If sitting inside just isn't your thing, Floreans offers you an alternative option to wandering the streets of Diagon with your tasty confection. Outside of the shop doors, in a small, well-kept courtyard out of the way of the hustle and bustle of the rest of Diagon Alley, there can be found small, colourful tables with a handful of equally colourful chairs scattered about. While our ice cream is charmed to be slow-melting, our customers, we assume, are not, and thus each table is equipped with an umbrella that can be opened or closed at your discretion. These tables, like the ones inside, can be pushed together or pulled apart to accommodate any size party, but please do take care to think of others who might be sitting around you!
A napkin dispenser can be found at every table, along with a small wooden stand bearing spare plastic spoons and a bunch of small, prepackaged wet-wipes to help clean up those sticky hands.
And please don't try to remove any of the tables or chairs from the courtyard. The seating, while not fixed down, is charmed to be unable to leave the small space. So don't get any ideas! Just sit back, relax, and enjoy your ice cream.
~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ It be like that sometimes.

BEAM. He was going to have to try harder to fool her.
More laughter followed the next comment. "Well, I didn't think to. Besides I didn't know which one of you would propose... though I had a feeling it would probably be you." That didn't really matter so much, however; the important thing was that it was happening. She gave her best friend a BIG HUG. "Yes, that sounds great! Now get me my ice cream." Kidding! Only kidding. "I had better be your best girl." Haha. Honestly Lux would have been okay if he had picked someone else to be, but she was very happy and honored that he wanted HER.
Oh looky! He made the girl bestie laugh like crazy! Wasn't he just that awesome? But gosh, wasn't Lux always so confident like Bitty? "Maaaybe. But they'll be solely for me, not you.'' Adi wiggled his brows. "I think we need a mediator... someone who knows that I'm right, don't you think?''
That comment earned Lux a poke in the arm. "You could have gotten treated to a lot of ice cream way sooner.'' He laughed. Adi had actually kept the proposal for this year because he thought it would be perfect. On the day of Benny's birthday and almost at the start of their final year at University. Plus maybe it would keep others from flirting with Benny when they saw a ring on his finger
"Yep, I just knew I had to be the one to propose.'' He grinned as he gave Lux one of his squishy hugs. "Lots of ice cream coming up for the best girl!'' Adi didn't even need to ask what flavour she wanted. He just went off to get it.
A path is not simply for walking, its purpose lies in moving forward and improving oneself.

