“ yes i am. ” delaney’s smile was both sweet and tender as she fluttered her eyes open, hazel eyes beaming with excitement at the mere mention of the meteor shower. her grip on her satchel’s bag tightened a little. the witch has been waiting for the cosmical event for weeks ! she would have been beaming on her heels right now if it wasn’t for the fact that her heeled, strappy shoes weren’t meant to be used to jump, run and skip with. had to learn that the hard way when she skipped her way out of st. mungos on a rainy night once. and not only that ! head girl delaney saw her life flashing through her eyes when a heel broke as she ran after a group of fourth years to stop them from causing magical mischief at the great hall. she grimaced at the memory before chuckling. “ i am most excited to see the shooting stars than the wish itself, actually. ” she hummed. “ but my mom passed me the family’s grimoire after graduating, and i am pretty sure there’s a wishing spell waiting for me to use it. sadly i haven’t thought of anything. pretty sure i will wish something dumb like, oh, i wish i was a cat and then i will be a cat forever. ” delaney pulled a face. 「 ✨  delaney has brought up a canon object. x3 」  「 ✨  delaney has mentioned a canon magical object. x5 」 「 ✨  delaney has mentioned something from hogwarts: a history. 」 

that feeling in particular was mutual. even if, fatima herself, had no idea what she wanted to wish for. admittedly? there wasn’t really anything in her life that she wanted to change. and she had briefly heard people mumbling about how careful you had to be. merlin last thing she wanted was to mess something up! now that was just un-needed pressure about wanting things to be perfect in the sense of not potentially making things worse. 

“shooting stars are brilliant! i remember a memory of playing with my brother, in our backyard in france.. and we seen one. it was gorgeous.” she had plenty of fun memories; playing with her cousins and brother, growing up and in the beautiful backyard with flowers. how she had ran through the flower bed ( more than once ) and smashed a few flowers, how her mom had gotten so mad. but quincy had taken the blame, also more than once. regardless of her insisting not to. oh those, were the days!  “oh that’s incredible. quincy got my mother’s side of the family’s grimories when we graduated, so i get what you mean!” there’s a musical laugh that falls from her lips, a hand waving in dismissal. “if it makes you feel any better, my teammates are yanking each other’s wands about what they plan on wishing for. one of them said they wanted to be able to walk on a cloud.” there’s a shake of her head, sure, they all teased each other but it was like a big group of family at the end of the day. no hard feelings. “i’m sure you’ll think of something. i don’t even know what i want to wish for.. i thought about wishing to find a pair of these shoes, i’ve been dying to buy them.. but they keep selling out of my size.”

“ at least you’re free now, no ? ” delaney’s smile was soft as she eyed the former gryffindor from her spot, a little pout warming up her features. “ have you tried the coffee from the cart next to wiseacre’s shop ? ” her inquiry may have been a little bit too haphazard, but she promised ( to no one but herself, really ) that she had a point. “ their coffee is not only good, but it will help you stay with energy after such a long day. ” the blonde grinned. “ just ask them to add a bit of sugar, though. it’s too bitter. ” she stuck her tongue out, scrunching her nose as if expressing disgust.  “ yeah, what was the name of ye’ quidditch team again ? ” delaney couldn’t help but cringe at her own question. she really was so clueless at topics that involved quidditch… as clueless as the way she used to be when she first walked into her first transfiguration class as a first year from hogwarts. it was like if rowena ravenclaw had casted a confudus charm on the witch ! not like she would do that, though, but still. delaney shook her head and gave her surroundings a quick look, smiling at the wix that were enjoying their afternoon in the likes of diagon alley. she was looking over whizz hard books when she opened her mouth. “ from former head girl to former head girl, ye’ also got worried that the castle would fall on you, too ? ” she said that giggling before looking back at the older witch, eyes sparkling with amusement but curiosity, too. “ you know, i miss it. many first, second years made me see me’ luck and i may have cried more than five times ‘cause people just wouldn’t listen but it was fun. i miss hogwarts, too. even when i was scared of it fallin’ on me. ” delaney sighed softly, closing her eyes as if she was looking at an interesting film behind her eyelids. “ ye’ believe my wish will come true if i wish to go back to my seventh year of hogwarts when the meteor shower happens ? ” she giggled. she was obviously not going to wish that ! 「 ✨  delaney has brought up a canon object. x11 」  「 ✨  delaney has mentioned a canon magical object. x13 」  「 ✨  delaney has mentioned something from hogwarts: a history. x5 」 

