Twenty-fourth move.

I think I might've eaten too much yesterday. Couldn't really get out of bed for a while this morning... er, afternoon. Late afternoon. But it's still technically the holidays, right? There's no reason to be up and about at dawn or anything.

Ruby, I got a laugh out of that book. It should come in handy. Thanks!

Sirius, if you've got anyone you'd want

I can think of a few people. Try Robin. Seems like a stick in the mud to me.

Stay away from Russia though. I'd like you kept in one piece.

[chess_wizard]

Robin, huh? I don't think I know the bloke. ... or is it a girl? Hard to tell, with that name.

That's one of those ones that thinks he's a country, isn't it? I try to stay away from them as best as I can.

[cockofthewok]

Bloke. He's got this cute bird named Starfire that's interested in him. Total todie.

Yeah. He's a nutter is what he is. He's the one that was wearing the Queen's dress during that one event. Never expected Russians to be trannys.

[chess_wizard]

Yeah? Guys like that always seem to get the girls. That's why I don't understand women. Well, that's one reason, anyway.

Oh, that one? I wouldn't go near him unless there was no way in hell the prank would ever come back to me! And as Fred and George would tell you, that isn't likely to happen without a bit more practise.

[cockofthewok]

You don't understand 'um much better in time mate. Women are fascinating and fantastic creatures.

Practice makes perfect little cousin. Oi, what do you think of age lines?

[chess_wizard]

Yeah, and so are dragons. That doesn't mean I'd want to keep one of those too close, though.

Age lines? What do you mean?

Sirius wants to put an age line/beard charm on the kitchen entrance.

[cockofthewok]

Once your voice drops you'll want to keep girls a lot closer.

You've never done any research on age lines?

.... why oh why?!

[chess_wizard]

My voice...? Oh. Either they start making sense in a few years, or I'll get dumber by then. I'm not sure which is more likely.

I mean, I've heard of them, sure. But I never really had an opinion on them. They're supposed to keep kids out of things that kids shouldn't be sneaking into, yeah?

Because the mansion full of people with big beads is a BRILLIANT idea~

[cockofthewok]

You won't understand 'um, but you'll sure like 'um a lot more.

That's one use for them.

Oh Sirius, you silly, silly boy.

[chess_wizard]

How can I like something I don't understand?

... what other use have they got?

That's why we love him~

[cockofthewok]

That, my cousin, is one of the world's greatest mysteries.

Good fun. Wanna help me pull a beautiful prank?

This is true. <3

[chess_wizard]

... great, so you're telling me nobody gets them, and yet we end up fighting each other over them in a few years.

Depends. On who?

Molly is going to kill Sirius for bringing her son into this.

[cockofthewok]

Pretty much.

Everyone. That's the beauty of it.

We're just lucky she hasn't already barged into this conversation.

[chess_wizard]

Everyone? How are you going to manage that?

We totally are.

[cockofthewok]

Age lines can go anywhere.

We'd both get our ears hexed off.

[chess_wizard]

... why do you want to put age lines up?
