“You know, we don’t really study dragons at Durmstrang. They saw it as no point. That didn’t stop me. And it seems the gods above, and below, admired me for that strength. Now I have this sweetheart who could never leave my side. Welcome to the family, Victoria. Victoria Cherry-Wood has a nice ring to it. Doesn’t it?”
“Oh she is my sweet little angel. You’ll grow up to be so big and strong, don’t you worry! Even if you stay tiny like this forever, that won’t make you any less of a dragon.”
“You were one of the best things to ever come into my life. You’ve made me so happy, and I couldn’t be more honored to be the one to raise you. Feels like only yesterday that you were just an egg.”
“I love you, so much, little Victoria. You are going to grow up so big and strong. You’ll live a wonderful life, and I’m happy to be part of it. We are going to show the world how wonderful your kind is. I love you. And I know you love me. Let’s make history, and show them that this muggleborn is worthy. And that you are worthy of love, all the same. My sweet little Victoria. We can do it!”
