The Three Broomsticks is the most well-known pub in the small village, which is why it is often rather crowded with students and adults alike. The outside of the building is a good preview of what the inside may look like with the same steep roof as the surrounding buildings with a sign featuring the legendary three broomsticks, all fixed around a lantern to light the patrons' way. It certainly looks better kept than the Hog's Head down the street.
Once you enter the pub, the warmth of the large stone fireplace great you as you place hats and coats by the door. Directly in front of you there are tables and booths lining the majority of the small hall with oil lamps placed on each one. On winter days it is usually hard to find a place beside the large fire grate; however, if you're early enough, you can bet your galleons that you'll be nice and toasty by the fire. To the left is the bar where the bartender waits to take your order.

You know what was sad? The Three Broomsticks not having any of the crunchy, cheesy junk food that was Cheese Puffs. Yes, the oldest Paton child was obsessed with those. On the bright side, she’d be bugging her dad to get her some soon. After all, he ventured out so often to London for work; the man could easily run an errand for her.
As it was, the seventh year Slytherin ordered herself a mac and cheese as well as a Butterbeer then settled herself at one of the booths. She had strategically chosen one so that she’d be able to watch the door and all who ventured in and out of the place. Most importantly, she’d be able to spot Franklin and Byrony Paton whenever they decided to show their faces. At least her family was in one central place, and if her mum continued to teach at Hogwarts, then Hogsmeade would be Nova’s home when she graduated next year.

Kennedy usually liked to be in Hogsmeade with his twin, Ben, but he had gotten food sick, to where, here he was by his lonesome self. That wasn't so bad, he could get a butterbeer, maybe see some of his other friends and hang out or just get some sweets and call it a day. O.W.L studies took his usual free time, anyway.
After getting his drink and a grilled turkey sandwich, he searched around for a seat. Of course... everywhere was packed quickly. But he did see someone.. familiar or well, of a sort. She did give him a hair wash so to speak. Would he risk another chance of a needed shower? Pfft, of course. It was Kennedy after all.
"Hellooo, I come in peace.. this time," Kennedy smiled as he eyes her food. Looked good, just like his.

While Marilyn didn't want to impose upon the students getting some fresh air and socializing in the wizarding village, she also wasn't born yesterday. The Charms Professor figured what better time to get to know some of her colleagues better, whilst simultaneously keeping an eye for unruly students? She was grateful that Celeste seemed willing to meet her here.
Settling into a booth in the corner of the three broomsticks, she propped the menu up to peruse while she awaited the arrival of her peer.

While she had certainly been back to Hogsmeade since her own graduation, given she lived up in Scotland year-round afterwards, being there surrounded by her students certainly brought back memories for Celeste. Fun times with Jess while they both exasperated Nate who was being a gentleman and escort. Dragging Damien on a proper date the year they were together at Hogwarts. Ah the memories that thankfully were mostly good.
Pushing through the door of the Three Broomsticks to meet up with her colleague, the astronomy professor looked around and took in her surroundings. Not much had changed, other than perhaps the clothing trends of the students escaping their school uniforms. Celeste spotted Marilyn in one of the booths in a corner and made her way over, carefully dodging a waitress with a tray of food. “All behaving so far,” she mused as she took a seat of her own.

They would probably both agree though that visiting someplace with your kids was different from visiting with colleagues. Her mind drifted off to her boys and she wondered about their experiences in this pub. She wondered if she failed them by not inquiring? She always wanted to give them their space but perhaps that wasn't to their benefit?
Her thoughts were interrupted at Celeste's arrival, much to Marilyn's gratitude and she set the menu down and glanced around. "I should hope so. I think most probably know that this is a privilege that could be revoked at any time." Well the older ones at least. "At least nothing catastrophic. Firewhiskey drinker or something else?" She for one could use something strong.

Her dashing father and youngest sister were not who she saw.
Nova’s eyes fixated on Kennedy as though silently willing him not to come in her direction. Honestly, that boy seemed to not be able to leave her. Sadly for her, Kennedy approached her booth. Her gaze had not budged from his stupid face all this while. Hadn’t he gotten her silent message? Hadn’t that recent happening of her dumping liquid on his head not teach him anything?
Clearly not. He was glutton for punishment apparently.
“What do you want, Potter?” Nova’s eyes had narrowed dangerously, an indication that he’d better choose his next words carefully.

