Being only part time at uni allowed for Joseph to put in more hours at Paradise and with his small promotion from underage employee to a regular salary they were at least not living too horrendously paycheck to paycheck. He had never had much optimism to think about his life post Hogwarts, but he couldn't imagine it being any better than this. He, literally, had everything he needed and a whole lot of that came packaged oh-so-nicely in the curly haired son of a banshee who had captivated his heart strings and knew how to strum those effortlessly.
Stop. No. He was not sap so stop giving him that look right this instant.
The purchase of a bed frame felt like the end of an era. Just a mattress on the ground surrounding by the hodgepodge of other furniture-like items they had accumulated was giving quintessential struggling artist ... which was a much better take than poor university student slightly estranged with their family and actually estranged from family and looking for a path young adult vibe the pair actually was exhibiting. A part of him didn't want the bedframe but he knew how impractical that was and mattresses, good ones like they had saved up for, wanted you to empty your Gringotts vault out in order to own one.
His attention still very much on maintaining the Levitation Charm (if Fynley with all his quidditch muscles couldn't carry this box himself then extra focus was absolutely needed because Joseph's overcooked spaghetti muscles had no chance), Joseph could not spare glancing at his boyfriend but if he had there would have been a look of utter confusion plastered upon it. "...don't you already have them? Thought I lent them to you when you couldn't find your set the other day."
