The sign on the bar this evening is written with glowing red and green letters:

Free Cracker with Your Drink

There is a large pile of gaily colored Cribbages Wizarding Crackers stacked next to the sign.

And there is a young, ginger-haired witch waiting to see if she has any customers. If the hat perched on her head is anything to go by, she has

"You might scare the Muggles with those," Scorpius says, pointing at the pile.

[lilium_evansiae]

"With the bang and the smoke?" she says. "Yeah, possibly.

"I can warn people, though.

"Thank you for the scarf, Scorpius." Which is is now wearing as the mun has remembered to write the other half of the EP *facepalms*.

"It's very pretty."

[alsoagreengrass]

"You're welcome. I didn't know if you would like it, but the saleswoman at Gladrags Wizardwear said a girl would, so. But, uhm - They do like to push products too..."

He frowns slightly, then shakes his head. Where was he?

"Anyway! I'm glad you like it."

[lilium_evansiae]

"I like it a lot," Lily says.

"Happy Christmas.

"D'you want something to drink? Cracker?"

[gorgonfondness]

"Good evening, Lily," Mia greets.

Her hair is tied back and she's wearing a thin, grey dress that's hugging her small baby bump. Slung over her arm, however, is her gift.

"So, these are crackers. I had wondered what they looked like before when Draco suggested that Cepheus could play with them last year."

[lilium_evansiae]

"He might have been a bit young," Lily says, if she's remember Cephues' age correctly, "but yeah, these are crackers."

[gorgonfondness]

"That's what I told Draco last year. And even just under two might be a bit young, too."

She shrugs and maneuvers herself onto a barstool.

"Could I please have a big mug of tea? And some Saylan pickled cactus if you can find a jar."

[lilium_evansiae]

"I'll cheat," Lily says, just before she pulls out her wand and says, "Accio Saylan pickled cactus."

She catches the jar that comes zooming toward her and sets it in front of Mia while she turns her attention to making tea.

(Lily is a terribly cook, but she makes very, very good tea.)

"Bartending, now, are you?" That would be Peeta. Settling on a stool.

[lilium_evansiae]

"Occasionally," Lily says, cheerfully.

"Good evening, Peeta.

"Something for you?"

[real_or_notreal]

"Occasionally." His elbows went on the bar, and his chin in his hands. In this light, with that bemused smile and bright eyes, it'd be hard to ever picture him as the paint stained lost young man he was that long ago night. "Does that mean you've done it before?"

[lilium_evansiae]

"Maybe four times?" Lily says, trying to remember.

"I actually think it's fun. I daresay I'd feel differently if I had to do it every day, but occasionally, sure. Why not?

"Has Bar never asked you to, then?"
