“Thank you so much, anything to stop the itching.” She said, clutching the strap of her purse to keep from itching herself. “Do have any idea what this might be?”

[afxllenstar-blog]

“Perhaps. I’ve seen one other similar case this week.” She said, making a few more notations. She pulled out a potion from a nearby shelf. “Drink this. It should relieve the itching. And...may I ask...were you by chance at Zonko’s at all?” She asked. The other case she’d seen involved the joke shop.

“No, not at the moment. But I do need something for my father, he has a bit of a cold.”

“Oh sure. A Pepper Up Potion should help with that. I’ll give you a few other remedies just in case.” She said, gathering them. “If it gets more serious, do have him come in.”

“Oh, it is. I mean, ok, it’s mainly paperwork, but I can deal with paperwork” Alison laughed awkwardly. “St. Mungo’s? Wow, that must be incredibly hard work, I mean, of course it is, what am I saying. Everything there is supper complex, I guess, well, maybe not being a janitor… I’m rambling, sorry.”

[afxllenstar-blog]

“Paperwork can be a bit tedious.” The witch replied. “Oh, yes it is, but it’s very enjoyable.” She offered the woman a smile. “Don’t worry. You actually remind me a bit of my daughter.” She said, warmly. “I happen to be quite fond of rambling.”

“Yeah… I’ve been purple for three hours and I’m not sure why? Also it won’t stop and I’ve been getting progressively itchier. I think something might be growing on my back? I was in just about every shop on the Alley today so it’ could be anything. Please help.”

“Oh dear...” This certainly wasn’t good. “Uh, have a seat. I’m going to run a few routine tests. This won’t hurt a bit.” Andromeda waved her wand over the girl after saying a few spells. She then made a few notations. “Alright, I’m going to get you a potion to stop the itching first of all.”

“Hmm? Oh, I, uh, I work at the Ministry, Muggle Liaison Office, you?”

[afxllenstar-blog]

“I work at St. Mungo’s.” She replied. “The Muggle Liaison Office. That sounds quite interesting. My husband is a muggleborn. He works with me.”

[afxllenstar-blog]

“Welcome to St. Mungo’s. You’re in need of a healer?”

[timothyhobbs-deactivated2016050]

“Each to their own, I guess,” Alison shrugged in return. “I mean, we all have different things in our lives, and maybe they affect it?”

[afxllenstar-blog]

“I suppose you’re right.” She said, nodding. “Anyway, Alison, what do you do?” She asked, curiously.

“You as well. I’ll have your order ready by Friday if you want to pick it up then, any time.”

[afxllenstar-blog]

“I’ll be here. Thanks again.”

[aurordora-blog]

This was an argument Tonks and her mother could never finish because both refused to surrender. “I’m not overdoing it,” she asserted, in a tone she’d used frequently as a young teenager. She had wanted to be patient with her mother but when she called her by her first name she couldn’t stop her automatic response of an eye roll and a groan. Nymphadora. Honestly, she was still dumbfounded as to why her mom had picked the name. “And I’m being safe… as safe as an Auror can be.” Tonks didn’t have the restraint to withhold that last part, though for the sake of her poor mother’s nerves she knew she should have. But she couldn’t sugarcoat that her job was dangerous. Even if the Ministry and the wizarding world didn’t want to believe Harry Potter’s story that Voldemort had returned, it was still common knowledge that there were many Death Eaters who weren’t locked up in Azkaban. “Please don’t worry about me. I know it’s like your job and you take it seriously but I’m a big girl, I can handle myself!” To prove this Tonks morphed herself about six inches taller so that she wasn’t standing at her usual minuscule height of 5′2.

[afxllenstar-blog]

“I know that. I know you’re an adult, and I know it’s your job. But, you’re not invincible, love.” She reminded her. “Some of the best aurors I knew, Frank and Alice Longbottom? They’re in St. Mungo’s now. It’s not about how good you are at your job. Voldemort, Bellatrix, they will destroy anything and everything good that they can. My cousin went to prison for a crime he didn’t commit! My friends are dead!” She took a deep breath. “Nymphadora, you are the most precious thing in the world to me. So, yes, I will worry, and I will nag, and I will be your mother. Because I have watched far too many die. I won’t bury you along with them.”

[clairepippin-deactivated2016042]

She admitted defeat with a little smile. “Well, I can almost always be found hanging around here…”  

[afxllenstar-blog]

“Wonderful. I’ll pass along the message. It was very nice to meet you.” She replied.

[timothyhobbs-deactivated2016050]

“No, no, it’s nice, really” Alison back-pedalled, suddenly anxious she had said the wrong thing. “If it helps at all, I think a lot of people don’t like their name, I know I hated mine growing up.”

[afxllenstar-blog]

“I wish she could see that. There is nothing wrong with her name.” She insisted. “Really? I loved my name. I always thought it was very unique.” Was it normal for people to hate their names? She made a mental note to ask Ted if he’d hated his.

[aurordora-blog]

Tonks jumped when she heard that all too familiar chiding voice of her mother telling her for the umpteenth time that she was working too hard. “I’m fine Mum,” she parroted out with a sigh. “There’s way too much going on for me to take a break.” She was still the new Auror on the block and couldn’t afford to take time off, even if it was only for a few hours rest.

[afxllenstar-blog]

“Perhaps you are now, but you don’t want to overdo it.” She pointed out. “And I know that look. I’m not being overprotective. I’m your mother and I have the right to worry about you, Nymphadora. Especially in your line of work. Your father and I love you and we want you to be safe.”

[clairepippin-deactivated2016042]

“Oh, that’s not necessary, I’d be surprised if he remembered me at all…” It would have probably been more polite to just go along with it, but Claire couldn’t help herself.

[afxllenstar-blog]

“Nonsense. Ted is quite fond of his school days. And you are very lovely. I’m sure he remembers you.” She insisted.

[timothyhobbs-deactivated2016050]

“Andromeda Tonks? Like, Tonks Tonks? I kinda have this visual of her popping up from around a corner to kill me if I say her first name” Alison laughed awkwardly before remembering herself. “Oh, Merlin, right, sorry, I’m Alison. Pleasure to meet you.”

[afxllenstar-blog]

She rolled her eyes lightly. “Nymphadora. The name I gave her. Honestly, I don’t understand what her problem is with the name. I think it’s lovely.” She said, a bit of annoyance in her tone. “Sorry, I got off track. It’s very nice to meet you, Alison.”

[clairepippin-deactivated2016042]

She smiled, happy that Ted had found someone who seemed to be just as affable as he had been. “I should have guessed.” She deposited the money into the till. “I hope you both have been well.”

[afxllenstar-blog]

“Yes. We have indeed, thank you. I’ll have him stop by and say hello.” She replied, with a smile. “Ted’s always looking to catch up with his former classmates.”

[eliza-proudfoot-blog]

“Hope it was all good things.” she said with a light chuckle. “It’s a pleasure to finally meet you. Your daughter is quite good at her job.” she complimented. 

[afxllenstar-blog]

“Oh indeed.” She replied. “Yes, she’s quite remarkable. I must admit I do worry quite a bit, but I know the auror department is very lucky to have her.”
