"The violin plays a soft melody,
as my mind starts to feel ease.
Let the music wash over my soul,
make my mind pure and whole.
Let me be renewed."


Victor walked into the familiar gate between the wizarding world and the muggle world he came from, also known as the Leaky Cauldron. What? He couldn't be prose-like? That sounded much better than probable bar of sorts where everyone met. Right? Shaking his head Victor sat at a table, he was meeting Del here, or at least that's what the letter said. Since Victor had last met the...rather handsome...at that thought Victor blushed some, he really needed to get that under control.

Where was he? Oh yes...He had last saw the younger Puff before he went into a coma and nearly died, he winced some at that memory, he would get headaches and such ever since then, he even felt weaker ever since he had gotten over that cleaning hex. Was that the price of using cursed magic? Even unknowingly?

At least he knew what he wanted to become in life now.


I feel at ease you know?
My inner thoughts are, "I...I hope Del doesn't mind..."
I'm in the house of Hufflepuff.
I am a proud third year
My puppeteer says "..." Out of character.

The peppy blonde stepped into the building, a spring in his step and a bright grin on his face. Hands in his pockets, the twelve-year-old looked around, looking for a familiar head of pink hair that he hadn't seen in a while. He'd asked the other out for a walk via owl--- it was a spur of the moment thing that he'd found himself embarrassed about after he had sent it--- and hopefully, the other had accepted.

Scanning the area, he was surprised to see flowy pink locks. Speeding up his traipse, Del ran a hand through his hair, a sheepish grin on his face. Aahh, he knew he should have gotten there earlier! "Victor!" he greeted with a bright smile, pecking the other on the cheek in hellos. "I'm glad you're here! I'm so sorry I didn't get here earlier," he winced with a light laugh, scratching his cheek in embarrassment. "And I was the one who asked you too-- I'm really sorry," he apologized, sheepish grin back on.

Victor lightly tapped the table as he waited, he wasn't waiting for long though before Del showed up, he looked like he was embarrassed. ...Whatever could he be embarrassed about? That was when he got a peck on the cheek, Victor blushed a bit as he reasoned it was normal, he then gave Victor the usual French type of greeting where you kiss both cheeks, "Bonjour Del~" At the apology Victor just waved it off, "It's quite alright, oui?" He replied with a small smile, "I wasn't waiting long anyway~"

It was the truth, Victor hadn't waited long at all, it also helped Victor was glad to get closer to Del, ever since his conversation with Ariana and then Jess and Terren, he was feeling quite curious, "I'm glad you asked me out either way Del~" At the faux pas he let slip Victor blushed a bit more, "I...I mean as friends or...such..."

Well there goes his smooth entrance. His father was right, he was quite bad at making his French roots proud.


I feel nervous but excited you know?
My inner thoughts are, "I...I hope he doesn't think that....I...Oh my...Bury me now..."

"Bonjour to you too, Victor," the Norwegian smiled at the other's greeting. Forcing back the blush-- he'd had to bring out his army of dragons that currently resided in his mental arena to force the evil pink thing back into the cage labelled 'controllable bodily functions' but he did it, thank God--- "I'm glad you didn't wait too long-- I promise I won't be late next time," he assured the other, oblivious to the implications of his statement. He smelled like roses, Del realized, the thought occurring out of nowhere. With a sunny grin, the blonde gestured towards the door of the establishment with a brief wave of his hand.

"So, shall we?" Del asked, bright eyes peeking from behind the longer bangs that hung over them. "Are you hungry, though?" he added, when the thought came to him. "We can stay here and grab a bite before we go out, if you'd like," Del offered-- he'd pay if he did, of course. A small part of him hoped the other would say no-- he wouldn't refuse the other boy, of course not, but it was a beautiful day outside. Unintentionally sending a wistful look at the door, the blonde turned back to Victor, an awaiting smile on his face as he waited for the other's answer.

Victor stared for a moment at Del's face, it looked like the younger male was thinking of something, Victor hoped it wasn't anything too stressful. Life could get that way sometimes. As Del continued he giggled some, "Oh...Such a gentleman~" Del always did make him feel better, he needed this too. It was such an enjoyable feeling after all.

Victor raised a brow at the gesturing to the door and Del's offer, "Oh...I'm not all that hungry~" Victor thought for a moment, "Th-thanks for the offer though..." Now that he thought of that, was that an invitation? Or...wait...no this was just a friendly catching up meeting. It wasn't like they were on a...date or something.

"But...Oui...Let's set out, hm?" He replied with a small smile, "It's a nice day out anyway~" That plus Victor wasn't sure if this was the best place to hang out all day, what with how everyone rushed to and fro from this area, "Where shall we head off to?"

Victor would be fine going anywhere with Del, even a walk would be nice. Because it was Del...and Victor felt happy around the other male.


I feel at ease you know?

