Andromeda Tonks: disappointing mothers since 1971 (dromatic) wrote in rebel_rebel,
Andromeda sighed. There really wasn't anything they could do in order to prevent the people they cared most about from coming after them. On the one hand, it really did mean a lot that they had people in their lives who loved them so much. ..But Andromeda didn't want anything to happen to them. "You think Remus would do something stupid? I really thought he'd be the one to keep Sirius and your dad from trying to play the hero."
A startling realization suddenly struck her. "She has my journal," she said quietly. "We have to get it back from her. She could use it." Andromeda stood up from her seat in the window and paced to the bed. "She could use it, pretend to be me, and lure them somewhere. I don't know if she's thought of anything like that yet, but I don't want to risk that she hasn't, either. And if nothing else, if we get it back we can at least send them a message of our own to say we're alive." Andromeda didn't want to think of what her sister would do to them if she found they'd taken her journal back, but even worse, she didn't want to think about the harm her sister could cause by keeping it.
She didn't like the idea of involving her daughter in this at all, but they were really running low on options. "If we can come up with a way to do this without having to resort to that, it'd be preferable. Otherwise, we might not have a choice. I look enough like her that it might fool them, maybe.. Just give me a moment to think about this."
