"Teddy, honey--" The boy was crying again and it was for that reason that she stepped out of the kitchen to go and pick him up from the play pen ... or she would have done so if she hadn't stepped out into some other place entirely.
She tensed, glancing around for a long moment before she resolved to simply sit down and figure out where she was.

"Don't Animagi talk anymore?" Telepathy had always squicked her.

Said dryly.
I'm not an Animagus. I'm... a little different. I'd speak in the language of wolves, but I doubt you'd understand.

She rubbed her hand over the back of her neck absently. "Look, if it's not too much trouble..I'd really like to get back to Teddy. I don't want him to have to think I disappeared."
Enough of his family already had.

Safety is a new thing with Thomas Barnes. He has a book and he appears relaxed-or at least as relaxed as a Secret service agent can get.
"You look a little lost."
Did we mention his horribly annoying habit of stating the obvious to people? He can't help it, it comes with being observant.

He looks like a muggle, and oddly enough ... that puts her at ease. She purses her lips in a thin line and then nods. "So ... I suppose lost is as good a word as any."
Her hand is still in her pocket, gripping her wand like a lifeline.

There's a pause, "Do me a favor though, look behind you and tell me if you see the door?"
There is something calming about the man-and that's out in full force seeing as how he'd like to avoid her freaking out if she's bound.

Because the first thing she'd thought was that it was an ambush - she could think of a handful of people who'd like to finish off her family, at least, even with the new Minster of Magic.
"I was never particularly familiar with constitutional law anyway." She offers out her hand immediately - the one not on her wand - "Andromeda Tonks."

He is suddenly glad for the bathrobe given that most men (well most guys who feel like they have an image to maintain) opt for going without pajama tops.
Thusly there is a pajamifed Secret agent/Race Car driver standing in the bar somewhere close to where Tonks is.
Luckily, he's been there before, It just-throws him for a minute.

"...looks like you and I are in the same boat." But he seemed to be the one who was worse off -- not that he was dressed immodestly, but nobody likes to be caught in a strange place wearing only their pajamas and a smile.

He folds his arms across his chest and shakes his head, "This place hasn't grabbed me at home before."
Reply
"Well, I was on my way to the living room." Whether that helped him feel better about it or not.

"Do tell me this doesn't mean the rest of the family is going to start pouring in."
Here, Andromeda, have a not-exactly-cousin.
(OOC: For some reason, the Milliposts tend to attract Regulus from my ridiculously big Neverwhere crossover, and so I reuse my LJ. Juts a heads-up.)

"Bloody hell, I'm dead." She rubs a hand through her hair and tightens her grip on her wand (although it's still in her pocket). This does not bode well for anyone, she thinks -- Teddy will be all alone, and that's what causes her the most stress instantly.
Reply
Make that a universe to the side. He can't see Sirius not finding his favorite cousin and explaining what he was doing alive again.

Just try harder, Andromeda. She scrubs her hand over her jaw. "Some sort of timeslip, then?" It's what would make the most sense, all things considered.
