JANUARY 5TH 2025
When Sarah came to Ares almost four years ago to tell him of her pregnancy, Ares Lestrange thought she was one crazy woman. The two had shared…One night together, sure enough filled with fun and evidently regrets. At the time, Ares panicked — having no clue how to raise a child nor even what he wanted for himself in life, hence his job resulting to something as low as a bartender and even a thriving thief. It would be difficult for him to even raise his son even now. But with the new year finally arriving and all of his problems…Well most out of the way, Ares decided it was now. He wanted to be that father figure Sebastian needed. Except there was one little problem.
Passing by Sarah’s old apartment…She wasn’t there. The place seemed to be raided empty as if no one had touched the place for months. It was all too confusing. So Ares knew where his best bet would be to get answer’s. From her sister Callisto. From the brief introductions around the Oliveira’s, Ares knew the other Oliveira female was a healer, completely and utterly different from what Sarah once was. Entering St. Mungos was rather easy and familiar, considering he spent a week or so cooped up in the place a year prior, thanks mum and dad.
Strolling to the nearby receptionist, he requested for Callisto’s office or even her current location — something the squealing goblin refused to give. But eventually, Ares found what he was looking for. Coincidentally. ”Callisto!” He called out, jogging to catch up with the female before she turned the corner. ”We…” Ares cleared his throat, unsure of how to even phrase such a thing. It wasn’t common of the Lestrange to get nervous or even quiet, it was usually opposite. ”We need to talk.”@callisto & hopefully this works!

Callisto was covered in blood. Which was... pretty common for a hospital. She left the patients room, who was now stable, and quickly moved into the hall. Her over robe was tossed into the hazmat bin in the room, but she still had stains on her pants which she'd now have to change, and her hands needed to be seriously sanitized. But someone called her name and she turned toward the sound, and... Ares Lesrange came around the corner. he started to talk, and she paused, 'we need to talk'. She took in a deep breath. "We do. Just give me ten minutes," she said seriously. Rushing away to clean up and change. "Come on, come on," she muttered to herself. How could he be here? Well, obviously she knew how but HOW was she so unlucky to deal with this today? Now she'd have to explain everything and Sebastian... Sebastian wasn't only hers, and she wasn't sure she could handle that. Sharing him with her dumb parents was hard enough. She came back, her facial expression serious and flat, "okay. I only can take thirty minutes," she explained. ares edward lestrange

When Ares’ eyes finally landed on Callisto, he didn’t realise the blood that was smeared across her until she agreed with the Lestrange’s statement and hurried away. He sighed to himself, knowing that their conversation would be filled with questions, questions that most certainly needed answers. Ares remained in the same area the healer left him in, his back pressed against the hospital walls. His head slowly tilted upwards, the feeling of the hospital’s walls against his skull while pale eyes slammed shut.
Where was Sarah? Or the more important question, where was Sebastian? Sure, Ares had been a terrible father at the beginning of Sebatian’s life, but with some…stable income for the Lestrange and the power he craved restore by being a part of the Purifiers, Ares was sure he wanted to raise his son along with Sarah. Lost in his own thoughts, the male somewhat jumped at Callisto’s voice and soon straightened himself. Thirty minutes wasn’t exactly enough time, especially with all of the questions he had for her, but it was something he just had to accept.
Nodding, Ares shoved his hands in his pockets. ”Thirty…Is fine. Do you have an office or something?” He questioned, his lips then forming a straight line.

He agreed to the time frame and she led him back to one of the offices, closing the door once they were inside. She gestured to the chair for him,but she stayed standing - leaning against the desk with her arms folded. "So, you're looking for Sarah, I'm guessing," she said, her tone flat. She had never liked Ares Lestrange. Not that she knew him well, but by reputation he wasn't someone she wanted to share anything with, let alone her nephew. But she also understood the importance of family and how she couldn't just take the kid away from him. She also knew people didn't often give her a chance because she was related to Sarah, so maybe Ares couldn't be all bad because of his family. Although, he DID have a baby with her insane sister. ares edward lestrange

Time and all things in the universe seemed to be against him. Ares knew thirty minutes with the Oliveira wouldn’t be enough, wouldn’t be enough to spout all of his questions to her. Though, where did he even begin? Callisto seemed to know the answer however, as she began, with the two of them walking inside and Ares sitting comfortably in the chair. The Lestrange gently nodded as a response before he spoke. ”Most definitely…Sarah and you. Sarah mainly.” He wanted answers. Hopefully Callisto could give them to her.
Family was everything to Ares, considering how close he was with his sisters — Ariadne over Andy of course — but with his own son in lengths he couldn’t reach…Ares wanted to become a better father for him. ”I want to know where Sebastian is.” He stated simply, arms crossing. ”And where Sarah is. I went to her old apartment. Everything was cleared. As if her and Sebastian didn’t even exist.” And that was a thought he didn’t want to think of.
”What’s happened? Or what’s going on?”

