preach constant vigilance. It will never ease the pain.

It's cold. It's raining. Daddy always said that the Pink Tailed Hollydinks only came out in the rain. You look around but can't see any. You only see the colour black. You see Daddy crying. You're young but you think you understand. Mummy's not here anymore. Mummy was beautiful, like the spring. Her flowers were always in bloom. You'll plant some flowers tomorrow. And maybe you'll plant them the year after. Maybe one day you'll stop. Maybe one day you will realise there's a hole in your heart and the Nargles will stay away. Maybe you won't be loony anymore.

It's not that you're afraid all the time. You're just afraid of failing. You've always been the clumsy one, the hopeless grandson. You're terrified of your Gran but you're more terrified of what you'd become without her there. You visit the hospital and try to smile when your mother hands you more wrappers. They are your parents. You love them but you've suffered enough. The War took them and now you're thinking about it. They were your parents and they fought for freedom. It's vengeance. It's justice. It's bravery. You'll fight for it because it's right and you're a Gryffindor.

It's the loneliness that kills you. It stabs at your heart and hacks away. You've always been different. You're pink lemonade. You're a novelty and that's why you're nobody's girl. You fight, you protect, you train but most importantly, you love. You go from green to blue to orange to red to yellow to pink. You smile but it's never enough. You love with everything you have. And one day you can't change anymore. It's done. You're protected by it now. Its silvery fangs call to you. You want the moon. You will always answer his call. You need it.