However she had dialed it back a great deal and even cut sweets out completely for months during her past animagus training. Today was just one of those 'I'm going to eat this and deal with the consequences later' type of days.
Taking another spoonful of her ice cream and swallowing she smiled. "I needed more parchment and ink for sending out owls. Gifts for my little siblings, food and treats for my pets. Getting a jump start at getting what I'll be needing for attending Uni soon." So it wasn't so much as needed stuff but more of things to get out of the way early on.
Glancing at Yoongi after a few more mouthfuls of ice cream she laughed softly. Ah, the typical brain freeze. You weren't eating your treat right if you didn't get one of those! "I do that all the time. You tell yourself to slow down but you can't." Luckily those little pains from the coldness of the ice cream didn't last all that long.
"Third year?! Already?" Hady laughed looking across the table at him. Where in the world had the time gone? "I'm doing amazing. I was head girl this past term and Frankie was head boy." Surely he remembered Franklin Paton? "I passed my NEWTs and I'll be attending Uni this fall (when the term begins?LOL)." Wow saying that out loud sounded so strange to her ears. Everything was going so quickly. A grin spread across her lips at the mention of Animagus training. "Finished. Highly nerve-wrecking and scary at times but successful and completed." She could show him if he liked.
Attending Uni....
Yoongi ate the last bit of the sugar free ice cream and with a quick wave of his wand, he vanished the plastic spoon and placed his wand back in his wrist holster. "Which University are you going to?" he asked. It would be amazing if she were to go to Edinburgh. He could show her around first day!
Yoongi laughed and nodded at her little outburst. Yes, third year. "Time flies doesn't it" he said and looked around him at his surroundings for a moment, not speaking but just looking. After a second or 5 , he looked back at the ex slytherin. "It feels like we met only last week, not three years ago" Merlin how had time flown by.
Head Girl. Was Hady actually telling him that like he, she had been a student leader as well? A huge, positive smile appeared on his face and he clapped his hands a few times to applaud her."Did they throw food at you as well?" or the Head Boy? Which he now heard had been "The boyfriend" he smirked and wiggled his eyebrows.
And to top that information of, she had also finished her Animagus training and Yoongi was inpressed again. "And?"he asked. "What animal can you transform in to? And can i see it now?" she was off age now right?
Okay, okay. Cornelius would not admit it, the hug was appreciated. A bro hug, that is. HE ALREADY MISSED HIS BRO.
"Thanks!" The ice cream cone was happily taken by the fourteen year old, whom didn't wait to lick some of it as he took a seat. He was always hungry. Chocolate was perfect. Anything with large amounts of sugar was.
Mid lick the Slytherin paused, his hand shooting up to cover his forehead. "Can you see it?!" his voice held a bit of panic. Terrible it would be if Dalia or Katerina were around and saw the MONSTER on his forehead. "They popped up one day and -- ugh. Puberty SUCKS." He huffed the way teenagers did -- exasperated, as if it was the end of the world. "Any tips on how to get rid of these?" he said, removing his hand and pointing at his face.
Spots needed to go FAST. BYE. ADIOS. SHOO. LATER TIL NEVER.
At least Cornelius did liked chocolate, so they didn't have to throw it away in case he didn't, which would have been a shame because it was ice cream, it was food, you don't throw away food. He gave a nod and finished his ice cream.
Hugo laughed at Cornelius' reaction. He had always had these type of reactions, well, over reactions would be a better way to describe them. It was funny tho. "Yeah, a bit" it didn't looked that bad but then again, the hair was covering it. Part of it at least. He remembered his puberty days. Oh those days. His voice became deeper and sexier, he became taller which was very well appreciated and also got some spots, but not that much to be honest. "But you are taller now and your voice is changing. Girls like that" they do. And also, Hugo remembered that Corn liked someone, right? A certain Hufflepuff girl.
"You can try muggle stuff, like spot cream. They work" or at least it said so "Or some potion, I guess. I think my sister have some of it" beauty potions and stuff like that. "But don't worry, they'll be gone. Stay away from dairy products tho" he had learned that dairy would give more spots than necessary. "So, what you've been up to?"
She shrugged, not answering his question because it seemed quite rhetorical. She was here, that was answer enough. Aslan ordered a child's size come of plain chocolate ice cream and paid as the boy introduced himself just as quickly as he'd spoken to her before. "Aslan." She took a lick, and then another before reaching out for a napkin least the ice cream drip down her fingers. "I think you go to Hogwarts too, don't you? I've seen you before." Unless she was mistaken, but unfortunately for the brunette she was not often wrong.
Colt rolled his eyes playfully. "Your one of those people who only gets the plain flavors. Be original and get like cookie dough or mint chocolate chip.." He didn't know where those flavors came from but those were his favorites. He was giving her a hard time but she did a bit. Soo all is fair. When he finally knew her name, it sort of clicked in his brain. "Now Aslan sounds familiar.." he muttered. "Yeah yeah we have seen each other before in classes.." Without a doubt. Maybe she dated a guy he knew. He didn't know. "I probably didn't pay much attention though because I might have been napping in the back of the class.." he admitted jokingly. Nahh he paid attention when he wanted to. "Which house are you in again?" He thought she might be a slytherin but he could be wrong.

Once she had swallowed the bit in her mouth she looked to the open air where his " brother" was standing, " Thanks.. That's very kind of you.. ", she smiled. She really didn't have a problem with playing along. In fact she rather appreciated his over active imagination. Not many kids their age would still show theirs so it was ret included at times...
Randa sat in the now empty chair opposite him and was happy to answer his questions and talk.. She was always up for making new friends and whatnot.. She was a hufflepuff afterall and she did get along with almost everyone she came into contact with." Yeah... I was just out for a walk and decided to have a treat... I'm Miranda by the way... Miranda Blaze..", She was quite proud of her name and family.. Even though the heathen child Eddy would be joining her at Hogwarts this term.." Yeah... I think I saw you in class too.. Though I'm sorry I can't seem to remember your name...",. Miranda settled and leaned back in her seat as she scooped tiny bits of sweetness into her mouth as she waited for his response and/or questions..
This girl was either really gullible or just having a good time. Kyle was actually having fun with this and wondered how long he could keep it up. "He says your welcome and he's headed to the quidditch shop." He gave a wave like he was saying goodbye before he took another big bite of ice cream. "My family is really into quidditch, is yours?" He actually wasn't all that into flying, but he knew others could be and at least some of his brothers seemed to like it.
Oh yes Miranda she was one of the smarter students. He glanced around wondering if anyone noticed he was sitting with a smart girl. "I'm Kyle. I'm in Gryffindor." He wasn't really social in classes so maybe she knew that but maybe she didn't. "Are you enjoying your summer?" He was even though he was left to fend for himself at the moment.
Taking another big bite of ice cream he grabbed his forehead. "Ice cream headache." Ouch..

