Melody Summers - Slytherin 6th Year + Half-Earth Nymph - Message Me - 20:03, April 4, 2017 (UTC) Melody had picked up a dress and mask for the ball already. The latter was in a small, paper bag in her much larger purse. The former was in a see-through bag slung over her shoulder. It was obvious she had spent quite a bit of her father's money on it, but showed no emotion over it other than the small smirk decorating her lips. As she entered the house, she looked around to see if any of her relatives were around.

Jarryd Summers - Hufflepuff Alumni // Animagi - Brother's Shadow Message Me – 20:14, April 4, 2017 (UTC) Jarryd was sitting at the kitchen bench eating a bowl of cereal, even though it was no where near morning, just because he could. He spent most of last night with Nuala, so he was still tired so when he heard Melody walk through the house, he didn't want her to got on his nerves so he just put his head down closer to his cereal.

Melody Summers - Slytherin 6th Year + Half-Earth Nymph - Message Me - 01:39, April 5, 2017 (UTC) Melody noticed Jarryd, lifting her hand and giving a small wave despite him not looking at her. "Hey, Jarryd," she said, dropping the dress on a chair. It was too difficult for her to continue carrying.

Jarryd Summers - Hufflepuff Alumni // Animagi - Brother's Shadow Message Me – 02:00, April 5, 2017 (UTC) Out of the corner of his eyes, he saw Melody wave. "And where have you been?" Jarryd said, trying to sound as much like his dad as he could, which wasn't turning out very well.

Melody Summers - Slytherin 6th Year + Half-Earth Nymph - Message Me - 02:11, April 5, 2017 (UTC) Melody started laughing, directly at him. "It's none of your business," she paused, "But Diagon Alley," she added in confidently.

Jarryd Summers - Hufflepuff Alumni // Animagi - Brother's Shadow Message Me – 02:47, April 5, 2017 (UTC) "When my parents and Peter aren't here, it sort of is. Getting a dress for that ball thing, I'm guessing?" Jarryd asked, not seeing the dress at all.

Melody Summers - Slytherin 6th Year + Half-Earth Nymph - Message Me - 02:59, April 5, 2017 (UTC) "Of course. I need to go. It's for people like me," she said, smiling as she picked up the dress and brought it over to him. "What do you think?"

Jarryd Summers - Hufflepuff Alumni // Animagi - Brother's Shadow Message Me – 03:03, April 5, 2017 (UTC) "People that have been to nearly every major wizard school? I never knew there was that many people that have done that." Jarryd said as a joke, turning around on his chair to look at Melody. "Not bad but I think it will look better on me."

Melody Summers - Slytherin 6th Year + Half-Earth Nymph - Message Me - 04:03, April 5, 2017 (UTC) Melody rolled her eyes, but still grinned as she held it out to him. "Do you want to try it on? It should change size depending on who is wearing it, so it should be fine," she said, laughing to herself at the image.

Jarryd Summers - Hufflepuff Alumni // Animagi - Brother's Shadow Message Me – 04:40, April 5, 2017 (UTC) "You do know that is making even more what to put it on and change into a bear?" Jarryd said as he stood up from his chair, behind Melody's dress. "It doesn't seem like my style though."

Melody Summers - Slytherin 6th Year + Half-Earth Nymph - Message Me - 05:04, April 5, 2017 (UTC) Melody pulled it away from him, putting as much distance between the dress and him as possible. "Never mind, you're not touching it," she said. "Are you going to go to the ball? With your girlfriend?" she asked.

Jarryd Summers - Hufflepuff Alumni // Animagi - Brother's Shadow Message Me – 06:38, April 5, 2017 (UTC) "Wouldn't think of it, Music. We didn't talk about it but I think we might go. I can't believe you of all of our family don't know I'm engaged. You seem to be the centre of gossip in our family." Music is Jarryd's nickname for her

Melody Summers - Slytherin 6th Year + Half-Earth Nymph - Message Me - 06:46, April 5, 2017 (UTC) Melody was a bit offended and mocked disgust as she grimaced. "Oh. Ew, you're engaged? Disgusting. Congratulations," she said, rolling her eyes. "I didn't think five years old could be engaged, but I better be invited to the wedding regardless."

