it really just depends on whatever feels good in my soul

.599. [teos cookie!]

2009-09-22T07:48:22Z

Well, I was not so exhausted when I got home from work today that I couldn't do any writing, but I didn't do enough to get the chapter done. I'm hoping to sneak some writing time during work tomorrow ;) Until then, here's a cookie!

Auror Headquarters was just barely open for business; there weren’t too many people about at this hour. Still, Draco got a few dark looks, a few appraising looks as he passed through, until he reached Tonks’ cubicle, far at the end of the corridor.

Her hair was pink this morning. Draco suppressed the urge to roll his eyes at her, as he nearly always had to do when he saw her. She glanced up when he stopped in front of her cubicle and, without saying a word, without even wishing him a good morning, she stood and walked by him, leading him into one of the room they used for questioning.

“What is this about?” Draco asked immediately, as soon as the door shut behind them.

Tonks lifted an eyebrow at him, though she should know better by now, Draco thought, than to expect anything polite out of him. “Why don’t you have a seat, Draco,” she said, gesturing towards the chair at the table in the center of the room.

“What is this about?” Draco repeated, his voice even.

Tonks sighed. She eyed him for a second longer, as though judging his mood, before taking the seat herself. She folded her hands calmly on the table in front of her and looked up at him. “It’s about your father.”

Draco stiffened, fighting to keep his expression impassive, though he couldn’t keep one of his eyebrows from jumping in shock. His father. What about his father? Had he been caught? No, surely not, surely he would have heard…unless they were keeping it hushed up, for some reason…. Struggling to keep his voice composed, Draco merely said, “Go on.”

“We know where he is,” Tonks said. Before Draco had time to panic, she amended, “Well. No, we don’t, not exactly. I guess you could say we know here he isn’t.”

Draco pinched the bridge of his nose in exasperation. “Tonks. Say what you meant, already.”

“He’s left the country,” Tonks said abruptly. “He’s gone abroad somewhere…likely, somewhere very far away. Someplace he thinks we can’t get to him.”

Draco dropped his hand from his face abruptly. “How do you know?”

“This.” Tonks stretched out her arm, and Draco saw, now, that she held a tiny scrap of parchment in her hand, something he hadn’t noticed before. Frowning, Draco took it from her, unfolding it slowly to read its content.

Draco,

Don’t expect to hear from me in a while. I’m getting out of the country, and I won’t be able to reach you for some time. In case you were wondering, I’ve taken him with me—so don’t forget my warning. I think you’ll regret it, if you do.

Your father.

Draco’s fingers clenched around the tone, crinkling the parchment. He didn’t dare a glance up at Tonks, his eyes glued to the parchment, to his father’s handwriting. His breathing felt a little constricted, as though he couldn’t quite get enough air.

“Draco,” Tonks said quietly.

Draco said nothing. He still didn’t look up at her.

“Draco,” Tonks repeated, “do you know…where he might’ve gone?”

“How did you get this?” Draco demanded.

“We found it,” Tonk said simply. Draco finally glanced up at her, raising an eyebrow in question. Tonks hesitated, before continuing, “We found it…at St. Mungo’s. In your mother’s hospital room.”

Draco went cold. His fingers tightened around the note so much that it crumpled entirely in his hand, and he barely noticed. “What on earth,” he said, his voice low but shaking with barely-suppressed anger, “were you lot doing in my mother’s hospital room?”

“We weren’t in there,” Tonks hastened to say. “One of the Healers found it and, being aware that your father is a wanted fugitive, they Flooed us. Draco, I have to ask—”

“I don’t know where he is,” Draco said shortly. “I don’t know where he’d go.”

“That’s not what I was going to ask.” Tonks paused. “Well, it was, but there’s something else, too. Draco, he obviously meant for you to find this note, not us. Not some Healer. Almost as though he…expected you to be there, shortly after he was.”

Draco narrowed his eyes. “I’m not hearing a question,” he said, although he was fairly certain he knew where this was headed.

“Fine.” Tonks leveled a very direct gaze at him. “Did your father contact you and schedule a time for you to visit your mother?”

“Obviously not,” Draco said icily. He didn’t like Tonks bringing up his mother again and again; that bothered him more than her accusations. “Or else I would have been there to get the note, instead of someone else.”

