"I don't want any arguments about your candy probation. Look at it as long as you want if it doesn't drive you too crazy." She reached for her bag and fished out a small bonbon. "There you go, sweetie." It was big enough in Louisa's wise eyes, as big as Lex's thumb.

Then came a non-stop five-minute of rambling. Louisa wanted to yawn at one point but held it in, there was NO way Vivi was going to appear the friendlier mom friend today. Louisa was friendly too... in her own way. She DID roll her eyes at certain points, and was very grateful that Vivi did the guiding part. "Honestly, I think you're being too co-dependent on others, Lex. Don't wait for anyone to make that boring place a fun. Who cares if people are annoying in there? You can always replace their soaps with frog-spawn ones, or mince some hiccuping sweets into their breakfast, or I dunno. Stop complaining is what I mean." If this lioness was going to turn out to be ANOTHER co-dependent girl, Louisa was going to... get mad. "Her brother doesn't sound rude, actually. He's just a minion." Oh. "No offense." She said to Vivi, genuinely for the first time in this hour. "Odessas, man, they're evil folks." Her point was just being proven over and over again.

ANYWAYS.

"I've had a long day at home, I want to drink something." She gazed down at the menu again.

Because then THAT would happen! She looked up at Vivi withh wide eyes. "Whaaaaat? No. Don't listen to her! There's no candy probation--it's...it's a myth! Completely made up and unrealistic in every sense of the word.PleaseDon'tStopSendingMeChocolateFrogs!!!" They were all she had to look forward to!! >______<

There had to be some way of steering this conversation away from her not eating candy. She was about to change the subject when Louisa went into her bag. CANDY??

....

.........

She raised an eyebrow at the pathetic attempt at humour. It didn't even warrant a half smile so she simply scowled. It had been WEEKS okay so a week and two days since she devoured an entire bag of candy, now she was getting her hopes up for the candy shopping spree and all Louisa chose to give her was a small bonbon. No. Just now. The scowl prevailed. "Not looking at the candy will make me even more mad and that is NOT what we agreed on so you will be breaking your promise. I want to be taken to the candy store where I can have any and everything on the shelves." Oh but while they were on this promise thing. She turned to each girl with a curious look before asking Louisa. "Why were you looking at Vivi like that just now? Did she break a promise? If it's a candy promise then I apologize but she can only commit her candy to me, so..." Just forget about it and move on?

She nodded at what her Mama Vivi said next. "I am, very much I am. It's just not the same anymore and I made the team on luck. Pure luck and nothing else." She was sure of it, especially after the last game.

"And I don't mind socially awkward people--West is your cousin????" Ew. "On second thought...send me a puppy." That could work too. "A girl puppy." Because now she needed to be specific seeing as Vivi just said all boys were idiots. Something that was rather common knowledge but it just became a FACT the moment Vivi said it.

Then Louisa went saying more things that made her frown. "I am not. I do what I can and get in trouble for it. Just about everything fun is against the bloody rules." She muttered, but only because it was true. Lex paused for a minute and listened to her go on. The frown began disappearing. "HEY! That's a great idea! I can think of a few people who deserve it too!" Now Louisa was being more helpful than hurtful. Progress.

"He is, very much. I don't like brainless people."

Lex grabbed for her own menu when she saw Louisa looking at hers then handed the other to Vivi. "I want butterbeer and chocolate chip cookies." A well balanced meal that had chocolate. What more could she want? "What will you have?"


So that was that. Louisa was definitely not over things, and her snarky little comments rankled at Vivi. Vivi, who had NEVER lied during the whole mess last term, and who was here because Louisa had invited her personally. Merlin, was it some sort of messed up game with her? "You're of age. Order whatever you want off the menu," Vivi shrugged and made a vague gesture with one hand. It wasn't like Louisa needed their permission.

"But I'll thank you both not to talk about Mo like that. I'm allowed to make fun of him, but he's mine. He isn't a minion and he isn't stupid. He's loyal and clever and kind." And he was hers. As were West and Aspen, so Louisa should bite her tongue.

She turned her attention to Lex and settled her features. "She wasn't looking any way at me, Lex. You're being awfully paranoid. I've never broken a promise to Louisa or anyone. But let's move on and talk about candy. You must have done something if they're ganging up on you about it. Did you get into trouble?" Because it wasn't like Lex's metabolism wasn't taking very very good care of all that sugar.