Jarryd Summers - Hufflepuff Alumni // Animagi - Brother's Shadow Message Me – 06:55, April 5, 2017 (UTC) "It has been like six months, little bit late. And I thought a four year old couldn't go to that ball. I don't know if Nuala even wants a wedding."

Melody Summers - Slytherin 6th Year + Half-Earth Nymph - Message Me - 07:16, April 5, 2017 (UTC) "Well, whether you want to or not, or whether she wants to or not, you're having one. I'm going to plan it, if you don't," she said, setting the dress back down in the living room before going back to be sitting beside him.

Jarryd Summers - Hufflepuff Alumni // Animagi - Brother's Shadow Message Me – 13:00, April 5, 2017 (UTC) "This is something you should be saying to Nuala, not me. There are two other women, maybe three, depending how involved the newest person in our family is, that will really want to or help plan my wedding, even if Nuala and I don't want one."

Melody Summers - Slytherin 6th Year + Half-Earth Nymph - Message Me - 19:45, April 5, 2017 (UTC) "What three?" she asked, "I've never seen anybody in this family excited for anything other than animals," she said, rolling her eyes and flipping her hair over her shoulder. "I would say it to her, if I knew her. I haven't even met her."

Jarryd Summers - Hufflepuff Alumni // Animagi - Brother's Shadow Message Me – 20:31, April 5, 2017 (UTC) "Mum and dad are about to adopt a little English girl this summer, so of course you haven't met her yet. Peter and I have met her but that was before dad thought of adopting."

Melody Summers - Slytherin 6th Year + Half-Earth Nymph - Message Me - 20:49, April 5, 2017 (UTC) "Nuala, dumb*ss," she said, rolling her eyes. "I haven't met Nuala, your fiancee or whatever." However, she was genuinely offended. "I don't need another girl around here, nor do I need another Summers," she mumbled.

Jarryd Summers - Hufflepuff Alumni // Animagi - Brother's Shadow Message Me – 23:43, April 5, 2017 (UTC) "You do know I meant my mum and Rashida when I said two other women and the third is my soon adopted sister. Dad was trying to convince mum to adopt her long before you moved in with us."

Melody Summers - Slytherin 6th Year + Half-Earth Nymph - Message Me - 06:56, April 6, 2017 (UTC) "I don't care. I didn't even ask? I already assumed such," she said, getting up and going to go get an orange. "When's everybody else getting home anyways?"

Jarryd Summers - Hufflepuff Alumni // Animagi - Brother's Shadow Message Me – 07:07, April 6, 2017 (UTC) "Peter is with his girlfriend so I don't know. Mum and Dad are back in South Africa so, they might be back soon."

Alex Summers - Part-time self employed . Magizoologist - You live with nature long enough, it lives with you." Message Me - 07:07, April 6, 2017 (UTC) He had left South Africa early because both him and Billie didn't trust Jarryd, Melody and Peter but instead of going straight to England, Alex had been at Sobek and Rashida's, getting help from Sobek with all the legal papers of adopting a child. He finally got home and heard Jarryd and Melody talking. Not wanting to break up their quality cousin bonding time, Alex stayed quiet as he walked towards the kitchen.

Melody Summers - Slytherin 6th Year + Half-Earth Nymph - Message Me - 07:10, April 6, 2017 (UTC) "Nobody tells me anything around here," she said, grabbing the orange and aggressively piercing her thumb through its skin. Quickly, she passed her uncle without even looking at him.

Jarryd Summers - Hufflepuff Alumni // Animagi - Brother's Shadow Message Me – 07:16, April 6, 2017 (UTC) "Now you know how I feel." Jarryd said to Melody as he saw Alex before he went back eating his cereal.

Alex Summers - Part-time self employed . Magizoologist - You live with nature long enough, it lives with you." Message Me - 07:16, April 6, 2017 (UTC) When Melody went past him, Alex grabbed his wand out, using magic on her to make her back to the kitchen. "How could you literally walk past me, Melody?" he said as he follwed Melody to the kitchen.

