Oh, I really shouldn’t. My daughter and my husband are waiting for me.

[nottwallflower-blog]

Hey, I'm not holding you here, Andy. 

[bloody-avery]

Better than spending it on five hundred lace doilies to put under teacups for my wedding. Some of the things that we spend money on are just ridiculous. 

[nottwallflower-blog]

Lace doilies, really? Huh, never really thought you’d need them at a wedding. { He offered a small smile. } The wedding planning is going well then?

[mzabini-deactivated20200620]

The whole point of the inside joke is…to have it with someone else. Like me. ( she grins, batting her lashes at him ) That is true - the quiet ones are the ones you need to watch. Are you saying I need to begin watching you closer? Make sure you’re doing everything alright. ( she narrows her eyes, playfully ) I freaked out well into third year, if we’re being honest. But it’s mostly natural now. ( she smiles, nodding ) Yes, the ink is on the inside, no dipping required. They are much more convenient - but I only use them around here, can’t just bring a pen to The Ministry. ( she shrugs ) Yes! Let me live vicariously through your glitz and glamour, thank you. 

[nottwallflower-blog]

Is that so? Maybe I’ll share it with you one day then, just not yet. { He grinned back at her. } Fucking hell, no. Don’t do that, that’d ruin it. I’ve got a good thing going here. { Aneirin replied jokingly before laughing. } Really? Do you think people would kick off if you bought a pen into the ministry? That’s odd, you’d think they have bigger things to concern themselves over than a pen. Bloody psychos, we’re surrounded by them. { he leant his head back. } You’re more than welcome to, I’d swap with you if I could.

“But what if I don’t drink?”

[nottwallflower-blog]

Huh... then I suppose i’m not going to force you to stick around, sweetheart.

[rxsiersss-blog]

You could {He replied swiftl, his smirk spreading as he took a long sip} Yeah, best not to. Probably you’ll be stuck with someone who’ll make you want to kill yourself. {He nods} That’s working out then.

[nottwallflower-blog]

You fucking wish, mate. { He huffed before rolling his eyes. } Probably, it’s a good thing I tolerate a lot of bullshit so I’ll be used to it. { Aneirin smiled. } It’s working out brilliantly. What about you? Stuck with anyone yet?

[magdailiescu-blog]

Sure, in that case. 

[nottwallflower-blog]

An excellent choice. What’s your poison?

[pulchra-anguis]

You look miserable, so not so much. Of course; honestly I could use the break as well, not that I don’t love the staring and the passive aggressive comments, but there’s only so much a woman can take. How’ve you been? Haven’t seen you at Mungo’s lately, so not too bad, I hope.

[nottwallflower-blog]

Miserable huh? Well, you can hardly blame me, these events always have a tendency to catastrophically fry my brain. { He offered a small shrug and a smile. } Lead the way. Yeah, I suppose I've been doing quite well if I’ve managed to avoid myself another visit to Mungos. What about you?

[mxtthitt]

THEY ARE SO CUTE

[headeyy-deactivated20190602]

[mzabini-deactivated20200620]

You are the only one having fun right now, mind you. ( she huffs, crossing her arms over her chest ) That’s where the whole quiet thing works out, huh? Ani, that’s the worst! So you’re just mucking about doing bad boy things and no one expects you because you’re silent. ( she shakes her head ) Okay - I suppose that’s fair. I had no idea. Not a clue this all existed, but now it’s like…I can hardly remember life without magic at all. Of course muggles are interesting - and we’re quite advanced, mind you. I mean the fact that none of you use pens is ridiculous. ( she grins then ) Good, that’s more like it. Don’t ruin the fantasy for me.

[nottwallflower-blog]

I know right? I have my own inside joke with myself. { He nudged her arm cheekily. } That’s exactly it, no one ever suspects me. But you know, they do always say it’s the quiet ones so maybe people should just be more observant. But I'm not complaining, I like getting away with things. { Aneirin nodded. } It’s cool that you settled in, if it were me I think I’d still be freaking out. { He scrunched up his face, trying to remember what a ‘pen’ is. } Those are like a quill that you don’t have to dip in ink, yeah? They actually sound way more convenient. { He nods with a smile. } Alright, I’ll stop ranting and start dressing it up a bit more then. All the glitz and glamour of it instead.

