"So. It's now a museum?"
"Funny, isn't it." The line of tourists outside the Shrieking Shack had started well before the official opening time. Three vendors were selling wolf-shaped balloons and "official souvenir programmes," while another had set up a small cart that sold hot food. "That they chose the Shrieking Shack. One would think they'd have a separate building, but this one - "
"One hopes they removed the blood stains from the floor."
"At least they know it's not haunted."
"That would not be true if we actually had died." Severus rubbed at his neck.
"But we didn't." Remus kissed Teddy on the cheek. "I was worried about poor Dora, but - "
"I know, Remus." Severus touched the infant's silky head. "I hope he doesn't suffer because I'm not her."
"Of course not. Children need love more than anything else. As long as we tell him about her, he'll be fine." Remus shifted his son onto his hip. "Here's Kingsley. I think they're getting started."
The Minister of Magic stepped up to a podium and cleared his throat. "Ladies and gentlemen. It is with mixed feelings that we dedicate this museum to the late War - "

Date: 2007-10-26 07:28 pm (UTC)That Severus it concerned that he's not Teddy's mother...so sweet. I like Remus wanting to be sure Dora is remembered by Teddy.
And I can't remember for the life remember the name of the artist who drew your icon. I love her stuff and would like to see more of it again.
Thanks for sharing!
