Madame Puddifoot's is a quiet tea shop where you can meet up with your friends.
The tea shop is laid out in a typical English tea room fashion. Lace doilies cover each table on top of the flower patterned table cloths. In the middle of each is a small container with a tea light candle, ready to be lit for those on a romantic retreat. The windows are half covered by fancy net curtains, leaving just enough room at the top to see over and down Hogsmeade's High Street. Little flower and heart covered cushions are on each seat awaiting your arrival.
Sapphira Puddifoot keeps the shop this way because she has to. But she has no desire to look upon all the fancy decorations herself, which is why you'll most likely find her in the back room. She'll come and serve you, but make sure you know what you want to order as she doesn't have all day.

He have her a big smile as she made her way to him. Getting up he pulled out her chair for her but stopping her first to give her a big hug and a quick kiss on her rosy little cheeks… it was rather cold outside. ordering in advance two steaming mugs of hot chocolate were already at the table.
"I'll take your coat and help you get seated" he said sticking out his arm for her to place her coat on. See he was trying to be all romantic.. because he had a special gift to give her… His grandmother gave him a necklace to give to who ever he pleased and he knew it belonged to her. It was tucked away in a nice little box for him to give her later during their awesome date.
This was going to be an extra special date, Lux just knew it. And that made her even happier than ever which was saying a lot because she was always happiest when with Bay. After giving him a big hug, she kissed him then handed him her coat before taking a seat. "Wow, this is amazing. I love it." And he remembered her favourite flowers too! Sniffing them, they smelled divine. Eeep, she was so happy right now! Bay was the best boyfriend ever.
Oh, look! He had even gotten them hot chocolate. Wrapping her hand around her mug, she felt the warmth make her hands feel better. "I feel so special." She knew that she meant as much to him as he meant to her.
Agatha tightened her Slytherin scarf around her neck before she opened to door to enter Madame Pudifoot's tea place, but immediately loosened it after she stepped in. It felt like it was a lot warmer in there - and it was, obviously - and she definitely did not need the scarf now.
Since she wasn't expecting anyone to join her, she ordered a fruit salad - because she was healthy like that - and some tea - because all proper ladies drank tea - and took a seat near the window. That way she would be able to watch everyone freezing as they walked up and down the streets while she was all warm and cozy inside the shop.

He just loved how excited she was getting. Hanging up her coat with his he sat down and she had already placed her hands around the mug. "i knew you'd want some hot chocolate" he laughed because he was totally kidding. "I'm really glad you love it" he hasn't done this yet being all romantic and stuff.. normally they just hung out and relaxed or chilled with friends.
but for Bay to pull this romantic stuff he felt oddly proud. pushing a long white box towards her he said "I also got you a present too" he hoped she liked it… fingers crossed!

The hot chocolate really was wonderful as everything else. Sipping some, Lux looked around at the pretty decorations. Clearly he had done quite a bit of planning for this. A nice surprise since their dates were usually more on the casual side; fine with her as she didn't need constant romance to be happy.
He got her a present? She had thought he had done enough for her, but apparently there was more coming. Opening the box, she gasped. "It's beautiful. I love it so much."

he held one of her hands over the table after she opened her gift.. "I'm really glad you love it." he got up from his chair to go help her put it on. "here i'll help you put it on" he tried not to get his hands or necklace stuck in her nice long hair as he put the necklace on.
while he was putting it on he said "see this used to belong to my grandmother and my mother gave it to me.. seeing that I am an only child" he brushed some of her hair away to get more access to the clip. Fingers fumbling to close it he continued "so I thought… who would this be perfect for and obviously its you.. and its your favourite colour" he quickly added.. and now that he finally closed the necklace for her he said "all done"
He went to go sit back in his chair to admire the view.. "see it looks perfect on you" he could almost cry.

