[From here]

Of course I'm right.

We'd have to talk that out but we'd have to be sure to use silencing charms to their full extent if there is company over.

Oh, is that the word for it? Adore? I suppose I do.

Nevermind. I take it back. You're definitely not that right.

You and your silencing charms. You're precious. There's so many other ways to handle things.

Suppose? Really? I'm hurt.

Nope. Can't take it back.

Oh? And will you tell me all these other ways to handle things? Or do they include orgies? Because that one I'll have to think about, depending on the company.

You know I adore you.

I can take back everything, sorry. Magic has it's privileges.

I was speaking about setting each room on a permanent charm of silence but lets talk more orgies.

And yet you're mean, because you don't even truly mean it about an orgy.

Rude.

Well, when you put it that way, I much prefer the permanent charm of silence.

I mean, depending on the others in said orgy, I could be persuaded.

[Look, she survived a war, ok? She can live a bit now!]

That's my middle name, you know. Elia Rude Tiam. My parents had a thing for four letter words.

I know just the charm. Easily invoked. Don't want it all the time. In case you get old and fall and can't get up.

Do you think I would have people there you wouldn't be interested in?

Oh yeah? It does have a nice ring to it.

It's cute that you think it couldn't happen before then! You underestimate my ability or my magic's ability to make a mess of things.

Hmm, you make a fair point.

My parents understood me early, what can I say?

Well fine. If you're going to be logical and klutzy, that's not my fault. But way more fun.

Good. I always make good points.

I take that back. You don't make good points. Ever!

I'm thinking Indian and drinks tonight. You free?

All the time. It's why it hurts you. Sorry, I don't make the rules.

I'm thinking that sounds perfect. Count me in.

[Cassie snorted in amusement and rolled her eyes.]

Uh huh, sure. I wouldn't say ALL the time.

Maybe sometimes.

Great - you want your norm? I'll pick it up on my way home from training.

Of course YOU wouldn't. That doesn't make it less right though.

You're a good kid. Good. I'll have a fire going and we'll have a nice drink to wash it all away.

Who are you calling a kid? You're only... a couple of years older than me!

Perfect. I'm really looking forward to it. Then you can let me know if you plan to move in or not.

[And even if he didn't, he knew he was always welcome at her place. Even if he was a blanket hog!]

A couple maybe in dog years.

Do not call me a dog just because I called myself a dog.

If I show up with a bag, I am. Fair enough?

I wouldn't dream of it.

Fair. Even if you don't, you know you're always welcome.

[continued from here]

Who knew fishing was so smelly!

I've been told we should try skiing or this thing they call snowboarding one day!

We tried and we learned though, darling, that's what counts!

Snowboarding looks quite dangerous, but I'll reserve judgement until I see it in action for myself. A snowy holiday it is!

[He liked that unlike many of his peers, especially those in Slytherin, they tried different things in the muggle world. Although neither of them cared for fishing, they can say they tried it!]

You're right about that.

It does, which means that it could be a lot of fun!

Which means we can also make those 'smores things again, yeah?

[Because clearly the boy still thinks with his stomach!]

You know darling, Remus taught me a wonderful fire charm, you can make smores anywhere with it.

...why didn't I ever think of that?!

You're brilliant!

Thank you, Mum. Honestly, Herbology has been one of the last things on my mind recently. But, I am asking for help so there's progress!

Yeah, he is seriously the best in our class.

[And was she facepalming at the mention of being a cute baby? Definitely!]

If nothing else, being good with Herbology has the added benefit of being able to hide in the greenhouses whenever you need a moment. Not that I ever did that or think you or anyone else might need to sometimes.

It's good to hear he's not still a baby.

[ As a single parent, it is up to Lily to make dad jokes. ]

You raise a very good point and that is something good to keep in mind. It's handy even.

[And Cassie is DEFINITELY facepalming now!]

You can't see it but I'm definitely facepalming. No, he's definitely not a baby.

I did quite a good deal of homework in the Boathouse's tower when I was there. That castle is full of excellent spots to hide.

You ought to bring him round sometime!

