Even I can be wary, sometimes. No, really! Thursday, July 6th - Early Morning

---

It was good to be back home. Seamus was actually glad to be back in Hogsmeade, because, as exciting as Ireland could be, nothing beat a real bed, a roof above his head and a real bathroom.

After taking a good long shower, he'd decided to take a walk and see if anything new had happened while he was gone.

He found himself heading towards the park, as if a few weeks in Ireland's deep forests hadn't quenched his love for nature. Whistling merrily, he walked aimlessly until he noticed two strange looking people. Is there a carnival, these days, or something? And what are they doing next to the well?

His curiosity pushed him and he walked briskly towards them, something nagging in the back of his mind. The closer he got, the familiar they became, even if familiar probably wasn't the right word for it.

"Morning," he called out as he approached them.

If You Ever Wanted To Know What A Person With Acute Paranoia Looks Like, Just Keep Watching. Monday, June 5th ~ Early Evening


Draco had thought of taking today off - it was his birthday after all - but then when would his students give him his gifts? Not that he had practically demanded them or insinuated that it might have an affect on their final - he would never do that.

Well, they couldn't prove it anyway.

Draco raised one eyebrow as his door opened - he never left it un-warded - and cautiously peered inside. ( It was - empty?Collapse )

We Are All Born Naked And Screaming And If You're Lucky That Sort Of Thing Won't Stop There Friday, June 2nd ~ Evening


"I have no idea who is screwing who so just check them in like they say and then send them to the ballroom. Oh!" Draco's eyes widened slightly and he leaned over to talk to the manager in a hushed tone, "If a Ron Weasely or a Daphne Greengrass check in send them out to the stable." He smirked and his grin fell slightly. "Well - only if she's alone. Idiot would get pissy otherwise."

Leaving the man with his final instructions, Draco made his way back to his accommodations - only the best of course - to freshen up, he had an entrance to make after all. So far things were moving along nicely - the staff was well trained and had easily accepted the booking of a Wizarding Proctologists Convention - allegedly to keep the press away, actually to keep his family away and the ruse seemed to have worked. Not to mention it provided him with endless personal amusement.

Happy Birthday to me, Happy Birthday to me...

When You've Been Through Everything I Have, Paranoia Is Merely A Precaution! Friday, May 19th ~ Early Morning


Draco twisted over on his side, drawing one of his pillows closer as he blearily cracked open one eye to see where the noise - was that a cackle? - that had awoken him came from.

Eh. It's just Oven, passed through his sleepy brain as his eye closed again. And sprang open, fully this time.

"Fuck!" Came from the floor on the other side of the bed as he tripped over his blankets in attempting to flee.

"Back to hell, demon! Back to hell!" The sound was slightly muffled by the carpet pressing into his face, but the sentiment was there.

Where the hell is my - fuck! On the nightstand. On that side of the bed.

Let the punishment fit the crime Sunday, April 30th ~ Afternoon


"You're a slave driver, you know that?" Seamus grumbled. "What am I thinking? Of course you know it! And I bet you're proud of it!"

He sighed and raised his free hand to wipe his brow. It was getting warm and all the packages he was carrying weren't helping. He came to a stop and prepared a pout.

"I'm thirsty!" he declared, turning to glare at Draco.

Chaos in the midst of chaos isn't funny, but chaos in the midst of order is. -Steve Martin Monday, April 24th ~ Early Evening


Draco glanced up at the clock in the lower level staff lounge, watching the seconds tick by. Snorting at the man residing opposite him at the table, Draco slowly crumpled up a piece of parchment and tossed it at his head - currently buried in his crossed arms on the table.

It would be an almost comical display of apprehension and dread - if Draco didn't feel the exact same way.

"Why the hell did I ever let you talk me into this? Fucking bastard - you appealed to my libido - and lied."

Experience Is A Hard Teacher. She Gives The Test First And The Lessons Afterwards. ~ Anonymous ~ Monday, April 3rd ~ Early Afternoon


Stacking parchment on one side of her desk, Doris looked over the list one last time before heading toward the stairs that would take her up to Harry's office. She didn't know how he would handle it, but she was having a problem fitting all the students into the allotted slots.