“Aye…especially for the younger ones.” For when she was in school…Gideon’s too if she remembered correctly from giving her permission, it had still been a limited treat for the older students to visit. “And nah mysterious time witch lurking around.” That had been a story she remembered from the time of her kids…the proof being Gideon’s unfortunate loss of his wand to the woman. She hadn’t learned of such troubles lately.
“Firewhiskey is fine…” She could drink…in moderation…she wasn’t a complete embarrassment to her Scottish blood. The woman had spotted some older students around the place but for the most part all was well.

"Yes it's probably those I'm most concerned about." The colour flushed from her cheeks at Celeste's next words. Time thief witch. Marilyn hadn't thought about that woman in decades and she wondered what had become of her. She vaguely recalled the tabloids capturing her, but did she escape? Was she killed? The woman was centuries old after all. "Thank Merlin. We don't need more time thieves. So what do you recall of her capture?" But as she asked the question, another memory came to mind. The Gryffindor Prefect that year. Gert. "Wait. Were you.... are you related to Gideon Gert?" She swallowed, wondering why it had taken her so long to put it together.
"Two firewhiskeys and some garlic bread to share then. I'll go place the order unless you wanted something else?" She gave the astronomy professor a questioning look as she rose from her seat.

Well she remembered that a few of her son’s friends and classmates had had to testify only for her to escape. However, before Celeste could answer, something had clicked with her colleague. Are you related to Gideon Gert? Had Marilyn known him in school? Was that the reason the mention of the witch had caused the reaction from her companion. The older woman wasn’t the greatest in pegging ages. The only reason she knew Escalante was the same age was because the two young men had been student leaders together.
“Aye…he’s my son,” she confirmed with a nod to the affirmative before shaking her head as Marilyn got up to take care of their order. “Nah…that’s perfect.” Drinks and a light nosh. And perhaps reminiscing now that the connection had been made. Sort of.

It was also quite a long time ago, considering both her sons had since graduated albeit quite recently. Also having grown kids and an unexpected grandchild of her own probably makes her seem older too. But despite being the stereotypical friendly Hufflepuff, she hadn't really kept too much contact with her graduating class. That and both Escalante and Gert were probably too popular/cool for her muggle oldies music loving pureblood self. They were student leaders. She was a nobody. And she tried to keep herself a nobody, given her older cousin's popularity who had graduated/been head boy just two years before her arrival to Hogwarts.
After placing the order, she returned to the seat. "So ... your son. I think... we graduated together?" But she wasn't counting on him remembering her. For one, she wasn't Marilyn Sayse back then and two, she kept that low-profile.

Or else…
Kennedy didn't know what drove him to go to Nova. Well, there were some things but nothing outside the superficial means. So he may have said certain things to get a bit of the cold shoulder and shower in return. But here he was, attempting to make peace.... right?
"A charming wizard like me can't say hello?" Kennedy asked. Where did this come from? No one in his immediately family was this bold.. Or at least admitted to it. "I'm kidding, but I would like to sit with you and maybe make up for our last... situation," Would she say yes? Did he have to beg? He probably would have to beg.

Celeste turned her attention briefly to people watching as she was momentarily left alone by her companion. The students around seemed to be all in order, both inside and through the windows that lined the streets. “Really?” she asked almost rhetorically when it was Marilyn’s turn to mention the possibility upon her return to the table. “A small world it seems,” she remarked with a nod.
“Though I doubt he’d remember…nothing to do with ye...just he having done his best to block out most of his school memories,” she added with a sigh and a shake of the head. A testimony to him sharing his father’s stubbornness and her passion…cutting off seven years of memories for one broken heart. Albeit to one that he had planned to propose to after they had graduated. Now those were dark days while he was in university, the woman thankful he had eventually found his calling and a happier life though alas alone.

Nova too didn't know why it was that Kennedy could not leave her alone. He was persistent, she’d give him that much. Too bad for him that his persistence mostly annoyed her; at other times she was highly entertained. Hmm. The aspiring Auror could use some entertainment. Perhaps she’d allow Kennedy the opportunity to be in her delightful company.
The Slytherin shot the Gryffindor an expression of haughty derision. “Charming? You? Puh-lease, Potter. Don’t flatter yourself.” Well have yourself a merry little surprise, Kennedy. Nova was about to make your day. “Fine.” She motioned to the seat opposite of her. “If you’re gluten for punishment, be my guest.”
