Varius was thrilled and that was an understatement. He had been sure he would have to have gone through some ridicule for falling for a ghost, but Celandine seemed excited by the idea! Confirming even more to Varius that he most definitely had made the right choice in owling her.

Nodding enthusiastically, he reached out and tickled the little pair on the portrait. The passageway to the kitchen revealed itself and Varius held out his arm for Celandine to link with if she was so inclined (girls liked that too, right? To be all clingy on boys' arms). "I just hope they have enough... flour that is."
