Chapter 13
They were reading in the library when their dad stepped out the floo.
“I don’t care if you two want to set up house together, you’re legally adults. I do ask that you attend our end of summer barbeque at the Manor and that since Vivi is registered as a member of your House that you let her chose and decorate her own room so she has somewhere other then the manor to call home." Harry chided.
“Are you okay with us?” Teddy frowned.
Harry sighed, “I’m getting there. Draco’s been helpful with it. After all you’re not blood brothers and I can’t make you feel brotherly if you don’t. Now I heard from Andromeda that you’re Head Boy now Teddy congratulations.”
Teddy shrugged, “It’s what Scorpius wanted so I’m alright with it.”
“Well your grandmother was Head Girl in her day and so were my parents so it’s a family tradition you might say. More so then Weasley-Prewetts being Prefects.” Harry chuckled.
“We’ll be there.” Scorpius promised.
“Just uh for my sake keep displays of affection to hugs will you?” Harry asked nervously.
“Sure thing dad. And send Vivi over to pick out a room would you? We sort of turned the third floor into our own private apartment. We were planning on turning the second floor into a nursery but there is still the small bedroom on the first floor that she can have.” Teddy shrugged.
“Nursery…you’re planning kids?” Harry frowned.
Scorpius snorted, “Not yet. I’ve taken a year long contraceptive and until I’m ready to bear a child preferably after Hogwarts thank you, we’re just going to focus on building a strong relationship first.”
Harry let out a sigh of relief, “I’m not too keen on being a granddad just yet and I doubt Draco is either.”
“We’re going to finish our apprenticeships before we even consider them.” Teddy said sagely.
Scorpius nodded, “I’ve already talked to Uncle Bill and he promised if I have all straight Outstandings he’ll let me apprentice to him as a Cursebreaker. Since Aunt Fleur has shipped all their kids to Hogwarts ages ago, she’s back to cursebreaking and she’s interested in letting me possibly join eventually of course as a partner so it would be Weasley, Delacour and Malfoy Cursebreakers.”
“What about you Teddy?”
“I’m still interested in Dragons and Uncle Viktor promised that if my NEWTS are just as high as my OWLS then I’ll be accepted to their training program.”
“Then there is the problem of you‘re being in Romania and Scorpius being in Britain.” Harry warned.
“I’m only training in Romania. I’m not staying there.” Teddy said stubbornly. “Once I’m certified as a dragon medic Uncle Viktor promised that he’d put in a good word for me at the preserve in Wales. My plan is to transfer there and our home being here in London will be fine.”
Harry nodded, “Alright then. So we’ll see you at the barbeque?”
Scorpius smirked, “Are you burning the chicken?”
Harry chuckled, “Of course. Nothing like burned chicken.”
Burned chicken was the family euphemism for blackened chicken, the skin was burnt to a crisp but to the house elves’ distaste but the family loved it.
It was Aunt Mal, Lady Goyle formerly Mafalda Prewett who turned them onto burnt chicken apparently she’d grown up on the stuff and got them all to like it.
Their dad hugged them both and disappeared into the floo.
XoooooX
They were just sitting down to lunch when Vivi flooed in.
Vivi was the closest to their age in their family and she took after her godfather their Uncle Bill in intelligence but she wanted to be a Hit Wizard.
“Vivi.” Scorpius said pleasantly while waiving her into one of chairs.
They normally ate in the receiving room/front parlour because the dining room was far too large for two people.
Vivi joined them, her red hair done up in two-dozen mini braids that she proudly did herself. It was a fashion thing she picked up from ‘Aunt’ Angelina…
“So,” Vivi said helping herself to watermelon, “I get to fix up my own room then?”
Teddy nodded, “You are a Black Heiress and well this is your home, one of them anyway. With Scorpius apprenticing to Uncle Bill after Hogwarts and my probable acceptance to train with Uncle Charlie at the preserve we’ll need someone we trust to housesit.”
Vivi nodded, “Since I’ll be applying as a hit wizard it’s no problem to live here in London since that’s where the Ministry is.”
“You’re welcome to use Wizard space charms or undetectable extension charms but we plan on having the second floor be a nursery.” Scorpius said as he ate his strawberry delicately.
Vivi snorted, “So that means I get Ginny and Hermione’s old room by the library then. No problem.”
Teddy scowled at her, “James is not to ever spend the night in your room.”
Vivi smirked, “Oh please you’re talking about it like it’s my virginity in jeopardy. I keep telling you no. I’ve got eventual designs on his arse the way you do on Scorpius’ but that’s neither here nor there. Jaime and I already discussed it, he’s going to carry our children and he plans to write children’s books.”
