"Don't go corrupting Hen, alright boys?" Victoria told the twins who had immediately taken Henry by the hand as soon as they'd arrived and the three teenagers in the manor had introduced themselves to the boy.

"Why do you call me Hen? Isn't my name Harry?" Harry asked his aunt, curious about the fact.

"It's not. Harry was just a nickname we called you. Your actual full name is Henry James Sirius Potter. You were named after my Great-Grandfather."

"I never knew that." Ha-Henry said silently, sad about the fact he never even knew his real name.

"Hey, it's okay." Percy said, putting his hand on the boy's shoulder in comfort. "Why don't we go to the library for a bit? We can teach you all about the Wizarding World before you head off to Hogwarts."

"I'd really like that." Henry said with a relieved smile. "Also what's Hogwarts?"

That had the three laugh as they led Henry towards the library, explaining what Hogwarts was as they went.

Victoria smiled at their retreating backs before her face contorted into a hard line as she made her way towards her office. It was time to get some plans started.

As soon as she entered the home office, she shot a wistful look at the other desk in the room before she headed towards her own. She slowly relaxed in her chair for a moment before she straightened her back and called her trusty house elf "Kandy!"

"Mistress Vicky called?" Kandy said as soon as she popped into the room.

"Yes Kandy, could you please call the house elves here in the manor and at Potter Manor?" Victoria said knowing she needed to talk to the house elves that were taking care of the two manors she was currently in charge of.

Kandy nodded and as soon as she snapped her fingers, nine house elves appeared in her office. They all bowed their heads and greeted her with "Mistress."

"Hello everyone. I just thought I'd call all of you here to thank you once more for all that you've done for the houses of Prewett and Potter respectively. Please keep up the good work, and you may make yourselves a coat each as a reward for the work you've done these last few years." Victoria said, getting excited looks from them all.

Bolt, the head elf of Potter Manor, and Biskey, the Prewett Manor head elf, came forward and thanked her.

"There is nothing to thank me for, you all deserve this." With a final "Thank you Mistress." The elves all popped away except Bolt and Kandy.

"Yes Bolt?" She asked, wondering what her father's most trusted elf would need from her.

"What would you like us to do with the Manor, Mistress?" The elf asked, wondering what would happen to the great Potter Manor while Master Henry and Mistress Vickie both lived in Prewett Manor.

"Keep it clean and care for Mother's gardens. I do believe Henry will want to go there when he hears about it and I'd like him to see the Manor in its glory. He'll also need the books in the library to train as the Heir. I'll take him there in a few days to start his training before he goes to Hogwarts."

"As you wish Mistress." Bolt said before bowing his head and popping away.

"Now then…" Victoria said, sighing to herself before she pulled out a piece of parchment and a self-inking quill and started writing. Kandy snapped her fingers and a cup of Victoria's favourite tea appeared on her desk. Victoria sent a thankful smile at her elf before she held the cup and took a sip of the Rooibos tea. She hummed quietly, appreciating the nutty and vanilla-like flavour, before setting the cup back on the saucer and going back to writing her letter.

"Kandy will come get you when dinner is finished." Kandy said, waiting for a reply.

"Yes, thank you Kandy." Victoria said distractedly before she remembered something. "Oh, Kandy. Could you tell Terry and Perry that they are in charge of taking care of the twins and Henry respectively? Tell them to keep an eye on them and if they need anything, could they lead them here. Also, assign Tinker to Percy, I believe those two will get along quite well."

"Of course Miss Vickie." Kandy said, smiling at Vickie before popping away to do just that. While Terry and Tinker were easy to find as they were a Prewett family elf, Perry was harder to track as she was a Potter family elf, but it wasn't anything Kandy couldn't do.

As soon as Kandy had popped away, Vickie focused back on the task at hand, writing a letter to Lord Arcturus Black about his grandson.

About an hour and a half after she'd started, she had sent the letter to Lord Black and was waiting for a reply. She'd also sent a letter to Gringotts requesting to meet with her family's account manager in two days, the Potter's account manager -her accounts were still part of her birth family's accounts- to discuss the vaults' state and see how she will manage those, she also requested four inheritance tests to be prepared and a purge room just in case. She was just going through the Prewett Family finances when her office door opened. When she looked up, she found her nephew peeking through the door at her and biting his lip in apprehension.

"Harry? What's wrong darling?" She asked, gesturing for him to come to her. He entered her office slowly, looking around in awe, and walked until he stood right next to her chair. When he was close enough to her, she stood up, taking his hand in her own as she led him to sit in one of the two seats that were in front of her desk, and she took the other.

"The twins and Percy got distracted by something so I thought I'd come and talk but I didn't know where you were, and when I decided to just start looking around this small person with big ears appeared and said she'd take me to you, so I followed her here." Harry explained hurriedly, fearing that he'd done something wrong.

"Yeah, Har-bear. That was a house elf, I asked her to take you here if needed anything. Her name is Perry. She used to take care of your dad when he was a kid." She told the boy, unconsciously using the nickname Aurelia used to use for the boy.

"Wait really? Also Har-bear?" Harry said in surprise, smiling at his aunt and feeling happy at being told a story about his dad.

"Yeah, your dad was a really big troublemaker when he was your age. Used to prank me all the time. And Har-bear was a nickname your mum would use for you, it seems I just subconsciously used it." Victoria said, smiling at the memories that came to mind when she thought of five-year-old James.

Victoria then continued to tell her nephew stories about his parents, making him laugh at the ridiculousness that his father and his friends used to get up to. She found it healing in a way, remembering the memories of her brother and telling them to his only son. They did that until Kandy popped in to call them for dinner, and Victoria hadn't gotten any work done after her nephew came to her office. She didn't care though; she was just happy Harry was happy and felt even slightly safe with her.

They went to the informal dining room, where they were met with the sight of two thirteen-year-olds sitting down and looking like they were seconds away from eating the utensils, Percy sitting next to them and looking for all intents and purposes like he was seconds away from bashing both their heads together. Harry and Vickie shared a laugh at that before they joined the twins at the table, where Victoria continued telling them stories from her childhood and answering their less serious questions. It was a very fun dinner for all of them, and they continued the stories when they went to relax in the sitting room a little before bed. She was glad she could brighten their day and make them laugh, and when she got rewarded with a big hug from each of her boys when she went to tuck them in for bed later that night, she felt like she was finally finding her footing again. She was happy to find that she fell asleep that night with a smile on her face and she didn't get any nightmares, which hadn't happened since her husband had died.
