The ae for the roa ae. This is like 28 now right?

"Then you should know that I'm not changing my mind any time soon, as I'm also a Gryffindor," Lyssa said.

"I'm suronded my Gryffindors, oh dear." She grinned wickedly.

Lyssa shook her head. "Child..."

"And so what if I am?"

"Then you just admitted that you're stupid."

"No I did not. I'm hypothicly agreeing with you. Whats it got to do with it if I am?"

Lyssa shrugged. "I dunno. I was just saying that if you were admitting to being a child you were admitting to being stupid."

"Children arne't always stupid."

"What makes you say that?"

(and why the hell are they discussing the stupidity of children?)

"Because it's being judgemental. T'would be like me saying all Death Eaters are idiots who liked to kill people. It just doesnj't work that way."

"But most of them are," Lyssa said, getting slightly tired of this conversation. "With the occassional exception."

"Prehaps," Taylor said starting to hum to herself.

"Perhaps what?"

Taylor just ignored her and continued to sing under her breath now. "Earth to Taylor?" Remus said waving his hand in front of her face. She poked her tongue out at him.

"This isn't going anywhere," Lyssa muttered. "How about we call it done, and you two leave?"

"How about we don't," Remus said. "Well I don't know about you Remus but I do have two seven year olds and a shop to look after so in fact," She looked at her watch, which was one of those ones on a necklace. "I should have left like," She scrunched her nose. "Half a minute ago."

"Good, then go."

Taylor went, singing to herself leaving Lyssa and Remus in the room. Remus attempted to get the Gryffindor to talk but again like the day before the girl didn't say a word. Finally get fed up with it he dragged her back to the cellar.

This process continued on for another week, but neither Remus, nor Taylor could get any useful information from Lyssa. All they would get was the same old thng; her telling them she wasn't going to say anything, and her being annoyed, and so on.

After that week or so Taylor took a few days off from the Order. One day she spent in the shop and the other she took the twins out for the day near the beach. The three of them had a blast, building sandcastles (Taylors was biggest) and then seeing who could knock over the sandcastles quickest without their getting knocked over in the profess.

Taylor came into work the next day with a shell necklace that Ami had made, finding shells on the beach with holes in them.

Lyssa was beyond miserable. Her arms and wrists hurt like hell, after having been tied for over a week now.

Taylor had to take the kids with her to the Order the next day, the person who usaully babysat them for most of the day was sick and Taylor couldn't get anyone else. And she didn't trust the kids enough to leave them at home. She told them sternly that they had to behave themselves and very much oped that they would. She got a raised eyebrow from Remus when he saw the two of them but after a chat with McGonagallshe said that the kids were welcome to stay as long as they stayed out of everyone's way.

For a couple days now, Lyssa hadn't been dragged from the cellar (because Taylor wasn't aruond, and Remus finally figured out she was the only that could get Lyssa to talk at all), but today she was.

"Ami," Colin shouted running after his sister who had ducked out of the room Taylor told them to stay in. "Tay said we weren't allowed out." he turned a corner and lost site of his sister for a moment but glimsped her turning a corner. He nearly ran into her as he next turned the corner as she had stopped in her tracks. The two children looked at the two people in the hallway. A man and a young girl, with her arms tied behind her back and literally get dragged along. "That isn't very nice," Ami told him looking at the girl. She looked around seventeen. Around ten years older then she was.

Lyssa looked at the children, scowling, since that was what she had been doing before at Remus, the look still on her face. "Well," she said to them, "he's not very nice either."
