▲ The fast approaching sound of Callisto's footsteps made Mina more excited than she thought it would. There weren't any laws being broken and Evy had made the decision for herself. Something about defying her sister when they weren't in their apartment made it that much better. With the cigarette lit, Mina stepped back and watched as Cal rounded the corner, looking like she had bolted down the street to both stop the smoking and to escape the neighbor. "Mi...na..." she huffed out while trying to catch her breath. It looked like she wanted to chastise more, but all the wires in her head were getting crossed while Evy and Sarah spoke back to back. Mina watched on, biting down onto her lower lip to keep herself from grinning. A stressed Callisto wasn't fun, except when they all ganged up on her. It was almost like when they were growing up again. Sarah's comment seemed to be the one that triggered an immediate response, surprisingly. The drinking was obviously a more serious problem than Evy smoking, and it looked like Callisto agreed. "We'll talk about this later you two," she warned both Mina and Evy, before turning around to head back towards the house. Mina shot her younger sister a mischievous look, eyebrows dancing as she kept a lid on her laughter. "Can't wait for mum junior to read us the riot act," she said under her breath. The eagle-eyed Callisto had powers just like their mother: a sixth sense for trouble and bad mouthing. Being too loud while she was still outside was practically inviting a tongue-twisting hex to forcefully shut them up. She'd do it too. "At least she has her priorities right?" Mina reasoned as she reached down and scratched between her dog's ears. They still had a walk to finish, and all three dogs seemed like they were bored of sniffing the same spot now. "Probably sees her future in mum. Empty wine bottles and misery."MADE BY VEL OF GS + ADOX 2.0

While you were out building other worlds where was I? Evelyn was surprised that Callisto’s hand was immediately in her face removing the cigarette from her mouth. She took a slow drag, trying her best to ignore the urge to cough. Sarah and Mina made it look so easy, as did others. Cal was angry, out of breath. A slight flush in her cheeks that was a combination of the cold and her anger. But it was a face Evelyn knew well. And usually, Mina was involved somehow. Sarah, however, made a valid point—their mother was likely on her second bottle by now. Envy glanced at her watch casually. Her mother was nothing if consistent when it came to her wine habit.
Callisto was the middle child, yet she was in charge most of the time. As she glared and warned Evy and Mina, Callisto turned and headed toward the house. Mina honestly looked like a kid on Christmas. ”I don’t think I’ve seen her that angry since the time she caught you teaching me swear words when I was seven.” It was around the time Evy had noted how empty the house was when all her siblings were off at Hogwarts while she waited for her turn. But Evy only shrugged. Their mother hadn’t drunk like this before Dakoda died.
”Does she drink as much as mum?” Evy asked, almost forgetting her cigarette for a moment. But for a moment, Evy was a little concerned. She wasn’t nearly as close to Callisto as the other two. ”Dad won’t care about this, though.” Evy spoke as she slightly waved her cigarette to motion toward it. ”He’s always at work anyway.” Their father working that hard was not unusual. Their parents had to work hard to provide for five children. But still. With her cigarette almost finished, Evy looked at her sisters. They should probably finish their walk now and prepare themselves to deal with their mother and Callisto.

December 23, 2026 The dynamics in their family were hardly "normal", not that they had ever been. With Callisto as the "responsible one" (which was really just code for her putting a damper on anything and everything), that had somehow turned the three of them—Sarah, Evelyn, and Mina—into the best of friends… at least until the next argument, which wouldn't take very long.
Evelyn asked if Callisto drank as much as their mother did, and Sarah eyed Mina, wondering which one of them would have to shed Callisto's good girl image. Fortunately, however, Evelyn mentioned that their father wouldn't care about her having one lousy cigarette, since he was always at work.
"Yeah, he won't care when he hasn't taken his Wolfsbane Potion and has to transform completely," Sarah grumbled. There was an irony there, considering that she wouldn't have been taking the potion, either, if maintaining her job and staying out of trouble weren't essentially tied to it.

