James could see Diana starting to shut down, and he was glad to see she at least had that much of herself left, as much harder as it made her to reach. He shook his head, rubbing her arm softly. "There's no such thing as parenting superpowers - those are grandparent superpowers. You should...

James had expected some pushback on this visit, and the fact that Diana welcomed him in without so much as a snappy comment really drove home just how badly she was doing. He didn't comment on it as he came inside, handing her the chocolate without a word. While he had always been a safe...

If Phoebe and Charlie eloping had been a surprise, Diana and Delaney eloping had been alarming, and the arrival of the twins had been.... well, something else entirely. James still wasn't sure he had wrapped his head around the whole thing. He felt far too young to be a grandfather, with one...

James had never followed Quidditch all that closely, but Lucy had him learning more than he had ever expected to know, and he had to admit it was a bit exciting to actually get to talk to one of the players about what it was like. He was formulating questions about strategy when Phoebe called...

It hadn't occurred to James until Claudia was no longer Minister just how long it had been since his life was anything approaching normal. Between Claudia's increased schedule and responsibilities, and his own stepping back from work to focus on raising Lucy, it felt like forever since family...

Surprised was perhaps an understatement for how James felt about being invited to his oldest nephew's graduation. Though to his relief Connor had warmed up to the family somewhat, James was dismayed that Eric seemed to have held onto his dislike. Although it was understandable, James had hoped...

James nodded when Claudia spoke, though their conversation was ended quickly by a flurry of arrivals. He greeted Phoebe and Charlie and returned their hugs, pleased to see both of them. Phoebe had filled the family in on Charlie's news, but it was the first time he had seen them since, and...

James had never felt his age quite as deeply as he had at Alice's graduation. His girls had all grown into adults so fast, and though Lucy was now by far the baby of the family, there had been more than a decade when that had been Alice's position, and he wasn't ashamed to admit it had brought...

James had thought he was used to his daughters' graduations by now, but somehow even the fourth time around it felt bizarre. This was different, he supposed. Although that was no longer the case, for a very long time Alice had been the baby of the family, their little girl. It felt surreal to...

However many times it happened, James didn't know if he would ever get used to meeting his daughters' significant others. Especially not now. Alice, who had been his little girl for so long, now Head Girl, mere months away from her graduation. Lucy was settled in the same high chair her older...

Congratulations Princess 💜 your mum and I couldn't be prouder.

James felt a little overwhelmed to be back at Hogwarts yet again, if he was honest. Yet another of his daughters was set to walk the graduation stage, finishing up her life at school with her entire adulthood ahead. How had his little girls grown up so quickly? As he had said goodbye to Lucy...

James' passion for plants had been born at an early age, and he couldn't help his heart swelling at the sight of the same passion in his oldest daughter. He chuckled and nodded at her comment about the setup, looking around. "A lot of trial and error. Mostly error." He smiled warmly. The...

James nodded when Rose asked about special conditions, pausing to look around the greenhouse. "Let's see. That corner has extra sun lights, the ones next to them need extra humidity. Over there on the other wall are all the plants that need a bit more water, and that far corner up the back is...

James smiled slightly at Rose's observation, pride swelling in his chest. "Yes, it's not really necessary these days, but the extra money and connections never hurt. Potion supplies are any home herbologist's bread and butter, and if you can start off bulk supplying common ingredients it'll...

The more time James spent at home with Lucy, the more conscious he became of how his children were all growing up before his eyes. Every day he shared new discoveries and new milestones with Lucy as she grew up, and every day, James ached for these moments he had missed with his older children...

Although it didn't surprise him, James's heart still skipped a beat out of fear as Vincent rounded on him at once. He had known this would anger his older brother, but certainly hadn't expected to be dealing with the fallout today. He stood steady as Vincent told him off, not flinching away...
