A/N: I would imagine that if Bellatrix had any tenderness within her, it could only be expressed to her little sister. But, in all honesty, I'm not sure the Dementors have left enough of Bella intact to be able to enjoy sisterly play with Narcissa.
Valkyries: In Norse mythology valkyrie (Old Norse valkyrja "chooser of the slain") is one of a host of female figures who choose who will die in battle. The valkyries bring their chosen who have died bravely in battle to the afterlife hall of the slain, Valhalla, ruled over by the god Odin... (from Wikipedia: Valkyries)
1. My Pretty Baby
"You should be honoured to be hostess for the Dark Lord."
"All want is my family, my home, my life, all returned to me."
Bellatrix's face softened, her expression tender. "You always were soft, Cissy. I was the strong one, the fighter. Andy was the clever one. And you were the pretty one. My pretty baby." She stroked Narcissa's hair, her palm resting tenderly on her sister's cheek. "I won't let anyone hurt you. My pretty baby."
Narcissa leaned into her sister's touch, and squeezed her eyes tightly shut, as though wishing reality gone could really make it go away.
2. Reaping the Souls of Dead Heroes
"Let's sleep together tonight. Where's your hairbrush? I'll brush your hair."
"Do you really want Lucius that angry? And I should be brushing your hair, it's nothing but knots."
"Just for sleep, silly. And I'm the big sister, so I'm brushing your hair."
"Are you going to tuck me in and tell me scary stories?"
Laughing, Bellatrix said, " Maybe. I know, let's play 'Valkyries In The Chandeliers' tonight."
Narcisssa smiled, her first real smile in months. "Bella, we're too old to fly broomsticks inside."
"Silly, Cissy. We could never be too old to reap the souls of dead men together."
Hi Lillian. When you return from your break, could you please make a "char: bellatrix" tag? Cheers.