“Maybe you changed your mind.”

“Maybe my father didn’t care if you lot found this note,” Draco countered. “Seeing as it’s told you nothing.”

“Fair enough.” Tonks eyed him with a narrowed gaze. “And you, Draco? I suppose this note means more to you than it does to us.” She glanced at the note, still clutched in Draco’s fist, as though she could read its contents. More likely, Draco knew, was that she’d read it so many times she had it committed to memory. “He says he’s taken ‘him’ with him. Who is he talking about?”

“I don’t know,” Draco said stiffly.

Tonks spared him an incredulous glance. “He seems to think you do.”

“Well, I don’t.”

“Then what’s the rest of it all about?” Tonks sighed with exasperation. “All that about—what was it? ‘Don’t forget my warning, or you’ll regret it’?” She eyed Draco skeptically. “Sounds more like a threat than a warning to me.”

“It’s not,” Draco said curtly. He hesitated only a second, knowing he had to give Tonks something here. To flatly deny that he knew at all what his father was talking about in that note was ludicrous. “He was just talking about…Ginny.”

“Ginny?” Tonks said sharply.

“He thinks I shouldn’t be…” Draco pursed his lips, struggling to define what he and Ginny were “…involved with her. He thinks I’ll regret it, in the long run. And that’s just his opinion,” Draco added, when Tonks opened her mouth to interrupt. “Not a threat. He’s not planning to do anything to Ginny.”

“You know that for sure?” Tonks asked dryly.

“Well, seeing as he’s far, far away, I don’t see how he could.”

Tonks shot him a wry look and came to her feet. She perched on the edge of the table, leaning closer towards him now, and she shot the closed door a quick look, as though to make sure no one was going to come bursting in. “Draco,” she said seriously, “I know you said your father didn’t contact you about this note—”

“And he didn’t, Tonks, I’m not lying!”

“It’s just—” Tonks hesitated. “Draco, in this note he says…not to expect to hear from him. That he won’t be able to reach you…for a while.” She eyed Draco expectantly, as though waiting for some kind of answer from him.

Draco stared stonily back at her.

She heaved a sigh. “Draco, this very much sounds like he usually keeps in contact with you.”

“Well, he doesn’t.” Draco had repeated this lie so many times now that he was beginning to believe it himself.

“And add to that,” Tonks went on, ignoring his rebuttal, “the fact that—well, that it was never really explained how Ginny knew that the Death Eaters were at the Riddle House—well.” She fixed him with a meaningful look. “Let’s just say it would really help you if you could give us some information about where your dad might be.”

Draco stared at her, his gaze hard. “What does that mean?”

“It’s just that—”

“Are you going to arrest me,” he asked coolly, “or not?”

UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE, REQUESTS FOR THIS DOWNLOAD LIST ARE CLOSED. IN THE MEANTIME, FEEL FREE TO KEEP DOWNLOADING WHATEVER IS ON THE LIST THAT'S ALREADY BEEN UPLOADED.

I've finally done what I meant to do for ages and compiled a list of all my Japanese music, available for anyone interested.

*All MP3 files will be uploaded in MF unless otherwise requested
*Vids/PVS will either be on MF or MU, and maybe SS
*No limit on # of songs to request, but understand that if you request a lot, it might take a couple days, depending on my schedule
*Unless noted, all videos/pvs are in .mp4 format (which means you can play them on your iPod)
*If a link is expired or wrong, please let me know and I will fix it
*If vids do not say subbed, then they are not subbed. I have tried to credit all subbers; if you find something here which you have subbed and is not credited, please let me know
*I tried to put all solo songs by Nishikido Ryo under both the Kanjani8 section and the NEWS section, regardless of which band the song pertained to, but vids of performances are probably according to the band. So, basically, if you can't find something of his under Kanjani8, check NEWS, and vice versa.
***IMPORTANT: I've had to delete a lot of files to clear space on my computer. If a link is marked with **, then that means that file will only be available for so long as the link doesn't expire. Because I no longer have it on my computer to upload again. I removed anything I don't have that wasn't uploaded, so don't worry about requests. Anything here for request, I have.
*As always, PLEASE buy the albums and support the artists as much as possible. If you don't know where you can buy online, feel free to ask and I can direct you to a few places. Thank you!
