    Summary

    “C’mon, Osha! Please?” Jecki weedles as she tries to convince her friend with clasped hands and eyes beseeching her to agree.

    Osha sighs and pinches the bridge of her nose, already feeling a headache come on. “Explain it to me one more time. What do you want me to do?”

    "Can you pretend to be Mae and sneak into the Slytherin common room to find Qimir's quidditch training roster? We need any advantage we can get."

    "Oh god, why me?" Osha asks the heavens to answer for how she is always forced to suffer.

    -----

    In which Osha is her own worst enemy and she is one hell of an unreliable narrator.

    Summary

    She steps in between his blade and her sister with neither hurry no hesitation, like a planet simply following its orbit. Her eyes on him are exhilarating.
    The glowing red of the saber stops inches away from her throat, Mae behind her nearly stumbling back in terror, holding on to her sister in the attempt to pull her back should he strike.
    He sighs and looks to her twin, expectantly.
    “You did what you had to do, Osha,” he tells her. “Now let me do what I came here for.”

    ----
    Rewriting the confrontation at the Bunta tree, I felt like there could have been a little more tension there.

    “You’re with child,” Qimir rasped, confirming the knowledge that shot through her like a bolt. “Our child.”

    Summary

    For years he was like a comet, orbiting her atmosphere.

    Never drawing too close, never going too far. They shared the same solar system and observed each other fleetingly from afar, but had no reason to speak to the other.

    He was a legend, a force that drew spectators far and wide, awe-struck at his being. She felt like dust carried on the wind, trying and trying to pull herself together into something strong and wonderful, something others could look upon in that same breathless wonder. Yet no matter how hard she tried, she found herself blown away, strewn across the darkness of space.

    Osha thought it would always be like this.

    Had no reason to think otherwise.

    But where Osha saw space dust, Qimir saw the forming of a star.