Melody Summers - Slytherin 6th Year + Half-Earth Nymph - Message Me - 07:20, April 6, 2017 (UTC) Melody's fists curled, wanting to slam them into his face, but keeping herself from doing so. "And you'll keep your magic off of me, thank you," she said, continuing to walk past him again. "I was thinking about staying at a friend's house for the summer. It's better than here."

Alex Summers - Part-time self employed . Magizoologist - You live with nature long enough, it lives with you." Message Me - 07:28, April 6, 2017 (UTC) "And who would that friend be? I may not be your father but I have the right to know if you are staying at a boy's house. And I'm offended at that, maybe offended enough to not let you go to that Ball." Alex said, with no really force behind his threat.

Melody Summers - Slytherin 6th Year + Half-Earth Nymph - Message Me - 07:40, April 6, 2017 (UTC) "It's a girl. I'm not really well-liked in the boy department," she said, crossing her arms. "I don't need to tell you her name either."

Alex Summers - Part-time self employed . Magizoologist - You live with nature long enough, it lives with you." Message Me - 20:05, April 6, 2017 (UTC) "I would like you to. I'm treating you just like I do for Jarryd and Peter, so would appreciate it if you tell me her name."

Summers Family Christmas

Billie Summers - The Hawaan Huntress “I like it when a flower or a little tuft of grass grows through a crack in the concrete. It's so #^@%^&' heroic.” Send Me an Owl! - 23:14, May 25, 2017 (UTC) *Billie closed the door after Sobek and Rashida left, she went back to join the rest of the family with a wide smile on her face as put her arms around Alex. These were the moments she loved the most when the family was all together under one roof even if there were a few extras she didn't mind that at all.* "Happy Christmas boys and girls. Did everyone get enough to eat?"

Singer/Songwriter • Petite Diable • Single• 19 Years Old
Valerie Knight	Val sat on the couch, her legs tucked up and hugged to her chest. She rested her head on her knees, not saying a word. She got plenty of food, but she'd rather stay quiet right now. 23:23, May 25, 2017 (UTC) Message Me!

Alex Summers - Part-time self employed . Magizoologist - You live with nature long enough, it lives with you." Message Me - 23:29, May 25, 2017 (UTC) It was great to have everyone together for the first time, even if his parents and Oliver wasn't there. Alex just sat normally as Billie came back into the room, after saying goodbye to Sobek and Rashida, after all they were originally her friends. "I don't think I could eat until next Christmas. It was great Billie."

Peter Summers - Gryffindor Alumni - South African Nature Preserver Message Me – 23:29, May 25, 2017 (UTC) The awkwardness of being around his parents and right next to his girlfriend was big for Peter. "Mum, I seriously feel like I could burst."

Jarryd Summers - Hufflepuff Alumni // Animagi - Brother's Shadow Message Me – 23:29, May 25, 2017 (UTC) He had his head resting on Nuala's shoulder, his ear that was slightly deaf from Fwoopers pointing up. "Mum, I seriously don't know what you just said."

Nya Brightly - Slytherin Graduate *Employee at The Hopping Pot -'The quietest people have the loudest minds'  – Owl "It was amazing, thank you Mrs Summers" She said quietly, sitting stiffly beside Peter, clearly awkward in this situation.

Billie Summers - The Hawaan Huntress “I like it when a flower or a little tuft of grass grows through a crack in the concrete. It's so #^@%^&' heroic.” Send Me an Owl! - 23:14, May 25, 2017 (UTC) *Billie had to tear her eyes away from Val before briefly eying Jarryd and forcing a smile on her face to cover the fact that she was overly concerned about her only daughter at the moment.* "Thank you, Nya. And please call me Billie."

Nuala McDermot - Gryffindor Alumna “The secret of happiness is freedom, the secret of freedom is courage.” Send Me an Owl! - 23:42, May 25, 2017 (UTC) *Nuala was bouncing Jarryd's head on up and down on her shoulder it took her minute to process the fact that should probably say something nice too.* "She asked if you had enough to eat." *She said to him quietly.* "It was great. When I think I can handle it I'll definitely want more."

