The right place?

[Ian Hunt]

"Yeah, it'd help if I could remember her name though. I know you wouldn't which'd make me freak out even more and did you have to tell me that?"

[Madeline Speare]

"Wow you don't remember her name? That's sad...er well I shouldn't talk, keeping track of my cousin's names is pretty hard, and yes I had to tell you that, I don't like keeping things from you unless I have too, and I like talking about my family, makes me happy."

[Ian Hunt]

"Oh no, I remember. Cilla. Name was Cilla. Drucilla Hunt. Well, okay then, talk about your family. Just not falling from heights cos that freaks me out."

[Madeline Speare]

"Drucilla? Ugh, no wonder she bit people I would have too if I had a name like that. We had pretty normal names in my family..er what else to talk about my family...how most were all brunettes or redheads? How Unlce Barry told the best stories when he was drunk or how Davey had an obession with the cloak, okay I won't talk about heights with you, that's me and Charlie's thing anyway."

[Ian Hunt]

"They all had weird names in my family. Lucky I got to keep mine when they took me in. The cloak?"

[Madeline Speare]

"Yeah few odds ones, Magnolia, Gertrude, Aunt Vivian said my name was a hooker's name, yeah the cloak. The grim reaper? Davey...was a bit odd. Fascinated by death and such, once told me and Charlie a story that we had to pick up every sickle we saw or the cloak would come after us, really scary the way he told it, I didn't believe it but Charlie..scared him something awful."

[Ian Hunt]

"A hooker's name? Nice that. Oh...right...okay. That is kind of odd, but you said he was sick for a long time, didn't you? Guess that made him that way, or something, you know the death obsession."

[Madeline Speare]

"Yeah thanks. Aunt Vivian, vile old hag. We had no clue he was sick, his death was just so sudden. Charlie took it the hardest. I guess that might explain it."

[Ian Hunt]

"Might explain what?"

[Madeline Speare]

"The whole death obession, he and Charlie...they were so fixed on it. The drawing Davey had in his room...he was a great guy. Miss him everyday. Miss everyone really, the twins, all eight of them, trying to trick the rest of us that they were the other twin, me Rory and Manny fighting over who had the best hair, the boys wrestling out on the front lawn."

[Ian Hunt]

"How many are left? Just you and Owens?"

[Madeline Speare]

"Basically, I mean they're probably a few of us here and there but most of us.." I trail off."I know for a fact Aunt Viv's still alive, evil hag should have kicked the bucket a century ago."

[Ian Hunt]

"Should have? Kind of harsh."

[Madeline Speare]

"She deserves it, called my mother a worthless bitch and that my da disgraced the family name by marrying her."

[Ian Hunt]

"Okay yeah, she deserves it."

[Madeline Speare]

I nod,"Think there's a few of my cousin's left. I'm not sure."

[Ian Hunt]

"Think there's 5 of my entire family left. Something to be thankful for."

[Madeline Speare]

"Only five? Well you didn't have a big family did you?"

[Ian Hunt]

"41 turned up to family gatherings. I counted. It was really boring."

[Madeline Speare]

"41! Jesus Christ...I know we had more then that."

[Ian Hunt]

"Yeah, well my family sucks. Just me, Rowan and Cilla and then a load of creepy old men with weird names and evil old women who liked to yell at us to stand up straight. Glad there's only 5 of us left."

[Madeline Speare]

I laugh,"Oh god been told to stand up staight, I heard that a lot growing up, mainly from my aunt's and grandmother Malfoy, my family was pretty close."

[Ian Hunt]

"I don't think we even knew most of each other's names. Except Lucian. He knew everybody's name and he used to hit everyone round the back of the legs with this piece of wood and then yell right in their ear. He was fucking scary. But then he did that to Cilla and no one saw him anymore. I think she actually might have killed him. That was even more scary. So there you go, your family was close and mine killed each other and no one said anything about it."

[Madeline Speare]

"Hit everyone with a piece of wood? Ouch. No one really hit each other unless it was nesscary, or the guys were fighting over something stupid like usual. Family was all we had during these darks times. It meant a lot to all of us."

[Ian Hunt]

"Must have been nice."

[Madeline Speare]

"Watching the boys wrestle was entertaining." I laugh,"There was only about six girls and I stuck with my guy cousins alot."

[Ian Hunt]

"They just stood around and talked so I went outside and got dragged back in about six times before they just left me alone. There was a hole in the fence at the very back of the grounds but it was about a 10 minute walk there because it was so stupidly big so me and Rowan would have to run and try not to get caught and I'd always have to shove him through the fence because he'd always freak out about getting caught and crucio-ed and try and turn back. That's about all I remember about family reunions apart from Cilla biting and killing people."

[Madeline Speare]

"I remember being tickled alot." I laugh,"That and food fights, or being on top of one of my cousins shooulders, that was always great. Never a dull moment, not even when all the parent's got dunk, they'd all start singing really loud and off key."

[Ian Hunt]

I laugh, "Nice."

[Madeline Speare]

"My mum was the only one who could really sing." I smile,"She had a beautiful voice."