[mzabini-deactivated20200620]

No. You’re not. The whole my working for law enforcement thing…cryptic things put me on edge. ( she shrugged ) I don’t know that. I was under the impression you lot were quite the obedient sort, listened to everything mummy and daddy tell you. ( she raises a brow ) This is true.  I know, I know - life is so hard for shy Ani. ( she rolls her eyes, playfully ) It’s alright, I just - it still baffles me that your sort just don’t…know these books. And know the music we listen to, or the shows we watch on telly. It’s still weird. ( she frowns ) That’s a bummer, it sounded so pretty in the book…

[nottwallflower-blog]

Oh yeah, well that makes sense. I’m still not going to explain myself, that just ruins my fun. { Aneirin smirked. } Now if we all did as we were told then there’d be a lot less drama in our community. The thing is with me, they just think I listen to everything they say, they don’t really know that not quite everything they say goes in. { He laughed. } Well I suppose, but it’s like how you didn’t know about the Wizarding World into you go to Hogwarts, right? Muggles are interesting though, between me and you. { Aneirin gave an entertained smile. } If it makes you happy then the parties are exactly like the ones in that book.

[mzabini-deactivated20200620]

Do I want to even find out? You’re being super cryptic right now.. ( she scrunches her nose a bit ) Probably. Well I notice it, shouldn’t that be enough for you? Or does mummy dearest have to say it for it to be valid? ( she smiles a bit ) I’ve noticed your progress, I mean, look how easy you talk to me now. When we met it was awful. Just single sentences out of you. I’m quite proud. ( she blinks, before shutting her eyes with a sigh ) It’s a book. The Great Gatsby is the title. It’s about a man named Jay Gatsby who throws these lavish parties in his mansion during the summer. He has lots of champagne, and a live orchestra and a swimming pool in his house.

[nottwallflower-blog]

Dunno, it’s really just a thing to find out for yourself. If it happens it happens, if it doesn't then it doesn’t. Am I not allowed to be cryptic? { Aneirin laughed before shaking his head. } No, no, if you say it’s bad then I’ll believe you. I don’t listen to absolutely everything my mother tells me, you know? Life would be fucking dull if I did that. { He nods. } Yeah, I’ve known you ages now though so you’re very easy for me to talk to. I’m just a bit shy is all. { Aneirin nodded attentively before scrunching up his face. } Right! That makes more sense now. Sorry, just not heard about a lot of these muggle books before. I had a very sheltered upbringing. But no, I think we try to throw said ‘lavish’ parties but really they’re just very artificial and pretentious, which is a sickening combination. 

[rxsiersss-blog]

Nice to know. Just as long as everyone else knows to {He rolled his eyes but didn’t push further} Well you’ve got a point there but who knows, maybe you’ll be lucky or something. {He nods} So anyone your mother likes then? 

[nottwallflower-blog]

Fuck you. { Aneirin snapped back at him before taking another sip of his beer. } Fingers crossed. Still, I’m not getting my hopes up. { He shrugged. } No, I don’t think so. My mother’s expectations are set pretty high at the moment, which I'm not really complaining about. 

[drownerrs]

@yeezus_chri5t:  When Matt makes your moms day better than you…@mattxhitt x

[rxsiersss-blog]

So it’s either not noticing or using you as a punching bag? {He raised an eyebrow, laughing slightly} Nice. {Evan shrugged} Sounds like a shit excuse. The upbringing is what it is. Maybe those girls need to quit whining and using that as an excuse. {he took a long sip} I die a small death every time I have to sit through one of those dinners. 

[nottwallflower-blog]

I’m no ones fucking punching bag, back off Rosier. { He shrugged. } Sure but it’s the only excuse I can come up with. When you find a pureblood girl that doesn’t whine, tell me. They all bloody whine, it’s exhausting. { Aneirin smiled with a small nod. } Don’t we all? 

[mzabini-deactivated20200620]

What kind of special occasions? ( she raised a brow, curiously ) I am not exaggerating! She probably hasn’t said anything because you’ve been doing it so long, it looks normal now. ( she pouts a bit ) That’s…pretty shitty, honestly. Well, obviously I have no idea, I don’t know what a ball ache feels like. ( she rolled her eyes before her lips quirked up, cheekily ) Small talk is my least favorite, it makes me cringe. Like i feel weird just thinking of it. ( she shrugs ) At least the parties are fun, right? I imagine they look like the ones F. Scott Fitzgerald described in The Great Gatsby. 

[nottwallflower-blog]

Sorry, can’t tell you. It’s something you have to find out for yourself. { He smiled back at her simply. } No she’d definitely notice, it’d make me look bad so she’d notice. { Aneirin nodded. } It’s really fucking shitty. Best to just got on with it though, otherwise it’d just get really fucking depressing. { He laughed. } Yeah, it’s one of my least favourite things to do too. I’m getting better at it now, I used to be completely hopeless. Almost everyone’s mum loves me so i’m doing something right. { He tilted his head in confusion. } What’s a gatsby?... and why is it so great?
