Tonks - finally out of the hospital
Who: Tonks, Teddy, and open to those who'd be, or stop by, Rosmerta's (hired out) cottage
Where: Home; possibly if somebody drags her and Teddy out of the house - around Hogsmeade
When: Monday
Rating: G for now
By the time they discharged her form St. Mungo's, Tonks was fairly bouncing off the walls. But she finally managed to persuade them that the problems with balance and tripping were the way she was, and the reason for, not a consequence of, that hit on the head.
She also made a very, very careful note to absolutely avoid hitting her head in the future. This stay had been worse even than the one after the battle at the Department of Mysteries, and that one had been nightmarish enough...
OK, this one wasn't worse, just because there were no news of relatives lost.
But other than that, it was worse, because now there was Teddy. Or rather, there wasn't Teddy around her.
Which definitely reasoned out the first thing she did when she was released - she rushed to pick up her son, and went, finally, home. She said she wanted to home and didn't allow to be detained.
It hadn't taken that long to start thinking of the cottage in Hogsmeade as home. But that's what it was. The space that was hers, even if rented and shared. She had all the space she needed to stretch her arms out, and nobody to tell her what to do.
For a while, she just sat (or dashed around, of course) taking care of Teddy. He seemed happy to see her - he was happy to see her, considering how he managed to at least approximately match her hair colours as many times as she changed them. And considering the amount of interesting things he managed to accomplish in any short period of time.
He was claiming her attention all right.
And she loved it.
Putting her room and so forth in order? Shopping and such? Checking on Millicent's work? They could wait a little.
But she was very much open for anyone who might show up to talk with her, as long as they didn't mind sharing her attention with a bright-coloured, energetic, curious, loud, adorable toddler.
