Who: Corner and Iris Conway
What: :[/:]
Where: The Conway household
When: Late Friday night

To say that Iris Conway was exhausted was an understatement. The past week had been stressful and terrifying, but she was glad to be safe. Unfortunately, she couldn't sleep and was sitting in the living room at home, bundled up on the couch in the comforter from her room. Her fingers idly played with the locket that once belonged to her mother, eyes staring off into space as a reporter droned on about something trivial on the WWN. Amazingly, she'd done well this far to hold back her tears. She wanted to be strong, as if her lack of emotion would prove that she could handle the tough job of being an auror in the future.

He arched his brow at her and blinked. "Transfiguration? Well, I think that I should certainly be able to help with that." Corner had done well in most of his studies, honestly.

Iris nodded. "I...haven't been doing so well with it." Hey, she'd been putting off telling him for a while now; at least she was picking a decent time to break it? "Not that I haven't been trying." But maybe the help from him would make things easier in the long run.

"Well," he rubbed his hand over the back of his neck. "We'll have to see what we can do." He wasn't the sort to yell over this type of thing, but he would have liked her to be honest with him from the beginning.

"I've had a tutor for the past few months." She'd wanted to tell him, but didn't want him to think she couldn't handle being an auror. She wanted to be the good daughter, always able to handle things. She yawned, no longer able to hold it back. "I don't think he was very helpful, though." Just thinking about Barty's lack of compassion while they worked infuriated her.

"Well, that's a young man for you." He hesitantly eased her down onto the couch, settling the blankets around the girl and continuing to stay next to her for the moment, at least.

"I love you, Da," she said softly as she pulled the blanket closer to her body, eyes already shut. She was home, she was safe; she didn't have to be afraid to sleep.

"I love you too, Iris. You know that." He smoothed her hair down again and shifted, hoping she'd be able to sleep for a while at least.