At the pinkette's answer, Del bit back an ecstatic grin, biting his lip to stop the huge smile that would undoubtedly spread across his face if he didn't do anything to stop it. He hated it sometimes when that happened. The last thing he needed was to scare someone off with his weird teeth. Grumbling internally about that, he turned to his companion, pondering on what they would do.

"Where shall we head off to?" he asked, parroting the other's question with a teasing smile. "Anywhere and everywhere, of course! I have you with me, so it's all right," he continued, ending the sentence with a small but bright smile. He was glad that Victor had chosen to go out instead of stay in the Leaky-- he liked the Leaky, but it was a bit unspacey for him. "Since we shall,," Del spoke, taking the other's hand and lacing their fingers together. "Let's go," he laughed, pulling the other gently towards the door.

Edwin Ryans
Dad specifically said never date Slytherins... how do I end up dating two and marrying one of them?


Wand: 12 1/2 inches, Eucalyptus, with Phoenix feather, knobby
Mediwizard
Husband of "Casey" Ryans, owner of Flourish and Blotts
Father of one


Edwin Ryans stared across the table at Dr. Sinclair League who looked less than delighted to be sitting in the Leaky Cauldron. The squib and best paid plastic surgeon was dressed in an expensive suit of some sort and Edwin merely wore a plain long sleeve shirt and jeans. They both were technically linked-Edwin had dated Sinclair's wife for a short month or two while Cara and he had both been in school, Edwin had helped arrange the meeting (or re-meeting) between Cara and Sinclair at the urging of his now wife and Cara, and now his wife had taken a loan from Dr. League to pay for the shop and the flat above the shop where the family lived.

What bothered Edwin was Cara's absolute refusal to see his wife, Casey, or Acacia, since they had returned from Paraguay. He understood Cara was still a part of the family officially and Casey was not but they had remained in contact while they were abroad. They were friends. It seemed cold of Cara to suddenly cut her off now. It wasn't like secret meetings couldn't be arranged.

"I suppose I should thank-you for meeting me in the first place," Edwin sighed. "I know your dislike for anything related to the wizarding world."

Sinclair Alfred-Jon League
[Squib and the Disgrace of the League Family]

My greatest fear is not being able to protect my family. I am a Squib. I may be able to provide but how can I protect?


"Then why ask me to come here at all?" Dr. League hissed. "After all, you are the one who showed up to my office. And I really don't appreciate the whole 'I'm considering botox and a nose job and only want the best' line."

Sinclair League's dark eyes were narrowed with deadly simmering anger at the mediwizard and in a way long-time friend. "I think your family has already far enough benefited from my charity."

"A loan isn't charity," Edwin replied, coldly. "And I don't care about the money, the issue is your wife. I don't care about the family politics... I don't and I don't entirely see why she would either at this point. It's rubbish she's going to hide for... what?"

Sinclair chuckled and replied, "Well, it is lovely you didn't have to grow up with a family like mine or Cara's and Acacia's to fully understand such things. Besides I did the loan behind Cara's back. She isn't aware you, Acacia, or is it a son you have now, has returned to England. And, I quite frankly plan to keep it that way. She has far too many Gryffindor traits for her own good. Quite frankly Acacia can keep the money if it keeps all of you away from my family."

Look at me you may think you see
Who I really am but you'll never know me
Every day it's as if I play a part
Now I see if I wear a mask
I can fool the world but I cannot fool my heart


Who is that girl I see staring straight back at me?
When will my reflection show who I am inside?


Remy apparated into the Leaky Cauldron, a letter having told her to meet David here... just about now, she confirmed with the clock. Gold eyes flicked around, the girl strolling about the room. In her left hand, her wand was held loosely, and in her right, an envelope that had clearly been opened. The only bit of information the teen showed visibly was a soft smile suggesting she only had good things to speak about today. She glanced at the clock again, wondering where David was.

Must I pretend that I'm someone else for all time?
There's a heart that must be free to fly
That burns with a need to know the reason why


Why must we all conceal what we think and how we feel?
Must there be a secret me I'm forced to hide?
I won't pretend that I'm someone else for all time
When will my reflection show who I am inside?
When will my reflection show who I am inside?

David took off to the Leaky Cauldron faster than a Hippogriff chancing after a dead ferret. He was so excited to share his news with Remy. Unlike his sister she would surely be thrilled to hear the news. He hadn’t even told his parents yet about the news but he knew they’d be happy about it proud even. Taking the floo network David was there in a flash.

Looking around for Remy as soon as he arrived, David quickly found her and dashed over to her beaming with happiness. “Remy! I see you got my letter.” He told her brightly. “I have something to share with you. Look at what I got in the post this morning.” David said pulling out the Prefect badge and holding it out in his head to her. “I’m a Prefect. Can you believe it?” he told her with excitement. The fifth year could hardly stand still he was so delighted.

Remy smiled wider when she saw David floo in. He looked overjoyed, and she couldn't help but wonder why. "I did indeed. After all, why else would I be here?" When he showed off what he had gotten in the post, her eyes went huge. "Ohmygosh, David! That's amazing! Congratulations!!" She hugged him tight, proud of his accomplishment. After releasing the younger Gryffindor, she led him to a vacant table and plopped him in one of the chairs. "Don't keel over on me, David! I have some news of my own to share."

