'And it would knock me to the floor if I wasn't there already. If only I could hunt the hunter
And I am frightened by the corrupted ways of this land. If only I could meet the maker
And I am fascinated by the spiritual man
I am humbled by his humble nature

And I have no concept of time other than it is flying
If only I could kill the killer
And all I really want is some peace man
A place to find a common ground
And all I really want is a wavelength

And all I really want is some comfort
A way to get my hands untied
And all I really want is some justice...
It's all I really want, some patience
A way to calm me down
And all I really want is deliverance'






          "Hey, can you hold him?"
Dora sighed, trying to shake her hair away from her face as her arms were wrapped securely around her newborn son. "I'm dying for a bath, and Remus is— "

Hera waved her hand in dismissal. "Oh, I'm never one to turn down a cuddle with this little man. "
She chuckled, extending her forearm to take Teddy. "Take your time. I'll tell the guys not to bother you. "

Dora smiled appreciatively.
"It's lucky he's not a little shit — I'd love him all the same, but I'd feel terrible if he was screaming the house down for yours and Sirius' sake. "

"We wouldn't mind if he was. It's bound to happen at some point, " she pointed out, gently rocking the baby as she resumed her seat on the couch.

"I can't wait for him to grow up. " Dora said wistfully, leaning against the end of the armrest.
She seemed not to want to leave him.
"The baby thing's gotten old now. I'm ready for him to walk and talk. "

"It's all part of the process, I suppose. "
she shrugged, faltering in her rocking of Teddy. "They need to be small before they can be tall, you know... "

"Am I the worst mother in the world for thinking that?" Dora frowned, "I thought, if anything, I think it makes me a good one for not just wanting a baby — I want a child, like a little man that's my best friend!"

"He's all of those things, " Hera said firmly,
"he just doesn't know how to respond yet. He's kind of in survival mode for the time being — feed me, keep me warm and dry but not too much, change me, and hold me. After that, the time will fly by. "
She looked up at the woman across her and added, "And it may not mean much coming from someone without kids, but I think you're an amazing mother. "