Knocking briefly on his door, she breezed in and coughed lightly. She stifled a laugh when he jumped and turned away from the window to face her.

"Harry? Wool gathering? What would your students think?"

"Please remember WWN is always interested in the comments and concerns of our listeners. If you have one, please contact us by owl or floo. We appreciate the interest shown and will respond as soon as possible. The Wizarding Wireless Network now takes you to the open house at The Phoenix."

Er - Surprise? Monday, March 20 ~ Afternoon


Draco nodded with satisfaction as he viewed the finished room. He had found out only after the fact that Friday had been Seamus' birthday and upon recalling the conversation they'd had, he'd known just the thing. The only thing left had been to wait until the man went out and Draco could get into his flat. Well, that and evicting the previous tenant of the adjacent flat in order to take the needed space.

Draco made sure the items they had discussed were properly set out and charmed, ignoring the voice telling him it was a shame to let all these preparations go to waste. Reaching for the handle of the door out of the flat he froze as it turned itself under his hand.

This could be bad. Or very, very good.

St Patrick's Day Friday, March 17th ~ Evening


"...and to end our little salute to St Patrick, we bring you some little known facts about a drink I'm sure the majority of you will have consumed before the evening is over."

A slight rustle of paper is heard and a throat is cleared lightly.

"About 4000 years ago, it was the accepted practice in Babylonia that for a month after the wedding, the bride's father would supply his son-in-law with all the mead he could drink. Mead is a honey beer, and because their calender was lunar based, this period was called the 'honey month' or what we know today as the 'Honeymoon'.

Merlin, Defend Me From My Friends; From My Enemies I Can Defend Myself. Monday, March 13th ~ Evening


Daphne had asked Harry to let her handle the situation with Draco and while Harry fully intended to honor that request, he still wanted to know what the fuck was going on. Since Daphne was at work, Harry took the chance that Draco would be at home and Apparated over without sending any notice.

That way he can't take off and make me hunt for him.

Observation Experiment One Saturday, March 11th ~ Afternoon


Draco had overslept. He had overslept and he was suppose to have lunch with Flammable today. After getting ready he hadn't been able to shake off the feeling that there was something he had forgotten to do...

"Fuck!" Apparating to the landing outside Ginny's door, Draco didn't bother to knock - he did own the bloody building after all - and barged in, hollering as he moved from room to room. "Ginny! Where are you? You'd better be dressed because we're-"

"What the hell are you doing?"

There is a party, everyone is there. Everyone will leave at exactly the same time. Friday, March 10 || Evening


They weren't due at Harry's for a while yet, but Remus was ready and knocking at Izabel's door.

It had been much too late to disturb her when he'd got back last night, and he was hoping for a moment of quiet talk before heading out to meet everyone.

And if she weren't ready yet and he got to sit on the bed and watch her prepare, well.

It was his birthday, wasn't it? He could do what he wanted.

"I Don't Give A Damn What Your Job Description Is, Witherpool. This. Is. My. Story!" Wednesday, March 8th ~ Mid Afternoon


Rita looked up and down the busy street, moved over to a pleasant looking women and snatched the microphone out of her hands. "Damn it, Anastasia! This is my story! I spent the night under that table with their smelly feet - although the view wasn't bad - I deserve this! Shoo!"

Bumping the shocked woman aside, Rita smiled at the crowd and turned on the mic. "Good afternoon to all our listeners! Rita Skeeter here with a special live

fuck, I hope very lively

broadcast from Hogsmeade! As you may all recall, last night The Three Broomsticks held a poker tournament exclusive to men.

Like I was about to stay away from that!

Well ladies, it seems they have decided to make it up to us!"

( Rita paused and held up the microphone as the people on the streets - largely women - cheered.Collapse )

If, after the first twenty minutes, you don't know who the sucker at the table is, it's you. ~ Unknown Tuesday, March 7th ~ Evening

Ladies Night Saturday, March 4th ~ Evening


Gabrielle shrank down in her seat slightly as she saw Molly bustle behind the bar, hoping to go unnoticed. Thankfully her own family hadn't heard of the false engagement yet, but Gabby was afraid every time she saw Bill's mother that the woman would tie her to a chair and plan a wedding. As Molly went back into her kitchen, Gabrielle sat back up and looked around for Ginny.

