miaxpotter​:

“I’m always careful,” she shook her head. “But I’m also not going to just stop being his friend. People will get over things.”

“I just don’t want you in the crosshairs until it does.”

[cordeliapotter]

miaxpotter​:

“I know,” she sighed quietly. 

“Just be careful, yeah?”

[cordeliapotter]

miaxpotter​:

Mia was quiet, considering her words, “Yeah, I suppose…”

She sighed. “I’m just worried, that’s all. I know how much your work means to you, I don’t want anything to jeopardize it.”

[cordeliapotter]

siennarowle​:

“You are so lucky,” she sighed.

“Oh, I know,” she hummed.

[cordeliapotter]

miaxpotter​:

“But they don’t know what he went through,” She shook her head, “I’m the closest that he has to that.”

“Maybe just keep it quiet, that’s all. I know it’s a shit thing to say, but,” she sighed.

[cordeliapotter]

miaxpotter​:

“Yes, the auror and the one who blames himself for what happened to Sirius,” Mia shook her head, “It’s not the same. He doesn’t have anyone he can talk to about what happened.”

“Regardless, they both love him,” she shook her head. 

[cordeliapotter]

siennarowle​:

“You never met him, right?” she asked, glancing back.

“Thankfully not,” she shook her head.

[cordeliapotter]

miaxpotter​:

“I can’t just stop hanging out with him, Cora,” she grimaced after a moment. “He doesn’t have anyone else.”

“He has James and Remus,” she shook her head.

[cordeliapotter]

siennarowle​:

“Definitely putting it mildly,” she nodded, rolling her eyes.

“Just a bit,” Cordelia nodded, chuckling.

[cordeliapotter]

miaxpotter​:

“Those are tabloids,” she argued weakly, knowing it wasn’t a very solid point.

“What is and isn’t true isn’t the point,” she shook her head. “And whether they admit it or not, people read those things.”

[cordeliapotter]

miaxpotter​:

“I just don’t understand where this is coming from,” she grimaced, sitting down in the nearby chair with a frown.

“I mean, you can’t tell me you don’t see what the papers say about him.”

[cordeliapotter]

siennarowle​:

“Merlin, no,” she laughed. “Rodolphus.”

“Ah,” she hummed, nodding. “That one did sound particularly shit.”

[cordeliapotter]

miaxpotter​:

“But people would have figured it out eventually if it’d gone on,” she shook her head. “Sirius is a Black, it’s not like he’s not influential. And now he’s in the Wizengamot. He could help us.”

“No, they wouldn’t. He’s private, no one knows who doesn’t need to know,” she grimaced. “I’mm not telling you what to do, M. I’m just saying.”

[cordeliapotter]

siennarowle​:

“Not even just the old ones,” Sienna scoffed, “You should have seen my ex.”

“Not Henri?” She asked, quirking an eyebrow.

[cordeliapotter]

miaxpotter​:

“How is this any different than you dating a werewolf?” She asked, shaking her head, “And Sirius and I aren’t even together.”

“No one really knows about Remus,” Cordelia shook her head, grimacing. “And we were only together for a few months.”

[cordeliapotter]

miaxpotter​:

“Wait- are you being serious?” Mia asked, shocked.

Cordelia paused, sitting up. “I just -- you’re at an important point in your career. And right now, whether or not we care to admit it, it matters what people think.”

[cordeliapotter]

siennarowle​:

“That’s literally what I said,” she shook her head with a sigh, “It’s maddening some days.”

“Old men are so set in their ways,” she sighed.