“thank goodness for that! i’m so thankful to be done for today.” fatima admits, as much as she loved quidditch--practice sometimes could be stressful, and overall.. just not that great. other times it would be great and so much fun. it just depends. “the coffee cart near wiseacre’s? i don’t believe i have. do you recommend it?” the former blonde wasn’t a huge coffee drinker. mostly in the mornings with four or five spoonfuls of sugar and some cream. now that was the perfect start to a morning. “i’ll do that then. sounds perfect to me i could use some energy and a pick me up, to get me through the rest of the day!” the smile and look on her features showed she appreciated what delaney had suggested, and she looked forward to giving it a try. “thank you.”

“appleby arrows.” the half-veela nods her head, or the arrows-- “of course. there were plenty of times as head girl when i was so panicked and didn’t know what i was doing. afraid that the school would collapse or felt overwhelmed.. because i had too many extracurricular’s.. and well, quidditch of course.” she felt that perhaps was just what came with the shiny badge. “i think it’s just perfectly normal! and i like being helpful, so i was happy to be able to give you some advice.” that was true, the brunette did like helping others out it always left her feeling accomplished. “me too sometimes.. just because adulthood can be hard sometimes.  but i also loved my time at hogwarts and know that i’m where i’m supposed to be now. so i wouldn’t change it. i know the feeling! a lot of times nobody would listen to me either. or take me seriously either.. because i’m not scary enough i guess.” not a statement that were true, nor would anyone believe that if they had seen her upset or angry. more so the latter. “i mean possibly.. i don’t know isn’t there anything else you’d want to wish for? perhaps for something fun! are you looking forward to the meteor shower, in that case? i know i am.”

𝓢loane Street was the height of Luxury Fashion in Muggle London. It was every high society girl’s dream. Cold counters manned by even colder salesman, you could smell the designer perfumes wafting outside every time a door opened. 

When Claramae shopped there, she usually had a satisfied smile on her face, a twinkle in her sea green eyes not magically produced or wore her best bored model look, just for kicks. Today, she looked normal— or at least, that was what she was aiming for as her mother trailed after her. In the Wizarding World, Millicent Bagnold was the Minister. Here, she was just another rich woman dressed in finery, luminous black locks scooped into a bun with not one hair out of place. There was no question of whether or not there was a credit card hot in her pocket, itching to make a purchase. 

She was also here spending genuine time with her daughter, which was weird. So weird. Weirder than could be put into words.

Least weird of all was walking into Dior and seeing Fatima Black. Ironic, considering both the witch and designer were french. ( &. @aveelaxfatima )

「 ✨  claramae has brought up a canon object x5. 」

fatima adored the fashion that was in the muggle world, although not many knew it was where she even purchased a lot of her things. it was so different from the wizarding world fashion. including perfumes a plenty as she had a lot and some weren’t used at all, where as others were constantly. as well as shoes. both were to die for! but very seldom did she purchase a lot from high end stores, not because she couldn’t afford it. but it was more so one of those occasional ‘i’ll treat myself’ every now and then kind of ordeal.

it may have just been one of her favorite stores, chocolate hues lit up at like a child in a chocolate store-- and how she often looked like around sweets. but this was different, it was excitement about what was new! and what she planned on treating herself to. so many choices! so much time. as she internally debated on if she was looking for anything in particular. there’s her signature smile written across her features, as the former blonde glances around the shoe section. in search of a new pair of shoes, and most likely the first pair that caught her eye. a glittering pair, in particular managing to do just that. a soft melodic hum sounding as she did so, before her hues catch sight of a familiar face which catches her attention--and she makes her way in claramae’s direction. “hello, claramae! it’s good to see you.”

