Ashley grimaced, carefully turning away from the two older Marauders. There was one thing she knew they would refuse with everything they had, and that was their soul bond. The huge age gap existed, her parents were close friends of theirs, and then there was the fact that one of them was her godfather (and they were maybe distantly related in some way, but really, who wasn’t?). There were a lot of complications the public would see, thus giving Sirius and Remus a whole ton of excuses. And the worst of it all, who said that they would reciprocate Ashley’s feelings? What was the point in her worrying over things that might not even happen? Sirius and Remus might not even care that they were soul-bonded.
