Time turned

(A/N im hope the format is staying if not oh well ha, enjoy!)

Once they managed to get Persephone back to the kitchen the weather had once again picked back up. Hermione, Neville and Draco all had to return home and Harry asked if he could go with either of them for 'guy' time. Draco polightly declined stating his father would probably not be pleased to see him. But Neville gave him a grin. The boys dispelled in a flash of green flames. Only the girls were in the living room at this point. Hermione felt bad she had to leave but said she would try and come back as soon as she could. She gave them all quick and brief hugs before Folly popped her away.
"Well I know I can stay as long as I want, as long as father knows where I am." Daphne spoke softly and Tracey agreed. "Well you're welcome to stay if you'd like. I'm just gonna try and decorate the walls."
A few moments and two floo calls later the three girls all sat around the now normal fire. "So what do you want to do?" Daphne asked looking at the walls. "I don't have any idea. All I know is the walls are way to white. It needs life." Tracey giggled and called out for, Persephone assumed, was an elf named "Sinnet!" A taller female elf popped next to her. "Yes Miss?" She gave a soft curtsey. "Sinnet. I need all paint. Fabric and assesories from my craft room!" Daphne moaned. "Seph I think you just summoned an evil entity." She deadpanned. "Why?"

"The craft room is a horror of a place. You better set restrictions now."
After everything had elf popped into the kitchen living room and part way down the hall, Persephone could see why. Every color of the rainbow and probably some only known to elves or that strange snail she remembered reading about long ago, were skattered about. Tracey with a cackle began to wander the rows of boxes, clear tubs and stacks of cloth. "Err ..Tracey?" Persephone called out but she was ignored. "Hmm… yes this!" She tossed a random bucket over a stack of boxes, which Daphne caught with a grunt. "Paint?" Daphne called over. "You know it! Heads up!" She tossed another can, dpahne had to quickly put down the first, to catch the second. She did this four more times before rolls of fabric and supplies flew over head. "And that should be good for now! Sinnet! Please put this back thank you!" With a loud POP it was gone except what Daphne had around her.

Said gir was panting softly. There were greens, black, white, purples and oddly enough red.
Tracey rubbed her hands together, her eyes looking from wall to wall. "With your permission." She pleaded with excitement. "A few rules." Tracey frowned. "Leave Harry and my room alone for now. Otherwise make it tasteful and have fun." Daphne gasped at her. "Are you sure?" Persephone nodded. "If we don't like it we can always paint it white and start over." Tracey squealed and crushed her for a moment before a shadow fell over her face. Fire lit in her eyes. "Sweet Merlin Seph what did you do?" Persephone only shrugged.

Dpahne and Persephone were now sitting with a chess board between the two of them. It was their fifth round and Persephone had yet to get the drop on her. She could give a good challenge to Ron. She thought while moving her rook. Daphne smirked before moving her own queen in front of her king. "Checkmate."
"Damn!"
"Again?"
"Maybe in a bit, my head hurts. And we should check on Tracey. It's been too quiet." The duo got up and walked down the hall to the only room with bright light coming from it. "Tracey?" Daphne called out as they entered and gasped. The first guest room Tracey had decided to start on was ceiling to floor in purples. The furniture had been moved out of the room. Leaving it bare. Tracey stood, face covered in paint as she stared at a half painted portrait of Alrgon. "Holy shit!" Persephone called out before she was head slapped by Daphne. "Language, I know Hermione is t here but there are still ladies present." Persephone grinned. "Sorry. But my Gods Tracey that is amazing! He looks so life like!" Tracey had given them both a half hearted nod, returning to the painting and adding more of the shaded grey and black to the wall in the right places.

"I change my mind. I definitely want you to do my room. Where did you learn to do this?" Tracey began to gumm, tuning them out and they quickly got the hint walking out of the room again.
"To answer your question." Daphne started as they returned to the fire. "Tracey's paternal grandfather was quite the artist. He taught her at a young age how to capture what you have seen and put it to cavus. And a wall is just a giant cavus."
"Good point. I had ideas for the rooms too. Knowing how many of us there are, I want to change up how the beds are." Daphne hummed. "That would be nice though I don't mind sharing."
"Sharing for now while we're small. Can you imagine sharing beds when we're the size of Tonks?" Daphne only swallowed. "Anyway. The room Tracey is in and the one next to it are both the guest rooms right? So I want to put two sets of bunk beds in each one. So we have four beds in each one. And the final room can be whatever. A work out room maybe?"
"Work out?"
"Yeah! In America most schools and even some homes have gyms. And in those gyms they have areas made to tone your muscles with weights. Most is made without electricity so it won't interfere with magic." Daphne scratched the top of her head, her blonde hair doing soft waves. "If you say so."

