Guys? I brought home a new roommate, I hope no one minds..I mean, we have the bed since Luna left, and she looked lost and she's very nice

We'll just have to hope that Ginny doesn't scare her off of the girls' room. I'll have to say hello when I get the chance.

A party sounds nice, really. I'm willing to pitch in, certainly.

Do you think we should get something for Mr. Styles? What with his... illness and all. I haven't seen him since he got carted off.

You'll like her, Ron, she's very polite. I think she's around Ginny's age. I hope they get along..

Any ideas where we should hold it? The office is big enough for us, but if we're inviting the people from the palace staff as well, we might have to go someplace a little bit bigger.

Oh...that I don't know. Are you getting him something? I was just going to...stay out of his way, until he called us.

Private;

They likely will. Ginny gets along with most people who aren't me... or Malfoy, or any given Death Eater.

Isn't the Palace some swanky deal itself? Maybe Brocklehurst'll let us hold it there, if we ask.

That... Might be a good plan, actually. Perhaps we could just... Send along an interesting plant, or something.

Well, I'm almost definitely sure Sarah isn't a Death Eater, Ron. She doesn't even own a wand.

Good idea. Though, he might be a little preoccupied. Wedding plans and all. I wouldn't want to bother him..

Maybe I should just..send along some water plants that he can put in that fish tank he's got.

It could be a very clever disguise. And to think you just let her waltz right in!

...I'd rather not think about that particular ceremony. Um... Maybe we could rent some place for an evening?

Good show, mate.

Private;

[snake_slayer]

Wha-..what? I didn't, she was lost!

Well, maybe, yes. That would work...We're the youngest people there, do you think the others would want to go to a club or a bar?

I'll say it's from both of us.

Private;

[the_wheezy]

... I'm only joking, you know.

I don't know why they won't believe we're of age by wizarding standards... This obsession with our drinking juice is a little silly. We could probably get a club room or something, though.

If you want. You don't have to though; I'll manage.

Private;

[snake_slayer]

..Oh. Right. I knew that.

I know, but...well, at least we won't be alone? Rose won't be drinking either.

No, it's all right. You can help me bring it over, if you like?

Private;

[the_wheezy]

True enough... We can look into renting some place tomorrow, then.

Sure. I won't leave you hanging, mate. Who knows if he'll be on the warpath, or not.

Private;

[snake_slayer]

That'll work. Sure, all right, Ron.

...Right, well, he'll probably be more upset with me, in any case. But the good news is we can run out of there, and he'll still be stuck in bed. At least, I think that's good news. It might just be a delay of the bad news.

Private;

[the_wheezy]

We'll be alright, I'm sure. At least he's not Voldemort, yeah?

Private;

[snake_slayer]

Voldemort never made you fix a copy machine, Ron.

Private;

[the_wheezy]

... At least my dad'll be proud to know I've done it.

Private;

[snake_slayer]

You'll be coming home with a whole book of knowledge about Muggle computers, Ron.

Private;

[the_wheezy]

I can exchange it for all the stress I've probably caused at home.

Private;

[snake_slayer]

Well, maybe you'll come back at the same time you left. At least, I hope that's what happens. Otherwise, I don't want to think about what Gran would say..
