“What’re you doing with Teddy?”
“Teaching him shapes, Potter. Is that not obvious?”
“Yes. No. I mean. What’re you doing… with Teddy?”
Malfoy leaned back, scowled. “He’s my cousin, Potter. I thought you knew.”
“I knew that. I didn’t know you knew it.”
“Harry,” Andromeda murmured from the doorway. “Draco has been visiting with Teddy almost as often as you. I’ve simply been keeping you apart. Clearly, I was correct. Now, please come with me to the kitchen and help me plate lunch.”
“You leave those two… alone?”
Silent and unamused, Andromeda merely looked down her nose. Chastened, Harry followed.

“Why didn’t you tell me Malfoy visits Teddy?”
“Because I didn’t want Teddy to witness a snarling little cockfight?”
Harry put both hands on the counter and took a deep breath. “I’m sorry I instigated a fight over Teddy right in front of him. If you can honestly call that little… tiff, a fight?”
Andromeda nodded, then scooped macaroni and cheese onto each of the four, square melamine plates she’d had Harry take from the cupboard. Harry could no longer see Thomas the Tank Engine smiling up cheekily from them. “Get the peaches, please,” she told him. Frustrated, Harry obeyed.

“Obviously you trust Malfoy with Teddy,” Harry tried again as she fetched plastic cups and he got the juice. “But I hope you understand why I don’t, and why I was surprised to see him in there. Playing shapes. On the floor!”
“You spoke for him at trial, Harry,” Andromeda said, finally looking uncertain. “And his mother. My sister. I thought that meant something.”
“Jeez, Andromeda, of course it did. I meant everything I said that day. But Teddy… don’t you think he’s uniquely vulnerable?"
“Yes.” Andromeda said, sounding final. “And that’s why he needs every ally I can find.”