Singer/Songwriter • Petite Diable • Single• 19 Years Old
Valerie Knight	Feeling Billie's eyes on her, Val finally looked up, and spoke. "It was great, thank you Billie." She answers, smiling gently for a moment before going back to her position. 23:45, May 25, 2017 (UTC) Message Me!

Melody Summers - Slytherin 6th Year + Half-Earth Nymph - Message Me - 23:53, May 25, 2017 (UTC) Melody rolled her eyes, biting at her lip firmly before responding to her aunt. "It was good, dank u zeer," she said, mostly avoiding eye contact with everybody. It was still stressful for her to be around them.

Alex Summers - Part-time self employed . Magizoologist - You live with nature long enough, it lives with you." Message Me - 00:02, May 26, 2017 (UTC) "I think Horus liked it to. It was all over him." Alex said before he kissed Billie on the check.

Peter Summers - Gryffindor Alumni - South African Nature Preserver Message Me – 00:02, May 26, 2017 (UTC) "Mum doesn't like being called Mrs Summers, even though Billie isn't her real name. It makes her feel old." Peter whispered to Nya.

Jarryd Summers - Hufflepuff Alumni // Animagi - Brother's Shadow Message Me – 00:02, May 26, 2017 (UTC) "Yeah I've had enough, mum. Enough that I feel like crawling into a cave and sleeping for 6 months."

Nya Brightly - Slytherin Graduate *Employee at The Hopping Pot -'The quietest people have the loudest minds'  – Owl She nodded, shrinking down into the seat slightly in embarrassment. She hadn't even been here more than a few hours and already she'd screwed up. Great going.

Nuala McDermot - Gryffindor Alumna “The secret of happiness is freedom, the secret of freedom is courage.” Send Me an Owl! - 00:22, May 26, 2017 (UTC) *Nuala chuckled a little at Jarryd before she slipped of her chair trying to be helpful and collect dirty plates.* "If everyone's finished eating I'm just going to clear the table."

Billie Summers - The Hawaan Huntress “I like it when a flower or a little tuft of grass grows through a crack in the concrete. It's so #^@%^&' heroic.” Send Me an Owl! - 00:22, May 26, 2017 (UTC) *Billie's eyes went straight to Peter.* "Geen meer van julle." *She said through tight lips.* "You're embarrassing me." *She eyed him sternly once more as she got up to make sure she wasn't letting a guest engage in house work all alone.*

Singer/Songwriter • Petite Diable • Single• 19 Years Old
Valerie Knight	She pulled her plate away from Nuala as she came around to take it. "I'll help." She says quietly, standing up just as Mama Summers does. "Let me?" Val includes, the question towards Nuala. 00:25, May 26, 2017 (UTC) Message Me!

Alex Summers - Part-time self employed . Magizoologist - You live with nature long enough, it lives with you." Message Me - 00:33, May 26, 2017 (UTC) "I think us men should do it." Alex said as he stood up and took the plates from Billie. "Jarryd, Peter, get up and take the plates from Nuala or from the table." Alex said sternly.

Peter Summers - Gryffindor Alumni - South African Nature Preserver Message Me – 00:33, May 26, 2017 (UTC) "If Sobek was still here, you wouldn't have made him do it." Peter said as he took the plates from the table.

Jarryd Summers - Hufflepuff Alumni // Animagi - Brother's Shadow Message Me – 00:33, May 26, 2017 (UTC) "Maybe because Sobek isn't a Summers and has a kid." Jarryd said as he tried to take the plates from Nuala.

