"Well, in that case it is a good thing, you're not me," Airi said, shaking her head with amusement at Vince's dismissal of her love of learning and helping others to learn. Naturally Vince, (who's greatest aspiration seemed to be snogging a different girl every day) wouldn't understand her ambition or her natural love of all things academic.

Ease filled the young girl at Vianna's words, though she still felt a tiny bit of guilt and vowed to herself that she would make up for being so unthinking. Taking a deep sip from her tea and she sighed at its perfection. Bless those little House-elves and their magical food skills, she wouldn't have been able to function without them.

"Oh I don't know, I might go into Hogsmeade for a bit, or catch up on some reading, something relaxing," Airi thoughtfully said, she had been hoping to spend some time with Vianna, but that plan was obviously no longer viable. Maybe she'd see if her brothers were home and pop off to visit with them.

"What about you, Vince? Airi said, turning to address the second eldest Vincenzi.


"You sound so shocked, what? You didn't think I would actually pull it together?" Ned cheekily said, tucking the tickets safely back into his pocket along with his wand. He had the tickets, his wand, the portkey coordinates, and of course, breath mints (couldn't song the woman of his dreams with bad breath).

Ned couldn't believe it, but as he looked himself over in the mirror for the 200th time that day he felt, well he felt nervous. Ned Hall hadn't been nervous about a girl since he was thirteen. It was actually kind of nice to feel excited and anxious about something again, because it meant he was feeling something, and lately he'd been feeling emotionally numb towards every woman, except for Vianna Vincenzi.

The #charmingsnake followed the #cunningsnake out of their dorm with a large, completely genuine and nearly innocent smile. Of course, many questioning looks and stares came their way as the boys passed through the common room, it wasn't just the phenomenon of Ned being awake and dressed so early in the day that grabbed the attention of their housemates, it was also the fact that they were both dressed up as if they were heading out on dates. A fact that to the other suspicious snakes, seemed to reinforce the idea that the boys were secretly in love and were heading off for a romantic day together.
