Last Time:
The Crock & Pestle uniforms were practically tossed aside and they all went to see the deliveries for themselves ...
XXXXXXXXXX
Fleamont chuckled as he came downstairs and found the three teens racing to get to the things that were in his wife’s hand, “Calm down. Let’s all sit down and read them.” He said and chuckled.when James moved faster than anyone else and sat obediently at the table no doubt waiting for Severus’ letter. “Ok. Remus, I put your new trunk in your room. After dinner you can check that out. So how was your day, you guys?”
“We got a visit from an Auror who wanted to talk to Remus.” Sirius commented, as he sat down at the table next to Remus.
Euphemia looked at the two letters in her hand, “That’s actually quite serious … ah, there is a ministry mark on this letter and since Severus’ letter is addressed to all of us I think Remus should read his first.” She said as she handed Remus the one letter and put Severus’ letter on the table. Of course, James seemed very interested in that letter on the table, but he forced himself to look at his friend to see what this letter was. “Would you like to read it out loud or in private?” She asked not wanting to invade Remus’ privacy, but considering the Aurors were involved she wasn’t sure if there was anything they needed to know.
“I … I’ll read it out loud.” Remus said nervously as he opened the letter. To his surprise his father’s handwriting was very shaky and most of the letter was written by two Aurors …
Dear Remus,
I don’t even know where to begin. Sorry might be a good place and I really am. It just doesn’t feel like it’s enough considering how I treated you. What hurts even more is that you were so scared and mistrusting of me that you never said anything about how badly you were hurt during the full moons. I’ll do what I can to better understand everything.
Love you,
Your idiot father

Auror Pepperton: Considering the circumstances your father will be given information and speak with an appointed werewolf who will explain some things. I have to follow protocol and ask you to stay with the Potters a bit longer. You can meet your father, but these visits must be supervised. Either myself or Auror Gill Jackson, your father’s appointed werewolf, will be the ones overseeing things. In a month you should be allowed to stay with your father again and that is done so your father can see what kind of injuries you’re prone to during your transformation. Don’t worry about that for now. Owl me if you have any questions.
Auror Jackson: I’ll make sure your father understands everything including not to eat a person’s breakfast without saying thank you. On that note I’ll also be available to answer any werewolf related questions since your father says you never had another werewolf to help. My first lesson will be cleaning methods that actually save your nose as well as your father’s. Chat with you soon.
Remus smiled feeling happy, but then frowned in confusion, “I’m glad father seems to really want to understand, but what does this have to do with breakfast?” He asked as his mind digested everything in the letter.
“That’s a good question.” A puzzled Sirius muttered as he looked over Remus’ shoulder.
Euphemia hummed as she pondered the question, “Maybe that’s something you should owl him about. Now Severus’ letter is for everyone-“
“I’ll read it!” James exclaimed and quickly grabbed the envelope. When he opened it he found two letters, but one was charmed to not open right away so he read the second one…
Dear Potter family, especially James, Sirius and Remus,
I’m still not used to writing letters, but I truly felt that I should bring this topic up. After meeting Lily at the Crock & Pestle I sent her a letter explaining what this summer has been like for me. I mentioned my grandfathers’ werewolf sanctuary project and some other things.
The message I got back was a breaking point for me on many levels and it was something I thought you should know about. The exact letter she sent me will be put in the same envelope as this letter. I’m sure it will be as enlightening for you as it was for me.
Regards.
Severus
The other letter glowed brightly and popped open once James said those last words. With everyone’s interest piqued Fleamont picked up the letter and read it aloud for everyone there. With each word every single person there became more and more annoyed. By the end of the letter everyone was stunned. During that state of shock the house elf made the delectable dinner appear on the table.
“Merlin.” Euphemia exclaimed in shock, which shifted into a deadly calm smile. “Everyone is entitled to their own opinion and we should respect that, albeit completely ill informed and closed minded. We now know how she feels and will make our own beliefs very clear. If she has a problem with that …” the mother of the house just smiled a little too sweetly and picked up a knife. “We’ll deal with that screaming mandrake when we reach it.” She commented right before viciously stabbing a piece of grilled chicken on the platter and moved it to her plate where she proceeded to slice it into tiny pieces. There was something about the way she dismantled the poultry flesh with brutal efficacy that made everyone thank every god up there that they weren’t Lily Evans …
“Umm … considering the timing and this letter … is it possible that Lily told your dad, Remus?” Sirius asked out of curiosity more than anything else.
Remus slowly chewed his piece of chicken as he pondered that comment. By the time he got to actually swallowing the piece he was too stunned to say anything. It was clear to everyone that Sirius made a good point.
Fleamont immediately placed a hand on his wife’s shoulder startling the three teens, “Euphemia, sending a letter isn’t against the law. You can’t do anything to her.”
“We’ll see.” The Lady Potter commented ominously with a dangerously calm tone. She sent her son a look that made him tense. “If she comes near the store, stay out of sight or I won’t let you visit when your father and I go talk with the Prince family about this delightful werewolf sanctuary project. Understand?” She asked seriously, feeling wary about Lily and that she even mentioned James’ name.
James nodded frantically, “She’ll never find me.” He exclaimed, not wanting to pass up a chance to see Severus.