Nuala McDermot - Gryffindor Alumna “The secret of happiness is freedom, the secret of freedom is courage.” Send Me an Owl! - 00:48, May 26, 2017 (UTC) *Nuala let Val and Jarryd pick the rest of the plates and went back to her seat, almost feeling like she should have let someone else get to them before she did.*

Billie Summers - The Hawaan Huntress “I like it when a flower or a little tuft of grass grows through a crack in the concrete. It's so #^@%^&' heroic.” Send Me an Owl! - 00:48, May 26, 2017 (UTC) *Billie smiled over at Alex.* "The men can do it but they have to keep in mind they will also be washing those dishes not just putting haphazardly all over the kitchen." *She continued on about her business.*

Singer/Songwriter • Petite Diable • Single• 19 Years Old
Valerie Knight	Val lets the boys take the plate, and sighs, shrugging in agreement with her adoptive mother before going back to sitting with her legs hugged to her chest. 00:55, May 26, 2017 (UTC) Message Me!

Alex Summers - Part-time self employed . Magizoologist - You live with nature long enough, it lives with you." Message Me - 00:59, May 26, 2017 (UTC) "Jarryd, Peter did you hear that?" Alex said smiling.

Peter Summers - Gryffindor Alumni - South African Nature Preserver Message Me – 00:59, May 26, 2017 (UTC) "Dad, I think that was directed at you, not us."

Jarryd Summers - Hufflepuff Alumni // Animagi - Brother's Shadow Message Me – 00:59, May 26, 2017 (UTC) He took the plates from both Nuala and Val, getting a little bit to much for him. "Somebody help."

Billie Summers - The Hawaan Huntress “I like it when a flower or a little tuft of grass grows through a crack in the concrete. It's so #^@%^&' heroic.” Send Me an Owl! - 01:11, May 26, 2017 (UTC) *Billie laughed and took a few the excess plates from Jarryd and motioned for Val to come back. Quite naturally she was going to let the little girl do as she pleased either way.* "Since when do you not count as one of the men in our family?"

Singer/Songwriter • Petite Diable • Single• 19 Years Old
Valerie Knight	"SInce I want to feel useful." She answered under her breath, standing up once more and going back to sitting on the couch. 01:20, May 26, 2017 (UTC) Message Me!

Jarryd Summers - Hufflepuff Alumni // Animagi - Brother's Shadow Message Me – 01:38, May 26, 2017 (UTC) "Thank you, mum. I didn't want to change into a bear and possible break them trying to carry them or drop them all anyway."

Billie Summers - The Hawaan Huntress “I like it when a flower or a little tuft of grass grows through a crack in the concrete. It's so #^@%^&' heroic.” Send Me an Owl! - 18:09, May 26, 2017 (UTC) *Billie laughed again she'd meant the comment for Alex but if Val's timing hadn't been perfect she might have pointed that out.* "That's enough juggling. Boys can we get these to the kitchen without breaking them?" *She lead both Peter and Jarryd to the kitchen excusing them both to return to their guests.*

Alex Summers - Part-time self employed . Magizoologist - You live with nature long enough, it lives with you." Message Me - 05:43, May 27, 2017 (UTC) Alex was already in the kitchen when Billie and his sons came in, already placed the dishes in the sink then walking back to everyone else. "So how is school going, you four?" Alex asked Nya, Nuala, Val and Melody.

Peter Summers - Gryffindor Alumni - South African Nature Preserver Message Me – 05:43, May 27, 2017 (UTC) He followed Billie into the kitchen and put the dishes in the sink like his father before he heard Alex trying to make conversation. "Mum, can you please tell dad to not saying anything embarrassing about me?" Peter said as he softly head butted the wall, still in the kitchen.

Jarryd Summers - Hufflepuff Alumni // Animagi - Brother's Shadow Message Me – 05:43, May 27, 2017 (UTC) "I think it is safer in here for me too. I just know dad will embarrass me and Nuala with questions about our wedding." Jarryd hoped up on the kitchen bench next to the sink, sitting on it.

Billie and Val

Singer/Songwriter • Petite Diable • Single• 19 Years Old
Valerie Knight	Finally, some peace and quiet. Jarryd and Peter had left, along with their respective girlfriends. Val helped them clean up a bit, but then, needing time alone, she stepped outside, walking towards the lake of sorts. Once she was there, she pulled off her shoes and sat down, dipping her feet in as she stared out into nothing. 01:26, May 26, 2017 (UTC) Message Me!