Scorpius frowned, “Really? I’m surprised.”
“Scorpius I love you but you can be just so oblivious like the rest of the family.” Vivi snickered.
“The Weasleys family must get a kick out of you.” Teddy chuckled.
“Everyone but Gran, Uncle Ron and Aunt Hermione; they are just plain mean. They are always complaining about how Uncle Bill should have adopted me.” Vivi scowled, “That is when they aren’t insulting Uncle Seamus, Uncle Viktor, Aunt Fleur or Uncle Percy. They also ask about Ginny too much, as if I want to have anything to do with her. They complain all the time about how horrible papa is and how if he hadn’t stuck his pointy nose into dad and Ginny’s business that they would have made up and had kids together.”
Scorpius snorted, “As if, our fathers are so madly in love it’s almost sickening.”
“You just want to be that in love when you get to be their age.” Vivi retorted smugly.
Scorpius blushed, “Being Veela I’m sure that my randy wolf couldn’t help but love me.”
Vivi snorted, “Thank Merlin you’re on the third floor that way I don’t have to hear anything.”
Scorpius tossed an apple at her, “Just be quiet.”
Telling anyone to shut up was poor manners…
The display of sibling bickering was rather pleasant and Teddy just let them go at it.
After lunch Scorpius offered to show Vivi the room.
Teddy called after them, “If you want to go shopping we can.”
Vivi smirked, “You paying?”
Scorpius linked their arms together, “Obviously, he is Lord Black after all.”
“Good because my taste is almost as expensive as papa’s.”

“But just as expensive as mine.” Scorpius laughed.
Being Teddy's lover had melted Scorpius' icy personality so he had grown closer and more affectionate with his siblings, even Vivi, who was more of a sibling then Teddy despite being a distant cousin and Lily who was a second cousin.
The two headed upstairs to take a look at the stripped room.
It was relatively small compared to their bedrooms at the Manor, but undetectable extension charms and Wizarding space charms would fix that.
“I’m glad you finally snagged Teddy. You’re a lot easier to be around now, you’re more like the old Scorp.”
Scorpius snorted but didn’t outright agree with her and Vivi clearly didn’t expect him to.
It was a Malfoy tradition that when they turned eleven they received a new bedroom and moved from the children’s wing to the family wing.
After their seventeen birthday, they were allowed to update their rooms to more adult tastes; Vivi who was going into her sixth year was going to be allowed to do so during winter holidays.
Teddy and Scorpius had chosen to redo Grimmauld instead since it would be their home after graduation.
After circling the tiny room, Vivi sighed, “Are you sure I can’t have a different room?”
“The nursery is for our kids.” Scorpius retorted.
“It will take a lot of Wizarding space and undetectable extension charms to make this less claustrophobic.” Vivi sniffed.
The two siblings set to work making the space seem larger, without altering its external appearance.
They doubled the size of the room at least and cast a spell that duplicated the bathroom that was on the other side of the wall as well as created an arch that granted Vivi access to the study.
Their apartment on the third floor had studies for Teddy and Scorpius as well as a huge walk-in his and his closet. They had combined all three bathrooms into one: so it had two sinks, two toilets, even two bidets because well Scorpius liked them while Teddy was content to humour him. They had the excess furniture from the other two bedrooms added to the attic storage.
Anything they didn’t transfigure they had Lila and Nina put in the attic.
The master bedroom had once been home to a very large hippogriff so it practically had to be gutted but the two other bedrooms on the floor helped them repair it as best they could.
The others had been left as is and Scorpius had a horrible feeling that mother Weasel had inhabited one of them. Arthur Weasley, Vivi’s grandfather by birth had refused to give up Harry but hadn’t felt the need to argue about it and had been just as much a part of their lives as grand'mere Narcissa but was undoubtedly more fun.
They hadn’t been allowed by mother Weasel to attend the burial but they were invited later because Uncle Bill was Head of the Weasley family. They weren’t much welcome at the funeral but because they went with Vivi all they were subjected to were dark looks and snubs.
“So how is Cornelia?”
Cornelia Pucey was Vivi’s best friend and the daughter of Adrian Pucey and Brecc Montague who had eloped to France after graduation. They didn’t return until after the war had ended to find Adrian’s family devastated by the war…
Vivi shrugged, "She's fine."
"Only fine?" Teddy teased, having shown up probably due to boredom.
Vivi glared, "We could have used another wand you know."
Teddy smirked, "Thought you two needed the bonding time and I went to fetch the Black seal."
Vivi grinned michieviously, "Taking me shopping now?"