Hadleigh watched Yoongi simple vanish his spoon and things a small smile on her face. It was so nice being of age and bring able to do magic whenever she liked. Her ice cream eating appeared to be slower today but that was completely alright with her given the very welcoming company she had. "The Wizarding University in London. Where Lux, Adi and Benny are." That's usually how she explained it whenever asked. Where her 'siblings' were.
"It sure does! I remember when you were in Hogwarts with me and now I'm not even there anymore." Hady was stuck with a brief moment of sadness at some of the memories but it all was quickly pushed aside. There was no need to be upset about moving forward as everyone did. "I know the feeling. I've been feeling that way all year long."
Hady smiled laughing softly at the clapping. Of course Yoongi would be proud of her for having become Head Girl. "No but we did have a rather eventful term." A poltergeist wedding and a child poltergeist. Stranger things have happened, yes but that in itself was very memorable. The eyebrow wiggling didn't go unnoticed and once again she found herself laughing. "Yes the boyfriend." The one she was very proud of.
Some might have thought that her training and becoming an animagus hadn't taken very long at all when really it had taken years. Everything had to be perfectly. Just one tiny mistake and the entire thing was messed up. Both Frankie and herself had been very lucky with it all. "My form is that of a Red Panda." It hadn't at all been what she had expected but now she absolutely loved it and couldn't imagine being anything else. "Sure, I can show you now if you like." Changing into her animal form was something she loved to do.

Henry closed his magazine and pushed it off to the side since he now had company and would rather talk than read anyway. “Summer’s been great so far,” he turned to Kat with a grin. “My family went to Rhodes for a few days for a little vacation. Benton got to come too. And I’ve been super busy with Quidditch too. You’re going to come to a game, right?” He really liked it when friends came to watch. It made playing even better.
“Nice to meet you, too, JP.” Henry gave the younger boy a smile and reached for his extended hand to shake it. Oh, first year? The fifteen year old might have guessed it, but one could never be too sure and he didn’t like to assume. He also wondered what JP might be short for. “Yep, this is a great place for a break. Going to get some ice cream? It’s the best here.” Henry grinned again before taking another bite of his chocolate frog ice cream. The other boy probably knew that anyway. Unless he was muggleborn or just moved here, Henry would guess that he had probably already visited Florian’s at some point in his life.
J.P. Shook the boys hand and sat down. "I hear the Ice Cream is good. I've had it before I think. So, what's it like? My dad has told me so many stories about it. He was a Gryffindor. My mother was a Ravenclaw." J.P. was excited to hear about where he'd spend so much of his time. This boy looked really nice. It would be cool to have an older person as a friend in the big school.
J.P. felt relief that both of the older students were accepting him even though he was young. He looked toward the girl. "Yes, it stands for Jean Paul actually. It was my grandfather's name. Quite the legacy to live up to. How about you? What's your name? I also asked what house he was in" JP looking over and gesturing to the boy, realizing that he hadn't gotten his name. "What was your name again? Sorry, you must have said it but I must've forgotten." He blushed a little feeling embarrassed for not remembering the boys name.