Gold eyes sparkled brightly, then the girl slid the folded letter to David. Even glancing, it was clear to see it was from the Ministry, particularly the division of Games and Sports. But upon closer inspection, one could see that Remy Bleiddiaid had been accepted as a starting Chaser for the Welsh International team. Hopefully he wouldn't pass out from excitement. He had been the first one she had let slip to about applying, so she figured it was only fitting he was the first person to see the news in person. She had gotten the letter that morning, then cast several muffling charms around her room and screamed and danced in ecstasy. It had certainly been a great way to wake up.

“Good point. Unless you happen to be meeting someone else here by mere coincidence but I’m pretty sure that’s not the case.” David said happily. “Thank you Remy. I have to say you’re the first one I’ve told that would be excluding my sister who happened to be in the room at the time.” He told her. Just like he thought Remy was happy for him. If only he could get that kind of response from his sister.

Following Remy to a vacant table David smiled brightly at her. “I won’t, news what news?” David asked practically pouncing out of his chair with curiosity. Taking the folded letter off the table he knew right off the bat it had something to do with Remy’s plans at getting a job. Instantly he thought of Quidditch and when he saw that it was from the Games and Sports division he knew it was definitely about Quidditch. Reading it over David’s mouth fell open before he looked up at Remy wide eyed, she’d done it.

“Starting Chaser for the Welsh Team…” David started trying to stay calm which wasn’t working very well for him because at that moment his excitement broke through. "You did it Remy you really did it! This is absolutely amazing Remy Congratulations!” he shouted ecstatically as he leaped out of his chair and over to Remy for the second hug of the day. “I knew you could do it. This has got to be the best day ever.” He told her letting her go and reclaiming his spot at the table.

Remy nodded a bit, noting the boy was indeed correct. She didn't meet people often, after all. "Ah, I bet Chloe was just as happy for you as I am, right?" She nodded, then waited patiently while he read the letter. She did her best to seem nonchalant, but couldn't help the smile creeping up. When he started getting excited, she broke, giggling madly. He practically tackled her in a hug, so she squeezed him, until he released to go sit down. "Yep. The Welsh Team. My favorite one, even when I was little. I even speak the language!" Her last words were teasing, the girl overcome by compounded forms of excitement. She still had to tell her family! OH!! She had to tell Rufus!

"You know what this means, don't you?" Remy's voice now held a hint of challenge. Her eyebrow lifted, a smirk on her face. She slipped her hand into her bag, sitting beside her, and set a book on the table. It was her old copy of Advanced Potion Making, and she knew David should remember their deal. "You owe me. That was a hell of a hard try out." She grinned, remembering having to sneak past her family with all her injuries and sore spots. That had not been fun. Ultimately she survived, thanks in part to her potions skill, though most credit went to her mom for making freakishly healthy food. The girl smiled at David, hoping to get a chuckle from him.

"Lying to your wife isn't a good trait," Edwin answered. He stood, "I suppose you lot are hiding something you don't want the main family on either side to find out about. I am aware of Cara's position within the ministry... yes, I do, do my homework, and I am aware of the accident earlier this year, but, you must understand, Casey is probably more prideful than Cara ever was. But she gets hurt too."

"It is my job as her support to stand up against those who have wronged her. Out of respect to you and the loan I won't investigate for now," Edwin challenged, "However, once the loan is paid off along with interest, I'm not making any promises."

"And about Cara having too many 'Gryffindor' traits, you should know how hardheaded she is," Edwin finished. "I wouldn't want to be the one trying to hide information like the fact my family is back and Casey is owning a shop in Diagon Alley from her. Things like that have a way of biting you, Dr. League." He stood and left without waiting for the squib's response only noting his narrowed almost black eyes that contrasted with his blonde hair.

David hesitated a moment as he thought about Chloe’s reaction when she found out about the news. “Not exactly… my sister wasn’t really thrilled. In fact you could probably say she was a bit ticked off about it.” He told Remy wishing he could have said she was right. “She kind of said that I didn’t deserve to be Prefect.” He added before turning back to the happy side of things. “But that doesn’t matter. You made the team, now that matters.” David couldn’t help but smile when she said it was her favorite team. “So there’s the reason behind speaking the language.” He said with a smile.

David froze momentarily at Remy’s next set of words. As soon as he saw the Advanced Potions book he knew exactly what she was talking about. How could he possibly forget? “Uh… I was afraid you would remember that…” he told her as he laid his head on the table for a split second before looking back up at Remy. “Between you and my sister my brain is going to explode.” David said the smile that faltered with the idea of potions now back on his face. “But a deals a deal. Guess I’m going to have to pass my Potions OWL now.” He added. It was only fair that he put his blood, sweat, and tears into Potions like Remy did to get onto the Welsh team.