Grinning, Lux held her hair out of the way as best as possible while Bay went around to put the necklace on her. It was so pretty, and even better that it was blue, her favourite colour as he had mentioned. "It's the most wonderful necklace I ever had." And she wasn't just saying that either. It was really pretty, and the fact that it was something passed down through his family made it even more special.
It was nice that he thought it looked perfect on her. "I love you." The words had just slipped put, but they were true. She did love him.
Kace decided it was time to put his plan into play. He wanted to surprise her and tell her to meet her here. He played with his gift box he had in his hand. He already got her something for christmas. But now it was time to show her the anniversary gift. He figured he would get her a gift she would always remember him by.
He found his table for him and Emmy. Now he waited patiently for his little panda to arrive. He hoped he dressed alright for the occasion.

Simon was on a mission. Cutty and him were teaming up to keep an eye on their mate, Ethan, to make sure he didn't mess up his big date with Josie. These were the little important things in life to the Slytherin guys.
He pushed the door open and entered Madame Puddifoot's. A tinkling bell indicated his entrance. He felt a shiver run up his back when he glanced around the room. Ew. Couples were everywhere. Ew. His eyes scanned the crowd looking for Cutty first and then Ethan and Josie. He couldn't see any of them so he carefully made his way over to the far corner and secured a table that gave him a good view of the room. Now all he had to do was wait for Cutty to show up and then E-daunt (Ethan and Josie).
He glanced around. It was really tacky in here. He'd make sure not to bring a date here when he finally got up the courage to ask a girl. Meh. That could take years at Simon's rate.

Entering shortly after Simon Holden was Cutty Mordaunt. The Slytherin boy remained blank faced as the bell announced his arrival. He immediately headed for the most crowded area of the restaurant in order to blend in with the weekend crowd. From there, he snaked his way over to the bar near a corner table which seemed to have the best possible vantage. This was perfect.
The boy was soon reaching into his robes in hopes of finding his beard-growing potion in order than he maybe properly disguised whilst waiting for Ethan and...
"Holden?" Cutty slid off the higher seat and helped himself to one next to his dormmate. "Is this a veritable cesspool of hand-holders and snoggers or what?" He asked casually.

Gross. If no one showed up in five more minutes, Simon was going to be bolting out the nearest door or window. Preferably door, but if some couples chased out of him- he'd go through the window. He wouldn't hesitate. Nu-huh. This was a compromising situation...
Huh? Someone had called him by his last name. The voice sounded very familiar... Too familiar....
Simon glanced up from his seat and saw his dormmate, Cutty, taking a seat at his table. "Cutty," he beamed, waving at his friend. Oh, he was sure glad to see Cutty in here. Now he was less outnumbered. He leaned towards Cutty so he would be the only one that heard him. "Yes to everything you just said. It's disgusting. Too much snogging not enough intellectual chat," he explained before glancing around the room. "I'm never taking a date in here." Pulling up the menu towards his face, Simon glanced about the tea room once more and found no sign of E-daunt. Hmmm.. He checked his watch. Ethan wasn't usually too tardy. He frowned.
"No sign of Ethan yet in here... Did you see him when you left the Common Room?"

"No sign of Ethan yet in here... Did you see him when you left the Common Room?"
"Nor. Could've beaten us both to breakfast this morning. Maybe he was meeting Josette beforehand." Cutty supposed that this is where it began. The part where they'd see less and less of their dormmate because his free time would be spent with his girl. Not that it bothered Cutty. In fact, he was accustomed to and preferred inattention as it liberated him to do all manner of things. Idle hands.
"Booht, if they'll be anywhere on their little date, it's bound to be here, mate. Madame Puddifoots is the premiere snog-spot and has been for centuries." He stated as if he knew a thing or two about it. "Gehls loooov this place." Cutty didn't know Josette well enough to realize that she may not be game for the garish interiors. He spotted Holden checking his watch and commented.
"Let's givvim ..." He paused here considering the time. "17 minutes t'show 'is face. After that I would assume he'd found another place to be with Josie." In the meantime, though, he ordered a butterbeer. "Have you met Casper Duluth?" He said asking about their VERY reclusive dormmate.

