Hello. I am now the proud renter of a flat

Why are you going to work for muggles? Why not a wizarding shop on Diagon?

[swanchang]

A Muggle store was a last resort, sort of. The apothecary hasn't let me know yet. Or the Quidditch shop. Or Flourish and Blotts. You get the idea. I can't stay in limbo very long.

If you're by the Cauldron, then it's completely impossible that we're that far apart.

[swanchang]

We're not, I'm sure.

[goddesspatil]

Then you should come over. Preferably for dinner. Roger's over a lot, we could do things in vaugely Ravenclaw ways.

[swanchang]

Which sounds like more fun than attempting to cook and blowing myself up to kingdom come.

Muggles?

[swanchang]

Apparently five pounds can buy more than one Galleon.

[diggoryamos]

er well if it's money you need Cho, you know there are plenty of us who would rather fill your purse than have you work with muggles if you don't want to?

[swanchang]

Oh no, Mr Diggory, I couldn't.

Muggles aren't that bad, honestly. All of Mum and Dad's friends are Muggles and even without the magic, they're not so bad.

im very impressed youre going into the muggle world. most younger wizards arent strong enough to get through the...interesting...muggle madness. but its worth it, let me assure you. ive been living mostly in the muggle world for the past 20 odd years.

[swanchang]

I know. My parents have lived mostly like Muggles for, well, as long as I can remember. Magic's for things like chores and the like. And turning my tiny closet into a walk in.

I like my flat. All my friends have gotten wizarding flats and have things growing in their sink that talk to them and floorboards that scream when they step on them, and luckily, there's nothing like that here. Just some spiders.

If you need a reference or anything, my Mum's done some translating work for muggle publishing houses, so she could write you one. Provided she remembers you, but I think she would.

[seventhdaughter]

I'm surprised the wizarding places haven't let you know yet! Shall I send them Howlers for you?

[swanchang]

Now that'll be a nice incentive for them to hire me. Hah. Thank you for the offer.

[seventhdaughter]

I suppose it might be counter-productive.

Ice cream perhaps, then?

[swanchang]

Can you Apparate, little miss? I don't think it matters. I can meet you there in about ten minutes, if you want?