Billie Summers - The Hawaan Huntress “I like it when a flower or a little tuft of grass grows through a crack in the concrete. It's so #^@%^&' heroic.” Send Me an Owl! - 01:32, May 26, 2017 (UTC) *Billie had watched Val go, it wasn't that she wanted to have been asked for permission although she did feel herself becoming annoyingly protective. She was certain she was shifting the brunt of her love from Jarryd to Val and it seemed to her that neither of them really wanted it. Nonetheless she followed her youngest out towards the water, she was still afraid that being as attentive as she wanted to be was only going to drive her away so she kept her distance.* "Should I wait a while longer before I interrupt your 'me' time?"

Singer/Songwriter • Petite Diable • Single• 19 Years Old
Valerie Knight	She jumped slightly in surprise, and glanced over at Billie. "Maybe?" She snapped slightly, but then closed her eyes, and sighed. "No..." She corrects. "No. I'm sorry. Sorry, I've been quiet, I just... There was a lot of people..." 01:39, May 26, 2017 (UTC) Message Me!

Billie Summers - The Hawaan Huntress “I like it when a flower or a little tuft of grass grows through a crack in the concrete. It's so #^@%^&' heroic.” Send Me an Owl! - 01:43, May 26, 2017 (UTC) *Billie nodded.* "It's alright. That was probably intense. You weren't the only one there that was a little uncomfortable with how big we consider our family to be. I'm sorry if it was too much for you too soon. Alex and I should have let you know you always had the option to sit this one out. Or at least that you could excuse yourself whenever you needed to."

Singer/Songwriter • Petite Diable • Single• 19 Years Old
Valerie Knight	Val shrugs. "I figured it'd be fine if I so chose to do that... But it was fine. As long as I kept to my own it wasn't too bad." 01:47, May 26, 2017 (UTC) Message Me!

At least with amongst the Summers family it's not horrible."

But I can't stress enough that I want you to know you don't have to be alone. When you want to, when you need to go ahead. I would like it if you told me when you're going far but when you're here at home with us take all the time you need."

Both Nuala and Nya are very nice young women if not a little bit odd in their own special way."

Singer/Songwriter • Petite Diable • Single• 19 Years Old

There might be some bad boy out there that sees you as a good girl."

Singer/Songwriter • Petite Diable • Single• 19 Years Old
Valerie Knight	She chuckles. "If you're about to call me a good girl, Billie, you're wrong..." She glances at her. "I'm Slytherin for a reason." She shrugs. "So how did you and Alex meet...?" 02:39, May 26, 2017 (UTC) Message Me!

He saw me with Rashida and Sobek who you met earlier. He followed us around just so he could meet me."

We care for them, breed them, train them and when necessary we euthanize them. it's what I consider our legacy. My father married into it. When he and my mother began taking in animals from all over the world he was supposed to secure the permits from the authorities which allowed us not only to have them but also to keep them. He never did that. Rather than exposing our family and himself to a level of scrutiny that would expose almost any and every secret one could possibly keep from wizarding society he choose to flee with no regard as to what might happen to everything he left behind."

Jarryd Summers - Hufflepuff Alumni // Animagi - Brother's Shadow Message Me – 20:58, May 23, 2017 (UTC) Nuala at his house was making him nervous, even if his parents were staying away. Being as hungry as he was, Jarryd left Nuala in his room when he went out to the kitchen. He can back into his room with a big bag of chips. "You want any?"

Nuala McDermot - Gryffindor Alumna “The secret of happiness is freedom, the secret of freedom is courage.” Send Me an Owl! - 21:04, May 23, 2017 (UTC) *Nuala was fairly calm, it was just Jarryd for the time being and that made being at his house seem like it wasn't as big a deal as it really was at least to her.* "Yes! All of them. Did you get anything for yourself?" *She chuckled as she reached out for the bag.*

Jarryd Summers - Hufflepuff Alumni // Animagi - Brother's Shadow Message Me – 21:08, May 23, 2017 (UTC) "Like I haven't heard that joke before." Jarryd said sarcastically, directing the bag towards Nuala. "You're jokes are like my dad's, terrible." Jarryd sat down on his bed. "I'm surprised my mum isn't checking up on us every few minutes."

