She beams brightly, reaching up to brush her fingers over his cheek. "Gold's brilliant," she says.

Remus nods again and offers her a small, nearly pained smile as he asks, "White or yellow? Or both?"

The auror's brows knit. "Remus," she murmurs, "it doesn't matter to me. It could be gold ribbon, and I'd be happy with it," she adds with a gentle smile.

"Gold ribbon," he repeats with a quiet breath of laughter.

He returns a few days later, inclining his head then offering her a small, square box. Tonks straightens at the sight of it, eyes widening a bit and Remus says neutrally, "It's nothing grand."

She carefully takes the box, fingers lingering on his for a moment as she glances up at him at his words. "I'm sure it's brilliant," she says with a quiet smile. Then she takes a deep breath and flips the box open.

"You said gold ribbon would do."

*lips quirk into a faint grin*

*wipes her hand over her face then rests her chin in her palm as she glances around thoughtfully at his words*
*silent for a moment, then lets out a huff of laughter, starting to grin a bit more easily up at him*
You'd risk cleaning my flat?

*more seriously, but with a sincere smile*
Reckon that'd be easier, yeah? I mean, easier on Mum. *falters* Since she doesn't want to attend at all.

	chuckles Maybe you should invest in less homicidal boots? nods once I'm a Gryffindor. We like to risk life and limb in risk endeavors. walks back to her and puts a hand on her shoulder Then we shouldn't force it upon her. We cannot expect her to pretend to be something she is not, Dora. It's not fair to anyone. Things will adjust in time. (Reply to this) (Parent)
