Connor Anders and Addison Donovan disliked each other from the moment they met each other on the Hogwarts Express during their very first ride to Hogwarts. Though they eventually dated and became married to each other, their path to that part of their lives was a rocky one.
Scenes 1 to 13 can be found here. These were completed prior to the cyber attack on Snitchseeker. Scene 14: Koen has managed to calm Reagan down after her breakdown and is about to ask her an important question regarding his wedding. Scene 15: It’s the summer of 2109. Charlie has officially moved to Britain and it’s moving day at his and his mother’s new house. Scene 16: December 2109 is upon them. Jude really wants to talk to Keighley about something very important, and is waiting anxiously for her to descend from the fifth year girls’ dorms. Scene 17: Night of the End of Term Feast 2110. Keighley and Jude talk about how sad Keighley really is that Jude is graduating and moving out over the summer and going off to university. Scene 18: There is something nagging at Connor concerning his older daughter and he was rather angsty to discuss it today. Scene 19: Summer of 2111: Keighley has only recently returned home after completing her sixth year at Hogwarts. Jude and Davet have a surprise for her, on her first evening at their apartment.

Davet not minding PDA certainly matched well with Jude because Jude liked receiving PDA as much as he liked giving it! As far as he was concerned, these actions matched the words and promises they said and made to each other. If Davet needed to know, the ENTIRE Anders family adored him! He wasn't just Jude’s love but also Reagan’s bestie. And clearly Keigh loved him too, not to mention enjoyed his company, otherwise she wouldn’t be here. As for Davet being pulled into insecurities when it came to Evan, Jude really did try to show his other half on a daily basis that he was the only one for him. So yes, Keighley was absolutely right: Davet had brought an immeasurable amount of happiness to his life.
With the plan agreed upon, Jude decided to Summon a brush to go along with the comb {which had been Summoned earlier with the hair accessories}. Brushing just made hair fluffier and thicker in his opinion. Now settled comfortably in the fort, he found Dav’s face again and replied with a grin of his own. “He pays attention to all the details, Keigh! I assure you, he won’t forget anything to do with your likes and dislikes.” The boyfriend was just the best in that department! “Someday, they’ll do another remake of the movie or play and you’ll be playing the role of the prince or Lumiere,’’ Jude remarked knowledgably. He figuratively sent the words out into the Universe because Dav certainly deserved to be cast in all the roles he dreams about. Even if Jude had to watch him kiss someone else; it was a good thing he was never the jealous type! He couldn’t help but chuckle at his sister’s seeming indignation about only now finding out about Davet and the play. “Clearly Dav has a lot to fill you in on his earlier acting days. The good thing is that you get to see his new movies and plays, Keigh! Imagine him and Rea having to act together again as a couple.” Jude sniggered heartily because his older sister and boyfriend acting as a couple and having to kiss was highly amusing to him still.
“Thanks, babe.” Jude lost no time in plucking a green marshmallow from the drink. “Lumiere and Cogsworth,’’ he added promptly in relation to the question. “Their relationship is hilarious and first class!” And Chip! How could he have forgotten about that little teacup? “He’s as cute as you are, did you know, Keigh?” With that, he hit the ‘play’ button and off the movie went!

He didn’t often gave any attention to insecurities, but the way Jude’s family all treated him certainly helped to squash the pesky thoughts in the briefest moments they appeared. And Jude’s own treatment of him as well - he put a lot of effort in to making Davet feel secure as well. Which always worked - because he was just happy to be in the position in life he was now.
Dav chuckled softly at Keighley’s question of how she hadn’t heard of that before. “It’s often easier to talk about the more recent roles. I loved my first time on a stage, but I certainly wasn’t good - even for having a non-speaking role.” He believed he’d tripped the person playing the Beast at least 3 different times during their first performance. He’d just been so exceptionally nervous. Hearing Jude’s manifesting, he grinned at him and leaned over to give him a peck on the cheek, simply nodding in agreement. If his boyfriend said it would be so, he had no doubts that it would. “Maybe between now and then I can convince you to be my Cogsworth.” He knew the last movie made had added different relationship representation with Lafou and Gaston - but if you asked him, there was a duo that was an even better fit. Ahh, yes, the infamous play in which he and Reagan had acted opposite each other. Dav was glad Jude saw such humor in it - as despite how professional they were, been in an on stage relationship with your sister-in-law boyfriend’s sister was just a tad uncomfortable. Even if that person was also your best friend. “I just hope if we both go movie, it’s nothing ever over PG.” He might actually turn down those ones if it came about.
The two siblings were so similar, it was beyond endearing. Davet watched them both fondly as they tackled their hot cocoas before focusing on the replies to his previous question. “Chip is very cute. And Lumiere and Cogsworth are truly worthy of being favorites! I quite like Belle’s father, Maurice too.” Though that was really only for the animated one. Watching Jude get to work with hair items and hit the play button, he picked out a couple nail polishes they had brought out before. If he remembered correctly, the ‘house’ they were part of at their school had the colors yellow and black. And while he thought the black was too harsh, he was pretty certain he’d also heard one of Keighley’s nicknames was Sunflower - so he opted for a yellow, a complimenting shade of orange and a little bit of brown. He could make a sunflower on one finger and then the surrounding ones have petals falling here and there.