Taking another big bite of ice cream he grabbed his forehead. "Ice cream headache." Ouch..
Miranda found this kid entertaining and she saw no harm in going along with his rouse... " Ah... fine sport, quidditch.. I like watching well enough, but sadly never really played. Well.. Except for the odd pick up game every now again again...". She shook her head at his question.. The truth was sure her family liked to watch but they weren't much into playing .." We're not a very sporty bunch.. My family and I.. We prefer to spectate.. ", she added with a warm smile. she was very much enjoying her ice cream when he finally told her his name... for a long moment she went through her mental list of names to see if it happened to ring a bell... Nope.. It hadn't but no worries.. that just meant she just met a new friend.. And that was what she was all about... At least while school wasn't in session.
" Kyle... Well.. It's nice to meet you.. I have a couple friends in Gryffindor.. But I do remember seeing you in a few classes ."She had.. though she had never known his name before, " Do you like quidditch??", she asked ... And then he grabbed his forehead.. Oooohh.. she hated when that happened.. she was no stranger to the ice cream headache.. In fact she was fairly certain that anyone that had ever eaten ice cream had at one point or another had experienced the accursed affliction. She merely answered with an all knowing nod of her head.
At least Cornelius did liked chocolate, so they didn't have to throw it away in case he didn't, which would have been a shame because it was ice cream, it was food, you don't throw away food. He gave a nod and finished his ice cream.
Hugo laughed at Cornelius' reaction. He had always had these type of reactions, well, over reactions would be a better way to describe them. It was funny tho.

"But don't worry, they'll be gone. Stay away from dairy products tho" he had learned that dairy would give more spots than necessary. "So, what you've been up to?"
The boy ate his ice cream, hand still over his forehead. His stomach sunk. If Hugo was telling him the red spot showed then it must be true. The boy held on to the former Slytherin's word more than he demonstrated. Wasn't ashamed of it, though. Hugo was awesome. There was no questioning it.
"As long as I keep it covered, I suppose. My dad made me have a haircut." With his fingers he combed his curls over the pimple, hoping his dark locks would dazzle and divert attention from acne. A smirk stretched the boy's lips. Girls like that, eh? "They do, don't they?"
Funny that Hugo brought that up because that's exactly what the boy wanted to discuss.
"My sisters bathed me in beauty stuff and I felt like a girl. I like girls, I don't want to feel like one." Thank you very much. "Mum dabbed potion on it but I want it gone now." It was a hard life, you know? For a Cornelius Orion Baltazar. Especially when his family frequented the main pages of magazines and tabloids. Hugo says to stay away from dairy products because it'll make acne worst? Cornelius was already planning to get rid of dairy foods.
Right after devouring this ice cream, which didn't take long. The growing boy ate it up in moments. Besides, they had reached a topic of interest.
"Quidditch, family and girls." Green eyes looked up with Hugo. "I need girl help." There it was. Boom.

The temptation for lots of ice cream was real, but Lux honestly hadn't known when a proposal would have been planned; for one thing she was busy with both school and planning HER wedding. There was not a lot of time to spare for other things though she DID try to fit in her friends as much as possible. "Well, you could have told me about your plans sooner." SO THERE! She had him beat again and deserved a third Chocolate Frog. Something that she was about to point out to him when he kept talking about the proposal. It could wait for a moment. "You need to tell me all about your plan when you come back with the ice cream."
Like a good best friend he already knew what flavour to get her.

She was a quidditch person, well that was an easy guess being a witch and all. There weren't many that weren't a fan. Plus it was a good conversation starter. Thanks to his brother he learned that little trick early. "Oh yeah I don't play much. I watch my brothers when they have their fun, but never really cared to be on the broom." He went up a few times, but not his thing. "I think I'd fit in with your family very well." He sometimes didn't feel like he did his own.
"It's nice to officially meet you too." He couldn't say meet since he had seen her in class, but he finally got to say her name and smile directly at her for once. "Yeah? Which Gryffindors I might know them." Unless they were in his year he probably didn't though. He didn't really take the time to get to know students like he should.

Miranda contiued eating her ice cream spoon by spoon saving her sugarcone for last.. It being her favourite part of getting the frozen treat in the first place.." You as well, Kyle.", she smiled between bites.. She thought for a few minutes trying to remember the names of the lions that she knew... Hmmmm.. Truth be told she was a I recognise your face , but not your name kinda girl... but she dd remember a few names at any rate... For one her Best friends "friend" was a Gryffindor and Jarrod's little girlfriend.. They were both lions.. Well, mainly because they were family she supposed." Well, I know Anthony and Analyse Coeur... And a few others.. I'm horrible with names though.. ", she added with a shrug. Though if you named a few off I'd probably be able to recognise knowing the name.."

