The Great Hall has been decorated in Ravenclaw colors, as both bride and groom belong to Ravenclaw house. At every place at every table is a small gift bag, Ryuuji's idea for wedding favors: each one contains a little stuffed aardvark holding a pillow with the couple's names and the date embroidered on it in tiny precise stitches, a packet of ( Read more... )

After a quick breakfast, Lily made her way back up to Ravenclaw. After her trip to Godric's Hollow yesterday, Lily felt emotionally drained, tired, but somewhat settled for the first time since she'd arrived at Hogwarts again. Still, she was mildly grateful for the distraction that this shopping excursion was going to afford her ( Read more... )