For those that didn't know her, she was a people person. Always. that was simply how she was, bubbly and cheerful much like her big brother Jude. She was also relatively simple, if her siblings got along with someone, she typically did as well. Carefree and easy to please. Davet truly had nothing at all to worry about when it came to her. As long as Jude was happy, then so was she. It really was as simple as that. Annnnnnd from what she could see, both young men seemed tremendously happy.
Keighley giggled softly at hearing Davet speak about himself not being good during his first role in Beauty and the Beast. "But that's alright! We all have to begin somewhere and we learn and grow from our mistakes... look how far you've come now!" Really it was something. Davet and Reagan both had grown loads and loads! She hadn't even known Davet all that long and she had seen the difference in his performances already. "Oooh, the two of you in the play together would be lovely! I want tickets to that showing." She wouldn't miss something like that for anything in the world! Thoughts of Davet and Rea having to be a couple in more plays again had her giggle. "They would do amazing no matter who they had to play." She had faith in all of them.
Lifting the mug of cocoa to her lips, she took a small sip of the hot liquid. Nod, nod, nod went her head, her blonde hair falling all about her face. They all had such great taste in characters. "Heeeeeeey! Are you calling me a baby?" she laughed, her tone playful and her blue eyes shinning as she grinned at her big brother.

Jude was certain of one thing: if any of those particular insecurities of Dav’s surfaced now, it would easily vanish because of the way Keighley was chirping away with Davet. No one could be insecure about anything when the baby sister was around. She just had this way of making all the dark thoughts vanish; Jude would know as she had spent so much time helping him heal his heart a few years back.
Whatever the boyfriend said, had Jude known him back then, he would have still thought the world of Davet having a non-dialogue role. When it came to this young man beside him, Jude was positively obsessed! Just as he was obsessed with those kisses! Sorry, Keigh, if they came across as super duper mushy! Jude’s face sparkled with interest. “Oooh, I’d accept that role in a heartbeat! I mean, can you imagine the explosive chemistry we’d bring on screen too?” Not to mention Jude had picked up more than a few acting tips from Davet. Regarding Dav and Rea acting as a couple, he could never be mad about that; he was much too secure in his romantic relationship to ever be that way, even about Dav’s other on screen partners. Then again, it was the PG stuff he was comfortable with but he knew that Davet was much too considerate of him to do any other sort. “You both will. You’ll see soon enough.” Manifesting all the good things for the older sister and boyfriend! “Keigh’s right. You’ve come a far way, and you’ll go even further! With Keigh and I saying it, there’s no way it wouldn’t come through for you!” And for Rea!
Between watching the movie, brushing Keigh’s hair and drinking the hot chocolate, Jude was also watching Dav work on Keigh’s nails. The thought that the other guy would someday make a wonderful father crossed his mind once again. In turn, it reminded him that there was something they needed to tell Keigh. And now he was sort of bursting to get the words out but at the same time, did not want to interrupt the movie. If Dav happened to look over at him at any time, he’d just mouth the question at him; the question about if they should tell Keigh now that they wanted to secretly get married and that they wanted her to be one of the three witnesses.
“Yes, I’m absolutely calling you a baby, Keigh,’’ Jude replied happily, now beginning to separate a bit of his sister’s hair on the left side of her scalp, the bit closest to her ear, from the rest. He began to plait that bit, doing so until it was about a quarter of a way through. “You’re the baby of the four and always will be.” Their nieces - Linnet and Kestrel - were the babies of ALL the Anders'.