″ that’s what i said ! i asked him what spell he used because y'know, if it was true i would definitely want to try it myself. but he just mumbled something and excused himself. ″ lulu rolled her eyes. ″ boys are so silly, especially gryffindors. always trying to one-up each other. everything was a competition of who’s got the biggest… broomstick, if you know what i mean. ″ the witch winked exaggeratedly, failing to suppress a foolish giggle. ″ they were all show-offs. finley just didn’t know the line between exaggerated and totally untrue. but i heard he’s working at the ministry now. his wife comes down to get her hair done every few weeks. they just had a baby, last i heard, so that’s nice. ″

“i’ve never heard of that spell.. if that’s a thing.” fatima says with that of a look that showed that she was thinking. or rather racking over her mind trying to remember if she had ever heard of that. “i mean that’s true! i think it’s JUST a gryffindor thing.” giggles falling from her lips. as the former blonde shakes her head at lulu. “blimey! i plead that i have no idea what you’re on about. it was just a part of his personality, it’s nice to be different than everyone else. but it one of the great things about finley. as ridiculous as it could be, it always made for a great laugh. oh? that’s really good! i’m so so happy to hear all is well. i’m sure you hear how everyone is, working with wix’s hair and everything.”

“  don’t worry about it  !  it’s not nearly as much room as a hippogriff would take up,  ”  alecto jokes.  “  but i’ve been well. handling the business.  you know what they say,  time is  galleons. and whoever coined that term was not wrong. with that and wedding planning,  it’s definitely taken up most of my time.  merlin  !  it’s been a while since i’ve had time to myself.  ”  she normally never did have time to herself.  not when she was busy owling and meeting with board members.  may merlin bless enchanted coffee cups.  if it weren’t for them,  she doubted she’d be able to stay awake to make floo calls to overseas members that were also a part of her company.  “  but enough about me and how my life isn’t at all  interesting.  how have you been ?  ”

「 ✨ alecto has brought up a canon object x3 」  「 ✨ alecto has used a wizarding idiom x3 」 

“i mean true! but thank you.” bell-like laughter falls from fatima’s lips, her signature smile across her features. “time is definitely galleons. or so i have always heard at least. oh yeah! wedding planning. if you ever need anything in that department feel free to let me know, as i’ve done that and everything. it wouldn’t be a problem, i’d honestly be delighted to help in anyway possible! it seems that way for sure, you should take some time for yourself soon. and just have the most relaxing day possible.” the former blonde offers, knowing it was important to make time for yourself and to also have fun. both were important. “not interesting? it sounds plenty interesting to me! i’ve not been up to much either, just practice and about the usual. it’s been rather quiet but that’s not always a bad thing. but otherwise i’ve been lovely. thank you.”

delaney’s response was just an amiable simper, a head tilting just the slightest to the side. “ applebye carrows are bein’ hard on ye’, fatima ? ” the short in height witch knew she had just mispronounced the famous quidditch team in a very grandiose way, but she still smiled. she just hoped that the former gryffindor wouldn’t mind, not when almost everyone knew how, dare she say it, …delayed she was on topics regarding the popular wizarding sport. delaney liked watching it when she was in hogwarts, yes, but she never understood what was going on ! truth be told, fatima black may be an idol, an inspiration to the likes of delaney lovelace, but the former ravenclaw only knew fatima was part of the appleby arrows because of her life as a vivid witch weekly reader. not like she reads the quidditch columns, anyways… she would just beam at fatima’s name and say something like, i know her ! before flipping the page. the wavy haired witch chuckled. “ i mispronounced that, right ? sorry. ‘m not the greatest when it comes to quidditch… stuff. ” she giggled, gentle hands working on the zipper of her satchel. “ it’s so good to see ye’, fatima. i believe our last conversation involved me almost getting a panic attack ‘cause i was scared of hogwarts falling apart while i was a head girl, right ? ” she giggled. “ hogwarts stands still so getting a calming drought that night was for nothing. well, for calmin’ me down, of course, but yeah. ”  「 ✨  delaney has brought up a canon object. x6 」  「 ✨  delaney has mentioned a canon magical object. x10 」 

“not them per se, just practice. it was just so long today.” fatima says with that of a shake of her head, more than happy it was over for the day and she now had free time. as much as she loved quidditch, and practice on days like today it had just tired her out. noticing that delaney hadn’t said it right, but she didn’t mind! and one wouldn’t have even noticed that-- she had, with the big smile written across her features. mind too preoccupied on how excited she was to see her friend!

“you did, it’s okay! it happens.” came the brunette’s reassured smile, and a look to match. showing that it really was okay! “it’s alright it’s not everyone’s cuppa tea. but i appreciate that you did your best.” the former blonde beams at her friend. “it’s really good to see you too! it feels like it’s been so long. i’m glad we’re changing that. and i can’t believe it’s been that long.. wow, merlin-- and i knew you’d be alright! as well that hogwarts would still be standing. but i get completely where you were coming from.”