▲ Evy could count herself lucky that she hadn't seen Callisto absolutely blow her lid on anything recently. Things had been okay over the last few years, aside from when Mina brought Rue round the apartment and they went a little too far with whatever the potion of the week was. Having a mad scientist of a drug dealing best friend didn't always hold over well when sharing a flat with a sibling. At least they usually contained the insanity to Mina's room, keeping any open potion flasks or paraphernalia out in the open. Last thing she needed was Callisto having Sebastian for the weekend and illegal...stuff littering the coffee table in the living room. Usually Rue wasn't allowed over when the nephew was, and for good reason. "She uhh...gets like that sometimes. Probably doesn't help that I accidentally killed her favorite plant the other day by giving it the wrong growth formula," Mina admitted. In her defense, the bottles hadn't been labeled and she sucked at keeping anything alive aside from herself and Titania. She puffed the rest of her cigarette away and stamped on it before continuing the dog walk. Mutually dumping on Callisto right now sort of made it easier to deal with Sarah hovering over them, but it did mean she still had to have her little heart to heart with Evy at a later point. As for Callisto's drinking, Mina nodded her head, "More, I'd say. But like, over the course of the week and she definitely handles it better than mum does. Depends on the day, really." It had increased since Hogwarts burned, and Mina honestly couldn't blame her for that. Just hearing about the things seen that night, between Evy and Callisto (and she supposed Sarah too, but frankly didn't care what she had to say on it because her appearance at the castle was suspicious as fuck), had given her nightmares. Being inside the school during it and dealing with the aftermath sounded horrifying. The only good thing to happen in the past few minutes, aside from getting under Callisto's skin again, was that Sarah had made her remember that tonight was the full moon. Now was better than ever to go through all the details about Dakoda, especially with the three non-werewolfs having until sunrise to talk about it. "What time is the turn tonight?" she directed her question to Sarah, though refused to look at her as Titania started to pull on the leash back in the direction of the house.

While you were out building other worlds where was I? Sarah didn’t answer her question about Callisto, but Evy hadn’t expected her to since Mina was her roommate. Still, Evy knew that even Sarah was privy to more information than even she was. But, Evelyn had spent enough time around stressed-out students to know that they needed something to take the edge off sometimes. It could have been firewhiskey, cigarettes, sex, or any number of coping mechanisms. Surely someone as uptight and high-strung as Callisto needed something. Evy’s eyebrow raised slightly. Callisto throw a fit over a plant? Well, it wasn’t too far out of the realm of possibility.
Evy was done with her cigarette. Even though it was a chance to bond with her sisters, it didn’t mean she really enjoyed this particular activity. It wasn’t something she saw the appeal of, or she just hadn’t smoked enough cigarettes. Following Mina’s lead, Evy dropped the finished cigarette on the ground. Evelyn still had that vivid memory of them at that young age. Mina would have been in her early years at Hogwarts while Dakota was on the verge of graduating. Callisto had stormed in and all but tackled Mina when she heard those words being repeated, and Mina only happily encouraged Evelyn.
Seeing their mother so friendly with the bottles of wine she stocked up on was normal, but it didn’t mean it was easy to accept. Evy pulled on one of the dog’s leashes as they scooted forward eagerly to inspect the discarded cigarette butts. ”Whatever helps, I guess…” Evy managed to mumble as she made sure the leashes weren’t wrapped around her legs and as she pushed her hair out of her face. Sarah brought up a good point that their father was incredibly late, which was worrisome on the night of a full moon. ”Do you think he’ll just stay at the place in Horizont?” It had happened before, and their father would never endanger them in such a way. Evy looked at Sarah for some kind of confirmation. ”I got an earful from Mum last time he did.” It was more wine-induced ranting. Harmless, really—but very much something Callisto had learned from her.

December 23, 2026 Outwardly, at least, Evelyn remained relatively casual about all of the family nonsense, including the possibility that their father had chosen to go to Claustrum de Lupus in Horizont Alley instead of coming home. Sarah wondered why she hadn't had that idea first, but it was too late for that. She wasn't about to pop out to Horizont Alley, but it was a thought. Besides, at least she could curl up in wolf form and sleep instead of being driven mad by whatever the other werewolves who didn't have a place to go spent their time doing in what was—in Sarah's mind—akin to being in prison again.
Mina asked what time the transformation was that night, and Sarah answered her without having to think about it. "One twenty-eight in the bloody morning. And yeah, if Dad misses his Wolfsbane, he'll go to the inn." Better his being there and in reinforced protection from himself than out somewhere, from the perspective of keeping the public safe or… whatever, thought Sarah. Mostly, she just wanted to get the monthly transformation over with. She couldn't have fun with it anymore, so it was really more of a drag.
There was a bright side to her and their parents' being werewolves, though, as Sarah pointed out, her words more directed to Evelyn. "…At least Mum'll stop drinking when it's time to transform?" She couldn't see her still lapping up wine afterwards.

