Oh.
Something twists hard in her chest like when she first saw Harry, like when she accidentally called him James before immediately realizing her mistake, like when he stared at her like he'd seen a ghost.
(Terribly wonderful and overwhelming to meet you.)
Lily shakes her head with another earnest smile, reaching out with one hand to push back red hair, to linger touching it just for a moment. "It's not odd." Soft. "You're Harry's daughter?" A breath. "Tell me your name."
