"But, what about what you said... about you know," he began, pausing to clear his
throat, "Mia and me?"
"That I was aware of your amorous activities with my daughter? Oh, you sweet boy,
you really embrace being a Gryffindor, don't you?"
Sirius felt like he was being insulted.
"Nothing happens in this manor without my knowledge, dear. The moment Mia
stepped foot into your bedroom I was made aware."
"And you're not going to...? I don't know.. ."
"Threaten your life for daring to put your filthy hands on my precious baby girl?
Hardly." She laughed, uncrossing and re-crossing her ankles.
The movement startled him a bit, and he hoped that she was unaware of the way
he flinched in response. He doubted it.
"It was Mia in your room, not the other way around, was it not? I doubt very much
that my daughter entered your bedroom without knowing that you bedding her was a
possibility. There were Silencing Charms thrown up, after all. Hers?" Dorea set her now
empty teacup on the tray in front of them before leaning back slightly to relax into the
chair, delicate fingers laced together on her lap as she observed him closely.
Sirius nodded. "Yes, ma'am."
"Good girl. Very considerate of her."
He just gaped at the woman. How was she so casual about this? He had expected
to be hexed within an inch of his life. Instead, Dorea Potter was smirking at him after
outright admitting she knew Mia and Sirius had sex, and that she had known the very
moment her daughter had stepped foot into his bedroom. Not only that, she allowed it to
happen and was grateful that Mia was thoughtful enough to put up the bloody Silencing
Charms?!
Sirius shook his head in disbelief. "You're not upset? Mrs Potter, how are you not
upset?"
Dorea frowned, an expression of distaste crossing her features. "Am I back to 'Mrs
Potter' again? Oh, dear. So formal. As I've told you since you were a boy, you may call me
'Dorea' or even 'Mum' if it pleases you." She laughed softly, a sly sparkle in her eyes. "It's
always pleased me, considering how amusing Walburga's face would look should she ever
hear that."
