“I’m sorry for denying you the pleasure of my company. It certainly wasn’t my intention. To think I didn’t stop by once. I know that work is no excuse for leaving you with only James for company but it was awfully important.” Mary tilted her head and smiled. “It doesn’t matter anymore though. Four whole days should mean you have loads of gossip for me. Tea?”

[vxvaci]

              ❛  as you should be. and believe me, macs, i was plenty shocked myself —— and hurt. but fine, i suppose there are more important things. but never again, you hear me, mare?  ❜   emerald eyes narrow and a lithe finger lifts, shaking side to side in mock lecture. yet soon enough ( and as always with her dear mary ), a smile blossoms from frigid lips, a giggle bubbling out of frigid lips.   ❛  huh, i should’ve known you just use me for my gossip. but, oh, it pains me so to tell you i’m fresh out. although, if you must know, the incoming first years to hogwarts are quite a batch. a few have already come by ollivanders’, and flying fart, are they noisy. it almost makes the nostalgia dim a bit. —— hmm? oh, well, of course. godric, did those four days really do so much damage?  ❜

“Why would you keep something so dated, Lils? Ew.” She breathed a soft chuckle, the idea of keeping any food that wasn’t in it’s prime completely foreign to her. 

[vxvaci]

              ❛  oi, i —— well, i don’t know, but hey, we’ve all got faults, alright? for example, yours is your shabby attitude, missy.  ❜   a dramatic tone follows her words, coating them in jest and adoration.  ❛  now, are you going to continue to criticize my lifestyle, or will you do me the pleasure of getting away from my fridge and joining me on the couch, hmm?  ❜

The little muggle cafe in downtown London had always been a favorite hideout for James when he needed a quiet place to sit and think, but upon his entrance of the building, he noted a figure he hadn’t expected to see. “Well, well, well, seems someone has finally decided to acknowledge my fantastic, cafe recommendation.” 

[vxvaci]

             ❛  now don’t go all boastful on me, potter. you go on about it so much so, it had to be done simply for my own sanity —— plus it made for a lovely surprise, huh?  ❜   eyebrows quirk in jest as the words sing song out. she pats down the empty seat next to her, lithe fingers tapping in melody against the hard surface in invitation.   ❛  come now, don’t have me begging.   ❜

Marlene grins widely, clasping her hands together under her chin. “See, I knew I could count on you!” She wraps her arms around Lily, smacking a giant kiss to her cheek. 

            ❛  always, love.  ❜   a bounce of laughter bubbled from her lips, nose wrinkled in faux distaste as the firecracker was swarmed by a wave of blonde. in a swift moment lily had taken to wrapping both her arms, coiled, around marlene’s own —— linking them. a breath, a sigh, leaves her, one laced in exhilaration, for it had been a while since her laughs and chuckles and smiles weren’t ones reeking of false hopes and lingering worries.

                             ❛  now, what do ya’ say we go nag the buggers ‘til they say yes, eh?. ❜

[frcgmented]

“What are you on about Lil, I’m sunshine personified.” Mary didn’t like to think about the war. It was easier if she pretended it wasn’t happening, that what she had suffered in school was hardly the beginning of it all. Avoidance, she had found, was the best coping method she had. Instead, she pasted on her very best smile, the one she had practiced so much it almost felt natural. “Yeah. It’s his time of the month you see, and we haven’t quite synced up yet so I’ve sent him away until he’s less of a pain.”

[vxvaci]

             ❛  huh, that you are.  ❜   she paints her lips with a bright smile, her eyebrows arched in badinage.    ❛  tut-tut, what a diva you are.  although, i do wish i could send james off somewhere. be a hell of a lot easier cleaning the flat. ❜   lily wiggles her eyebrows playfully at the girl across from her, a velvety laugh following it.   ❛  still, you know, it’s been almost a whole four days without your lovely face and you already have me begging at your door for more. i’d say you were a great best friend but even sarcasm can’t shake my sorrow. boo on you, mary macdonald. boo on you. ❜  as she hummed in false disappointment, a smile broke out, unable to keep her teasing nature up for long.

“Oh, really, Evans?” Marlene huffs, placing her hands on her hips. “Well, you’re no fun. I see how it is,” she says with a childish pout. She still has a hint of a smile on her face, showing that she’s just playing.

[vxvaci]

              ❛  au contraire, mar, i am plenty fun. and because i’m such a sterling time, i’ll trade you my oh, so precious time in turn for a camellia flower crown, at arrival of the scene. and y'know, a deal with marlene mckinnon is practically a deal with the devil. have faith, mar.  ❜   red locks ricochet in sync with the bobs of her head, and brows quirk, a testament to the “seriousness” of her promise. yet, a smile cracks at her lips, a distinctive signature of her playful nature. still, she means business.

[frcgmented]

“I am so clearly not a loon.” That was all she had. That was all she could say in her own defense. “Thank you though, I suppose.” She stepped aside, eyeing Lily rather suspiciously. “If you’re done insulting me, you can come in.”

[vxvaci]

            ❛  tsk, have a laugh, mare. if we all began to go dour and sour, we’d have squashed out all the happiness in the world. and optimism —— well, we all need a good dose of sunshine right now.  ❜   her lighthearted tone swiftly submerged into something much forlorn, another barging expectation upshot of a war too real, too raw, for a bunch of kids just out of school. still, she managed a smile. one perhaps lacking the essence of anything truly genuine, but a smile nonetheless. no use being grim now. not when a good time with her friend sounded far more appealing. thus, she virtually skipped into the flat, the soles of her heels harping in rhythm, advocating for her optimism.

                      ❛  so, finally chased remus outta the house, have ya’?  ❜

“Listen,” Marlene begins, a huge grin spreading across her ruby red lips. “All I’m saying is that we need to grab everyone, and some alcohol, and go prancing about some fucking flower field. It’s summer, for Merlin’s sake, we need to do something!”

[vxvaci]

               ❛  oi, some of us have lives, mckinnon. we can’t all go prancing about some fucking flower fields, y’know.  ❜   light chuckle rolling off her tongue, a taunting smile paints rose lips like a picture and she throws her head to the left, allowing fervent curls to cascade in miniature ringlets, gestures capturing the jest of her words.

“Oh—— you have the worst timing. Shut up, don’t say anything.” Mary was in a housecoat and curlers and of course there was someone at the door. Remus was out for the evening, and she had decided to relax and have a bath and do her hair and stop for the first time all week. So of course she had a visitor.

                amusement played heavy across lily’s features, luring a tight grin from          within subdued interior, tinge of amber  flame  igniting within emerald eyes.          concerned despite expression, grin thus revamps, offering another, kinder,          smile —— this one laced with principle adoration. ( and a kick of jest. )

                        ❛  er —— sanity aside, you do rock the whole “housecoat and curlers” look, if that helps any. well —— as much as one can, anyway. you still look like a loon —— but a very stylish loon.   ❜