▲ Mina had sort of assumed their dad had brought his wolfsbane potion with him to work just in case, though it was sounding like she was on the more optimistic side of things. "At least there's that new potion available now. I read about it in the Prophet a month or two ago," Mina mused. What was it called again? Awake-Wolf? It really didn't matter to her what potion her family members took as long as it worked and they were safe during the full moon. There was enough stigma that they dealt with just for being on the list, and they didn't need any more of that. It was like in school when kids would say stupid shit to her about werewolves, either not knowing who her family was or simply not caring. Things had changed over the last few years though, and she hoped public perception would get even better with the new potion on the shelves. She knew the potioneers that developed it worked at Slug & Jiggers right across the street, so one of these days she'd have to get them something as thanks. Baked goods from the Pi Patisserie always went over well with the shop workers of Diagon. "Out like a light whether it's wine or wolf," Mina mumbled to herself as Titania dragged her across the street and ti the closest patch of grass. That would be the best time for her and Cal to talk to Evy after all, assuming they could all manage to stay awake until then. If things were going fine and their dad got back in time and he'd drunk his potion, then down into the locked basement they'd go. Barricading the rest of the house was always fun growing up, as nothing ever happened and it typically ended up being just the three non-werewolves sleeping in the same room together. "Silver lining is that it won't be too long of a transformation. Better to be closer to sunrise than not." She didn't even know what she was saying anymore, mostly just trying to fill the empty void with words until they got back to the house. MADE BY VEL OF GS + ADOX 2.0

While you were out building other worlds where was I? Some of the muggleborn students had told Evy about how werewolves were perceived in books and other media by muggles. It was a fascinating take though she wasn’t nearly as fascinated by the students who learned that werewolves were, in fact, real. But for the family, it was something entirely normal. And Evelyn had never thought of it any other way. Growing up, their parents, Dakoda and Sarah, always had a potion, and the full moon was routine. ”There is?” Evy looked at Mina. She hadn’t heard of this potion, but she wasn’t up to date on events. Ever since Hogwarts burned to the ground, Evy had to stop keeping up with the news and letting her mind wander down that path. ”What’s so different about it?”
Maybe she should start reading the Prophet again. Plus, when Evy was shipped off back to France, it was like a connection back home. But the last time she’d tried to read an article over the summer—the front page had a dramatic photo of the chaos of that day. Hogwarts was on fire, people running around as they tried to feature the Aurors and other people in charge. Evelyn had been overcome with anxiety and hadn’t managed to look at it again. As they neared the house again, the dogs began to pull a little harder on the leashes. It was starting to get a little dark and much chillier. Evy tightened her jacket around herself a bit more.
Evy could only nod. Mina had a valid point. And as they walked toward the front door, Evy realized that this was the first time the three of them had been in the proximity of one another willingly since they’d all come to check on Evy after Hogwarts. It was…nice, even with Callisto’s usual antics. A small smile crept onto her face as she enjoyed the moment, but then it faded as the front door opened and she spotted her remaining sister. She had the same pointed look, but she heard her father’s voice in the background. As well as her mother’s and what sounded like glass breaking.

December 23, 2026 Mina brought up that new potion, Aware Wolf, without mentioning it by name, although Sarah knew that that was definitely what she was talking about. It had gotten a lot of press for obvious reasons; the invention of Wolfsbane Potion had been an historic achievement, and building upon that was certainly impressive. Sarah, though, didn't care too much. The Wolfsbane still worked, did more than she really needed it to, and didn't cost the arm and a leg that Aware Wolf probably would unless St. Mungo's were able to give it out for free.
Evelyn asked what was so different about it, and Sarah shrugged. As the sole werewolf of the three of them, she probably should have known what actually distinguished it from the potion she'd been choking down against her will for too much of her life, but she saw no point in switching. It was probably just a posh way of labeling the same old thing, anyway. "F**k if I know," Sarah answered. Magical Interpol kept her busy enough that she had an excuse not to know, yet Mina seemed to be the one who had picked up on the latest. She probably watched Witch TV while standing around at work, Sarah guessed. "Maybe it'll make Mum realize you're all posh and an adult now since you've been at Beauxbatons?"

