Character: Andromeda Black-Tonks and Cedric Diggory
Cedric was a bit nervous about his tea date with Andromeda. His father seemed much relieved to have him going and getting a check-up with a qualified healer, and yet a bit hesitant. Of course, Cedric knew why his father was hesitant. He had been the apple of Amos Diggory's eye... so much of Amos's happieness rested upon Cedric's broad shoulders. And now, he was back from the dead and of course his father was terrified he'd go away again. Terrified that this odd state of being was temporary, gone in the blink of an eye. And truly, how could Cedric feel any different? Though, he reckoned death was far less difficult for the dead than for the living.
He dressed deliberately for his tea time appointment... a nice set of robes, and his one piece of school time nostalgia, his house scarf... canary yellow with black stripes, emblazoned with the Hufflepuff house crest. His hand lingered on the scarf for a moment, feeling the wool under his fingers. This moment in his life... and really, every since his apparent resurrection, was surreal to him. He'd been dead... and now, he was living again. What Roger had replied to his journal post was likely true... this was unnatural... but what could be done about it? He was here now, and not likely to give himself over for re-killing... if that was even possible!
Finally the time came, and Amos fidgetted over him for another moment... Cedric felt a bit childish with his father's attentions, and yet he couldn't bring himself to stop the man. He'd felt so much pain, how could he rob him of this second chance to be the father he loved being? He smiled one more time and chuckled. "I'll be fine, Dad. Be home in a flash, yeah?" he smiled, giving Amos another hug before stepping into the floo. He disappeared in a flash of green flame, and reappeared at the home of Andromeda Tonks. Clearing his throat, he announced himself politely; "Hello? It's Cedric Diggory, come for tea." as he waited for her in the floo.
