A very merry and belated Christmas

[his_woodiness]

The reason why I am so late with gifts this year is that on my way back from Diagon Alley I left all my packages on the Night Bus, and they were only returned to me after I had stern words with the new driver. Angelina, Alicia and Katie helped me pick these out, except obviously their own presents.

I'm not deaf.

[his_woodiness]

Just trying to get your attention. I need to talk to you.

[roman_war]

I did that to Terence... then we ended up having scotch (I forget how much) and discussing ways of how to... nevermind.

[his_woodiness]

Scotch is a very good idea. Thanks.

[thequietchaser]

It's tight. And low-cut. And red. A part of me just died. Thank you, Oliver. What a lovely gesture. Errr...

[his_woodiness]

Like it? Katie and Angelina insisted on that one for you. You better not wear it for Connolly. Or Higgs, though he's the lesser of two evils. Or any other male, in fact. Actually, why did I buy that dress at all?

[thequietchaser]

Oh. Did they now? I see...

[richestorags]

What's a lovely gesture?

[teaganmoran]

Oh, thank ye so very much! That's so sweet of ye, and I'd so give ye a hug I'll be sure to wear it when the weather gets warmer even though I don't typically wear dresses.

Say, would ye like to toss a Quaffle around one o' these evenings? I think ye could use somethin' to loosen up a bit from all that patrollin'.

[his_woodiness]

Certainly! I get plenty of exercise with Auror training, but it's not the sort to help you unwind.

I'm glad you like the dress. Alicia said it would go well with your colouring. Actually, I want to talk about that, but I don't know if you remember telling me and if so I don't want to bring it up again, so...

[richestorags]

You bought Moran a dress, too? How many other girls have you bought dresses for? Are you hoping that if you cast the net wide one of them will bite?

[teaganmoran]

WHAT?

I'm sure he meant it just as a present, and fer sure he's not interested in every female friend he knows! It'd be contrary to everything I've concluded about 'im... but then again when was I a good judge of character when it comes to blokes? Sure an' I didn't do very well when it came to Edan Connolly, an' look where that brought me... No, it's all fer the best. Really. ...... irrational. I'm sure he can't like that many girls at once.

[katieblubell]

I adore my dress Oliver, it's gorgeous. I'll be sure to wear it for something special. Like a dinner date maybe...

[roman_war]

Yeah. You'll probably wear it for Edan, because he's so GREAT!!! Not.

[pen_elope_clear]

How terribly sweet of you Oliver, thankyou!

[his_woodiness]

You're welcome, Penelope. Hope you get a use out of it.

At least it's not pink, eh?
