Aurora's eyes twinkled,
"You went to all that trouble just for my birthday?!" she smiled, so Mordred was becoming... Nice? o___O
She chuckled,
"Good thing too, you don't want to get in trouble with the authorities over there... The Egyptians have much worse punishments for revealing yourself to muggles." Yup, she was glad. Or else Mordred probably wouldn't have his hands anymore...

Maybe there’s a potion in the grimoire that could help him get better…” he added trying to make her feel better. He doesn’t want a crying Aurora in public. “A new addition to the family! Congratulations, Aunt ‘Rora.” He said patting her on the shoulder.
Aurora shrugged,
"Maybe... I don't want to talk about it. There's always the possibility that he might have to go back..." she sighed.
"But yeah, new little niece or nephew... Though Aunty Rora sounds... Scary. Knowing Tiff it'll be Aunty RaRa anyway..." she laughed. He patted her... All this physical contact all of a sudden. She liked new Mordred.

It’s like an ancient incantation.” He said as he looked at the sky trying to remember the drawing. “Oh. And I bumped in to David.” He said as he looked at the ground. “He’s Chloe’s brother, he was the one who sent you the package. I had to smuggle it out since I have nosy parents.” He smiled sheepishly. “As for Greece, most of the places we went to were ruins..” he paused trying to change the subject. “But then I met a strange man. He wasn’t talking, but rather conversing with me in my head.” He said frowning. “He said I must be a druid, since I can talk to him telepathically—and without effort.” He added wondering what in Merlin’s beard is a Druid. “I should have paid more attention in History of Magic.” he said to himself. “The one thing I miss in Greece is their food.”he said. "I was hoping the touring Carnival had gyros."
Aurora's eyes shone as he talked,
"I'd love to go to Egypt..." she said dreamily.
"Sounds like you had an awesome time though!" Quote:

He frowned as he tried to remember this Conan fellow. “Ah yes, Conan. He’s in your year now, isn’t he?” he smirked. “Yes, we were mean to him ‘cause he’s muggle born. And he hates the fact that he’s a wizard.” He paused. “I don’t get that boy, really.” He said shaking his head. “Well, I met a few muggleborns earlier. They are surprisingly not bad. In fact, I find them interesting.” He said scratching his chin. “We really have changed.” He said in agreement. “So, you’ve been hanging out with Conan?” he asked. There must be a reason why she mentioned him.
"I like Happy New Mordred." she said, smiling.
"Just don't go all Hufflepuff on me." Aurora chuckled.
She nodded,
"Yep, same year. He doesn't hate magic anymore though. He seems to have had a change of heart over summer..." she said.
"And yes, well, sort of... I kind of bumped into him this morning." she said. Mmm... That had been interesting... Well... Awkward..?

Aurora burst out laughing,
"I talked to my cousin - he likes muggle comics - it's crime not mime." she managed through her laughter.
Aurora watched the latest exchange with interest.. Until
"MORDRED YOU KILLED A KID!" she stared on in horror. Sure, she was mean but she wasn't
that mean.