Simon blinked. Oh yeah, that was right. Merlin. He'd miss Ethan over the course of the upcoming weeks, but he had Cutty there. And Cutty had him. He and Cutty would stick together. Well do they're separate research and discuss about it later. Ethan would be back. He wouldn't waltz off into the sunset with pretty Ravenclaw girl- or would he? No, no. Ethan wouldn't.
"I suppose so. I did hear from some upper classmen that this was the place to take a really nice girl too," he added as he crossed his arms. He didn't like this way one bit. First of all, it was way too pink. It was nauseating pink. Second of all, there were may too many frills everywhere. Simon felt his manliness decreasing by the second being in here. Yeah, he was never ever bringing a date in here.
Simon could've fallen off his chair when Cutty suggested that they ought to wait seventeen minutes? SEVENTEEN MINUTES?!?! That was way too long. He was unsure whether or not he'd even last five minutes in this sickly sweet establishment-place-thing. As Cutty ordered a butterbeer, Simon shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly at the thought of ordering. Might as well treat themselves to something nice out whilst they were on their mission. He ordered one too. He furrowed his brows at Cutty's question. "I haven't actually. I think I may have seen him around but we've never talked before. What's he like? Have you met him?"

As the butterbeers came 'round Cutty took the first long drink from the bottle before thinking how to answer that. A sort of animated sigh of relief escaped him and he put the bottle down onto the surface of their table. "Yeah, he's usually sleeping by the time we get oop to our dorms." Or fakin' it. Cutty wasn't entirely sure, cause maybe Casper got in later than they did and just made the bed to look like he'd been there. "And I've met him. He's sort of on the shyer side, though." Cutty found the boy socially awkward that one time they had met and figured it wasn't very likely that he had too many friends. Plus his robes smelled quite strongly of some ashen or burnt substance.
The important part, however was, "He's loaded, mate!" As in galleons from heaven.
Agatha was drinking her tea all proper-like, eating some of her fruit salad every once in a while and looking out the window when she spotted Cutty.
She watched him walking outside Madame Puddifoot and was sure he was just going to keep walking, but NO! He actually entered the shop. The girl immediately frowned, very curious. She gently placed her tea cup on the saucer and stretched a bit to keep watching where Cutty was going. Why was he in such a pink place? Surely he wasn't alone, then?
Yep, she was right. Soon enough, her housemate joined another kid Agatha didn't know, but who seemed around their age. Part of her wanted to go there and inquire about their reason to be there by themselves, looking suspicious and like the were up to something, but the other part of her wanted to just watch them from a distance and see if she found out anything. She knew how boys could be. They might just lie to her pretending they're doing nothing and then she'd never find out what was going on.
So she was going to wait right there. Always watching, she was. Watching.

Simon eyed the drink known as a butterbeer. He hadn't had one before. It was an amber coloured liquid with foam at the top. It was bizarre. As Cutty took a sigh after taking a sip, Simon decided to drink some too. He took a sip and his eyes widened at the taste of it. WOAH. It was sugary and buttery and so good. He'd have to order more of those in the future. Taking a deep breath, he listened to Cutty as he was kept into the loop about their quiet dormmate. S
He frowned. Simon felt sort of bad that he had never spoken to this Casper. He felt sort of a jerk because of it. He knew what it was like to be alone and he had hated that feeling immensely. "Perhaps we should invite him out with us?" offered Simon, trying to be nice about the whole situation. He shrugged. "Aren't we all though? I mean- I was extremely shy before I met you and Ethan." 'Twas very true. Simon had been as awkward and as quiet as a mouse until he ran into Cutty and Ethan at separate occasions. Then Grayson came along. Now look at them. They all hung out. The Slytherins had formed a group quite quickly.
He took another sip of his butterbeer, enjoying the taste of it all once again.
Simon raised his eyebrows when Cutty brought up the point that Casper was loaded. He furrowed his eyebrows. "Loaded? As in wealthy?" he asked, rather confused.

