Summary
Scorpius shrugs. “I like it. It only works if you go all the way in, though.”
Albus pauses. “What?”
“You know,” Scorpius says, wading in deeper. “Water. Healing properties. Whatever.”
Scorpius pauses and closes his eyes. Albus nods. He’s not sure if he’s nodding because he agrees and understands, or if he’s nodding because it’s Scorpius, whose eccentricities are delightful and strange. The water’s too cold for his taste. And he doesn’t like being outside nearly as much as Scorpius does. But if Scorpius says that the lake washes away his sorrow, or whatever, then Albus will sit on a fallen tree and read until Scorpius feels ready to leave.

Summary
James told Albus something ages ago, before they went to Hogwarts and things got kind of weird, before they fixed the weirdness and became friends – not just brothers, but friends – and before they were even really cognizant of what bravery is. He said that you really only need to be brave sometimes, in fleeting moments, when it really counts.
“How will I know when it counts, though?” Albus, all of perhaps eight, had asked.
James had an answer, because his big brother always had an answer.
“You’ll know,” he’d said. It had sounded like a cop-out at the time. “You’re smart, Al. You’ll know when you’ve got to be brave.”