Davet grinned and agreed with a nod of his head, she certainly was correct. So terrible or not, he still appreciated his first experience. "You're very right. I don't think I ever would have even found how much I loved it if I hadn't first been the footstool." He laughed, thinking on it again. The idea of an acting role with Jude sounded like a dream, but he also knew that wasn't his passion and he was certainly okay with the fact they had different interests. Though of course that didn't mean he still wouldn't slip in a joke (or hint) here and there. "If I ever convince him, you'll be the first we send tickets to." He informed Keighley, grinning over at Jude. "In the mean time, we'll still send you tickets for anything Reagan and I do together in the future." Which he was certain Rea had covered anyways to begin with.
At Jude's words he would accept such a role, Davet beamed at him - mind already cycling through who he knew from the troop who might have connections to get that to be a thing. Even if it was just a local play, something like that as an extracurricular for them (in a few years of course, when poor Jude didn't have nearly as much on his plate) might be a fun surprise. "We do have good chemistry, if I say so myself." He was biased naturally, but that didn't make the information any less true to him. Dav did know Jude was very secure in their relationship, and he also knew the other male had every reason to be. He loved that Jude trusted him and knew that too and he would never do anything to endanger that level of trust. Which is probably why there were a lot of roles he would never consider, out of respect for his partner, even if he believed if they had conversations about things they could get to a level of being okay with anything. There was a lot of other roles out there though that he could accept without having to make any party uncomfortable - so why not just stick to those? "Thank you both for the vote of confidence. With support like that, there's really no chance of failure." Because even if he didn't make it big, he knew his loved ones supported him - and that was the true measure of success if you asked him.
Davet was very concentrated on what he was working on with her nails, so much so he started ignoring some of the movie though he could still hear it in the background. Every so often, around his favorite parts, he'd glance up and sing along with what was on screen, before returning back to what he was doing. It was on 'Be Our Guest' when he particularly got into an animated role of singing along with Lumiere (he was a drama kid, sometimes he still inadvertently went dramatic) that he then glanced over at Jude with a smile. He could see his boyfriend looking at him, and catching the mouthed question he gave a nod of his head. He was fine with Jude sharing that news whenever he was comfortable!

Should anyone need a cuddle or two or possibly twelve to help melt those insecurities right away, she was their gal. It may not seem like it but she knew all about being insecure. She was the one with both the girlfriend and the boyfriend, remember? Those times were done and over though and there wasn't any need in bringing them back up. She preferred to look ahead into the future now and only see the best of everything for the three of them.
"Me? Convince Jude of something? That's much too easy for me to do," Keighley giggled, turning her blue eyes onto her brother. "Right, Jude? If I ask nicely enough you'll do it?" It was that bond they had. She never had to beg or nag him for anything. All she had to do was ask. The same went for him, anything he wanted or needed, she would do for him.
Aha! See? She knew it. The blonde beamed widely at the two of them. "Perhaps the movie will have a dance number in it."That would be perfect for Jude. As for them sending her tickets, well she didn't expect anything less. "I'll be there. Every show, no matter what." Unless it was at the same time as Livvy or Charlie's Quidditch matches.. then there could be an issue. Otherwise she would be there. No one mind her while she made all of these commitments to everyone she loved dearly please and thanks.
"Of course, Davet! You'll always have my support." If he hadn't realized it by now he would be learning soon enough that she would be drowning him in it with all of her shows of 'sisterly' affection.
Keigh did her best to attempt to sit as still as she could manage while getting her hair and nails worked on. Most of the time she did fairly well except for whenever a song started and she HAD to join in and singalong! Sorry, not sorry, guys!

