Characters: Lavender Brown, the Brown family, Michael Corner; later Agatha Bole & Fenrir Greyback
Setting: Lavender's home, Eastbourne, 14 November 2003, 12:14pm
Rating: PG-13 for language and imagery
Summary: Checking on Lavender after the news, being surprised by Greyback.

Michael had had a pretty shitty morning overall. With Greyback breaking out which he knew would set Lavender on edge (and was obviously not good for any of them - not just Lavender), he wanted to do his best to make sure she was at least not losing her mind about all of this. She probably didn't feel safe at all and even if her flat was back in order, was she going to move back into it? He had no idea, but he had a feeling it probably was a no.

But besides that, he had the potions mucking people's minds up. Apparently instead of helping it was making the nightmares even worse for them which was both mind boggling and ridiculous at the same time. But most of all, it meant that Michael had fucked up royally and ruined things for his friends. He should have anticipated something like this happening, having the knowledge of potions that he did, but he was so keen on helping these people that he overlooked some of the most important things he should have done.

So he wasn't in the best of moods when he apparated to Eastbourne, but he had to try his best to comfort Lavender right now. He walked out of the wood behind their house and to the front door, knocking firmly on the front door and doing his best to put a smile on his face for Lavender and her family that he might be talking to on the way. Her needs were a bit more than his at the moment and he wanted to make sure he kept her from taking anymore of the potion while he was there anyhow.

It might not have been much, but she hadn't been particularly hopeful she just needed something. Lavender nodded, not entirely sold on the next time promise, but she didn't say anything. She didn't even say anything when Michael introduced himself as her friend - although the pause between the word was more telling. They were friends, but they were more than that regardless of if it was labelled or not. The feelings were still there, she still clung to him.

"I should call my mum or something, we need to get-" She paused. Matthew and Jessica were probably still there. And Lavender didn't have it in her to watch them break down over Baby Girl, not when she was just barely holding it together and not with the way she had stormed out of the house earlier.

"Is there anything else? That we can do or that you need?" Lavender needed this part to be over, she could be strong, but she also needed to breakdown and start to process everything again.

She looked at Michael and nodded. Yes, she'd had 'friends' like him before, including her former partner. "Auror Agatha Bole," she replied, not making an attempt to shake hands as he obviously had his hands full.

"What I need is for you to let me escort you home so I can do a proper check of the premises to make sure it's safe and that there are no tracking charms in place." She almost left it at that but she added more, anticipating potential protests. "Yes, I'm certain the two of you are more than competent, but we Aurors have a bit of extra training in this area. I promise, I'll be quick but thorough."
