Harry closed his eyes with relish as the pumpkin pie touched his tongue.
"Hmmmmm. Your elves are sooo good at cooking. I love this pie.”
."You love anything my house elves put in front of you," Lucius smirked before taking a bite himself.
“Because they are simply fantastic. .like Kreacher and Dobby, their cooking skills are far from my equal if I ever manage to."
"You won't, there's nobody in the whole world who's ever done it. .then even the great Harry Potter will have to give up.”
Harry chuckled and happily poked at his food.
“I will accept my defeat with dignity. With dignity and plenty of appetite.”
.the blonde shook his head in amusement before making a slight face.
"Pain?" his friend asked softly.
"A little, that's why I just remembered the riot gang."
"Now that wasn't nice."
."Violet screamed right in my ears, I thought my eardrum would burst. If someone wasn't nice, it was her."
"But you could also say it's your own fault."
"Oh yes, why is that?" Lucius wanted to know, slightly piqued.
.Harry grinned mischievously.
"Who said the little ones would definitely soon get into the defiance phase? Muggles call that a self-fulfilling prophecy.”
Lucius sighed in resignation.
."Who could have guessed that it would happen so quickly?"
"Well, I can understand her, I wouldn't have liked it back then either if someone tried to drag me away from Dad and Sirius."
.“We didn't pull them, well, Blue almost did, and Nacre wasn't far behind either. Actually, only Shine and Happy were good.”
“Although neither of them made a particularly happy impression. .In any case, they didn't live up to their name any more. Don't ask how long it took us to get her to sleep."
"I can imagine, after all I've been waiting for you."
.“There is definitely one good thing about the whole thing. No wait, there are actually two good things.”
"Oh yes, I'm curious about that," you could clearly hear the blonde's skepticism.
."They have clearly shown how attached they are to the Ritual Guardians who gave them their souls. In this case, the Pax are no different from normal children.”
"And what is the second positive point?"
."We now know that they are not mute."
Lucius rubbed his left ear as if on command.
“Distinctive voices with very well-functioning lungs, true. If they continue to learn at this rate, they will probably soon be able to speak as well.”
."Another prophecy?"
Lucius shook his head.
"No, experience. Children like to imitate, you should talk to them a lot that way they learn it the quickest.”
"We have time. .however, this task will probably be handed over to our colleagues. The little ones may like us, but their parents are their parents. I am definitely looking forward to finally being able to go back to my normal work. .Don't get me wrong, I really like the Pax and it's fun to watch them develop. But that doesn't belie the work involved in having to focus on five children at once. .I'm just not resilient enough for that."
“That amount of kids would be a challenge for anyone, especially when those kids are as agile as Pax. .tell me, will Lydia continue to work in your department or will she go back to Ehrenhausen once your colleagues have left the hospital?”
.Harry shrugged, he just had his mouth full and couldn't answer.
"To be honest, she doesn't know that herself yet. Her wild magic would be a real blessing for us but she likes to work as an escort. .although she likes her current position too,” Harry grinned as he swallowed.
Lucius raised an eyebrow.
"Did you just make a lewd joke?"
"Sorry, he hung up. Lydia finds him hilarious too, by the way. .she has a few sayings on her own which I will write down when the time comes. They are so good, you just have to remember them.”
“Severus will be happy if you meet him with new material. .slowly Sirius and I should start awarding points."
"Now it's too late, I would have needed that at school."
Lucius spluttered and nearly spilled his pie all over the table. .just in time he managed to hold a napkin in front of his mouth. Which didn't make the whole thing any more appetizing for him.
"Oops," said Harry hypocritically.
.Lucius slowly removed the napkin from his face and gave his happily grinning friend a piercing look.
"I've just had a self-fulfilling prophecy," she whispered diabolically.
."Luc, whatever you're up to, we're at dinner," Harry began to protest.
Lucius' expression became even more satanic, his smile changing from diabolical to victorious.
."Oh, it's a prophecy that won't be fulfilled until after dinner. Enjoy your meal, sweetie.”
Harry swallowed, trying not to imagine what his blond partner had planned for him as a punishment. .he quickly lowered his head and now concentrated entirely on his cake. With the best will in the world he couldn't say when it had appeared. But the young man was only too happy to accept the distraction.
.the blond smiled contentedly at the effect his words had and now also devoted himself to the dessert. He didn't take his eyes off his nervous partner for a second.