Davet’s very first acting stint as a footstool did reaffirm Jude’s belief that everything always worked out for the best. Just look at where his boyfriend was now career-wise! The two may have different interests but they were still very much supportive of each other which went a long way; Jude would know because Davet’s {in addition to his friend and family} served as a strong motivation to him. He sent the other young man a grin. “For you, I’d do anything.” Did Jude intentionally flirt there? Yes, he did. “And for you, little sister! You’ve got me wrapped around your finger and you know it!’’ It had always been like that between the two youngest Anders’ siblings. There wasn’t anything he wouldn’t do for Keigh also. “Oh, we do! Once everyone gets wind of our chemistry onstage as well, they’ll forget about you and Rea. They’ll just want us.” Sorry, Rea! But of course Jude was only joking about all but his and Davet’s chemistry! No matter whom Dav was set to be a lead in a play or movie with, the fact would always be that he would have the best chemistry with Jude despite the actor’s talent at portraying any character. Needless to say that Jude appreciated that his love would not even consider certain roles; it was a good thing also because while he wasn’t insecure in this relationship, he most likely would not have wanted to object to those roles for fear of everyone thinking he was holding Davet back.
“A dance number would sure make things even more interesting! I’d be game for dancing with Dav on screen or on stage!” Davet had come a long way in learning the different styles of dances Jude knew and taught. “Of course you will be there, Keigh, for it all but I’d get it if you were busy with MMA and Quidditch.” He was a very understanding big brother. Also, even if Jude did, for some reason, get a little under the weather, he knew that Keigh gave the best cuddles. She was who he would go to for pick-me-up cuddles, mhmm!
The younger guy was having the time of his life. Like… this was so comfortable, so perfect to be sitting here with two of his favourite people, having a chocolatey treat and watching a movie he loved. It was quite fun to see Dav and Keigh singing along with the dramatics and all. Jude himself got fully into it while finishing Keigh’s hairstyle. It was quite a colourful style with its multicoloured hair holders. “Tonight you'll prop your feet up but for now, let's eat up! Be our guest! Be our guest!’’ he sang just as loudly and dramatically as Davet while the last holder was added to the end of the braid with a flourish.
Jude gave Davet a warm smile and laid Keigh’s luscious hair over her shoulder. “So, Keigh. Dav and I, we’re thinking of getting married secretly and we’re hoping that you’d be one of our witnesses.” More details would be provided shortly BUT he just wanted to make sure that the news sank in and his sister wasn’t too occupied with the movie.
On a side note, the thought of being married to Davet was SUPER, SUPER exciting and thrilling to him!

If he wasn't at risk of messing up the nails he'd been meticulously working on, he would have leaned over to kiss Jude at his words - the flirting tone not at all lost on him. Instead, he settled for a wink, chuckling a bit too at the siblings. "I definitely don't think I've seen siblings with a better relationship than the pair of you." Which was saying a lot, considering he'd seen the rest of the Anders clan as well and they all seemed to get along splendidly. Jude's tone might have been teasing, but Davet actually suspected that would have been the truth. He and Rea were both great at what they did, but it also was no secret to people who knew them and saw them off stage they were simply the best of friends. Perhaps it was because of how loud they were too in their friendship and support of each other that could make people also remember that in their roles, not that Davet had any intention of being anything less than supportive and proud of his best friend. "It's true, we might unleash a type of monster if we perform together." It would be well worth it though.
At the suggestion of a dance number as well, Davet smiled a bit, another soft laugh escaping. "A dance number would be a must if Jude was involved." And it would probably be the most flawless one the curly haired boy would ever execute, considering there was no one he trusted to lead him like his partner. He'd gotten much better at dancing thanks to Jude, but when it came to doing scenes with anyone else it still often took... a lot of practices before he could nail it. Keighley's promise brought a smile to Davet's lips but he also nodded in agreement with Jude's words. With two partners also heavily involved in sporting matches, he knew she would have a lot of time constraints already on her hands. She didn't need to stress about them when other activities, her own or Olivia or Charlie's, came up. "We'll always have a seat prepared. But no stress if it isn't physically, in spirit we know it always is."
Considering this WAS their favorite movie, Davet wasn't perturbed when Keighley needed to move or animatedly sing along. In fact, he generally expected it and during the songs he'd sit a bit back with the nail polish so that she didn't have to hold quite so still. It was perhaps taking longer because of this but since they had the full movie, he didn't think that mattered too much. He watched the pair of siblings, his heart feeling especially full. He loved Jude being so happy and the supportive words from Keighley had a warmth of emotion running through him as well. As someone who'd never had siblings, it meant a lot to him to be so accepted now by his boyfriend's family. As Jude finished her hair when Be Our Guest ended, Davet quickly finished up the sunflower nails he'd decided on, and capped off the nail polish in order to put it away.
As Jude also shared their news, he grinned as wide as a chesire cat and just waited - observing the siblings.
