"Tell Ian? You insanse? He'll go nuts and try something stupid." I mutter running a hand through my hair.
"I'm scared of him. Tom Avery, is not someone you should underestimate." I mutter,"He's a well known Death Eater. One of the best, you don't mess with someone like him."

I go still for a moment at Ian's name, before it finally clicks into place and I realize I probably knew that.
"You don't mess with Ian either... if you're talking about Chris, that is," I mutter, then shake my head. "And you have to try something, Maddie... tell your cousins, then."

"You've met him I'm guessing, Ian's not a bad guy, he's just..had a bad past is all." I mutter then shake my head.
"No, I can handle this, I don't need someone always trying to protect me."
Oh yeah, you can handle this, he comes to visit you and then you start freaking out and try to kill yourself the next day.

I eye her for a minute, then give a doubtful-yet-apologetic sort of smirk. "Sure you can," I say under my breath. "And... yeah, I knew him when we were kids," I say, not wanting to ignore what she said about Chris but also not wanting to go into the whole Logan situation... 'cause that would really help her out.

"Yeah, so you hate him or what? I don't care if you do." I say.
"It's just..I hate making people having to worry about me, you know?"

"I guess," I nod, not really sure if anyone ever has worried about me. "But... they're going to worry less if they know what's wrong and can start trying to help you, won't they?"
I hesitate over the first statement, then shrug. "And... and no. I guess I don't hate him anymore. But he can definitely... I think he'd be a help as well."

"I guess so." I mutter,"He can denfintly push buttons?" I supply for her,"Don't I know it, but, when you know him I like do, he's a good guy. And, yeah. I love him."

I laugh slightly. "Well, I was going to say that he can definitely... protect people he cares about." I bite my lip, thinking about how odd this situation is. "So... you'll get some help then?" I ask quietly, not wanting to drop it. "From somewhere?"

"Yeah, he's real good at that," I smile weakly.
"And sure, I'll get help. Promise."

I nod and let out a deep breath. "Good," I nod. "because I swear I'll check up on you.... Talk to Jack if I have to." I smile slightly.

"God not Jack." I laugh, tucking a strand of hair behind my ear,"I promise. Gryffindor Honor."

"Good," I nod again, smiling, as I fidget with a napkin.

"Don't say that." I laugh,"I've heard that word used too much in the past eight months."

I frown. "Oh... right... you said it reminds you of Ian," I nod. I fidget with the napkin some more.

"Yeah," I say noticing how she reacted when I talked about Ian,"So you said you met Jack while he was sticking his fingers into a cage?" I ask tryng to get off the subject.

"Wha... um... yes," I nod, laughing slightly. "I think he's planning to buy an owl that looks like your uncle Mortimer or somesuch... and let it loose in your house to make you smile."

I laugh,"Like Unlce Morty? Oh wow, Jack knows me too well. That would make me break out in giggles."

I laugh. "Ah... well, I sort of warned him you might kill him... don't know why he'd listen to me, though."

"He doesn't listen to anyone, only the little voices in his head." I laugh.

I laugh. "I have those..." I mutter. "Really bitter one and really naive one." Then I shake my head and smile.

"Mine are just really rude." I grin.

I laugh. "Rude to you or rude to others?"

"Both." I laugh.

"There's a wonderful trait..." I smile, something random tugging on my memory. "I met a girl named Morgan who said... I don't know, I think maybe she said that her voices make her very opinionated and want to share her opinions with others, but she's cursed with incomprehensibility... something like that." I pause. "I'm sorry... that was just a random thought."

"Yeah, think that's her," I nod. "Yeah... we had a little... not-quite-shouting-match in the library about Chris... I mean, Ian... so... yeah." I smile slightly. "Then I wised up and we turned civil."

"Civils good." I nod,"Call him Chris if you want. Doesn't bother me."

I shrug. "Well, if he changed his name I might as well try and call him that." I bite my lip a minute, then say what's been hovering in the back of my mind since I started fidgeting with the now-shredded napkin. "So do you know Logan Andrews?" I ask so quickly that a few of the words blur together.

My throat becomes usually dry as soon as she mentions Logan's name.
I nod slowly,"Yeah."

I swallow hard, noticing her expression. "Sorry," I say softly.
