Tracey's day went well and she felt very productive. Hogwarts had come through and provided book lists for the rush that would certainly start within the next two to three weeks, giving her amble about of time to contact publishers and order the appropriate amount. She even managed to slip by the manager without having to speak with him.

Deciding to go out; it was her birthday after all, Tracey quickly apparated to Hogsmeade for dinner. She heard Rosie did something for Bastille day every year, so she decided to check it out. She walked from the apparition point to the pub. Walking in she looked at the specials for the day and smiled before taking a seat at the bar. "I'll have a glass of the house red and the special of the day."

Blaise had spent enough time in France lately working at secruing references for a job at the Ministry. He'd found that his mother's "friends" weren't quite willing to offer up letters of recommendation until he'd proven himself. Therefore, he'd been forced into working on on of his mother's causes. The current cause being research on how Beauxbatons needed to be reorganized for maximum learning potential. It was grueling work and he hated every minute of it. There was way too much reading involved ( ... )

She turned when she heard Blaise's voice. Of course, she opened her mouth in protest, but closed it. "If you insist," she said as the bartender slid a glass of wine in front of her and a shot of firewhiskey in front of Blaise.

"How have you been? Haven't seen you in a while," she said taking a sip of the wine; it was dry, but sweet.

Blaise downed the shot and decided that a glass of water would be the best course of action for his next drink.

"Mother has kept me quite busy in France. She's got this new cause that I've become all wrapped up in," he didn't elaborate as he thought the topic was rather boring. Of course if she asked, he would oblige. "How has your day been?"

"What's Bastille?" Ron asked aloud, poking at a crepe on his plate.

Rosie raised an eyebrow and laughed. "The Bastille is the medieval fortress and prison in Paris that represented royal authority in the center of Paris, during the the reign of Louis XVI," she explained. "The fall of the Bastille was the flashpoint of the French Revolution."

"You mean it's not a pastry, then?"

Ron had never claimed to know much about history, especially when it came to France. He offered Rosie a faint sort of grin -- hadn't been smiling much lately, to be honest -- and went back to his crepes. "Shame."

It wasn't that things weren't going well. He'd managed to convince himself quite thoroughly that they were. It was only that he was Ron, and he couldn't really help being Ronnish; it was sort of the point of having any identity at all. Sometimes he felt he couldn't escape the trends he'd already set for himself. Maybe it was a good thing Megan couldn't always be around; she wouldn't have to experience his mood swings for herself.

Giving him a little pout, Rosie said, "No, sorry. Not a pastry." As she watched him she notice there wasn't much behind his smile. "You all right, Ron? Is it bird trouble? I'm sure I can find you one." Rosie stood up and began to scan the crowd for someone suitable.
