Hi!

[charlietooker]

….I just don’t wanna cause any trouble, okay? It’s a nice day, you’re all about to play quidditch. Maybe I’ll try talking to her again since she doesn’t play either.

[firewhiskeyannabelle]

You're not causing trouble. That's a good idea.

[firewhiskeyannabelle]

Hi!

[charlietooker]

…Yeah, I know. Just - either way. It’s fine.

[firewhiskeyannabelle]

...Okay. ....No it's not, but alright.

[firewhiskeyannabelle]

Hi!

[charlietooker]

…Ann, it’s fine, really. She can think what she wants.

[firewhiskeyannabelle]

We don't know that she actually thinks that way, Charlie.

[firewhiskeyannabelle]

Hi!

[charlietooker]

…….What? …Bloody hell. I…no, it’s…it’s alright.

[firewhiskeyannabelle]

Yeah. ...No, we'll talk to her. If you're right and she does have a problem then that needs to be sorted.

[firewhiskeyannabelle]

Hi!

[charlietooker]

…I dunno. I sort of got the impression she’s got a problem with squibs. And muggles.

[firewhiskeyannabelle]

What? Oh...I....I don't think she would. And I'm sure she doesn't have a problem with muggles. She's just.... Her and Freddie were raised in Death Eater families. Fabian and Gid helped Freddie run away because he didn't want to be one. Then they helped him rescue Vi. Freddie lived with us for a while before he had a chance to get Vi so he's a little more adjusted. But they both still react to things oddly at times. Sometimes Vi tells us things about what it was like in school for them and I just- ...Melia and I can talk to her and find out if she does have an issue with squibs and if she does we'll fix that.

[firewhiskeyannabelle]

Hi!

[charlietooker]

…Is she? …I sort of felt like she was the one with the problem.

[firewhiskeyannabelle]

Problem, what do you mean?

[firewhiskeyannabelle]

Hi!

[charlietooker]

Thanks. …Ha! No, probably not. Thanks. …Oh um….yeah. I met her.

[firewhiskeyannabelle]

Oh good. ....Did you not like her? I know she can be a little cool at first but she's very sweet once you get past that.

[firewhiskeyannabelle]

Hi!

[charlietooker]

Oh - hi, Ann. Yeah, I am, it’s nice - though I’ve no idea where my boyfriend just disappeared to.

[firewhiskeyannabelle]

Oh good, I'm glad. ...Ha! Who knows. I'm sure he'll be back soon. Can't be anything too good only three of them left. I'm so happy you came. Have you met Vi yet? She doesn't have many friends right now. Melia and I are it, I think. So we have to introduce you.

[firewhiskeyannabelle]

Hi!

Enjoying the party?

[firewhiskeyannabelle]

Hey, Charlie.

[charlietooker]

…Ann…that’s really sweet but I don’t think I feel much like playing. …How ‘bout we just go for a run?

[firewhiskeyannabelle]

Sure, why not. I probably should exercise more.

[firewhiskeyannabelle]

Hey, Charlie.

[charlietooker]

….I dunno. Maybe.

[firewhiskeyannabelle]

...Let's try. ...You can beat me at football.

[firewhiskeyannabelle]

Hey, Charlie.

[charlietooker]

….I guess not.

[firewhiskeyannabelle]

...Maybe we can find something to help take your mind off it?

[firewhiskeyannabelle]

Hey, Charlie.

[charlietooker]

….He definitely didn’t think it was a good thing.

[firewhiskeyannabelle]

...Please try not to think worse case yet. Wait till you two talk, you don't know what might happen.

[firewhiskeyannabelle]

Hey, Charlie.

[charlietooker]

….I shouldn’t have said anything. I just…I dunno. I didn’t expect anything from him but I thought we were at a point where he’d…I dunno…at least not think it was a bad thing…

[firewhiskeyannabelle]

.....Charlie, you don't know that. He might not have.

[firewhiskeyannabelle]

Hey, Charlie.

[charlietooker]

…I don’t get what’s so hard to figure out.

[firewhiskeyannabelle]

...I dunno, love scares some blokes.

[firewhiskeyannabelle]

Hey, Charlie.

[charlietooker]

….Yeah. Maybe.

[firewhiskeyannabelle]

...Maybe he just has to figure things out.

[firewhiskeyannabelle]

Hey, Charlie.

[charlietooker]

….He said he wanted to talk to me once he’s out of the hospital. I don’t know why he didn’t just go ahead and break up with me there, though.

[firewhiskeyannabelle]

Maybe because he's not gonna break up with you. Max doesn't seem the type to drag something like that out.
