| | Three Broomsticks The Three Broomsticks is the most well-known pub in the small village, which is why it is often rather crowded with students and adults alike. The outside of the building is a good preview of what the inside may look like with the same steep roof as the surrounding buildings, yet taller, with a sign on it's facade featuring the legendary three boomsticks, all fixed around a lantern to light the patrons' way. It certainly looks better kept than the Hog's Head down the street.
Once you enter the pub, the warmth of the large stone fireplace great you as you place hats and coats by the door. Directly in front of you there are tables and booths lining the majority of the small hall with oil lamps placed on each one. On winter days it is usually hard to find a place beside the large fire grate; however, if you're early enough, you can bet your galleons that you'll be nice and toasty by the fire. To the left is the bar where the bartender waits to take your order. |

Well..
Anyways.. "I'm doing good actually, being at Hogwarts is pretty much like a dream come true, and that library.." It was like heaven to him, even after his job at Cambridge.. Hogwarts was still where his heart lay. "And how are you doing Imogen?" He asked curiously as he tilted his head as she spoke of why they hadn't met sooner. "It's no worries honestly, I'm just glad that we can meet now." He said as he smiled warmly at her, his green eyes twinkling a little.. "Always the Flatterer aren't you? But, yes it would have been fun to work together,,
Ahh well." He said as he motioned to a table.. "Shall we sit?" He asked as she spoke of her girls.. "Well, I shall have to make time to see them, perhaps this summer? They can thank me in person then?" He asked as the door opened and he automatically turned his gaze towards it to see Louise enter..
Ahh..
A smile was sent her way before he turned back to his companion.. Was she making him nervous? Imogen wondered if she had said something that made him feel uncomfortable. Right. He’s just a friend Imogen, don’t make him feel awkward she scolded herself mentally for a moment as she looked at him and then paused…she’d brought up Hogwarts. He must have been thinking of her, of Serena. The thought just made Imogen’s heart pang for him and she wanted to give her friend the biggest hug that she could muster, but she didn’t.
She gave him space.
She wasn’t going to simply thrust her arms around him at the slightest flicker of pain in his eyes. She knew how he felt, she had been there, she was sure that it was all fun being with what had to be the old gang. ”I will forever envy the library at Hogwarts” Imogen meant every word. She had always been a book lover. Oh…what had she been up to? ”oh me? Pfft, well…that is a good question” she grinned, ”Oh I’m working with the Wizarding University of London’s Archeology department as the Archivist for their museum” she smiled happily, ”its great, I get to spend so much more time with the girls and with old magical things” old magical things was probably the easiest way to describe the variety of things she found at work…like the Mesopotamian cauldron she had had to carefully send to the Wizarding University of Crete. Even as she answered Imogen just smiled at him, it was adorable how he still tilted his head whenever asking questions like that.
When Kalen commented about her compliment all Imogen did was wave her hand loosely in front of her face as if trying to brush away his comment ”oh come on you know me…it would be a sad sad day if I stopped trying to compliment my dearest of friends” really. Imogen had always been that girl, the one that saw her friend on a date and would want to run up and hug both the date and the friend and compliment them on their…well, everything. She never did act on that urge. ”right, we probably should,” she grinned as she looked back at the door and the girl walking through – she was rather young…and seemed to be quite the confident one. Imogen however did glance over to Ros when she walked into the shop the History of Magic Professor and her former workmate did get a slight head nod and smile in her direction before Imogen returned her attention to Kalen. ”I see some of the booths in the back are less…crowded?”

Had it been Christmas, or Hallowe'en, or his birthday, then everyone would know that he knew about it. Call him self-centred, shallow, or dense - it was accurate.
Stepping into the Three Broomsticks and out of the cold, he pulled his scarf from around his neck, grabbed a Butterbeer and surveyed the rather busy room. Spotting Scarlett, he grinned and headed over, pulling the stool next to her out so as not to disturb her feet.
"Afternoon."

"Afternoon." Scarlett knew Corbin was going to end up here the second she saw him walk in. She wasn't surprised that he was alone today - this definitely didn't seem like the kind of holiday he would celebrate. Probably one he actively avoided. Scarlett was surprised she herself was so...cool with today after all the drama with Jimmy last summer. "Hello. Surprised you wanted to come in here and be surrounded by all the happy couples on this LOVELY day," she teased him, gesturing to the decorations and the occasionally couple strewn about the pub.

"Surpris.....?" Corbin's face was full of surprise as it dawned on him that it was his Dad's birthday. He'd completely forgotten, and made a mental note to run by the post office and send something before he headed back to the Castle. Brow furred, he shook his head and tore his gaze easily from the snogging couples and the paper hearts back to Scarlett's face, and the reason she'd pointed it out.
Because, duh, she didn't know it was his fathers birthday. "My surprise lies in the fact that you, Miss Reynolds, are here without a date."

