A big hooray for family

[cool_vamp]

So, yeah, Tonks inadvertently invited Pop around with my aunts and mom this week. You know, I think that was the first time he ever met the kids. It was awkward and there was a lot of foot-shuffling. He was still Mr. 'Look at me, I'm Dracula' posing about the place with his cape. At least this time he didn't tell me I was a 'vile stain on the Tepes

He did behave, though - that's got to count for something, right?

[cool_vamp]

Yeah, I guess. I'm still saying a big 'ol maybe on it all. It'd be nice for the kids, I guess.

[cruentus_caliga]

Such words of endearment.

[cool_vamp]

Well, you know me and Real-Pop. The bridges didn't get burned, they got NUKED. But I'll tolerate him, for Tonks and the kids' sake.

[cruentus_caliga]

Noble, though may not be wise. Eventually the tolerance will dissolve, if things are as bad as you say they are.

Possibly more on his end, than yours.

Oh yeah, I can't see things lasting, but Mom worked hard on getting him to swallow his pride, and Tonks seems to...I dunno, hopeful for us to patch things up. Can't ever say no to Tonks, it's a weakness.

Parents are...important?

[cool_vamp]

Yeah, they are. When they treat you right.

I know some kids who have rotten families, but mine has always been...mostly not blood family, but sort of better. The best.

And now I...maybe I'll have mum, too.

It isn't fair, not to everyone with the bad families. Bt I know that I'm lucky. And um. Think I've started babbling. Sorry.

[cool_vamp]

Tell me about it. But yeah, most of my family is... okay, my aunts, my mom and a couple of my siblings. But your Mom and the kids, they're something else. Best family I got.

Of course you have your Mom. She's nuts about you :)

Don't worry, babbling, I'm used to.