When the other woman had suggested Gabby needed to get out more - well, she couldn't deny it. Although she had the feeling that she would have been more relaxed had they met somewhere else.

Let Them Eat Cake! Wednesday, March 1 -- Late Afternoon


If there was one thing Ron held close to his heart, it was food and on birthdays you got a lot of food. A lot of cake too.

So he was very, very excited when he walked into The Three Broomsticks on his birthday to see his mum and dad.

To be honest he was more excited to see his mum as she was probably the one with the food and his dad would more than likely be trying to steal it...

Playing Hookey Sunday, February 26th -- Early Afternoon


Adrian and Izabel walked along the path to Hogsmeade. It seemed like a nice day to go to the pub, and Izabel didn't want to go alone so Adrian was happy to go along. He believed there was nothing wrong with drinking on a Sunday, especially if you were going to be teaching a bunch of kids the next day. Mondays were always a bother.

"Well look who's back in town." Adrian said to Izabel, gesturing to a short Irish man who just walked out of Luna's shop.

I should owl Luna sometime. Ask her if she'd be interested in scheduling a study session.

I guess I just prefer to see the dark side of things. The glass is always half empty. And cracked. And I just cut my lip on it. And chipped a tooth. - Janeane Garofalo Friday, February 24 ~ Afternoon


Draco leaned back into the soft dark leather of booth, watching the comings and goings of the cafe with blank eyes. He had sent Ginny an owl to meet him as soon as he had arrived home this morning, not yet ready to see whatever disgusting display Potter and Greengrass were sure to put on. After locking the two in a room together on Valentine's Day, Draco had made sure the staff knew not to tell him a damn thing about any noises or room service requests and proceeded to get thoroughly pissed.

And woken up in Venice. How was still a mystery, but the timing had been ideal. Away from his family, away from - them, just the break he needed right?

Until you took into account the number of vacationing lovers. Gah. So back home it was. As a flash of red caught his eye, Draco found himself grinning and hoping it was Ginny. He had actually missd a Weasley. Un-frickin-believable.

If You Once Turn On Your Side After The Hour At Which You Ought To Rise, It Is All Over. ~ Sir Walter Scott ~ Thursday, February 16th ~ Morning


The day began for Luna when she woke up. It didn't matter what the clock told her or if it was darkest night outside. She'd decided a long time ago that there had to be a reason for waking up and she wouldn't find out what it was if she stayed in bed and fell asleep again. Hence, the middle of the night visit to the little building beside the post office. She'd finally been able to rent it and had been anxious to get started cleaning it out. There were oodles of things the previous tenant had left and until she'd looked at all of it, she wouldn't know what to get rid of. Just trashing the whole lot would be something that most people would do, but would horrify Luna. Who knew what treasures you might find.

( A path to the front doors had been forgedCollapse )

History of Valentine's Day ~ The History Channel ~ Tuesday, February 14th ~ Evening


"Every February, across the country, candy, flowers, and gifts are exchanged between loved ones, all in the name of St. Valentine. But who is this mysterious saint and why do we celebrate this holiday?

"The history of Valentine's Day -- and its patron saint -- is shrouded in mystery. But we do know that February has long been a month of romance. St. Valentine's Day, as we know it today, contains vestiges of both Christian and ancient Roman tradition.

( So, who was Saint Valentine and how did he become associated with this ancient riteCollapse )

It wasn't me, Professor, honest! Thursday, February 9th ~ Late Afternoon


Ah, the memories of his teen days at Hogwarts... Seamus would have gotten teary if not for the fact that he'd recently decided he was going to start acting manly from now on. But really, there was something in the air, something that made him nostalgic. After all, it had been his home for many years.
That was probably why he was here, actually. Because he felt like seeing the walls that had surrounded his teenage years.

( Talk about acting manly!Collapse )