Snort.
Did Lux really think that he was going to ask Bay? Gosh, he couldn't even ask Benny because his boyfriend's favourite colour was blue too Thankfully Lux didn't remember THAT! Hopefully she would continue to forget about that bit of information "We'll ask Hades. She'll be sure to agree it's orange.'' Mhmm!
....................
Adi came bounding back, hands clutching their ice cream in bowls. "Four scoops for Lux!'' He plopped back down. "You're welcome.'' Mmm chocolate ice cream! "Sorry, I just wanted to plan everything first. At least you're the first person who knows. I haven't even told Hades as yet.'' Nor his parents. Well, they'd know soon enough. The guy spooned some of the treat into his mouth then bit into it. He liked the way the coldness felt against his teeth just like Ali does.
"We're going to go out to dinner then I was thinking about playing him a few songs on my piano. I want it to be special, you know. Then comes the whole proposing part.'' Simple and straightforward but something that he and Benny will remember forever.
Théo was in heaven. He had his favorite ice cream and nothing could bring down his mood. At least he hoped. He was sitting down swinging his legs and watching people walk by. He had a little time to himself before he had to go to his mom across the street. He cant stray too far away or she would get mad.
People watching was boring.
How did anyone enjoy this. Nothing was happening and all they did was walk to the place they were going to.
Well it could be worse. He could have no ice cream

Things had been rocky for the two but, being a Romalotti, Phillip knew exactly how to woo his girl. Whatever would Uncle Asher say if he didn't? Dishonour on the entire family? His Italian heritage? Psh, he couldn't risk that.
So, carrying two bowls of ice cream, Phillip wandered out towards the courtyard in tow with one of his favourite Gryffindors. The ice cream at Floreans probably wasn't as great as the gelato he'd had in Italy last year but the setting sure did make up for it. Look at the umbrellas! There was no way the girl could be upset after this.
And speaking of, he turned towards her and said, "After you, babe." As in, pick a seat. His hands were a little full right now.

Her summer wouldn't be completed without having a date with her lovely boyfriend. Things were a little bit difficult between both of them before, but Ava just couldn't stay mad at Phillip forever. It wasn't his fault and he'd also apologized and being honest at her. Let's just forget about that.
Okay, maybe because she was just too love with him.
So here they were now, at the Florean's having ice cream together. This ice cream parlor was very crowded on summer because hello.... Summer without ice cream was just like herself without Phillip pancakes without syrup... There's something missing. But fortunately they could get a seat at the courtyard and their favorite ice cream. Of course that her boyfriend would order her favorite one; strawberry cheesecake! "Thanks, honey." The Gryffindor sneaked a kiss on his cheek before she took a seat. Awwww... How she loved when he called her 'babe'!

Henry closed his magazine and pushed it off to the side since he now had company and would rather talk than read anyway. “Summer’s been great so far,” he turned to Kat with a grin. “My family went to Rhodes for a few days for a little vacation. Benton got to come too. And I’ve been super busy with Quidditch too. You’re going to come to a game, right?” He really liked it when friends came to watch. It made playing even better.
“Nice to meet you, too, JP.” Henry gave the younger boy a smile and reached for his extended hand to shake it. Oh, first year? The fifteen year old might have guessed it, but one could never be too sure and he didn’t like to assume. He also wondered what JP might be short for. “Yep, this is a great place for a break. Going to get some ice cream? It’s the best here.” Henry grinned again before taking another bite of his chocolate frog ice cream. The other boy probably knew that anyway. Unless he was muggleborn or just moved here, Henry would guess that he had probably already visited Florian’s at some point in his life.

My mother was a Ravenclaw." J.P. was excited to hear about where he'd spend so much of his time. This boy looked really nice. It would be cool to have an older person as a friend in the big school.
J.P. felt relief that both of the older students were accepting him even though he was young. He looked toward the girl. "Yes, it stands for Jean Paul actually. It was my grandfather's name. Quite the legacy to live up to. How about you? What's your name? I also asked what house he was in" JP looking over and gesturing to the boy, realizing that he hadn't gotten his name. "What was your name again? Sorry, you must have said it but I must've forgotten." He blushed a little feeling embarrassed for not remembering the boys name.
It was so nice to come to Diagon alley get some ice cream and run into a friend from school. Especially when she was getting ready to head to Italy. The fourth year smiled hearing Henry's reply to how his summer was going. "That sounds fun. My family will be heading to Italy." Yes it was the same place every year, every Christmas. But it was almost like a second home to her. "Of course, I wouldn't miss it." She had been planning all summer to go to a match.
Jean Paul? Did that mean he was french? Not that she could tell just by his name. "I'm Katerina, Kat." She said with a small smile. She didn't mind if people wanted to call her Katerina it was fine either way. She took a few more bites of her ice cream. "Yes the ice cream is the best." Not as good as gelato but it was the best that was here.