He said he was looking for Sarah, but also for her. Callisto felt a knot in her stomach. She knew what it was about, of course. Who it was about. She folded her hands together and placed them on the desk, waiting for him to come out with it on his own. He did, asking about Sebastian and Sarah. He wanted to know what happened, what was going on. Callisto kept her eyes locked on his face and saw... well, he was desperate, it seemed. He was lost, confused, he just wanted answers. And, probably, he just wanted his son. She took in a breath before launching in, though she spoke slowly and clearly enough for him to take in the words. "I'm not exactly where where Sarah is, but she's left the country. She found our brother, Dakoda, and she killed him," Callisto gave an incredibly short pause, "she's as sadistic as ever, Ares. She even sent me photo evidence so I'd know he was dead," she shook her head, then regained her posture and serious, informative tone, "Sebastian is currently at my parents, but he stays with me often. He has asked about you, I'll admit I didn't look that hard to find you," she explained firmly. "His life is very chaotic, Ares. I need to know how you plan to fit into it and how serious you are about the commitment." Ares had been a good dad, Callisto could admit. The little she'd seen of him with his son was encouraging, that was a blessing - even if it was surprising to her. ares edward lestrange

WITH HIS BROW creasing, the words that left Callisto’s lips made Ares just simply confused. Why would Sarah do such a thing? Kill her own family? Anxiety washed over the Lestrange the more Callisto spoke, especially at the thought of the image of their dead brother. Ares had killed before, but people who had no means in the world anymore, with no connection between them all or even Ares himself. Ares felt the need to respond with a joke, something as dark and twisted as there’s not enough spaces for more psychopaths in this family but with the way Callisto stared at him, his lips were sealed shut. ”I’m…Sorry for your loss.” He muttered to her, hand reaching to brush at the prickles of hair at the nape of his neck. ”For your brother and for…Any sanity your sister once had.”
Sighing in relief, Ares’ crossed arms stretched out, his hands clasping together, fingers pressing tightly into his skin anxiously. ”Thank God.” He didn’t like the fact that his son was away from him, away from Sarah — his mother — but if it was for his safety while Callisto couldn’t look after him…So be it. He figured just as much by her next explanation, especially since the Lestrange hopped around the States, living a quiet…Muggle-like life. Though, dark eyes lit up at the mention of his son, asking for him. ”He asked for me?” He repeated in question. Sebastian was still rather young, like Ares himself but just like his father…Sebastian had a curious mind. ”I’m serious. I just…Had to leave. Considering being…Orphaned and such. I’ve missed him. I don’t want him to think I’ve just…abandoned him.”

He said that he was sorry for her loss of her brother and any sanity Sarah had left. When his hand moved to touch the back of his neck, at first she thought he was going to reach out for her. She instinctively leaned back a tiny bit, slowly, though, so it wouldn't be noticeable unless one was looking for it. She shook her head, her hand still folded neatly on the desk. "Thank you, I appreciate that," she said, even though her head had been shaking. She wanted to say it wasn't necessary, but she had learned to accept condolences little more graciously then she would have in the past. At The mention of Sebastian being safely at her parents Ares seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. He looked a little confused, maybe even shocked that his own son had asked for him, explaining that he had to get away because of the death of his parents and that he didn't want his son to think he had abandoned him. Callisto shook her head again. "No, we haven't made any attempt to encourage him to think poorly of you," she explained. "He just mentioned daddy once or twice, and we informed him that you would be back soon, that you were taking care of some things." She honestly wasn't sure what else to say to Sebastian. He was too young for a lengthy explanation so it was easier to just keep it simple. "So," she started again, "what are your intentions for your relationship with your son?" Her tone was very serious and low, not even a hint of faltering in it. When it came to Sebastian, Callisto didn't mess around. ares edward lestrange