▲ Their discussion in the new wolfsbane should have continued past what it did, but they were about to be busy getting the three dogs inside. Every single time it was a fight, because they either tangled their leashes on one another (or the legs of whomever was closest), or one of them refused to go inside. Tonight, it seemed like the chosen one was Titania, who was stalling like she always did when trying to get her back inside. Mina had dealt with this behavior frequently over the years and usually just dragged her dog inside. Once she was past the threshold of the door, she didn't care about continuing the walk anymore. The problem was getting her there though, because she weighed over forty pounds and Mina was stupidly weak. Lifting boxes of books all day did not help her in the slightest for some reason. Tugging on her dog's leash as the other two seemed to be heading inside, she heard the front door open and a subsequent crash. Frozen in a stupid position, one hand on her dog's collar, the other with the leash wrapped around the arm for leverage, Mina's head whipped around towards the front door. Evy had stopped as well, and all three dogs had followed the lead, probably interested in whatever had caused that noise. Titania's ears had perked right up, her head turning to the side inquisitively. Damn dog always picking the weirdest times to look cute. In the doorway was Callisto, who seemed to be retreating from the house quickly. From inside, harsh voices coming from their parents. "The hell did you say to them when you walked in Cal?" Mina teased her, but the grin on her face disappeared as she heard something else break inside. Callisto wasn't saying anything, but continued to back up from the front door. "Okay, what the fuck is going on?" she asked more seriously, grabbing onto her shoulder. Still no response. MADE BY VEL OF GS + ADOX 2.0

While you were out building other worlds where was I? They all seemed frozen in place. Evy had stopped because of the sound of glass breaking, Mina was trying to force her willful dog into the house, and Sarah waited for them. But Callisto’s face was different from the general, exasperated look she wore around her family. Evelyn looked back to Mina as she made a joke about the situation, but Callisto wasn’t laughing. ”What is—wait, when did dad get home?” It had taken Evy a moment to register that she heard her father’s voice, but they hadn’t heard anyone apparate nearby. Oh, but of course, floo powder. Evy always managed to forget that—like it was some antiquated and messy form of travel compared to apparating or even a portkey.
There was a slight whine from the dogs, Evy looked down, and they simply stared at the door. A small part of Evy wasn’t totally surprised. Stella was a talkative drunk, and sometimes that was a happy string of nostalgic or sentimental words strung together into a run-on sentence until she fell asleep. Other times the words were a little harsher but overall tolerable. This, however, was something new. There was a distinct string of swear words from their mother. Evy took a hesitant sidestep to see if she could peer through the front door but couldn’t really see anything.
‘..Dakoda…’ It was like hearing your name in a crowded room amongst all the noisy chatter. Evy instinctively looked at Sarah. She didn’t know why she did, but obviously, the conversation topic was them or their late brother. Evy had stopped listening so hard to the words being yelled for a moment.

December 23, 2026 The chaos hadn't been her fault, and Callisto was the only one of the four of them who had been inside on whom they could blame it. Except it wasn't Callisto who was making such a racket, it was their mother. No, it was both of their parents. That was great. If they hadn't deluded themselves into thinking that it might be a decent Christmas, well… Exhibit A was presented right before them, with Mina trying to get past Callisto and into the house.
Sarah instinctively drew her wand, standing as close to Evelyn as she could. If something would be going down, she didn't need to get caught up in it.
At the mention of Dakoda's name, Sarah bristled. Why in Merlin's name were their parents arguing about something to do with their dead brother? Whatever it was, Sarah realized that maybe she was the one who didn't need to get in the middle of it, all things considered.
Evelyn was staring straight at her, and Sarah looked down. She was amazed that the dogs hadn't bolted. Even they seemed stunned. She thought about backing away while she still could because she could, but then she would have to wait to find out why Callisto was so determined to keep them out of the house.
"…F**k." Sarah gritted her teeth, clenching her jaw. They could at least go inside the house and stay warm while eavesdropping. Merlin.

