Astoria Greengrass ALBUS tries to read his friend’s eyes.
Your mum? It’s got worse?
SCORPIUS
It’s got the worst it can possibly get.
ALBUS sits down beside SCORPIUS.
ALBUS
I thought you’d send an owl...
SCORPIUS
I couldn’t work out what to say.
ALBUS
And now I don’t know what to say...
SCORPIUS
Say nothing.
ALBUS
Is there anything...
SCORPIUS
Come to the funeral.
ALBUS
Of course.
SCORPIUS
And be my good friend.

I can’t talk to him either. Scorpius. Especially since – Astoria has gone. I can’t even talk about how losing her has affected him. As hard as I try, I can’t reach him. You can’t talk to Albus. I can’t talk to Scorpius. That’s what this is about. Not about my son being evil. Because as much as you might take the word of a haughty centaur, you know the power of friendship.

I’m still the child of Voldemort, without a mother, giving sympathy to the boy who doesn’t ever give anything back. So I’m sorry if I’ve ruined your life because I tell you – you wouldn’t have a chance of ruining mine – it was already ruined. You just didn’t make it better. Because you’re a terrible – the most terrible – friend.

The Daily Prophet today – three wizards blowing up bridges to see how many Muggles they can kill with one blast – is that you?
DRACO
Be very careful.
SCORPIUS
The ‘Mudblood’ death camps, the torture, the burning alive of those that oppose him. How much of that is you? Mum always told me that you were a better man than I could see, but this is what you really are isn’t it? A murderer, a torturer, a—

[Mum] said that grandfather didn’t like her very much – opposed the match – thought she was too Muggle-loving – too weak – but that you defied him for her. She said it was the bravest thing she’d ever seen.
DRACO
She made being brave very easy, your mother.
SCORPIUS
But that was – another you.

You know what I loved most about your mother? She could always help me find light in the darkness. She made the world – my world anyway – less – what was the word you used – ‘murky’.
SCORPIUS
Did she?
DRACO studies his son.
DRACO
There’s more of her in there than I thought.

You’re a king, and I’m a professor. They’ll only attack with good reason. Think about those you love, think about why you’re doing this.
SCORPIUS
I can hear my mother. She wants me – my – help but she knows I can’t – help.
SNAPE
Listen to me, Scorpius. Think about Albus. You’re giving up your kingdom for Albus, right?

We were capable of having children, but Astoria was frail. A blood malediction, a serious one. An ancestor was cursed... it showed up in her. You know how these things can resurface after generations... [...] I didn’t want to risk her health, I said it didn’t matter whether the Malfoy line died with me – whatever my father said. But Astoria – she didn’t want a baby for the Malfoy name, for pure blood or glory, but for us. Our child, Scorpius was born... it was the best day of both our lives, although it weakened Astoria considerably. We hid ourselves away, the three of us. I wanted to conserve her strength... and so the rumours started.

Love blinds. We have both tried to give our sons not what they needed, but what we needed. We’ve been so busy trying to rewrite our own pasts, we’ve blighted their present.
