"It isn't boring, it's actually very mentally stimulating, and besides, I hate sitting idle," Airlia said, slathering her toast with copious amounts of jam. She was quite used to Vince's offhand comments about her hobbies, didn't bother her in the slightest, actually it was kind of amusing.

Airi blinked, she'd never really thought about something like that. How long was a usual date?She supposed a few hours at the least. "I think it's based entirely on what you're doing on the date itself, there aren't guidelines or anything like that," Airi thoughtfully said, taking another bite of her toast and accidentally getting a bit of raspberry jam on her chin.

"Why do ask?" Airi asked, tilting her head in that curious way of hers, before the memory of the date came flooding back to her. "Oh! You and Neddy! That's tonight? I'm sorry Vi, I forgot all about it," Airi exclaimed, feeling rather ashamed at having forgotten. She knew Vianna couldn't be feeling very comfortable about the whole idea, and here she was being so worried about her own self that she hadn't even considered asking her friend about it.



Ned was too busy scowling at his shirt cuff to notice Victor's reaction to his offhand comment. If he had paid attention, even the slightest attention, he might have been able to guess that his oldest friend wasn't as okay with all this as he appeared.

Unsuspecting as he was, Ned had no qualms about telling Victor his plans, in fact he was rather keen to, as he was rather proud of the curriculum he had cooked up.
"Well, I hate Hogsmeade for dates, so I got a port key to Muggle London, we'll mess about there for a while, grab a bite and then.... " Ned said, puffing up his chest proudly as he pulled out two Quidditch tickets from his jacket pocket. "We'll be heading to the United Vs. Harpies match tonight," Ned said, beaming down at the little tickets. They had cost him quite a few galleons (not to mention pulling some favors from his father's friends), but it would be worth it to see the look on Vianna's face.

"What'd you think? She'll like that right?" Ned sincerely asked.