Nuala McDermot - Gryffindor Alumna “The secret of happiness is freedom, the secret of freedom is courage.” Send Me an Owl! - 21:16, May 23, 2017 (UTC) "Who said I was joking? I'm hungry too. I'm probably going to eat more of this bag of chips than you are." *She took the bag and tried to be at least a little bit civil as she ripped it open.* "Is she even here? I honestly thought she'd put herself in-between us anywhere we went."

Jarryd Summers - Hufflepuff Alumni // Animagi - Brother's Shadow Message Me – 21:22, May 23, 2017 (UTC) "I think she is out buying things for you and Horus. Or she could be out with dad or working. I never know with her. She could at Hogsmede actually, trying to spend time with Val." Jarryd sighed. "Or she could actually be giving us space to talk about our wedding."

Nuala McDermot - Gryffindor Alumna “The secret of happiness is freedom, the secret of freedom is courage.” Send Me an Owl! - 21:26, May 23, 2017 (UTC) *Nuala winced after sinking her teeth into her tongue.* "Do you really think so? I thought if we were planning she was going to want a real big hand in that. Knowing that I haven't got my own mom or dad around to ask for help. I guess I kind of expected to your parents to sort of step in where mine can't. Not like I'm expecting your dad to walk me down the isle or anything. Unless he wanted to."

Jarryd Summers - Hufflepuff Alumni // Animagi - Brother's Shadow Message Me – 23:09, May 23, 2017 (UTC) "That's the thing. She knows about our little fight cause I told her and she doesn't want to be planning anything in case we are still talking if we are getting married. I think he will though. He seriously told me that you are one of the best things that ever happened to me."

Nuala McDermot - Gryffindor Alumna “The secret of happiness is freedom, the secret of freedom is courage.” Send Me an Owl! - 00:13, May 24, 2017 (UTC) "You told her?!" *Her eyes went wide. She was embarrassed but there was nothing she could do about it and she had to accept that.* "If there was nothing to plan I wouldn't be here. I wouldn't still be a part of your life. I was mad at you and I thought we were better off apart. But when we talked about it you made it better."

Jarryd Summers - Hufflepuff Alumni // Animagi - Brother's Shadow Message Me – 00:41, May 24, 2017 (UTC) "I was afraid you were going to leave me, Nuala, and my mother is the only women I'm not afraid to talk about that kind of stuff to. She is just worried, like I said. And I'm going to keep making it better, especially when we get married and have little feet running around our house."

Nuala McDermot - Gryffindor Alumna “The secret of happiness is freedom, the secret of freedom is courage.” Send Me an Owl! - 05:50, May 24, 2017 (UTC) "You were right to be scared because I was... At least I was thinking about it. That fight was serious and I needed you to know that. The only way I knew how to get my point across was to let you know what it made me feel like I needed to do. I guess I'm just embarrassed knowing that you told her about it. It makes me feel kind of weird." *She nodded only to bite her tongue, again.* "That's the third time you've put that out there. You know that?"

Jarryd Summers - Hufflepuff Alumni // Animagi - Brother's Shadow Message Me – 06:38, May 24, 2017 (UTC) "Who would have rather me of talked to, cause my dad was busy trying to get the adoption stuff for my sister, Peter would of been not much of a help and the only other kind of friend I have is Emilie in our year and I didn't know her then? Third time to say stuff about after we get married or that I will make everything awesome?"

Nuala McDermot - Gryffindor Alumna “The secret of happiness is freedom, the secret of freedom is courage.” Send Me an Owl! - 06:57, May 24, 2017 (UTC) "Me for one. I'm exactly the person you should be talking to. If the problem is between us I'm actually the only person I'd want you to talk to. Even if I don't really want to be talking to you. It probably sounds stupid but other people can't fix our problems for us. They can probably help and lead us in the right direction but if something goes wrong it's always going to be up to us to work it out." *She hesitated for a moment.* "Bringing up what happens after marriage."

