"I love the new Butterfly Garden you've created on the grounds. It's now my favourite spot next to the library." He complimented. And of course Leo would be cheerful. He probably hadn't been dreading this event for days. Eh, I need to just stop being in a grumpy mood already and try to have some fun. He forced himself to smile. "Things are goin' jus' fine, Leo. Finally feel like 'm settlin' in an' all that."
This was excellent news! "High praise! An' I'm glad ter hear it! I's my favori' spot as well, actually." Besides his own home, obviously. Because... that went without saying. "Bu' listen, I better ge' in there. Have t' find out when i's my turn ter be auctioned and all that." With a genuine smile this time, he walked past the table and into the madness. Quote:

The groundskeeper hiding in a corner.
Well that just wasn't going to do. He needed to get out and mingle with the people. That's why he was there, right? "You know, you shouldn't hide in the corner like that. Especially wearing that," she said gesturing to his outfit. "I bet there are plenty of women here who would love to get a look at those legs." Herself included.
What, she could look. There was no ring on her finger. Oh no, here comes Cece.
There wasn't much use trying to hide. She'd already spotted him. His plan had failed miserably. "An' why not? I'm jus' observin' people." Or hiding from them. Same thing. What does my outfit have to do with where I stand? Others are wearing far more ridiculous things. Like that dinosaur over there, for instance.
His brain went sort of fuzzy and a touch of color came to his cheeks. That... was not what he was expecting to hear. In another time he may have enjoyed the comment, but now... after Ruby and Ciaran... Things were different. "Well... tha's.. Tha's nice of yeh ter say, Cece." And he should make this message very clear. "Bu' I'm no' really lookin' fer that sort of attention righ' now."
His eyes searched the room for some excuse to leave this conversation. "Erm.. I need ter... go ask when 'm up fer auctioning. Have ter be ready, yeh know." With a polite nod, he ran moved past her and off as far away as possible to the other side of the room. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Quote:

This boy also got a giant hug from the fifteen year old who was super excited to see her old captain. "You're here too?! How are you?" And was she squishing him too hard? Whoops. She quickly let him go and smiled sheepishly, stepping back to admire his costume. "Cool costume!" He smiled and hugged his former teammate right back. "Yeah, of course I am! Couldn't pass up an opportunity to help out my old school, right?" Along with other perks. "Plus I get to see cool people like you, so it's definitely worth the price of admission." And considering he played Quidditch professionally, it wasn't that hard on his Gringotts account, either. "And I'm doing great! Training hard, you know. Yourself?"
"Thanks! It's actually the same one I wore to the Boofire a few terms back, remember?" May as well be honest about it, right? "And yours is pretty cool as well!" Quote:

"How are you? What have you been up to? How's quidditch?" She laughed a bit, "Guess I shouldn't wait until I see you to find all this out, maybe I should start sending on owl once in awhile." Then he was being hugged from behind. He had expected this. Many of his former players were still here. Plus they're in Hufflepuff, so they hug. "I've been good, Min! Training hard, just like usual. You still on the team?" She had mentioned something about being the announcer way back wehn, but he didn't know if she had followed through with that. "Yeah, definitely! I'd love to hear from you!"

"Where have you been?!" That was the greeting Keefer got. And it wasn't until now that Treyen noticed the costume and chuckled, "I remember that," he did such a wonderful job in their play, too.
He'd missed this, you know. "Where have I been? Where have YOU been, man?" Keefer said, thumping his favorite Chaser-Keeper-Seeker on the back. Looking down, he chuckled. "Yeah, I couldn't resist. Still fits, so why not?" Many of his compatriots couldn't say that about clothes they'd worn in school. "I'm just saying I'm one of the three musketeers." Because that was the only thing that fit, really. Eyeing Treyen, he said, "And who are YOU supposed to be, exactly?"
