Cash felt like a void for absorbing other people's anger; Ford and Theo had both been upset by this in a way he couldn't understand. Of course he was getting married, of course he'd sworn a Vow — because at least with the Vow he'd gotten a few years of Quidditch, and that had always been more than he'd dared to ask for. And maybe Quidditch hadn't saved him, wasn't the same lifeline as it had been when he was younger — but it was still something.
He looked back at Theo, a little baffled. "It was always going to be like this eventually," he said. They didn't get it. He didn't understand why they didn't get it. This would have made sense to everyone in the family, but no one outside of it understood. And Cash knew that the Lestranges were the Lestranges, he knew — but sometimes he relearned it anyways.