Well hopefully it hasn't turned into a makeout spot for my generation!

[Because having a spot that's quiet for homework or some alone time would be nice. Also. The response from her Mum makes her... flush?]

Oh yeah, I'll see if he's free uh next Hogsmeade weekend.

Unless you inviting him to visit might come across as A Thing that you might not want it to, I can wait until your next Quidditch match to see the far taller Neville Longbottom if so.

[ She saw that 'uh' Cassie. ]

I mean.

Would it come across as A Thing? Meeting my mum?

I feel clueless!

The Quidditch match is sooner than Hogsmeade so that would be good! A good first meeting that isn't specifically a 'meet my mum'-thing.

Mum!

[The texts come quickly. As much as she really liked Neville, and she wanted him to meet Lily because her Mum was amazing. She wasn't sure if that was moving quickly. It wasn't like they were actually dating though she was quickly realizing she wouldn't be opposed to said dating if it happened!]

Oh no Cassie I'm sorry, I think by asking questions to try and avert awkwardness I've caused awkwardness!

I'm sorry! As I recall meeting anyone's parents is daunting and it would only come off as A Thing if you were already seeing each other, if he's just a mate I don't think anyone can read into anything.

[ Oh no she's made it awkward and she's supposed to be the adult in the room. ]

Oh, oh good. Okay. That's good.

First, Quidditch. We're up against Slytherin next so it'll be a great match. And then I can introduce you to him, so long as you don't make the ref mad. ;)

[Not that she didn't disagree with her Mum when she did argue with him. And despite everything, she didn't want to make anything awkward with Neville!]

If the ref isn't a blind wanker I will not make him mad. It's quite simple.

[She couldn't help it, Cassie burst out laughing at the response. Really, was it any wonder where her attitude and sass came from?]

Have I told you recently how much I love you?

And with that said, I agree. Lee Jordan also tends to agree with you too it sounds like.

I love his commentary, next match I'm going to try and sit by him.

Be careful, he might pull you in to be his co-commentator.

[Continued from here!

Thanks, Shelby. I appreciate the offer.

To be honest, it's been nice... and at the same time, really hard being back. It's refreshing how much has changed and how much hasn't.

HAH! That's a good point. He is a much better conversationalist and a great cook.

And he reaches things on high shelves.

Change is hard. I go through it every offseason, when drivers come and they go. Two people moved on this winter, including one of my childhood friends. Another guy is coming back. It's emotional and it never gets any easier.

You just learn to roll with the punches, and help others when you can.

Oh yeah, you can't let that one getaway!

Change is hard and knowing you're not going to see friends as often as you once did is even harder sometimes.

That's a very good point. You'd think after everything I've been through, somethings would just be a nonstarter. But I've found it's the smallest things that are the hardest.

I'm never good with saying goodbye. I hate leaving and I hate being left. Probably comes from my mother leaving me.

Did you find whatever you set out to look for?

I get that. I dealt with much the same with my mom died and then when they died.

I wasn't really sure what I was on the search for when I came back but I have found a couple of somethings since I've been back. I'll probably stick around for a bit longer.

Have you started up training again?

Next week. They pushed back the start of the season a month to mid-April.

I'm glad it's going well for you. Sometimes you have to get away for a while so you can find yourself. I didn't find myself until I spent the year living and working in a garage.

Are you excited to get back to it?

I don't know much about cars but I would think it'd be interesting to work in a garage.

It's true though, you're right about that. The holidays were a bit hard... harder than I had anticipated them being compared to years past but I'm okay. I'm working on it and I guess that's better than... not working on it.

Always.

Keep working at it. Sometimes it can take months or years. Peter and I didn't repair our relationship completely until we became teammates, and even then it took a few more years until we felt comfortable again.

Have you seen anything fun out there?

At this point, there isn't any other option but to move forward. But, I did spend the holidays with Adonis, my... I guess best friend. We've always had a rocky friendship in the past but considering we're the two left, we've grown close. He feeds me so it's a good friendship.

New Orleans is always a fun place if you haven't been. Especially during this time of year. If you get time, you should really come down.