Well, I know Anthony and Analyse Coeur... And a few others.. I'm horrible with names though.. ", she added with a shrug. Though if you named a few off I'd probably be able to recognise knowing the name.."
He sat there watching the girl. Was she trying to think of something to say or make up some names? He would make up names to make himself look really popular. Yeah that would so work, he was going to have to try it. Not today though he already made up brothers, which was weird since he had so many.
"Oh yeah? Cool." He ate more of his ice cream. He had no clue who those people were or if they truly were in his house. He had never met an Anthony. The other name kind of sounded familiar."[/B] Of course she wanted name, what names did he have? "There is Griffin, Olivia, Charlotte, Oliver." That was all the popular kids right? Made him look more popular.

Henry looked at JP curiously. "What is what like? Hogwarts? Oh, Hogwarts is great. I like it there. I bet you will too," he added with a grin. "I'm in Hufflepuff there, actually Kat and I are both Hufflepuffs." It was a great house to be in. But all the houses were great according to Henry. He had friends in all of the houses.
"I think you're the first Jean Paul I've ever met. But I'll call you JP if you'd rather." Oh, he forgot his name already? Henry chuckled a bit. "That's okay, I'm Henry." Sometimes it was hard to remember a bunch of new names at first.
He turned to Kat again as he finished up his ice cream and she mentioned about going to Italy. "Oh, I should have guessed," he grinned. "I know you go there every year. I bet it's like a second home by now." He kind of wished his family had a regular place to vacation, but he was just glad they got to go to such a cool place this year. "Great! I'll look for you in the stands. Make sure to wear my jersey and cheer really loud," he added with a wink. He was joking of course, but he wouldn't be opposed if that was what she wanted to do.

Miranda nodded at the names that Kyle rattled off... She did know OF these people, though they didn't really travel within the same social circles really." Mhmm.. I've heard of them... but to be honest most of my friends are badgers like me..", she said as she scooped the last bit of her frosty sweet out of her dish... Hence leaving her most favourite part for last.. the sugay sweet sugar cone she had had put into her dish when she ordered it. " But I do have a few friends that are from different houses.. So... Kyle... what do you like to do for fun?".. It was a good honest question, right?.. Not too nosey... Or was it?.. She was trying to make a new friend and really? What better way was there to get to know a person?... And he would soon find out just how inquistitive a girl she could be...

