Title: Quidditch Holiday, IV Challenge: Holyhead Word Count: 100 Note: this is yet another snippet from the Motherless Child series, where Snape and Lupin marry and adopt a young werewolf. Their son, John, is about ten.
“Why is Uncle Harry so angry?” John flinched as Potter, the lion on his Gryffindor t-shirt all but bristling, strode past his collected in-laws. Ginny, lips thinned, shook her head and turned back to her sister-in-law and teammate.
“I've no idea, darling,” murmured Remus, smoothing the boy's hair into place. His fingers shaped the old Order code: glad he controls legilimency.
Severus crooked a finger in response: yes. “Sometimes adults fight. It's the way of the world.”
Ginny and Angelina laughed over a private joke. The rest of the Weasleys did not look pleased.
