Date: 17 October 1999 Characters: Dean Thomas, Seamus Finnigan Location: Hog's Head Status: Semi-Public Summary: Dean and Seamus get drinks. On a Tuesday. That's right. Completion: Incomplete
"Keep your knickers on straight!" Dean called back, waving his wand over his palette to get rid of the last of the paint so it wouldn't be dry and crusty by the time he got home.
He stepped back and looked at his work, at the long-neglected painting of George that he'd had tucked away, and managed half of a smile. It wasn't finished yet, but he was working on it again. That was something, anyway.
Pulling on a jacket, Dean trotted down the stairs, resisting the urge to take them two at a time. "Whose turn is it to buy Floo Powder, anyway?"
Seamus punched Dean in the shoulder as Dean joined him at the fireplace. "Don't worry about my knickers."
He wondered if he should've grabbed a jacket too, but soon enough he'd be plenty warm. "Fuck if I know," he said with a shrug. "I'll pick some up next time, if I think about it though. For now, let's go." He tossed the powder into the floo and stepped through first, straightening up in the Hog's Head. They'd not been here since they'd done the painting.
"Maybe someone should be," Dean said, punching him back.
He chuckled at Seamus's hurry as they stepped through the Floo. He'd really only been painting most of the day, but he couldn't say a trip to the pub was an unwelcome way to spend the evening.
"Well, if we're gonna do it, we might as well do it right. Beer first, of course," he said, winding through the tables up to the bar.
"Nah, mate, beer before liquor makes you sicker," Seamus said. "Think that's how it goes, anyway. Still we're stickin' to beer for tonight anyway, so we should be good."
He joined Dean at the bar and held up two fingers, signaling for the first round. "How's it goin', then? I know I wasn't even home from work long before I dragged you out."

"Want to head to the bar, or grab a table, then?"