"They even have places you can go to for that exact thing." Daphne shook her head. "It's all very strange." Persephone only grinned. With help from Folly, he was able to dismantle the full beds and store them away, and I'm it's place he would buy bed frames that would suit Persephone's image. "This could be fun. We should go and buy new bedding at some point."
"Go?"
"Well yeah. Oh wait I forgot you e never been to Harrods have you?"
"What's a Harrods?" Persephone gave a soft chuckle. "You'll see. I'll floo Tonks and see if she's free tomorrow. And this time I'll make sure Hermione is aware." She stood and walked off not noticing a soft glare from Daphne as she did so.

Tracey hugged loudly as the finished with the first room. The light and dark purple blended together almost seamlessly, Alrgon looked fierce and snarling.
"And it only took me…" her stomach growled interrupting her. "Til lunch time! Not bad. Best go see and make sure Daphne isn't doing anything bad." She walked out to see Daphne and Persephone at the table just barely serving themselves. "Oh nice!" She ran over and pulled a sandwich to herself and taking a large bite. "Mmmm" was all she could make noise wise. "I'm guessing the first room is done?" Tracey nodded. "Yeah, I'm gonna work on the next one after lunch." She said mouth slightly full and Daphne blanched. "Chew Tracey. No one wants to see that." Tracey in return opened her mouth showing Daphne her partially chewed bite. "Ew Trace! Seriously?" She only hummed and continued eating.
"So tomorrow we're going to Harrods." Persephone started. And Tracey hummed again. "Mkay. What's that?" She took a deep gulp of her drink. "It's what the muggles call a department store." Daphne spoke looking at Persephone who nodded a yes but with slightly shrugged shoulders. "What's that?"
"A store that has almost everything in it."
"Mkay, why are we going there?"
"Do you mind!?" Daphne lost her temper slightly but it only made Tracey smirk at her friend. "We're going to be as Persephone worded it. Picking out our bedding." Tracey accepted that and went back for another bite before it clicked. "Wait shopping?!" Both nodded and she grinned. "Yes!"

Tracey was left to do her thing and Daphne and Persephone returned to chess. "So I have to ask, what is your story really." Persephone blinked a few times. "What do you mean?"
"I mean tell me about you. I know you woke up in diagon without any memory of what happened. But that can't all be correct right?" Persephone went quiet, only moving a pawn on the board. It's soft clack echoed. What do I do? Her thoughts must have reflected on her face cause Daphne sat a bit closer and looked at her intently. "I don't know what I can and cannot say." She spoke honestly. "Well, I know something about you having seer ability. Can you talk about that?" Persephone hesitantly set the piece she had picked up back down. "Maybe. Depends on what you want to know."
"I just want to know you. Anything you can tell me."
"My favorite color is grey." Daphne blinked. "Really?" Persephone hummed. "Mine is a pale green, like the color the grass turns when fall sets in." Persephone sighed internally. Maybe she could avoided this a bit longer. "I love apple pie with a huge scoop of chocolate ice cream on top." She continued. "I know that is not normal but I just like it I guess." Daphne hummed, moving her piece. "I love anything gummy. Especially this candy my father got from one of his trips. It was a gummy bear with jelly on the inside of it. Each little one I'd bite the head off and laugh while squeezing out the jelly inside. Yes I know, Tracey used to go e me that exact look." Persephone blinked and let her face relax from the shock and horror on it. "I love black and white movies." She spoke softly almost as if mentioning them would let her watch one again.

"Well the only movie I have seen is the star wars thing Tracey is so obsessed with." Persephone grinned. "Well then we must go see one tomorrow too! Make a whole day of it." Daphne chuffed and gave the other girl an eye roll. Sometimes only sometimes. She liked the energy Persephone had. "Now back to what I asked." Persephone deflated. "Well… I guess I can bring this up… at the end of this first year, Dumbledore will leave the castle and… well in the vision. It was Harry, Hermione and Ronald Weasley. They went to the third floor and… well…"
"Ronald?" Persephone gave a shallow nod. "They had to defeat these so called traps in order to save the thing Dumbledore put there." Daphne sat back and rubbed her eyes. "What was it?"
"I can't say. It's suppose to be all secretive, but if Harry doesn't get it…it could give lord Voldemort his life back…"
