She flipped the collar of her jacket up to look even more mysterious. The other patrons got an eyeball - at least two professors in the place, plus Max with some girl she didn't recognize. Vivi put her finger against her grinning!mustache mouth to shush Max and co. She was incognito, in spite of her obviously bright blond hair and blue eyes.

He wasn't even privy to much if anything just hoped it didn't go too crazy. Selina he knew could go overboard...the lost bat flyers and her pushing of them on people was just on example...would the Ravenclaw be just as bad, less or worst?

However when his girlfriend had told him to meet them both at the Hogs Head , he figured that what was up might just be revealed to him. His curiousity was beginning to get the better of him. So the seventh year made sure to make his way towards the pub around the appropriate time. And in keeping with the Holmes and Watson thing the two girls had going, Gideon had added his transfigured deerstalker from last term upon his curls. The boy wearing it as he slipped into the darkly kept pub.

"We're the first. Nice hat! I haven't figured out who you can be yet, since Sherlock and Watson are taken. Have a seat, and I'll get us drinks so the guy doesn't chuck us out for just taking up space. What do you want?"

Having looked around for familiar faces, Gideon soon spotted Vivi giving him attention and motioning for him to join her. "Thank ye. Figured it fit the scheme of things when I spotted it in my trunk. A throwback from last terms transfiguration lesson." Who he was...that was an interesting thought. What character from the stories could he portray in this whole crazy idea? Well if ye couldn't beat them, ye joined them and it wasn't like he was unfamiliar with the stories.

"Perhaps Lestrade?...and butterbeer will be fine." He might be legal to drink anything else but wasn't about to get into that sort of thing while surrounded by fellow students. That and past experiences made him vary.

And then they were joined by Vickers, the Ravenclaw slipping into their booth without so many words. Was he part of the plan? Gideon simply nodded politely in greeting as he sat quietly. "Thanks," was all he gave however at the shave comment, he couldn't help but bite back a laugh. That would be an amusing conversation to say the least.



-------------------------------------------

Simon had been a little taken aback by Selina's owl. While they had in fact been passing the occasional letter between them of a friendly nature, he had never expected one asking for his help. A missing beater bat...now that was a new request for MLE. Having found out about a Hogsmeade weekend upcoming, the YATI had made plans to visit the village, figuring to try and catch the redhead in person.

Easier said then done.

Even given Selina's....radiant personality and appearance Simon had failed so far, the twenty-something wandered into the Hogs Head on the off-chance someone he knew was there.

Alright so there was this message he thought was for Milton's directing him to get to the Hogs Head. The Hogs Head with its reputation had him dressing a bit "sensibly"-- no school robes or casual jeans-- in fact he was all in black, from his pulled up hoodie to his baggy pants all the way down to his shoes.

... he probably looked like some kind of junior Dementor except just not as freaky...

He nudged the front door open and peered in-- it really wasnt that bad. It wasnt the Three Broomsticks either but hey at least his OCD wouldnt be kicking and screaming when he takes a seat.

So there he was being all incognito, creeping quietly close to the walls and avoiding walking through the center of the shop. The less people see of his lanky self the bett-- oh HEY Hello Professor Schirmer!!! With Professor Scabior??!? Oh hey look theres Ellie!!!

Is he waving hello? So much for incognito...

But for all his new found excitement at the former Hogwartians he finally spotted that shock of pale blonde hair sitting at the corner. He slipped into the booth quickly and realized a few things-- Gideon was there with his deerstalker hat, of which the Gryffindor got a "Nice hat" compliment, and now that Vickers can fully see the Ravenclaw blonde's face the Nice mustache statement kinda got caught in his throat. He hovered his fingers over his own upper lip but with his eyes still on Vivi he murmured "I hope this isnt about you asking us guys how to shave."

Oh well, he had to be a little more formal at the office and right now he was on his vacation time, so all bets were off as it were. He was going to be like Devil's Snare and stretch out.

Taking one more loooooooooong sip from his firewhiskey, Aron somewhat slammed the mug on the table and met Seren's gaze. "Well...I was thinking...you know the day at the fountain? When you finally allowed me to stop chasing you?" he asked as he reached out and took one of her hands in his. Besides her accepting the ring she had on her finger from him, that day and the way her smile had caught the afternoon son, were two of the best moments of his life. "I thought that that day, July 21st, would be best. It marked our relationship finally coming to bloom."

And WHY did he suddenly feel like a teenage boy asking a girl to the Yule Ball? He really was a shrivel fig.

Hog's Head? Really?

Kurumi's stomach was already in knots thanks to a CERTAIN former Gryffindor showing up in Hogsmeade. Running her fingers through her hair and accidentally pulling a few strands of it out in aggravation, Kurumi pushed open the door and somewhat glared at the bell as it announced her arrival. Trying to ignore its cheery tone for the time being, Kurumi scanned the area looking for Selina. Whatever it was her best friend had called her here for...it was really REALLY important. Or seemed to be that way at least. The Quidditch captain had all but been in tears that morning when she had asked Kurumi to meet her in the afternoon.

Either that...or Selina just really REALLY liked the butterbeer here more than she did at the Three Broomsticks.

Only Kurumi didn't see Selina...but instead Vivi, Vickers, and Gideon all at the same table. Coincidence? Most likely not. Only one way to find out though... Kurumi walked up to the trio and chewed on her lower lip for just a moment. "Selina?" she asked. Because that really did sum it all up, right?


....why were Vivi and Gideon....dressed up? Had she missed something?


The redhead had spent all morning preparing for this meeting today with Genevieve. They had been meeting in secret and exchanging hats for weeks, which all lead up to this moment. The countless hours of discussing a game plan to find her beater bat, Mortimer, would all amount to this. Selina and Genevieve had each gotten together their speciality team together that would help them execute the master plan. On Selina's side she had Gideon, Kurumi, Tag, Penelope, Alice and Anya. For Genevieve it was Vickers. All-in-all it was a shifty, smart group. Well, Kurumi wasn't shifty, but she brought the cookies, which was important to ANY SUPER SPY group.

Walking slowly into Hog's Head, the sixth year tried her hardest to blend in. She did not want anyone thinking that she was up to no good, it would just make their entire plan crumble. So tipping her hat down a little like those old muggle movies from the early twentieth century, she stuck her hands in her pocket and shiftily creeped over to the table where she saw Genevieve was sitting. She did not even notice any of the other who had gathered there. Instead, she just slipped into the booth and leaned against Vivi. Looking down at the table she said, "I'm here for the thing... you know what I mean...?" That sounded like a spy right.

It was then, though, she heard other voices. Lifting her head up and completely dropping her super sleuth routine, she saw that Gideon and Vickers were there. A smile flashed on her face, "Oh hello there! Vickers... Gideon. Nice hat!" It was a rather jolly looking hat, wasn't it?

Then she saw Kurumi across the room looking around rather curiously, she waved her friend down and yelled, "OI! HOLLINGBERRY! OVER HERE!" Because they were, after all, over here. Turning back to Genevieve she said, "Oh and the munchins should be here soon."