“  if you insist.  ”  she picks up her charmed quill just as its finished writing down what needed to be sent to her mother.  she’ll owl that list later.  merlin forbid she would ever let her mother handle that.  everyone she’s met in wizarding  society  will be in attendance if she were to have it her way  !  with a quick brandish of her wand,  alecto cast a spell to make sure the ink on the parchment has fully dried.  she with that,  she cast another spell to ensure the roll of parchment was safely placed inside her bag.  once that was all settled,  alecto  finally  took a seat across from fatima.  “  it’s quite alright.  had a couple of things to finish up myself.  ”

“oh, of course!” fatima says with a reassuring nod of her head, bright smile across her features.  if she said it she meant it-- and there was nothing wrong with company. in fact merlin she was always up for company. “if you’re sure. i still feel bad i was taking up all the room.” she reckoned she wasn’t the first to have done that before, even if that had been the same kind of thing with her-- the brunette nods her head in agreement. “i get it completely! it’s been a little while since i seen you last, how have you been? good i hope.”

「 ✨ fatima has used a wizarding idiom x2」

fatima waves one of her hands, in a manner almost as if she was waving the thought away--and she was, it was one of those hand motions that resembled the same kind of poise that she had. “no, no i insist feel free.” as there’s another gesture towards the seat, with a reach of her wand within grasp-- and the proper spell, the fall colored cloak moved from the seat and into her ready hand, to which she placed onto the back of her own seat. doing the same with her belongings-- that she had also placed there for the moment that were now moved onto the floor at her feet, and out of the way. it was rather rude! now that she thought about it, at least now she was fixing that. a friendly smile written across the brunette’s features. “sorry about that.”

fatima had planned weeks ago, meeting up with her dad for lunch-- after she’d finished practice for the day, and it’d be one of her dad’s days off at the ministry. which meant it worked well! it was always nice for quality time as well as one-on-one catch up time. time spent chatting about things in general, quidditch-- the appleby arrows, and everything the father daughter duo usually spoke about. the pair had always been close and even now, and often when her mom was free she often did the same thing where she met up for tea at madam puddifoot’s or another tea shop, as it was what her mom deemed a proper visit. whenever both of them were available that was. and rather in the blink of an eye lunch was over, and she still had things left to do. perhaps, she’d even shop around a bit. she pats her maroon colored cloak looking for something, as she always double checked whenever leaving somewhere; that she had everything. at the routine check she realizes something isn’t accounted for. “well.. hippogriffs.” came the words out of her mouth, as she searches through her bag and then her pockets. only to realize it was just her! being tired after practice. “merlin! i’m sorry. hello! how are you?” she says with that of her signature bright smile. “don’t mind me. i’m just tired from practice.”

        “ no no, don’t worry about it. “  he picked up his wand, casting a duplicating spell on the remainder of the kettle chips.  duplicated food never tasted all that good but by the time he’d smothered them in vinegar, you’d hardly notice.  “ i got this. “  he popped one of the chips into his mouth to accentuate his point – only after dousing it in vinegar and pepper.   “ oh it was dreadful.  i’m not the biggest fan of dementors but they’re all well and good.  they serve a purpose, y’know ?  but red caps ?  they’re basically born out of bloodshed and want to bludgeon people to death. “  he shuddered.  “ awful. “  he popped another chip in his mouth before offering them to fatima.  “ i haven’t seen any costumes that have really been that spooky. “  he had to admit.  “ it’s all very tame this year.  though i did see one bloke who’d done some kind of charm to make his eye hang from the socket. “  he shuddered.  “ it was disgusting.  i almost abandoned the chips when i spotted him. “  almost.  it would take more than a gory eye-less socket to make him abandon food.