▲ The combined confusion between the four of them and the restlessness of the dogs, who were now starting to whine because they could see the inside but weren't being let in, was palpable. At least the neighbor hadn't zoomed back outside to try his French on them again. Even he understood the gravity of whatever this was. Callisto had the look of a deer in headlights, shellshocked almost, and had made a sizable move from where she'd been at the doorway. Still, she prevented them from going inside the house. Their mother's voice carrying louder than normal gave away that she was plastered now, and Mina assumed that meant she had probably been drinking prior to coming home and they'd merely missed the signs. Diving straight into the bottle and continuing wherever she'd left off. The dueling voice of their dad clearly wasn't happy, and she wondered how much of this was fueled by the moon that was still a few hours away. Emotions had often times flared the night of. Dakoda's name had slipped out a few times and graced their ears, unpleasantly so, but the way Callisto reacted to it was not the sort of way that said this was regarding his death. If that had been the case, she would have been right there with them, yelling about Sarah. Her retreat outside meant this was something else. "Cal, seriously, what are they arguing about?" Mina pressed again, her grip tightening on her sister's shoulder. Being left out of the loop like this was ridiculous, and if this was just another run of the mill argument, she didn't care. Dropping the dogs off and disapparating home was just as easy to do. When she tried to step towards the house though, Callisto's arm shot out and blocked her way. Mina didn't even attempt to push it away, because the look on her face said that this was actually serious. "Mum is loaded right now and she...she started going in on him when he got home. About Dakoda again. And...and how Dakoda isn't his..." Mouth wide open in shock, Mina's brain short-circuited and she couldn't figure out how to respond to that bomb drop.

While you were out building other worlds where was I? Evelyn had to admit it was alarming that not even Callisto dared go near the front door again. As the sister who was the most like their mother, Evy always saw Cal as a little bit fearless when dealing with her. But not this time. They all stared as wide-eyed as they might have if they were still young children. Evy hadn’t seen her mother so belligerent in some time, but typically Sebastian was with them for family events. She would never be in front of her only grandchild. Mina tried desperately to get information from Callisto. ”Cal—“ Evy grabbed her sister’s arm near her elbow and tugged it, just like she’d always done when she was younger, to get her attention.
Their brother’s name was mentioned repeatedly, and their father sounded so angry. A lump of anxiety was forming in Evy’s throat. Were they arguing about his death? At least on a normal day, Evy could pretend she had a happy family, but when such events were occurring right in front of them—it was hard to pretend. The reality was loud and frightening, and she tried to look to her sisters for some kind of comfort, but they were all just confused. Mina, frustrated, began to march toward the house, and if she had been walking any fast, Callisto would have clotheslined her.
The first part of what Callisto said wasn’t shocking. Dakoda always came up when Mum drank too much. Though only Evelyn was around to really see it. But the last part…Evy looked at Callisto, mouth slightly open in shock. ”Wait—what?” She must have heard that incorrectly. There was no way that was true. Evy knew their parent's story just as well as the rest did. ”Why would mum say that…” Evy mumbled as she thought out loud. Evy fidgeted where she stood. Mum must have just been angry with dad. That must be it. The full moon was approaching, she’d been drinking, and he was home late—that must be it, right? Hadn’t enough already happened to their family? Evy hesitantly glanced at her sisters. ”Should we…stop them...or something?” Well maybe Sarah or Callisto, though Evy was old enough to use magic outside of school now but as she heard more glass break she found herself taking a half-step back.

December 23, 2026 After some pressure from Mina, Callisto explained what it was that their parents were in there arguing about: Their mother was telling their father that Dakoda wasn't his child. With their mother as drunk and angry as she was, though, Sarah's jaw didn't drop. Evelyn questioned if they needed to try to stop the argument, and Sarah glanced at Callisto. She was closest to it and hadn't yet.
Unsure if they could take their mother at her word under the circumstances, Sarah waited. They were making her interactions with Ares look positively polite, though at least it was abundantly clear from where she'd gotten her rage. The full moon didn't help matters, and their mother was probably just saying things she didn't mean to see if she could get a reaction out of their father. Obviously, that was working.
Whatever was being said in there was bad, and Sarah wished that she could have recorded it from the start. If anything were proof that she could parent Sebastian over her own parents, it was just behind Callisto. In a way, it was an unexpected Christmas present. They just had to get through the full moon first.
