With no compunction whatsoever he made his way over to his friend. "A lovely day for burning things, is it not?" he remarked, shielding his eyes with one hand in order to get a better look at the bonfire.

He would have been scandalised, and quite disgustedly amused, had he known about the modern trend of getting tattooed with words one could not oneself read.
"Until then you shall have to content yourself with your own irreverent wardrobe." And the bits of Stephen's wardrobe that didn't have Latin written on it, but that went without saying, obviously. He smiled at her, content.

She scanned the crowd, inordinately content herself. "Here, why don't you grab some food and come sit with me?" she said, nodding to an empty space beside the fire. "Balancing all this is a bit much to deal with."

"I'd like to think so," she said. "You're probably right, though. Gods, sometimes I hate having to be so paranoid." She shrugged and set the plate aside, though she kept her glass of whiskey. "Especially when I'm hungry." Given some of the things that the food here had done, it was justifiable paranoia, but still.

It seemed someone had been thoughtful enough to haul folding chairs out, or rather to direct house-elves to do so, or perhaps to transfigure clumps of grass into folding chairs, who knew? Stephen led Susan to a pair of vacant chairs. "I have not seen any blatant misbehavior or proof of enchantment in any of the partygoers yet, but then, I have only just arrived." And made a beeline for his quasi-girlfriend, the remark revealed. Oh, Stephen, so subtle.

Carefully balancing her plate and glass, she managed to sit without losing anything. The lack of subtlety behind the remark was not lost on her, and she gave him a smile that was at once fond and amused. "Well, if anything goes wrong, I guess we'll be the first to know," she said. "Though if I look like I'm going to do anything too stupid, please promise you'll hit me over the head or something." Her confused memories of Valentine's Day told her that she'd already made a complete fool of herself in public at least once, and she had no desire to do so again.

"If you look as though you are going to do anything stupid, I think I shall run in the opposite direction." He was obviously joking, but he sort of wished he weren't joking.
