There wasn't enough money in the world to bribe Nico into doing something like this. No, not at all. In fact the main reason he'd agreed to do it at all was because old habits died hard and sitting with his good friend and workmate, Anna GREINGOTH (he liked to intentionally drop the Newell part), in clear view of Cale Newell who'd be able to see any incidental winks quite clearly, was always amusing.

Some things never changed.

He had a good view of where Evee was too and he shot her a quick smirk.

Okay, so a lot of things hadn't changed.

Already, he could see the booth was incredibly busy, Anna had a crowd around her in the short time that Nico had slipped away to get some food for his son. Overhearing a redheaded Gryffindor-by-the-robes girl say something about registering potions, he clarified in a slightly amused sort of voice, "Only potions which are intended for sale or distribution need be registered with the British Ministry, particularly if you have residency in another country, or several other countries... loopholes you understand."

Yes. Loopholes. They were in everything and benefitted Nicholai perfectly. He sat down and gave Anna an apologetic look over the head of the two and a bit year old wriggling around under his arm.

"Babysitter cancelled." He murmured, leaning over to Anna a bit, "Sorry Kitten." And obviously since Kayla was here too, there wasn't much choice short notice.

"Loopholes!" The little blond boy agreed. Almost the spitting image of Celandine, the school's head girl, his big dark eyes were taking everything in eagerly even as he went back to nomming on a cauldron cake. He waved over at his mummy and then started waving at everyone while wriggling and eating and dropping crumbs on his father.

Multitasker, this one.

Nico's head turned slightly and he raised one eyebrow. What was this? Celandine... in detention? He didn't quite catch the rest of whatever that little Ravenclaw was chattering on about, and decided it was probably best not to know.
