delphini au, voldemort wins 2
Delphini: Why is the sky blue?
Abraxas Malfoy: Mostly because of science. Partly because a mage was just really fed up with watching the real colour of the sky so they decided to paint it blue.
Delphini, nodding: That sounds about right.
Lord Voldemort: Stop lying to my child.
Abraxas Malfoy: Stop giving your daughter philosophy manifestos. She's five.
Lord Voldemort: That's what we bond over.
Abraxas Malfoy: This is what we bond over. Don't you want her to have a good relationship with me? I am her favourite, you know. Which is sad considering you two have a secret language.
Lord Voldemort: Secret? You understand everything we say. You have a little journal where you sounded out my hisses and roughly translated what they mean.
Abraxas Malfoy, retreating: Shhh, shh, no I don't. Shh, you never saw that.
Delphini: Can I have a snake?
Abraxas locks eyes with Voldemort
Lord Voldemort: Don't get my daughter a snake. She'll set it on someone and I don't need that chaos around here.
Abraxas Malfoy: The only snakes I ever allowed here have either all been people or horcruxes. Trust me, mon chou, in a household with 125 peafowls, a snake wouldn't last a day.
Delphini: Can I have a pony?
Abraxas & Voldemort: Why on earth would you want something so plebeian?