Simon raised his eyebrows when Cutty brought up the point that Casper was loaded. He furrowed his eyebrows. "Loaded? As in wealthy?" he asked, rather confused.
Cutty took another drink...or two...or three before he answered Simon. "Yeah. He could buy oos and sell oos if he wanted to." Fact. At least from what Cutty had figured.
At the suggestion of inviting Duluth out with them, Cutty merely said, "Perhaps." But what he meant by that was 'Perhaps if they did, Casper would be less likely to start the eventual cursing-spree that was more or less guaranteed with antisocial types in the Slytherin boys dorms.' Casper was the reason Cutty slept with his wand within easy reach. The foamy cap of the drink, Cutty had been drinking now stuck to his upper lip with his last indulgence giving him the look of a young boy at a costumed affair dressed as his own grandfather.
Cutty's brow furrowed a bit at what Simon had followed up the idea of inviting Casper out with. Not in an angry way. He was just thinking. "You remind me of him. Not Casper. Toby. Toby Tempus. Have you met him yet?" Probably not if Simon was being honest about his shyness.

"Buy us and sell us? Do you honestly think he'd do that?" asked Simon, raising his eyebrows surprised by Cutty's worrying over Casper. He didn't know the other boy at all but he didn't think that Casper would sell the rest of the boys. That was a little bit too extreme, wasn't it? He blinked. Who knew with these boys? The majority of the ones in their dorms were purebloods, but they didn't have a vendetta out against mixed bloods and muggleborns anymore. Or did they? He took a sip of butterbeer, trying to wash away those paranoid thoughts out his mind as quickly as he could.
So was that a yes or a no? thought Simon. He tried to gauge his dormmate's reaction to what he had said, but Cutty was rather good at keeping a straight face. It seemed as if his friend wasn't too thrilled on that prospect. Then perhaps they should invite others out? Simon checked his watch again. Twelve minutes. Only five minutes had passed. He took another swig of butterbeer. "Nice mustache, Cutty!" he added chuckling as he was completely and utterly unaware of his own foam mustache.
Simon raised his eyebrows when Cutty told him that he reminded him of someone. Casper?!? he hoped not. As soon as Cutty continued, he felt a sense of relief wash over him. Toby, eh? Simon hadn't met this Toby yet. He took another swig of butterbeer. He didn't really know anyone in or out of his house. Really the only people he spoke to had been Cutty, Ethan, and Zander. As well as Piersie, but Piersie was an adult so it wasn't the same in Simon's mind. The boy had a few acquaintances from classes but no other firm friends. "No, I haven't met Toby yet. Is he a Slytherin as well?" Was he nice too? Hopefully, yes?
Kace decided it was time to put his plan into play. He wanted to surprise her and tell her to meet her here. He played with his gift box he had in his hand. He already got her something for christmas. But now it was time to show her the anniversary gift. He figured he would get her a gift she would always remember him by.
He found his table for him and Emmy. Now he waited patiently for his little panda to arrive. He hoped he dressed alright for the occasion.
This was it, their one year anniversary. How had they been together for one year already? Emmylou felt weird not getting him just an anniversary present but his birthday/Christmas present was for their anniversary to because she had to spend her money on her friends as well. which made her sad but she was lucky to even get an allowance while being at Hogwarts. For the first time since September Emmylou finally remembered where she had to meet someone but maybe that was because this was very important and it was but she was also very nervous. The Gryffindor knew that there was nothing to be worried about but that also made her even more nervous.
Emmylou walked into the shop and looked around for her boyfriend. Where was he. Oh! Right there! Emmylou smiled brightly and waved to him before she pretty much ran over to him and gave him a long hug. "I missed you!"

