Owl back, zinging with sparklestotallyluminousAugust 30 2007, 01:09:01 UTC
Neal--
Thank God there's someone sane around here. Yes, the Hat married people off, and thankfully I was not one of them. My best friend was, however, and she's being forced to live with some flabby misogynist who wants to farm beets.
(What ARE beets?)
Oh, I think the Hat is still marrying new applicants off--my boyfriend's evil mother's married to a vampire. Oh, and just so you know, if I come on to you wearing not a lot and being a bitch? It's not me.
...yeah, I guess we have stuff to talk about.
--Mel.

Approximately twenty seconds after she sends the owl, Mel comes charging up to the Ravenclaw common room. She raps once, to be polite, and then enters anyway. Seeing Neal, she smiles hugely and waltzes over to him.
Neal grinned, setting down his glass. "That was quick," he said. "I think you just missed your own owl." Mithros, it was good to see her. He'd been home, or at least back to Corus, and somehow had managed to spend most of a fortnight in the same general area as Owen of Jesslaw, and barely seen any of his own year-mates. So friend who didn't want to drag him out in the summer heat to spar because it was such a "jolly" thing to do was a wonderful prospect to Neal right now.
"Can I get you anything to drink?" he asked, indicating the bar with a slight nod. "If you've ever wanted anything from the Ravenclaw bar without wading through clinically depressed doctors, this would be the time."
Mel giggles, tucking one foot under her as she sits, letting the other dangle free, still looking relaxed and comfortable.
'Pity. He was a sweetie. Kept trying to eat my hair.' Well, when you're an angel, hyperactive animals come with the territory. It's useful at times.
'I'm fine!,' she continues, still smiling, and itching to give him a hug (even though fully-fledged knights probably don't do hugs). 'Well, I'm glad I was never that clever if that's what it would take to get a drink around here. I'd end up wanting a smoothie anyway. I guess everyone's been paired up, right?'
"If they haven't been, they're lying even lower than I am," he replied, with a shrug. "I've barely seen anyone since I got back. Which was only yesterday, but still. The place is empty."
He sighed. "So. Did I miss anything else? Besides the whole mass marriage issue?"