Hopefully she would continue to forget about that bit of information "We'll ask Hades. She'll be sure to agree it's orange.'' Mhmm!
....................
Adi came bounding back, hands clutching their ice cream in bowls. "Four scoops for Lux!'' He plopped back down. "You're welcome.'' Mmm chocolate ice cream! "Sorry, I just wanted to plan everything first. At least you're the first person who knows. I haven't even told Hades as yet.'' Nor his parents. Well, they'd know soon enough. The guy spooned some of the treat into his mouth then bit into it. He liked the way the coldness felt against his teeth just like Ali does.
"We're going to go out to dinner then I was thinking about playing him a few songs on my piano. I want it to be special, you know. Then comes the whole proposing part.'' Simple and straightforward but something that he and Benny will remember forever.
Pfft. Of COURSE Adi was going to bring Hady in on this, expecting her to go with his choice in colour. All that got from Lux was an amused eyeroll because she knew that there was no way it would actually happen. It would be better if Adi just admitted defeat and that blue was CLEARLY the superior colour. There WAS a reason why the sky was blue and not orange!
Her eyes widened, and she eagerly accepted the ice cream that he offered to her. "Thank you!" It was exactly what she had wanted down to the number of scoops. Lux was very pleased, and not just because she now had ice cream. As she started eating, she listened to her friend explain things further. "Well, that is understandable. I am happy that I am the first person you thought to tell." She felt all special inside. Hehe. Wasn't her best friend just wonderful? "Your idea sounds so romantic! Do you already have the songs picked out?" If not, she was totally willing to help him out! "Do you already have a ring?"
Sooooo many questions but she wasn't going to overwhelm him with them all at once.
Simon chuckled, enjoying all of her questions. "Oh no, no, I don't mind all the questions, Emmy," he said with a kind grin. Where to begin to answer all of those questions? He paused momentarily. "I have been well. I'm still solving cases with Ethan Mordaunt but that's more of a side job recently thanks to studies. About a month ago, I graduated from a Wizarding University in France and will be teaching at Beauxbatons as an Assistant Professor for Ancient Runes. I imagine I'll also be helping out some other Professors while I'm there. It's more so an experience to get my feet wet with it. I'm very excited." He couldn't wait to start working. Beauxbatons would certainly be a unique opportunity and, hopefully, it could lead him to greater ones. What else had he been up to? Oh right. Love life. "I've seen a couple people here and there but nothing has really worked out. And my sister is off to Hogwarts this September so I'm over here getting her set up." He was being a good brother as always. Their other brother, Marcus, was probably off galavanting with some new girl and their father didn't understand the magical world so it was up to Simon to help steer Olivia in the right direction.
It was his turn to listen now to her answer his question. Wow. He was utterly... speechless. He hadn't expected Kace and Emmy to break up. And they separated when Emmy was pregnant. "Merlin, Emmy...." He didn't know what to say. That sounded like a tough life. Was she happy though? he hoped so. "That's tough. I'm sorry to hear about you and Kace but a child-- that's brilliant. I'm sure you're a wonderful mother. Though it must be tough to raise a child all by yourself. What's your child's name?"
Simon was doing almost everything that she had wanted to do but she had a little person to take care of so Emmylou wasn't really able to do that. "Oh, wow, all of that sounds so amazing!" She nodded, she wasn't going to admit that she was just a little bit jealous of everything that he had been doing over the years. "That's really nice of you to do for your younger sister." Emmylou smiled at him.
"His name is Mason." Emmylou shrugged at his last comment. "I'm an alright mother." there were times when she thought she was good mother but that was before her own mother had kid knapped her and erased her memories about almost everyone. After that little event happened she felt like the worst mother ever for forgetting about her own son. "Yeah, it's tough, I guess I'm getting through though." she shrugged with a little frown.

Woot!
Adi knew just what his girl bestie would need because he knew her well and because he remembered what she had ordered from the last time. LOL! "No problem, Lux!'' Anything for her! "Don't let that swell your head, you know,'' he teased and spooned his first set of ice cream into his mouth. So cold and perfect!
Lux liked his idea! Awesome! "I just have two. I think that's enough.'' Just thinking about the proposal made him excited and a bit nervous. He was sure Benny would say yes but yeah, he still was feeling the nerves. "No ring but would you like to help me pick it out?'' He needed his bestie's help with this for sure!

Simon shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly at Emmy's statement that it was very nice of him to help his sister. He grinned. "I'd do anything for her." Seriously. She was his little bliss. And someone had to watch her because she had always been a little bit too reckless (by Simon's standards- which wasn't saying much). "It's good for her to be going off to Hogwarts... I'm just worried about her bringing home a guy." He chuckled.
Mason. What a great name. "Mason? A terrific name." Hearing Emmy say that being a mother was tough made Simon's heart go out to her. How he wished so much that he could just blurt out that he would help her but that could seem a little weird. Instead, he nodded. "Yes, I'm sure. If you need anything at all, please let me know. I'm here for you, you know?" he said, giving her a small smile.

Was Adi seriously teasing her about getting a swollen head? Lux couldn't help but laugh at her best friend. "If I did get one, it would match well with yours," she teased back while poking him in the side. It was fun to tease him because of his ego though it was something that she loved him for. At any rate he had bought her ice cream and it was important to be nice to him because otherwise that would be rude; that was something that she never liked being unless it was deserved.
Two was enough, yes. Lux agreed with that. At least Adi seemed to have a plan laid out. All that was missing was the ring, which she was going to help him with so that wasn't a major set back. "Of course I will help you pick the ring out! What songs are you going to play?" Obviously she needed to know that because... she was curious.