“hey, better than nothing.” fatima offers with a nod of her head. something was always better than nothing! “i don’t think anyone is a huge fan of dementors.. especially after EVERYTHING there is you can read on them. it does makes sense.” there’s a soft shake of her head at the thought. merlin she couldn’t really blame anyone for that. as she goes ahead and takes a chip with that of a shrug of her shoulders. “me either. spooky costumes are always kind of brilliant to see. especially because of the creativity.” she supposed she couldn’t complain about things being tame. even if it was the season for it! especially after the whole incident. it was nice that things were more on the relaxed side. “i think that’s nice. even if it’s the season for all things spooky and witchy. oh gross. no i definitely didn’t see that, and don’t think i want to.. either.” there’s a scrunch of her nose at the mere thought, and that had been more than enough. with magic. spells and charms, things were more realistic in the wizarding world. but than again she didn’t know much about the difference-- between the two. and the muggle world on this particular celebration, as she’d never gotten to celebrate it with muggles or see how they did things. “as much as i love food.. and merlin himself knows this. i might have dropped just dropped any food i had if i seen that. and that’s saying something! since that’s rather cruel to food.”

     christian smiled one of his smiles that was reserved for fatima. had been since he realized she was the witch he’d seen shopping for robes, right before starting hogwarts. a little shy, a little unsure, but overall captivated. “yeah?” he followed after her.. up until he remembered he had stuff in the trunk, and then he jogged backwards with a slight flush on his face. “it’s just, i feel like a lot of that stuff hasn’t been left up to you, you know. so i always want to make sure that you have a say when it comes to those things. all things, but especially those.” christian led the way to the entrance of the forest, wand in one hand, and purchased ministry bag, enchanted with the extension charm, slung over his broad shoulders. first, he performed a spell to make sure there were no muggles present. then he casted a wand lighting charm, and pointed it down at his map. “this way,” he said with a smile just as bright as the tip of his wand. with the help of the map and magic to guide them, it didn’t take long for them to find the perfect spot to watch the meteor shower, or for them to unpack their things for that matter. christian pulled away from his telescope, pausing to breath in the air at the edge of the forest. he closed his eyes to memorize the moment. “if you had to choose, would you rather be in a forest filled with fog or sun? during the daytime?” considering it was nighttime, it didn’t seem all that relevant, but christian was naturally inquisitive. he came up behind fatima, wrapping his arms around her. “i’d choose the fog,” he said, burying his face in her neck. “there’s just something about it.”

“of course, always ” fatima spoke as if the answer, was a clear one-- to her? it was. “it’s okay. even when that was the case i was never upset about it. i knew there’d be more things that my input would be needed in. but thank you. for, you, know ALWAYS thinking about me.” the words falling from her lips with ease, and it were true she did appreciate the thought and knowing just how much she was cared about-- it was one of those things where ( even if she already knew this ) it just made her heart and her happy. that truly the only way she could describe it. as always! she didn’t dwell on things she couldn’t change, only on what she could. “together we’ll figure those things out. the way it should be. i promise. everything else? it’s just water under the bridge, mon chéri.” there’s a nod of her head, her smile widening as the way was lead. sometimes magic especially in times such as this. it was amazing what all it could do. even if she had been raised around it. her dad having came from a pureblood wizard family.. and her mom being a full veela. after all magic had always been there and used a lot around her growing up. so, whilst she always got to be around it before hogwarts, it still amazed her. not even she could deny that it was great being a witch! it had been what she described at the perfect spot, she did love being outdoors and her arms had started upwards and then opened up; as there’s a graceful spin in that of a circle, with the grace that resembled that of a swan. as a musical laugh fell from dusted pink lips, but then again she in general was happy. being outdoors only furthered boosted her mood. to her it was almost like snow and ice charms, it always made her feel better and being outdoors did the same thing. it was at the question; a hum sounded from her like a melody. or the start of a song. as her mind ponders the thought, and then at arms being wrapped around her-- her smile widens further and her features lit up as did chocolate hues. “me too, i’d choose the fog.” as much as she liked the sun, the feeling of the sun radiating on your skin and the warmth. “it’s kind of.. mysterious isn’t? in a sense." the former blonde could understand that, and it made sense to her in particular. “i know it took me a minute to answer but it’s tricky! now if you asked me to choose between snow or a warm day.. i’d answer that one so quick.”

