A little relief -open-

[Sophie Marietta Lupin]

((So this is going to be a bit shorter than usual do to my inability to think this week..))

Sophie chuckled, she wanted to get off the subject of her brother and his on again/off again girlfriend. "Well good because I really don't want to talk about it." she shook her head, "It's a horrible picture for us single girls, mainly when we have deal with the fact that it's family we're talking about."

"Oh we wouldn't want you to turn your back on us.." Sophie chuckled, "If you did who's hair would I mess up at holidays?" She loved Rose dearly, but teasing her was just so much fun. "Your hair always brightens up the day.." She chuckled.

"I'm going to make sure that if we all say long enough to see the battle for Hogwarts, that every single person we know has someone to hold on to. Be it a family member, loved one, or friend, no one should be alone in a time of need." Sophie said, "We just have to hope that they all stay alive afterward... if not, then I guess we're all going to die.. Sorry for the morbid thought."

"I haven't even mentioned him to anyone. If it comes up in conversation I just let Teddy do the talking while I nervously scratch myself." She nodded, "We could always say he has many names and we only remember the one that seems closest to us.." She nodded, "Yeah.. that's where disillusionment charms come in handy."

"I understand, but I still haven't found a boyfriend so I can't really relate personally.." Sophie grinned appologetically, "Always have something to laugh at, even if it's the stupidest of things.."

[cheesy]

Rose grinned "Its the family part for me. Ya, I want em all to find people they love, but I don't want to know all the nitty gritty details about the love life. Yuck." Rose shook her head, happy that that conversation was over though. "On other news...." She said jokingly with a grin on her face.

Rose laughed "Well, I guess if not mine then you would have to settle for Lily's, or Roxy's, or Dom's, or...wow we have alot of females int he family...." Rose laughed at her own statement, trying to mentally count her cousins in her head to no success. There really were alot of Weasley's, and alot of female ones at that. She grinned at Sophie "How can it not? Its kinda hard to not brighten someone's day when you have bright hair!" She smirked a little. "But thanks, its nice to know I'm appreciated by my family."

Rose listened to what Sophie was saying about the Battle for Hogwarts. How would having the future generation here impact the fight? Would the greater numbers increase the chances of success? Or were there enough of the other side here as well to counteract the good? "As long as my family stands together for one cause, I think that we should be able to survive, if not assist in making the war go a different way than it did. I think through all the stories we heard growing up as kids have prepared us to be the best we can, if not for ourselves in the future, then for those in the present who don't know whats coming for them."

She couldn't help but laugh a little bit at Sohpie's statement. "I wish I could have done that! I kinda got cornered by Harry in our first real conversation" She laughed at herself at the thought of it. It had been slightly awkward, but at least in Rose's mind she was gaining his trust here. She was a Weasley, and as smart as her mother, which Harry had picked up on, but is so far okay with not putting the two fully together. "Thats a good idea. But we really do need to get all us future people together, well, al least on our side."

Rose nodded and grinned. "I just always feel so bad playing him that I'm with Raj. But he like....i don't know. He seems to like me, but he's not really taking a stand. Don't guys normally like, fight over someone they like? Or at least, try to convince you that they are better?" She sighed, wishing that Scorp would take a stand. She was a bit of a helpless romantic wishing for her knight in shining armor. "I'm sure sometime we'll be looking back at this and laughing, but how long is the question."

((its ok, i was up till 4am writing a paper, end of school blues for the win!))

"On the other side of the coin!" Sophie chuckled, "The battle keeps drawing nearer.. You're going to be there aren't you?" She wanted Rose to be there with her so she was sure the girl was safe.

"Oh, but it wouldn't be the same. I wouldn't be able to chase butterflies in the summer if you weren't there." Sophie laughed, "It's better than the generation before you.. there was only Ginny."

"I don't think Percy will be beside the rest of the Weasleys. In the twins words, 'He's a prat!'" Sophie stated, smiling, "They've prepared us for the upcoming battle, and if we stay long enough, for the one next year."

"I agree fully... Because how else are we going to know who's who and who from what family is here and the like. From what I've heard there are several people, even if they aren't on a specific side, that are here." She nodded.

"Sweet heart, how would I know what they do? I may watch my brother and Vicky but they aren't a good example for fighting for the one you want..." she shook her head, "I'm sure they usually do, but Scorp is probably trying to hide things from Draco, I would."

((I'm sorry... I was trying to think of something... and I really had nothing..))

[cheesy]

Rose grinned, then frowned a little bit. The battle was drawing near. The battle where Albus Dumbledore would be killed, the battle where the Death Eaters would start to take over the school, the battle that leads up to the battle in Harry's seventh year at school (even if he didn't go). She nodded "I must be here for some reason, I have to play my part to try to tip the balance in our favor so that we have a better future."

What Sophie said next brought a very large smile to her face. "Thats true, you would just have to stick with normal butterflies that will just run away from you." Rose beamed, always thankful to have a companion who could change as well. "Ya, I wonder what changed. It went from one to so many."

Rose shook her head, thinking about Percy and his poor decisions. "He'll come around though don't forget, in time for the next battle." Rose nodded once more "Thats true. In one respect, its almost like we have an unfair advantage, but on the other hand, will our knowledge be enough?" Rose frowned a little bit at the thought.

Rose nodded "Oh ya, I've seen several people here from the future. I have a ton of classes with them, I just don't really get to talk to them much outside of classes."

Rose laughed a little bit "Ya, they aren't a very good example of a normal relationship. But you are probably right." She sighed. "Why does life have to be so complicated?"
