Ashley kept on pleading but Sirius didn’t want to hear any of it. She wanted to rely on Remus to pacify his mate but he appeared to be having trouble with controlling himself. The amber eyes gave away Moony’s close proximity to the surface. So, Ashley urged her magic to extend towards both her soul-bonded, remembering Remus’ offhand comment back then about the way her magic seemed to calm theirs. A theory of hers regarding this phenomenon was that her magic was, in a way, dominant to theirs. After all, she was the one with the stronger core and she’d been the one to recognize their bond. She could hypothetically sway their magic in certain ways if she so desired. By theory, she could weaken them or make them stronger using her own magic. An idea to discover for another time.