"Anywhere you want." Teddy said magnanimously.
"Athena's and Arachnia's." was Vivi's smug reply.
Vivi was referring to Athena's Furniture Emporium and Arachnia's Linens. If Nana took Vivi, Lily and Cassie to Celestine's to buy clothes because it was the place for witches, then Athena's and Arachnia's were the social and costly equivalent when it came to filling one’s house with new.
If it was antiques or artefacts you wanted well there were other places to go…
While they loved their sister, they didn’t love Vivi that much…
The three Malfoy-Potter siblings then made their way to the drawing room where they flooed to Diagon Alley.
They walked arm-in-arm through Diagon Alley before slipping into Athena’s Furniture Emporium.
Being Lord Black legally, Teddy had the Black family seal so his purchases could be deducted from his main vault...
There wasn't a price limit on Vivi's furnishings and well between Nana Andromeda and Papa well, they were all well trained on how to shop with excellent taste.
Yet there was Dad's influence about expensive things not being everything to balance it out...
Scorpius stayed close to Teddy, the Malfoy-Potter Family were well-know customers but even this many years later there were those who didn't like their dads being together.
They were conscious of the looks and whispers, even this many years past there were still persons who were vehemently against their dads’ relationship primarily Vivi’s Weasley relations like her grandmother Molly, Uncle Ron and Aunt Hermione.
The other Weasleys were close to all of them equally; they were more likely to invite the Malfoy-Potter children for play dates over the Granger-Weasleys.
Vivi might not be a painter like Nana Andromeda or Scorpius but she was quite skilled with pen and ink so she was very appreciative of light. In fact chandeliers had long been a focal point in her apartment’s décor at Malfoy Manor. Likely spawning from Fleur’s gift to her at her Wiccaning of a rose and glass chandelier, but who could truly know?
So it wasn’t much of a surprise that Vivi’s first stop in Athena’s was the lighting display…
Vivi’s vivacious, authoritative aura had salespersons swirling to assist her.
Vivi's choice of the Veronique 6-light chandelier was expected, she had a fondness for large fancy chandeliers. It helped that they'd charmed a higher ceiling for her room...
Vivi pointed out a 6-light chandelier that was more appropriate for a dining room then a bedroom but that was Vivi for you.
Her choice was from the design line Veronique and that made it more pricey but Teddy had already expected it to be so. It was made with strengthened silver chains that held a flower-shaped Murano glass that was charmed to glitter like the star-filled Andromeda Galaxy or dew-laced spider web shimmering in moonlight depending on the choice. The glass was also decorated with silver vine-like engravings that added to its charm.
It was in stark contrast to the black chandeliers that Scorpius and Teddy had chosen for Grimmauld Place.
Before they left Vivi had included three Regina Crystal wall sconces and Payton Chandelier. Scorpius also asked to have their most talented chandelier designer contact him for a special order on behalf of Lord Black.
Despite Vivi being a Gryffindor, their sister's favourite colour was neither red nor gold. Rather it was different shades of purple, silvery whites and true silver.
Thus her main furniture was the Barrister velvet sofa and Barrister velvet loveseat both in purple. Vivi selected the Sienna Storage cabinet and the Waverly Chest that were both stained violet along with the Robyn Rug. Her accents were the Fontine Wall Mirror, Fiona Pillows in emerald, Feuille Pillows in silver, the Celia Cocktail ottoman, a Montgomery display cabinet and Tently Armchairs covered in ivory velvet and embroidered in bronze and silver for Vivi’s sitting room/library. Vivi also selected a Loretta purse tree in bronze and the Rumfield Coat Rack in the same.
Being that her given name was Genevieve it wasn’t very astonishing that her table choices were part of the Geneve line specifically the Console and the Coffee tables. There were also the Birdcage bookends and the three-piece Lyons desk set along with the Wilshire Desk and chair; the latter Teddy was suspicious that Vivi only chose whimsically due to their having grown up in Wiltshire.
Vivi picked out a white French dressing table stool that had an amethyst velvet-covered seat to go with her Geneve console table that she clearly planned to turn into a dressing table along with an Antiqued silver 3-panelled dressing table mirror. She also selected the Miranda Jewellery armoire and Hannah tray set to organise her beauty products. You couldn’t be raised by Draco Malfoy and Andromeda Black-Tonks and not consider how best to accent your beauty…
Her next stop was the bathroom where she poked over the displays before insisting that she have the Tudor-style double sink cabinet topped with Carrara marble and the antique silver fixtures.
