like a CAR CRASH! | Astoria

[daphne michelle greengrass]

Looking around her flat Daphne sighed, it was really bothersome the way her parents through they had cleverly started using her to spy on the youngest Greengrass. It was not like she didn’t know the relationship between them was strained. They hated what Stori had decided to spend her life doing. Regardless Daphne loved her sister more than she could possibly let on and so they were going out to dinner, Daphne’s treat of course. Older sisters did that, took their younger sisters out to dinner. It was good too, after today she needed a little sister time. It was sometimes difficult working for Tracey. Today she had been put in her place for trying to talk about Blaise and the most recent break up and Daphne still felt a little scorned.

Luckily however Tracey had let her take a sample or two home for Astoria. She was a photographer for the Prophet and Daph wanted her to look as professional as possible and so she often picked up things here or there for her. It was what Daphne knew and so she did whatever she could to share her love and knowledge of fashion with her younger sister. She was also going to suggest that Daphne move into the guest room in her flat, she was worried about her. Very worried. The sound of her knocking at the door caused her to leap from her spot on the couch and rush over to the door. ”Hi!” She squeaked as she pulled her sister in excited to show her what she had gotten her. ”How are you?” She said after more or less attacking her with a hug. Astoria was busy with her job and they didn’t see as much of each other as Daphne would like.

Astoria sighed to herself as she walked the roads of London that fair evening. It was a bit chilly, and the young woman found herself shivering a bit at the passing wind; she absolutely hated the cold weather, and naturally, London was one of those places where it seemed to drop about 40 degree's at night, no matter what the season was. Pressing her coat tighter to her body, she felt a bit more warmth take over her. She had been invited by her older sister to go have dinner with her. Astoria thought it was a wonderful idea, for she absolutely loved when she got to see Daphne. Seeing as they both had quite different careers now, didn't attend Hogwarts any longer, and both didn't live under their parents roof, it was very rare for the two to ever actually hang out. It was quite sad, really.

Last time she checked, Daphne was making serious bank, and had all the latest fashions. Something she was proud to see her sister doing, and knew it really was where her passion always lay. She also knew her parents tended to use Daphne as some sort of spy to see what exactly was going on in Stori's life at the moment. She scowled lightly to herself, thinking about her parents. They really bothered her. They hated the choice in which Astoria chose to do in her life, but really, they weren't going to take control of her forever.

Right now, she was a photographer, and a fine one at that. It was where her passion was at. She was almost the opposite of rich at the time, for her profession didn't exactly bring in the big bucks, but she had just graduated for Merlin's sake! She didn't expect to get a high paying job immediately. Give her time to get her name out there, and she was almost certain that she'd be one of the most sought out after photographers there was. She just knew it.

Arriving at the street of her sister's flat, she glanced at the cash in her pocket. She knew how her big sis was, always wanting to take care of her, but the least Astoria could do would at least pay for her own food. She didn't want to feel like a complete charity case. Arriving at the doorstop, it literally took the girl about one knock before her sister flung open the door. Felling a bit stunned, she eventually put her fist down that was hung in midair, getting ready for another knock at the moment, as she then felt herself being pulled in. "Hello!" She said with a smile as she returned the hugs. "I'm well, thank you. It's always nice to see your sister." She said with a grin. "How have you been, love? Feels like I haven't seen you in decades."

”Forever!” She agreed, it really had been too long but they were both busy busy. Daphne though was far too happy to think about it. She did however pull her into the kitchen where she had framed the several photos that credited Stori for her work. [b[“Look! I nearly fell out of my chair! I told everyone I saw you took those and you were my sister.”

[/b] Daphne beamed with pride. It was kind of cool seeing your sister’s work in the paper all the time. With a small smile she shrugged. ”They thought I was a nutter.” She nodded and shrugged.

”Oh well you know I’ve been busy, Blaise and Tracey broke up again.” Though this time it seemed a little more permanent. Something about them both having casual sex with others. Something that she didn’t quite understand but no one ever really knew what the deal was with them anyway. ”I also got some samples for you!” Daphne said cheerfully deciding that she would talk about the happier things. ”In my room come on.” Again dragging her sister through the flat to her room she pulled the simple black dress and the more casual trousers and two rather lovely blouses. ”You need nice things for events yeah?”
