Hey, wait, what?!
Nu-uh. That's not what Lottie meant AT ALL, she was trying to state that it would never happen because BOTH would have to be in the same place, and she didn't see that happening. No. "Nope, it was not an idea," so don't get any, Lex. However, the Hogwartian had a sense that Lex's head was already full with ideas. Yeah, we're EXTREMELY glad. Not. "And it's not happening." Maybe in 10 years.
Oh, so Lex knew about the current situation. Lottie thought she was oblivious to it all, since she'd failed to speak about that. But yes, the current situation in which Lottie told Aidan never to speak to her again. "Yeah." Exactly.
Next thing, Lottie was laughing. Lex, talking nicely to Garrick, she did not see that happening ever. There's no way to know if the sudden smile on her face was thanks to the mention of his name, or the fact that Lex had amused her. "I agree with you on that," unless her words lead to an apology. They were past that point now, so it would do no good.
BEAM. No need for potions, it was excellent. The best drink ever. They needed to come up with one for the summer. A cold one. Preferable involving lemon. They could ask Alice to share some thoughts. "The day you decide to try it again, keep the potion at hand, yeah?" Juuuust in case.
Got it. We know what you mean, Lex. "Then we'll be having it again, since we won't be dying anytime soon," seriously, though, Milton was the one always close to passing, not them. "Unless we make one drink for summer...," she said, drinking a bit more of the raspberry-chocolate mix.
There was logic in what she said, a whole bunch of logic. That didn't change the fact that she would have preferred having magic in the summer months too. Amanda, admittedly, wasn't as dumb as she thought her to be. The woman
knew no hexing would happen and got real cheeky about it when her father wasn't around.
She would have stated this view aloud but then the Gryffindor was thoroughly distracted by the look on Lottie's face.
"You know Lottie, even though we know that I don't like lying, I wouldn't mind you lying to me every now and then about things like this. Give me false hope, it's three years away, I'm bound to forget by then." And there would be no harm done! See how that works! With this.
Only this. Lex would always hate lying in general but obvious things like this were okay because she'd be able to tell and go along with it, not because of deception but for the fun of it.
She gave a solemn nod to that.
"It's very good of you, very grown up 14 year old like." She said, losing the serious expression for a much more amused one. Of course she knew about the argument...she just...didn't think she would have been able to have much say considering certain other things that happened. Ahem.
Would you look at that. Lottie agreed. Lex was at her most polite when she wasn't around things and people that made her rude. Made sense, yeah?
....
"But, that would mean putting it off 'til a later day because I don't have the potion on me...AndIDon'tRememberTheIngredientsIUsed." Cough. That might have been a part of the problem too when she thought about it.
Lex thought that last bit over.
"We could do that, make another and have this to start the term then the other to end it--like a tradition! Something else that'll be completely exclusive." Just in case Lottie got ideas for summer meetings with a certain someone
oh hey we're talking about Garrick again to have drinks.