She also chose a wizard-space charmed tub that was in a classic style that could adjust to fit a very large man or multiple persons. The tub had a rolled rim and a stepped base, which defined it as bath centrepiece. Its bright white porcelain finish claimed to be applied by hand for a look that was both traditional and eye-catching.
The sort of bathtub that Teddy and Scorpius planned for their own permanent remodel of Grimmauld…
There was also a Veronica Floor Mirror, Collette Tissue Holder which was white wrought iron accented with vines and a Barton Linen Tower.
There was an Invermere Chest for the foot of her Chateau style queen-size bed that paired with her Chateau style Dresser, Chest and Nightstand for Vivi’s bedroom. Along with the French Chateau Canvas Print Set, Moira Armchair, Tanya End Table and a Matilde rug for the bedroom.
Teddy knew better then to ask for the total when Vivi exuberantly announced she was finished, he merely affixed the Black Family Seal to the list of items to confirm permission for payment to be deducted from the main Black Vault and instructed for them to be sent later by packing portkey.
Scorpius poked around but found nothing that he felt was worthy of replacing the transfigured items in Grimmauld.
Their next stop was Arachnia’s Linens…
Given Vivi’s preference for purple, silvery whites and silvers with all that white bathroom furnishings it was understandable why she selected the Caro Checker bathroom rug in Purple, Tracey Poetic Wanderlust hand towels in purple, Bamboo Viscose set in purple, as well as the Soho bath towels in purple and grey.
Vivi picked out two Marbella Square Pillow in Driftwood, Veneto Blanket in White, Boutique Sheeting in Moss, Mandalay Bedskirt and Shams in Moss, as well as the Othello Coverlet in White. Coupled with the Queen-sized Suzani-inspired Cordova Duvet and King Shams in Pearl was not to Vivi’s usual taste though the far cheaper, Violet Mirimar Queen-sized Duvet with the bird decorated accent pillow and shams were. There were two Nicole Pillows and Riviera Sheet Set in Grey that Vivi grabbed to accent the Violet Duvet and Lavender Quilt. Vivi also wanted the Ava Curtains that were in Moss and opted for the Lavender Sashes.
Then thank Salazar Vivi was finished…
With the projected Galleons that Vivi just spent, it was a good thing she was only redoing an apartment at Grimmauld rather then the entire Place…
Teddy arranged to have the cost taken from the main Black Vault and instructed for them to be sent later by packing portkey
Vivi hugged them both, “You’re both peaches!”
Which was an Aunt Luna-ism that meant easy going…
Aunt Luna was their overall favourite Aunt…
She’d tell them stories about creatures so magical they couldn’t possibly be real, as well as gifts of stuffed animals like unicorns with real unicorn hair for their mane and tails or even peacocks with real feathers. Her Bondmate Uncle Theo told them stories about his work as an Auror that were filled with danger and near escapes that likely were fabricated to hide the truth.
Not that having Uncles like Viktor who was a former International Quidditch Seeker or Uncle Oliver who was an infamous Puddlemere Keeper wasn’t awesome… though they were both retired.
Uncle Oliver was the Flying Teacher, Uncle Blaise taught Transfiguration, Uncle Neville had left the Aurors curiously to teach Defence and Uncle Percy taught Ancient Runes at Hogwarts…
Uncle Charlie wasn’t still an active Dragon tamer, he’d taken over Dragon Preserve and Uncle Viktor ran his father’s rare potion ingredients and wandcore Retrieval Company out of Romania. Uncle Blaise and Uncle Viktor’s cousin Cassio was the current head of the Dragon Preserve’s medic school where Uncle Charlie used to attend, so that was where a place was being held for Teddy.
Uncle Seamus and Uncle George, Scorpius’ Godparents ran Weasley Wizard Wheezes which was a haven for children…
Uncle Bill and Aunt Fleur ran a Curse Breaking company together; Uncle Bill balanced his curse breaking jobs with his Wizengamot duties. That company was where Scorpius planned to work after graduation that is after he finished his apprenticeship to Uncle Bill of course, mostly because Aunt Fleur had offered him the possibility of being a partner in the firm.
Vivi led them into Antonio’s, the Italian Restaurant in Diagon and treated them both to Italian sodas and gelato.
Teddy thought it was ironic that he spent hundreds of galleons for her to furnish her apartment at Grimmauld and she treated them to a few sickles worth of sweet treats.
It was all in all a unique bonding experience for the three of them…
How often Vivi was going to be around them was still…
One wondered what Ron Weasley and Uncle Theo’s reactions to Vivi wanting to be a Hit Wizard rather than an Auror would be…

What do you think? Outstanding? Exceeds expectations? Acceptable? Poor? Dreadful? Troll?