"Buy us and sell us? Do you honestly think he'd do that?" asked Simon, raising his eyebrows surprised by Cutty's worrying over Casper. He didn't know the other boy at all but he didn't think that Casper would sell the rest of the boys. That was a little bit too extreme, wasn't it? He blinked. Who knew with these boys? The majority of the ones in their dorms were purebloods, but they didn't have a vendetta out against mixed bloods and muggleborns anymore. Or did they? He took a sip of butterbeer, trying to wash away those paranoid thoughts out his mind as quickly as he could.
So was that a yes or a no? thought Simon. He tried to gauge his dormmate's reaction to what he had said, but Cutty was rather good at keeping a straight face. It seemed as if his friend wasn't too thrilled on that prospect. Then perhaps they should invite others out? Simon checked his watch again. Twelve minutes. Only five minutes had passed. He took another swig of butterbeer. "Nice mustache, Cutty!" he added chuckling as he was completely and utterly unaware of his own foam mustache.
Simon raised his eyebrows when Cutty told him that he reminded him of someone. Casper?!? he hoped not. As soon as Cutty continued, he felt a sense of relief wash over him. Toby, eh? Simon hadn't met this Toby yet. He took another swig of butterbeer. He didn't really know anyone in or out of his house. Really the only people he spoke to had been Cutty, Ethan, and Zander. As well as Piersie, but Piersie was an adult so it wasn't the same in Simon's mind. The boy had a few acquaintances from classes but no other firm friends. "No, I haven't met Toby yet. Is he a Slytherin as well?" Was he nice too? Hopefully, yes?
Cutty looked solemn as if meditating deeply on the question posed by Simon. With his foamy mustache he could've looked a bit like a junior philosopher. Finally, having considered that Casper had probably owned and sold many individuals before and might be bored of it by now. "No.". Also, Casper just seemed like if he purchased anything in the near future, it wouldn't be something which required social interaction.
"Huh??!" Cutty drug his sleeve under his nose wiping away the sweet, frothy 'stache and looking down on it once he'd gotten it off. Amused? Embarrassed? He wasn't sure what the right thing to go for here would be. So he just sort of nursed a calm smile before moving on.
"Not really. I mean, he's someone who couldn't be Slytherin even if he tried." Cutty put his elbows on the table and held his head between his hands, kicking his legs out beneath the table. "I thought he was." He said as if it were a bad thing to be anything else. As if the reality of who Toby Tempus was were bleaker. "It turns out...", he said suddenly up tempo again. "That he wasn't who he pretended to be at all. So maybe he had a bit of Slytherin in him, like his grandmother or someone like that. But it was fairly easy, after a bit, to suss him out."
Cutty looked down at Simon's watch. "Yer almost done with yer boohterbeer, mate?"

Cutty looked down at Simon's watch. "Yer almost done with yer boohterbeer, mate?"
Simon nodded. Exactly. Casper couldn't possibly sell them to Durmstrang and the boys would spend the rest of their lives cleaning out cauldrons. Talk about how boring and repetitive that would get every day. But what if Cutty's slight inclination was right...? What if Cutty had actually picked up that their dormmate who was as quiet and meek as a mouse was planning on selling them? What if their dormmate was planning to take over the world?! Simon was growing more and more paranoid by the second as he was plagued with these thoughts. Hmmmmm... He'd just have to meet Casper himself.
He took another sip of his butterbeer. Almost done. In three more sips, he would have drained the whole drink. He raised his eyebrows as Cutty described Toby. Wait. Hadn't Cutty? Simon was a little confused by how Cutty was speaking, but continued listening to his friend about this Toby. Had Toby wronged Cutty in some way or something? If he had then Simon was sure that he wouldn't like this Toby boy too much. No one wronged a friend of Simon's and got away with it so easily!! "Pretended to be something he wasn't?" said Simon. So the boy had lied a couple of times or something? "That's not good. We're you two....erm... close?
And as Cutty asked him if he was done with his 'boohterbeer', Simon chuckled. "Almost done with, my boohterbeer," he teased, trying to pronounce it as Cutty did but it came out in a broader Australian accent. Yeah, that didn't work. He drained his butterbeer and glanced at Cutty. Mission time again! "So where do you think those two loverbirds went? Hogs Head? Three Broomsticks? Honeydukes?" They were definitely not in Puddifoot's... so... Where could they be?
This was it, their one year anniversary. How had they been together for one year already? Emmylou felt weird not getting him just an anniversary present but his birthday/Christmas present was for their anniversary to because she had to spend her money on her friends as well. which made her sad but she was lucky to even get an allowance while being at Hogwarts. For the first time since September Emmylou finally remembered where she had to meet someone but maybe that was because this was very important and it was but she was also very nervous. The Gryffindor knew that there was nothing to be worried about but that also made her even more nervous.