She could tell as he looked around that he had NO idea that it was Valentine's Day. She wondered if he would still be out and about if he had known - probably. It's not like Valentine's Day was a disease you could catch by being out in public or anything. "Please. I hardly think it's a surprise. I'm sure my name hasn't really been making it's way through the rumor mill lately," she said with a shrug, taking a sip of her butterbeer. It was a shame, actually, that she hadn't been able to get out there and flirt with many of these Ilvermorny boys. But none of them caught her eye!

If it doesn't I can send it back." She had guessed on his size, but cheese and crackers she had looked at him and his shirts for awhile now she hoped she could at least guess the size.
Tilting her head she watched him struggle a bit with his words and she couldn't help but giggle, "I like Blondie. You are the only one that calls me that." He had called her that for so long she really just thought of it as her nickname. She reached over and took his hand giving it a little squeeze. "Silly, you didn't have to get me anything. I just remembered our conversation from our first date. You saying your favorite quodpot team and stuff. So I had owled an order for it. I was giving it to you either way." She loved giving gifts to everyone. "Plus I gave gifts to others if that makes you feel better. Maesi always loves getting presents and attention." Madelyn did not want tension on their date so she hoped that helped. "A salad would be perfect and butterbeer." There was nothing that made a guy feel better about himself than making a girl glow, and Madelyn was practically lit on fire from the inside at the moment. It wasn't just her pleasure at being on a date, although Will was kicking himself for not asking her out sooner because she enjoyed it so much, but she was also just thrilled to pieces to be giving him her gift and watching him open it.
So he could accept it gracefully and not be weird about it. "It'll fit. I'll try it on later, okay?" Because it was awkward to change clothes in public, okay? He slumped a little in his seat, relieved she didn't need a gift but still feeling really terrible about not reciprocating. Maybe they could do a little window shopping after lunch, and if she spotted something she liked, he could get it for her. If it was reasonably priced and not inappropriate as a gift.
The waitress stopped by, and Will ordered for both of them. Once she left, he pulled himself up in his seat and took Madelyn's hand. "What about you? Do you like getting gifts?"

She was just happy for the chance for them to get together because it felt like forever since they had the opportunity with everything else that had been going on.
Smiling, she entered and looked around to see where he was seated. It didn't take long for her to locate him at table near the back. Rosalyn made a beeline towards him. "Gaston." It was so good to see him. Gaston allowed his thoughts to wander as he kept his eyes locked on the door, but before he could become too lost in them, Rose appeared. His heart skipped a beat the moment he saw her. Oh Merlin, he loved her so much! His blue eyes lit up, and a smile spread across his face upon seeing hers. He smile was contagious! "Oh, Rose, I've missed you so much!" he whispered, giving her a little hug. Sure, they saw each other every day at meals and in passing, but they hadn't had any real time together since the Christmas holidays. A sad look grew in his eyes, but it vanished just as quickly as it came. With a flick of his wand, he removed the disillusionment charm he'd placed on the bouquet of red roses he held and handed it to Rose. "Happy Valentine's Day, ma belle!"

He smiled his lopsided smile as Scarlett chuckled, leaning back in his chair to look at her.
"You say that like you think I pay attention to the rumour mill." Which had this fifth year offended, thank you very much. The only time he'd acknowledged it was when a certain LIE had been making its rounds about him - and even in that case, as long as the people he'd cared about knowing had been set straight, he was chill. The rest of the school probably still believed it, and that really didn't bother him.
Not that much, anyway.

The place always had been and always would be..
Home.
He turned his attention back to her and he grinned as she spoke. "That sounds amazing! I might have to stop by sometime and see it! I do love history. " Kalen said with a grin. He loved all things ancient, perhaps that was why he loved books so much? Hmm.. who knew really. "Well I'm glad you are happy there and get to spend time with the girls, that is so important. " He was glad that and Serena never had children, they had been waiting until they had both finished school and then well.. He wouldn't have known how to cope.. Especially with a daily reminder of the love of his life.
Ahh well.
He chuckled softly and ran a hand through his hair at her reaction. "It would be a sad day indeed, please never change Imogen. " He said with a bright smile at her before he nodded. "Mmm, let's head back there shall we?" He asked with a grin as he bowed ever so slightly and held out a hand to motion her forward. "After you My Lady. " He said with a chuckle. |

Originally Posted by Louise Hamilton Louise was not here on a date and even though she had a date for the dinner cruise, it was mostly out of formalities of being a champion. Although, if she was to have a date for Valentine's Day, there was someone different and older that had caught her eye and attention span at the cruise. Except the Thunderbird was positive he was out of her league.
She was here because how often was she going to get the chance to explore the infamous wizarding village of Scotland? As a student? Considering she only had five months as a student, she guessed the opportunity was not going to present itself very often.
Applying a fresh coat of lip gloss, the seventh year decided upon grabbing a drink and snack before heading to explore the Shrieking Shack. Since the second challenge just over a month ago, she had been itching to explore the shack to determine how much of her dream was reality. She also wanted to see where she might have gone wrong, because even though she had earned enough points miraculously to scrape her into the third round, she had the lowest number of points of the eight remaining champions. Something she definitely had mixed emotions over, but was totally blaming the fact that while she had figured out the riddle, she far preferred defensive challenges to ones that challenged her mind. Also, how in the name of Isolt Sayre did Kyle Baker manage to maintain that perfect score? She knew the fifth year was intelligent, but was convinced that the Horned Serpent had some sort of bribery going on. Maybe. Noelle had been with Noah for most of Valentines day. But he had other duties to get done, and Noelle wasn't ready to head back to the school yet. She headed into the Three Broomsticks and took a look around.
She'd come out here to have a good time.
Heading towards the bar, she asked for a butterbeer and paid for it with a little thanks as she took a look around for a place to sit. Seeing someone familiar caught her eye. She headed over to the pretty, older, American girl. " Hey, you're from Ilvermorny right?" Noelle asked without so much as a hello. She would get to that. " I mean... Hi. Firstly." She said, offering a smile to the girl.
Noelle had seen her in the challenges. But she couldn't be sure.