IT WAS A RELIEF, to hear about the well-being of his son had been backed up by Callisto, Mina and even their parents. It simply proved how much of a shitty father Ares had been since his son was born, but with his back a potential target from the Ministry officials following the death of his parents…He had to look out for himself, rid his son from being in danger. Or worse, a fight for legal custody against the one family he didn’t want to fight. ”Thank you.” He breathed, rather relieved at the discovery. ”I can’t wait to see him. Honestly.” He added, admitting. It was nice, knowing that Sebastian hadn’t been exactly lied to nor disappointed, but Ares was home now and he wanted nothing more than to be with his son.
At the seriousness of her tone, Ares knew he had found himself stuck in the mud. Callisto was a serious woman, closed in from many people that weren’t close to her and open to those she cared for. In the Lestrange’s case, he knew he was stuck in the middle midst her emotions, considering he had let her down following his disappearance. ”I just want to be with him.” He told her, in all fairness. ”I know I’m not the best father nor will I ever be, but I want to be there for him. Visit him alongside you or your parents. If he can’t have his mother in his life, his father should be there.”

He thanked her, saying that he couldn't wait to see his son and Callisto didn't respond. She did not like the idea of Ares seeing him, but she also was smart enough to know that if the guy really was going to try and be a good influence then having a father was the best thing for Seb. Still, she had a hard time believing that someone who even got in the situation of having a bastard child with Sarah in the first place could make any logical decision about anything. Callisto was extremely judgmental, and she didn't care. He said he just wanted to 'be with' Sebastian, not necessarily saying he wanted full custody or anything. Callisto nodded once, agreeing that Seb should be with his father. "Seb doesn't need his mother in his life at all," she said firmly, "but if you really, truly want to be a positive influence for him then I will advocate for you," she held a hand up to make sure he knew she wasn't done, "but, if I see any sign - a hint, a whisper, a flavor or you steering him in the wrong direction," she leaned forward a little, "I will get full custody of him so fast that you won't even have time to bat those eyes at any future co-parent you have your sights on. Is that clear?"ares edward lestrange

CALLISTO STARED DOWN AT THE Lestrange with no sort of emotion, form of amusement or joy from his words. It was the same way Andromeda would stare at him, the same way when she had lost her mind and the same way she was when the Wizard Doctors - Medics, whoever they were - had pieced it back together. On one side, he could see why, with both parents taking off, one for insanity purposes and the other remaining unknown, it was easy to say Cal didn't trust Ares at all. He wanted to prove her wrong while balance out a strange...lifestyle he has as a Daytime Bartender but Thief and Purifier on the side. While he wanted to be with Sebastian, asking for full custody straight away would have been stupid on his behalf, given the length of time Ares had run for. But it was also the rather rare soft side of him that didn't want Seb all for himself.
The young Lestrange had grown aside his aunts and Grandparents, so joint custody was only fair. When the conversations would eventually arise anyway. Cal made the point that Seb didn't need his mother in his life, and while Ares would disagree with something rather controversial, she was right about one thing. After all, Sarah was insane. "I do." He reinforced before swallowing his words at the raise of her hand and her following warnings. "Loud and clear boss." Now he knew why he had barely spoken to Cal before, she was intimidating as Hell.

He said he understood, loud and clear, and she nodded once before leaning back to straighten up again. "Great. You can come by this weekend," she whipped out a pen and paper, somehow not taking his eyes off him as she jotted down her address. She slid the paper across the desk to him then capped the pen, finally taking her eyes off him to put her pen down. She pushed back from the desk and stood. "I'm going to go back to work, there isn't anything else we need to discuss right now. Right?" she asked, raising an eyebrow at him. ares edward lestrange

FORCING A SMILE UPON HIS lips, Ares felt glad that his conversation with Callisto had gone in the direction he had wanted. All he wanted was to see Sebastian and here she was, slowly granting him what he believed he deserved. Dark eyes watched as she wrote the address, reaching forward for it and having a quick read before slipping the paper into his pocket. It was already locked in mind now, he didn’t need another reminder. ”Thank you.” He breathed, running a hand through his hair in relief.
The moment Callisto stood properly, Ares found himself doing the same. Had it already been thirty minutes? At her question, the Lestrange felt himself swallow a dry lump. He had more questions of course, ones he was unsure Callisto or even any other members of the family could answer considering they were all about Sarah. So instead he shook his head as a response for no, walking out of the small room alongside the healer and thanking her again. Ares vowed quietly to Callisto that he would be on his best behaviour for Sebastian before waving at the Oliveira and turning in the opposite direction. His quest and questions had been answered for the day, but everything around his dangerous hook-up still remained uncertain in the air. And Ares needed to know.
END