Jarryd Summers - Hufflepuff Alumni // Animagi - Brother's Shadow Message Me – 16:35, May 24, 2017 (UTC) "I just wanted someone else's advice. Talking to you might be the best thing, but when I can't find you and am to scared to talk to you in case you break up with me, my parents are the best. Don't you like the idea of us having kids or are you afraid they'll get picked on for having very different looking parents?"

Nuala McDermot - Gryffindor Alumna “The secret of happiness is freedom, the secret of freedom is courage.” Send Me an Owl! - 00:07, May 25, 2017 (UTC) "Talking to me is the best the thing. And if you can't find me there's probably a good reason for that. Like I don't want to be found. You have something I don't have, you have your parents and it makes sense you would look to them when you need someone to talk to. I just wish it hadn't been your mother. But if you heard what you needed to hear I guess that's all that matters." *She shrugged filling the silence with the sound of a chip crunching in her mouth.* "... I don't know. I guess I do? I think I do? Maybe... I'm not worried about us looking different. My parents didn't look the same it doesn't mean that IF we do have a kid he or she won't get picked on for a bunch of other things."

Jarryd Summers - Hufflepuff Alumni // Animagi - Brother's Shadow Message Me – 01:52, May 25, 2017 (UTC) "She did tell me just to let you calm down then talk about it. Parents are harder to talk about that kind of stuff though cause you really don't think about your parents dating and having troubles like us. Like what exactly? That she could be shorter than most people?"

Nuala McDermot - Gryffindor Alumna “The secret of happiness is freedom, the secret of freedom is courage.” Send Me an Owl! - 03:12, May 25, 2017 (UTC) "Did she? Well, she's one smart lady. I wouldn't know but I'd say parents aren't any easier to talk to than siblings who fill that role for you. It's not that you don't think about it, you don't want to think about your parents having troubles. It ruins the image of happy family." *She clicked her tongue and made a face.* "He could be as tall as you and just as clumsy. But that's not my point. What if we're not fit to be parents and we just ... mess up our kid?"

Jarryd Summers - Hufflepuff Alumni // Animagi - Brother's Shadow Message Me – 06:42, May 25, 2017 (UTC) "I like how we are already planning what gender our possible kid like we can chose the gender. I don't think we would mess up our kid. We have both been raised by amazing people. Your siblings are great people and my parents, they are just as great. We will have learnt from the best so I don't think we will stuff up our kid."

Nuala McDermot - Gryffindor Alumna “The secret of happiness is freedom, the secret of freedom is courage.” Send Me an Owl! - 01:35, May 26, 2017 (UTC) "I wasn't planning that anyways. I was just pointing out a big huge IF you were overlooking. We could have boy and again that's IF. What if that's not even something we can do? I know you seem a lot like your all set to get on with trying but I mean it's a real possibility. That kind of thing might not be something we actually get to have in our life."

Jarryd Summers - Hufflepuff Alumni // Animagi - Brother's Shadow Message Me – 04:23, May 26, 2017 (UTC) "And we could have a girl that would be just as beautiful as her mother. We should just hope for the best and if that is the case, we can always adopt or have a surrogate. There is more than one way to be parents." Something Jarryd the other day came up in his mind. "I did read about that scientists can clone sperm cells and egg cells using DNA so if that is a problem for either of us, we can always have a surrogate and still have a kid that is fully ours'."

Nuala McDermot - Gryffindor Alumna “The secret of happiness is freedom, the secret of freedom is courage.” Send Me an Owl! - 18:09, May 26, 2017 (UTC) "I know there's all sort of options even if we didn't have magic there's all sort of things we could try. But don't you think if it didn't work out the first time it might be hard for me -- for us to keep on trying."

Jarryd Summers - Hufflepuff Alumni // Animagi - Brother's Shadow Message Me – 05:49, May 27, 2017 (UTC) "Yeah, I can see that. Just knowing that there is a possibility of not being able to have a child would put the both of us off trying. But let's just think positive. In my opinion, I want to wait after we are married to have a kid. Like it would be so weird for our daughter to see herself in our wedding pictures." Jarryd sighed. "I said her again didn't I?"
