Come here, pet. Let's go outside and look at all of the pretty flowers your Papa planted in the garden, all right? Daddy and Papa have something we'd like to talk to you about. You can finish up your mermaid movie when we're done . . . that's Daddy's good girl.
You know, Daddy remembers when you were a teeny, tiny little baby, and you and me and Papa would all pile up in the rocking chair together and snuggle. Yes, Papa remembers it, too. I think you were a bit too little to remember, sweetness, but when you're older your Daddy has loads of things to share with you in the pensieve. That's right, you aren't little anymore, you're Daddy's big girl. But I'll tell you a secret: you will never, ever be too big for snuggles. I'll still snuggle you even when you're a great-grandmother hobbling around with a cane. Yes, I will, and so will Papa. Well, too bad, that's the rub of it.
You aren't exactly helping, here, Potter. Stop snickering.
Muffin, do you remember last summer when Daddy had to stay in the hospital? Right before your brother came home? I know, that place can seem a little scary sometimes if you don't know what's happening, but that won't be the case this time, I promise. No surprises.
Ha ha, very funny, smartybum. Daddy isn't bringing home any more baby brothers. This time. But when Daddy was there last time, the Healers had some trouble fixing up Daddy's baby-making parts, so we have to go back again next week to make sure everything's all right.
Now, Daddy's going to have to stay in the hospital for just one night, precious, and Papa can bring you to visit, but only if you want to. Oh, I know, Daddy would stay home in the big bed and snuggle all day long if he could, but this is very important, so we need you to understand and help out with Bean and Amelia while Daddy's away. You get to have a very special, very important job, as well. Absolutely, it's the importantest of all. It's up to you to make sure Daddy doesn't get scared. I'll need a million hugs every day, do you think you can do that?