XXXXXXXXXX
Lily’s jaw dropped as she read the letter she got from Severus. Her first reaction was to glare and throw the letter. A couple days of sulking, spending time with her doting parents and practicing magic in front of her jealous sister passed by. After some time Lily went back to the letter that laid crumpled on the floor for this whole time
“Fine. He wants to side with them then I’ll be the good friend and let him make a stupid choice. I can still work on James. He must be quite upset after finding out about Remus.” Lily commented and used magic to reduce the letter to dust.
The red haired witch rolled off her bed and put on a bit of charmed lip gloss. With the right clothes and some final touches her outfit was complete. Now that she was armed with her stylish garb she left her bedroom. After grabbing her wand she cast a spell to make sure no one was around and Lily went right up to the supposed muggle fireworks.
“Sexy witch.” She said proudly and a stone hand came out of the bottom of the fireplace mantel. The hand was holding the handle of a mini white cauldron filled with green floo powder. After taking a handful of the powder she smirked. “Secret magic.”
Those two words made the stone hand sink back up into the fireplace’s mantel taking the cauldron with it. With no evidence of the hand showing Lily put her foot into the small muggle fireplace. Once Lily tossed the powder into the fireplace and said the location she desired she was engulfed in green flames.
“Hi!” She exclaimed sweetly to the man behind the counter of the Leaky Cauldron as she stepped out of the floo, but she took off towards the back of the building before he could respond.
Even before she stepped into the very narrow alleyway behind the building she had her wand ready. As fast as she could she tapped a pattern on the bricks making them begin moving out of her way. With the magical path into Diagon Alley revealed Lily didn’t hesitate to run in.
It was a wonderful feeling. Almost like the loving magic of this world was just floating in the air and wrapping around her. Any minute would help her fly. It was a powerful force that was on her side. Helping her. Guiding her. Unfortunately, that magic, or what was probably just the power from a really good mood, just seemed to deflate the second her eyes locked onto the opening to Knockturn Alley. Despite the ominous air she didn’t let it stop her this time. Today she was a witch on a mission.
“One day I’ll see this alley shut down.” Lily muttered sourly under her breath as she strode towards the Crock & Pestle. However, this time she knew what to expect and decided to move fast and try to stay quiet. After all, Lily didn’t feel like putting up with the old witch who owned the apothecary. Sadly, her plan to be stealthy didn’t work. When Lily opened the door she raised her wand to silence the little bell that rings with every movement of the door, but it sprouted wings and flew away with a cheerful jingle.
“Sorry if that startled you.” Lily nearly jumped out of her skin when Patty appeared right next to her. “We had a minor security issue recently so we decided to up security. Can I help you, miss?”
Lily smiled, “No. I can find what I need.” She said, but once she was hidden in the shelves she scowled.
Of course, Lily brushed off her annoyance and went all the way to the back counter. For a second she was confused. After all, there wasn’t anyone there at that moment, but she lit up when she heard someone in the room behind the counter. It sounded like they were shredding and chopping various things. With no one else in sight she figured it was James and went into the little room.
“Hi! I-“ Lily’s jaw dropped.
No, she wasn’t startled by the part of the room that had a window and doubled as an owlery for shipping orders. Granted, the owls didn’t look pleased that she was there and not giving them attention, but that wasn’t a big deal. It was the person who was preparing the ingredients that shocked her.
Lily blinked, “Remus?”
“Yes?” Remus asked and finally turned to the red haired witch. “You seem surprised that I’m still here. Why is that?” He asked calmly. Of course, Remus didn’t want to accuse her outright without confirming anything, but something about the shock on her face right now confirmed a little bit and it hurt him.
“No reason! Why would I be surprised?” Lily exclaimed sweetly.
Remus went back to dicing the strange squishy green ingredient, “If you’re looking for James he had go help Severus. Something about needing a cuddle and James happy to give him that.” Remus said without even taking his eyes away from his work. The second he heard footsteps nearly running away from the room he was in and heard the bell at the front door he looked out of the room. “She’s gone.”
James poked his blushing face out from under the workstation Remus was chopping ingredients at, “Does Severus need a cuddle?” He asked as he stood up.
The werewolf laughed, “You know very well I said that to get rid of her.” He patted his disheartened friend on the back. “On the topic of a certain potion lover, Severus personally helped with this most recent potion batch.”
“Is that safe when he’s on potions that make him dizzy? … and how do you know this?” A concerned James asked as he brushed off his apron.
“Patty told me when you went to restock the lionfish spines. Severus is on potions every other day so he is better on the days without potions.” Remus said with an amused snicker when James shivered in fear. The Potter heir hated collecting the spines of the deadly fish. “Could you get a blood restoring potion, a few dreamless sleep and a calming potion? We need a few pre-made potions for an order.”
James nodded, “Yeah sure. Professor Slughorn will be happy that I’m learning so much about potions here.”
Remus went back to dicing his ingredients, “If only he knew that all he had to do to get your grades up was to have Patty blow up a potion in front of you instead of lecture you.”
“It was effective … I’ll never mix up any potions again.” James muttered and passed Sirius who came out from the shelves carrying a jar.
