"No, you're a blood traitor because you covert those damn mudbloods too much," he snarled back at her, his anger bubbling over. "There are more things to do than fight for the Dark Lord, Black! You don't have to be a solider if you don't want to be! All you would have had to do was ignore the pleas of your foolish mudbloods instead of running to them every time they cried." Why couldn't she just get the hint and shut up? Perhaps he'd come back another day, when she wasn't here, and get his stuff. It wasn't as if it was urgent, anyway.  And he needed out of this shop before he did something rash.  Setting down the items in his hand, he found himself stalking towards the entrance, unable to deal with her and her damned foolish thoughts any longer.

            “Oh, I see now. I’m a blood traitor because I haven’t picked a side yet.” Andromeda mused, nodding her head. She wasn’t letting anything convince her of what she already knew. There was no place for her in this war against the muggleborns and half-bloods. There’d been plenty of times where she was presented an opportunity to join their army, follow in her sister’s footsteps but she turned it down. “I refuse to participate in a war I didn’t start, so if that makes me a blood traitor, so be it. Even if I did fight among you lot, what makes you think anyone would even allow me to be like.. well, like you! When have you ever known me to be ruthless and unsparing, Rabastan?” 

Oh, she wanted to blame him for that? Considering she had been the one who held sympathy for the filth in their world? "I don't know, Black, maybe because at the end of the day, you're a blood traitor just like your cousin," he retorted, not even bothering to conceal the venom in his tone. To disgrace her house in such a manner was almost unthinkable. Why anyone would choose to side with the mudblood filth over their own flesh and blood, he'd never understand. But apparently, it was easier than he gave it credit for, considering there were a few prominent names falling from grace.

And she'd certainly be getting a full lecture in the morning. Apparently it was something she needed to hear. But now was not the time nor the place, for she pretty sure she'd not be able to make it clear while her head was still muddled from sleep. "The spare room is already made up," she told her instead, running a hand through her own knotted hair. "It's up the stairs on the second door to the right."

            “You said in the morning..” Andromeda said, closing her eyes. “We can talk in the morning and I’ll hear you lecture me about my naivety then.. We both just need some sleep.” She could easily tell she’d woken Maya up by knocking on the door, the last thing she wanted to do was work her up over this. “So thank you for letting me stay for the night, I appreciate it.”

Shutting the door behind her, she let out a slight scoff. "It's more what /you/ need," she informed the other witch. "You've got yourself so tangled up in a mess and you don't even realise it. You wanted to be neutral and yet... Andromeda, being neutral means sitting back completely. It's means becoming a hermit in the backwaters of some place where no one will ever find you again. Until then, you're a pawn, and you're going to be used until you pick where you want to be." She shook her head, not wanting to deal with this topic at this time of night.

"She's not married yet," Maya pointed out mildly. That made it blindly clear that Andromeda really had attempted to cut ties with the rest of her family, something the dark haired witch had never thought she'd do. "She would rather rip out her own eyes before considering Lestrange's proposal. But the arrangement is a little more complicated than that. Or less, depending on which way you look at it. Did you know her and Mulciber had some form of pact at school? She always liked him better than most. I guess that's what happens when families are close?"

            Andy nodded at the thought, giving a sad smile. “Up until I can’t heal one of you properly. It was different when we were in school. I had an excuse for not having the proper charm or potion back then.” At the mention of Bellatrix’s marriage, Andromeda let out a scoff. “She married for power. She has no other use for that marriage except for her power and title. I wouldn’t be surprised if he turned up missing because of her.”

"A nurse is not such a bad career choice," Maya pointed out. In the midst of the war, where casualties where rife, such a position would be coveted throughout the ranks.  "Or if you get stuck as a wife, I'm sure you could come to the same sort of agreement your sister is entertaining."

Far too many in my opinion. But it seems Dumbledore has gotten the idea into his head.

            Of course I’ll help- how many do you have to sell?
