She wanted to see it, but she also knew that sometimes the pictures had to process. Super smart. "Okay," she liked the idea of signing the photo. It would be kind of like an autograph. "Can you make a copy for me later? With magic?" She knew he couldn't now because he wasn't of age. It was a silly rule if you asked Kizzy.

Speaking of silly. Suddenly she realized how silly she looked standing on the table, towering over Cooper (who had since taken a seat). So Kizzy sat too. Only she sat on the table because she still had some unfinished business to attend to. Speaking of which, "I wasn't dancing, Cooper!" She laughed, trying to roll her eyes (but ending up just looking at the sky for an extended period of time insead). She was about to explain further, but she paused to watch him write. Again with the dancing!! Kiz deadpanned in a display of drama! But then eagerly made a grab for a few of the sharpies. Moving to rest her elbows on the table, folding her legs underneath her body, and sending her bum into the air, she began decorating the white frame with little ice cream cones and colorful sprinkles.

"I was so not dancing. I was trying to open the umbrella." She was a much better dancer than that. Hopefully Cooper knew. "But it's stuck." She popped her head up to look at him. That was his cue to open it, please?

Was the symbol on any of the other umbrellas? Perhaps. There was only one way to find out.

Yes. Thank you. He too found himself to be rather humorous but no one laughed at his jokes quite like Kizzy did - it was part of what made her his favorite but SHHHH no one tell the others. "Yeah, sure. Of course. I can get dad to do it later and even bring it to you when we all get to King's Cross." Which was coming up and, in case the change in tone wasn't obvious enough in its tonal shift, he was VERY excited about FINALLY getting to go to Hogwarts.

"If you say so," he teased as he finished HIS label of the photo and than capped the sharpie, allowing his cousin to take over for the rest of the decorations. "It makes for a more interesting caption this way though." He probably should discourage her from laying across the table like that, considering how improper it all was, but she had him easily distracted with her between the lines request to open the table's umbrella. "You don't think someone stuck it with a Sticking Charm, do you?" he asked as he pushed his chair back out again so he could stand. He wasn't willing to admit that that would make for a clever prank...but it would make for a clever prank.

Tilting his head a bit to the side, Cooper gave one of the poky ends a tug and found that it moved easily enough and even had a bit of a crunch to it. That didn't sound very ... sanitary. He gave another section a tug and found that it too moved, so maybe he could actually get it open. "You gotta scooch over a bit, Kiz," he informed her as he leaned over the table a bit and shook the stand a bit before his thumb grazed over the switch and pushed it in while yanking up the pole with his other hand. The crunching noise was there again, almost like he might rip the fabric of the umbrella, but with some more jostling and grunting on his end the umbrella sprung open.

"Tad ----- ah?"

What was THAT doing there?
