That's Absurd
"Oh, Astoria, why must you joke over a matter like this?"
"I'm not joking, Mother. It's true that Luna and I are together. Yes, as a couple; a romantic couple." She drew the blonde girl closer, her arm slinking around Luna Lovegood's wait in a protective manner.
"But… that's… that's absurd!" Astoria's mother cried.
"Why?"
"Because… well because you're not supposed to marry another woman!"
"Who says?"
"Your father… me!"
Astoria looked at Luna, whose smiling face had somewhat disappeared to one of concern. She then turned back to her mother. "Well, luckily for you, your saying does not affect my decision."
"Astoria…."
"I've made my choice and that's final. I did the decent thing and inform you, but you can kindly inform whoever you may have planned for me to marry – unless it is Luna – that the wedding is off!"
Astoria didn't wait for her mother's response, instead turning on her heel and dragging Luna away.
"She's not too happy," Luna commented mildly once they reached outside of the Greengrass property.
Astoria simply pulled Luna in and kissed her hard on the mouth. "But I am," Astoria said, smiling. "And that's all that matters."