「 ✨  lulu has mentioned a canon object x3 」

“under his pointed hat?” fatima repeated, amazed at the thought-- but then it made her wonder if it would even fit under there. she reckoned it’d be hard to balance something like that, even with perhaps a hand from magic. “i don’t reckon it would even fit. plus, it’d be difficult to balance especially if it was on his head. alcohol bottles aren’t really that light. i wouldn’t blame you for that, i’d have to give him the benefit of the doubt!” are the former blonde’s words, as she pauses to take a sip of her drink. “merlin! that reminds me of how i actually heard a few gryffindor’s mention that he said similar things to them as well. you know how hogwarts was.. gossip somehow always got around. perhaps it was to show off, or something of that nature? but even if wasn’t true, finley always came up with things that just made you wonder.”

    christian dove into a story involving atlas black, his father. how there was a particular star that shined brightest over his childhood manor in wiltshire, right around his birthday. it was beautiful; dazzling, he told fatima. all light and gold. “it’s called pollux. it’s the brightest star in the constellation of gemini, the closest giant star to the sun. i’d start there depending on the season, since it’s not always visible. it just feels right.” he parked the car. the wizard turned to look at his witch, and when he did, he smiled at her like she was the brightest star in the sky. not just on this night, this month, or this season; but for all time. “he’d also show me the constellations of the noble and most ancient,” he made a grim and fastidious, though altogether soft expression, “house of black.” his expression turned serious. he unclipped his seatbelt. “no matter what they say, it’ll be their right to know them too, ‘tima. if you want them to.” christian tucked a strand of moonlit mahogany behind her ear, his hickory hues serene, before getting out of the car. he hustled around the vintage convertible to open the door for her.

「 ✨  christian has mentioned a canon object x3. 」

fatima had been able to envision how beautiful, it must have been-- as how it sounded. “it sounds beautiful.” even if she had no idea where in the constellation it was, or what it had actually looked like but from the story and being able to picture it. the former blonde could only figure that thought to be true. “i can only imagine what that must have been like. must have been really great for you to want to pass it along. but i love the idea of you doing that. i can see us having a lot of little traditions like that, and i think that’s rather beautiful.” it was one of those moments that made her realize that, that were as special as that. her voice that sounded as light as it always did. took a slightly softer edge to it. “i know, i would never do that or want to. i don’t want to be that person. to stand in the way of anything or make matters worse.” though words were true, she didn’t want to do anything to make anything worse-- but regardless of that, she still wouldn’t have wanted that. the half-veela unclips the seatbelt, and there’s a thank you that falls from her lips. one of her hands smooths down the jacket that was tied around her waist, doubtful she’d need it-- because she loved cold weather, and could tolerate it. “i love you say that if i want to, but it’d be your decision too. everything will always be decided on together, that i can promise.” it’s a wider smile that spreads across her features, a bell-like laugh falls from her lips. as she mentions the one star she could always spot. and that she knew by name. “about the only star i can always find is big dipper, i think because it’s easier to find.”

    the autumn breeze blew back against his face, tickling his cheeks, tips of his ears and nose pink, as he steered his vintage convertible north down the scenic route. he drove past seas of green cloaked in the white midnight light of the moon, on the hunt for the best spot for the meteor shower. in the trunk was a standard magical telescope he’d purchased in diagon alley years ago. it picked up details that muggles didn’t know to look for. christian brought the back of fatima’s hands to his lips, kissing it gently. his lips twitched, the involuntary smile lighting up his face. “when we have kids,” he said over the wind whipping past their faces, “i’m going to teach them about the stars. just like my father taught me.” ( &. @aveelaxfatima )

「 ✨  christian has mentioned a canon object x3. 」

one of the things fatima loved about the stars, was looking up and wondering how many others were doing the same exact thing and what they would be thinking-- or even what star had caught that person’s eye. despite her not being able to tell star from star, they were BREATHTAKING to look at. there wasn’t anything like it. especially since how stars were bigger and brighter than the sun. at his words and the kiss brought to her hand, had earned a brighter smile that spreads with ease across her features. “i love that.” were the first words out of her mouth, and she did. most definitely. "i’m sure they will too. i know, when i was a kid i would have loved being taught about the stars.” it was just, one of those things she knew. “tell me, which star would you teach them about first? or show them first?”

“oh yes! definitely it was such a fun party.” fatima never complained, about reminiscing-- her hogwarts days; were a big part of who she was today, and had shaped her in a lot of ways. “i still don’t know who did it. or how they’d managed to sneak it in so easily. i’ve got to give them props though. i think, it’s just one of those things that those who said it thought it’d sound cool. or make them cooler, in some kind of way.” back in those days the half-veela didn’t drink alcohol, and even now she only had a glass. sometimes more, on occasion. “i think some held onto the bottle a little longer.. instead of the whole passing it around. because i remember only seeing it only once or twice, it was rather hard to keep track of.”
