"You know if you say 'don't mess with this' then that is exactly what they'll mess with." West pointed out. The girls were Slytherins after all. "Maybe better to say... no permanent damage or changes, yeah?" He eyed Ascanius and Theo, "And if they mess with your hair... or your faces, I'll fix you up myself, yeah?" They DID trust West with his wand didn't they?

But it did sound like they were all in.

He tried to gloss over that little bit of Derry-related tension between Jozsua and Ascanius for his own reasons, simply by not acknowledging it. Instead he loudly went back to eating crisps. Eat crisps everyone, Terry was providing a feast yeah? Much better than fighting.

"So we're all in. How do we wanna start? We need to think of something good and then maybe send them a message somehow telling them its on and challenging them. And setting any terms of course." Like nothing permanent. And perhaps that certain important body parts were off limits. He thought that one would be a good clause to have, not that it'd effect the girls.

"Any ideas?" Anyone? He had a few but they could wait until a little later.
