Rose laughed at the expression on Lucy's face. She was pretty sure she would have reacted the exact same way to that advice at her age. "Fine, but I warned you." She said with a grin. "But alright, one more bonus question to make up for the old lady advice."

Rose pondered her question for a moment, taking it seriously. "I'm going to sound like an old lady when I say this, but... how quickly it goes by." She told Lucy. "So make sure to enjoy it all and have a lot of fun, okay?"

Rose laughed. "Maybe I should go back to school and learn to count." She joked. "Fine, then what is your final question?"

Rose laughed. "I think you should avoid the beets since you don't like them. I wasn't a big fan of the peas myself." She said. "Is that really what you want your last question to be about? The food?"

Rose groaned as Lucy saw right through her. "Fine, it was kind of fun, but we didn't really ever see anything too interesting. It's mostly just a forest. That's not a lie." She said. "And you should wait until at least... your third year, so you know a few spells. Just in case." She added.

Rose decided to exaggarate a bit, as she really didn't want Lucy to go into that forest. It was weird to look at it from an adult's perspective now. She really shouldn't have gone in there either. "Very scary. And also kind of boring. Both." She said quickly.

Rose grinned and held up two fingers. "That's two more questions, Lucy. Are you sure?" She asked teasingly.

Rose winced at Lucy's question, she knew she shouldn't have mentioned the forest. She hesitated for a moment. She didn't want to lie, but she also didn't want to encourage bad behavior. Especially anything dangerous. "Well, yes. But you shouldn't." She said firmly.

Rose laughed softly when Lucy yelled she was ready for school. She reminded her of Diana sometimes when she was little, though she wasn't going to say that. "Five for now. Maybe you can help me and dad and ask more in the greenhouse." She suggested. The question made Rose think for a moment. "I...

Rose smiled and turned to Lucy. "Fine, I might have known." She admitted. "It's weird, though. Can't you just stay ten for another year?" She teased. It wasn't a big surprise to hear mum wasn't home, and Rose nodded. She laughed. "It would be pretty stupid if you were knocked out. Your teacher...

Rose huffed and poked Lucy's shoulder. "I wasn't just at your party, I made your totally awesome cake too, remember?" She said as she made her way inside. "Is mum home?" She asked Lucy. Even though Claudia retired after her time as minister, Rose was puzzled to find her as busy as before. She...

Rose shook her head, still tapping her chin. "No, no, that's not it." She said, stepping inside. "There's no way you're already big enough to go to Hogwarts. Surely you are just going on a trip." She teased, walking past her sister and ruffling her hair. She laughed at her questions. "Lucy...

Rose made a habit of going to her parent's every week, mostly to help her dad out in the greenhouse. She never quite achieved her dream of becoming a herbologist, but she still enjoyed helping him out iwth the plants. It shouldn't have been a surprise to be greeted by her youngest sister, but...

Rose didn't have much of a chance to chat with Diana's boyfriend, as people from outside were calling them to come join. She heard Diana's voice, as well as her mother. Rose smiled at Avery encouragingly and took his hand, glad he already seemed to be a bit more at ease. She smiled at Diana as...