Not that much, anyway. "Good point," Scarlett replied with a chuckle, taking a sip out of her butterbeer. She used to really hate the rumors, and obsess over people's opinions of her - it was part of the reason she had such a hard time with the pneumonia, she assumed. Stress was supposed to mess up your immune system and such, right? Either way, she didn't care now. In fact, she mostly engaged in gossip to keep up with what people were saying about her friends - and so she could promptly punch them in the face if they were spreading nasty lies.
Also she had to look out for Clay. Although that boy was so quiet, she questioned if he was even still here half the time. "Anyways, so what are you up to today? On this totally ORDINARY not special at all day?" she asked, making polite conversation. Her eyes darted over to Professor Marchard - such a shame that man was taken. He was sooooo yummy. Hehe. Nevermind the fact he was like, twenty years older than her, probably.

Gaston never wanted to let go of Rose, but her reluctantly forced himself to break the hug. It was taking every bit of restraint he had not to kiss her! It was completely against his nature to hide his emotions, but he didn't want word to get back to Hawthorne and have to endure her wrath.
He gazed silently at her for a moment, his eyes reflecting all the love and longing he felt. There was a slight tinge of sadness in his eyes as well. He knew that after today was gone, it would be months before they would have more time together like this. He tried to push the thought out of his mind. Today was a happy day! He smiled. "Every day spent with you is a happy one," he whispered.
Seeing Rose's reaction to the flowers made him laugh along with her. "No, I didn't think you would be," he said. His Rose was too smart for that! Besides, the charm was more to hide the gift from students' prying eyes than anything else. Her next words made him shake his head slightly. "Not half as beautiful as my Rose..."
He pulled out a chair for her before taking a seat himself. He glanced over the menu for a minute or two before turning to his date. "So, do you know what you're getting?" he asked.

Stress was supposed to mess up your immune system and such, right? Either way, she didn't care now. In fact, she mostly engaged in gossip to keep up with what people were saying about her friends - and so she could promptly punch them in the face if they were spreading nasty lies.
Also she had to look out for Clay. Although that boy was so quiet, she questioned if he was even still here half the time. "Anyways, so what are you up to today? On this totally ORDINARY not special at all day?" she asked, making polite conversation. Her eyes darted over to Professor Marchard - such a shame that man was taken. He was sooooo yummy. Hehe. Nevermind the fact he was like, twenty years older than her, probably.
Corbin joined in slightly as Scarlett chuckled. He knew people who honestly took the schools rumours way too seriously, and he really didn't care what other people thought about him, as long as his friends were solid.
Which, most of the time, they were.
"I'm sipping a Butterbeer with a rather beautiful girl, right now." Obviously he couldn't help but say it, seeing as it was very true, but he half wondered whether or not Scarlett would roll her eyes, swill him with her drink and leave. After all, she was Saffron's friend, and probably believed all the crap his sister came out with. And there was Lucy, too. "But other than that, I'm not doing anything particularly. Are you?"

She'd come out here to have a good time.
Heading towards the bar, she asked for a butterbeer and paid for it with a little thanks as she took a look around for a place to sit. Seeing someone familiar caught her eye. She headed over to the pretty, older, American girl. "Hey, you're from Ilvermorny right?" Noelle asked without so much as a hello. She would get to that. "I mean... Hi. Firstly." She said, offering a smile to the girl.
Noelle had seen her in the challenges. But she couldn't be sure. Casually sipping on her butterbeer, Louise had been just about finished and ready to split upon not seeing anything of interest here when someone approached her. Ah, hopefully she wouldn't hold her up too much as she did have the real Shrieking Shack to explore. Oh, it was a Hogwarts girl, one with a badge too. Which meant she probably was well aware about the Shack and how to sneak in, but there was also the possibility that the girl was a goody-two-shoes and would squeal on her.
She seemed pretty enough and she knew from Ilvermorny at least, that the goodies were pretty consistently picked for the badges. But there was also the possibility that the girl knew how to hide it. "Hello, yes, I am," she finally replied, smiling back. "Louise Hamilton, Thunderbird and a Seventh Year. Do you know much about Ilvermorny?" Because that might indicate just how much she could trust the badged girl with her plans or if she should look for someone else... like that girl in yellow people watching might have been a prime candidate.