As Kace was sitting there nervously, he noticed Emmy came. When she came through the door, his reaction was, Woww...she looked gorgeous. He blinked a couple times to make sure his eyes didn't play tricks on him. But it was the truth. She looked lovely in her dress. He smiled and got up from his chair and he felt her hug first. Then he wrapped his arms around her and said, "I have missed you too.." while squeezing tighter. "I am glad to be back and now I can spend time with my favorite girl.." he said lightly stroking her cheek. He then realized she needed to sit. He took his hand away from her cheek and pulled out the chair for her to sit in. "Ladies first.." he grinned. "By the way you look beautiful.." he said still admiring her dress.
Then he walked around and fiddled with his box. "Remember when you said I didn't have to get you anything...?" he said reaching into his pocket and revealed the box with his gift.
Text Cut: His thoughts on Casper are a work of art! <3

They were definitely not in Puddifoot's... so... Where could they be?
It had unintended outcome, this telling someone else of Toby Tempus thing Cutty had decided to try. Protective 'I've got your back' wasn't what Cutty was going for, but he'd take it. "It's a bit hard to tell, to tell yer the truth." Were they close? Cutty hardly knew the meaning. He was ready to move on from talk of Toby, though. He did not want to say too much, but for reasons more nefarious than virtuous.
What might have looked to have been a tolerant smile washed across Cutty's pale and lightly freckled face. It was tolerance, only more in the sense that Cutty was trying to build some up in order to inoculate himself against 'Liverpuddlian Simon' and the amused way it made him feel. "That was perfect, mate. Now never do that again." Back to the mission at hand. "Well if they're in the Hog's Head, yer on yer own, mate. I'm not allowed back in there." Sort of. He was still a bit afraid of being recognized. "I think the next most logical place would probably be the Broomsticks." Cutty paid for his drink then left the remains behind him as he immediately started for the Broomsticks.
Now that would mess up the whole space-time continuum!

Simon paused and waited for Cutty to find the right words to explain the whole Toby Tempus situation when all of a sudden his friend told him that he didn't know how to phrase it. He nodded understandingly. Some things were just too complicated to express effectively in words. Perhaps that's why some things were expressed through numbers in Arithmancy? "It's okay, I understand, mate. You don't have to tell me anything else if you don't want to," said Simon as he nodded. Yep, he didn't have to know anything else. He was there for Cutty cause Cutty was his mate.
Was Cutty smiling? OOh. Simon hadn't witnessed his friend smiling too often, but it was a nice change. People smiling made the world feel better. That had been what Emmylou had said. He burst out into laughter as Cutty told him to never do that again. Aww drats. "Aww, now you can't tell me that now! I was getting good at it!" But doesn't practice make perfect? He'd have to practice the accent if he ever wanted to be convincing at it. Simon's blue eyes widened with surprise when he heard that Cutty wasn't allowed back in the Hogs Head. Before Simon could ask what in Merlin's name had happened to Cutty at that particular pub, his friend was pointing out the next logical place to go. The Three Broomsticks. He nodded. "Yep, let's go there. The sooner we get there, the quicker we leave this infernal place of fluffy pink things."
Yep, don't ever underestimate the power of fluffy pink things- especially pink rabbits... They could kill you with kindness...
Readjusting his hat and gloves, he glanced at his friend, "Ready?"
Madame Puddifoot's

That was way too long. He was unsure whether or not he'd even last five minutes in this sickly sweet establishment-place-thing. 
As Cutty ordered a butterbeer, Simon shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly at the thought of ordering. Might as well treat themselves to something nice out whilst they were on their mission. He ordered one too. He furrowed his brows at Cutty's question. "I haven't actually. I think I may have seen him around but we've never talked before. What's he like? Have you met him?"
"Pretended to be something he wasn't?" said Simon. So the boy had lied a couple of times or something? "That's not good. We're you two....erm... close?
