she’ll admit that maybe she’s becoming a little more reckless over the years, knowing that it’ll take more than a magic spell to kill her now. she doesn’t fear as much but she still fears losing those around her so she prefers to be the reckless one, the one used as a sacrifice if that means keeping her family safe. sighing, she nods her head slowly in agreement with her friend. “fine, i will. i’ll be more careful.” 

                                   there’s  a  sigh  of  relief  ,  &  a  small  ❛    thank  you.    ❜   that  hestia  offers  in  return.  she’s  grateful  ,  even  if  her  friend  is  lying  ,  it’s  a  weight  off  of  her  shoulders.  ❛    i’m  always  going  to  be  here  for  you.  even  if  you  don’t  want  me  to  be  ,  i’ll  still  be  right  by  your  side.  just...  remember  that.    ❜

they’ve been saying that to each other for years and now sylvanas was starting to regret letting the witch remain in her life. few knew the secret, her circle of friends had always been small but now it was smaller still and she had been determined to make it invisible but hestia had proven hard to shake after everything. “i don’t need looking after,” she said softly, blue eyes looking at the other carefully. she worries constantly about the safety of hestia, she’s a mother and has so much ahead of her that sylvanas didn’t want that being taken away from her too. “hestia, please. go home, be with that little girl of yours and stay far away from this.” the plea, she knew, would fall to deaf ears but she had to give it a try anyway.

                                    tears  swell  in  hestia’s  eyes  as  she  watches  her  best  friend  closely.  ❛    you  know  that  i  can’t  do   that.    ❜  her  words  are  firm  ,  though  there’s  a  shakiness  in  her  voice.  the  witch  feels  responsibility  for  the  blonde  ,  despite  what  she  might  say.  ❛    i  want  to  be  here  ,  helping  you.  just  let  me  in  ,  we  can  get  through  this  together.    ❜  the  tears  she  was  trying  so  hard  to  fight  off  finally  fell  freely  as  hestia  spoke.  the  strong  facade  was  quickly  dissolving  ,  &  there  was  no  controlling  it.  ❛    you’re  my  friend  ,  &  i’m  going  to  be  here  for  you  whether  you  want  me  to  or  not.  because  that’s  what  friends  do.    ❜

(    tw  :  death  &  murder    )

    hestia  is  the  youngest  of  the  jones  siblings  ,  as  well  as  the  only  daughter.  for  two  bright  ,  wonderful  years  ,  hestia  was  surrounded  with  love  &  warmth  ,  but  unfortunately  after  those  two  years  her  father  left  ,  &  hestia  never  learned  the  reason  why.  

     as  expected  ,    she  received  her  first  hogwarts  letter  when  becoming  of  age.  going  to  school  was  a  dream  for  her  ,  as  she  loved  learning  about  almost  everything  she  could.  however  ,  her  life  changed  drastically  due  to  the  murder  of  her  brother  ,  adrian.  nobody  knows  who  committed  the  crime  ,  all  anyone  can  suspect  is  that  death  eaters  were  behind  it.  after  all  ,  adrian  was  helping  professor  dumbledore  with  something  important  ,  with  the  possibility  of  the  first  wizarding  war  on  the  horizon.

     for  a  long  time  afterwards  ,  hestia  was  angry  at  the  world  &  spiraling  out  of  control.  she  didn’t  care  about  anything  anymore  ,  &  was  desperate  to  feel  something  other  than  pain.  it  took  her  a  lot  to  recover  ,  at  least  until  she  met  her  high  school  sweetheart.  it  was  him  who  helped  her  recover  ,  &  shortly  after  graduating  school  ,  hestia  became  pregnant  with  a  girl. out  of  fear  ,  she  ran  away  ,  planning  to  give  up  the  baby  for  adoption  when  she  was  born.  however  ,  after  the  baby  was  born  she  instantly  fell  in  love  &  named  her  after  her  brother.  

    since  then  ,  she  &  adrianna  have  been  living  together  peacefully  ,  until  murmurs  of  voldemort’s  return.  she  knew  she  wanted  to  help  create  a safer  world  for  her  daughter  to  grow  up  in  ,  &  bring  honor  to  her  brother’s  memory.  her  only  regret  is  that  her  daughter  has  never  known  her  father  ,  &  hopes  to  one  day  fix  that  error.
