001! [August 1, 2022!] dead dogs and broomsticks!

Oh, today is a day of celebration! Today I shall have Ellie charm my calendar to flash the date in scarlet ink. You see, it is a MOMENTOUS OCCASION, fellow Hogwartians (yes, I will even include those nasty Gryffindors in my daze of ECSTASY; I'm feeling ever so much goodwill for now). The memory will be treasured foreverWhy, do you ask? (Of

You're getting the new Nimbus? Carmichael, I hate you! My father said it was impractical!

[malcontented]

Actually, mine said the same, and then he gave me a chart with how many hours I would have to work at minimum wage to be able to afford such a thing, and then he gave me five Galleons for a Quidditch magazine and told me to get a job That's where you've gone wrong, then! Fathers never understand -- you have to go ask your mum. Mine said yes right away as long as my father's bookkeepers never find out!

[dontswatme]

My mum would be even worse. She would tell me to work on my studies and then cry because she is disgustingly pregnant.

[malcontented]

In that case, there are only two options left! Are you better at forgery or mugging?

What was it on?

[malcontented]

What?

I got to fly the final prototype earlier during the hols. It's pretty sweet.

[dontswatme]

You have no idea, Potter, do you? No idea.

[firstoutfirstup]

Oh, but I do, Nott.

Hah. Do. Nott. Do not. I bet you get that a lot.

[dontswatme]

I hear it frequently enough for it to have lost its charm.

Just don't let my father hear any of that. He'll have your privileged hide.

[competitivewin]

I'm shocked. We may be in a love triangle and not even know it.

[rathereffable]

If we throw everyone else in, I think it's more like a hexagon or heptagon -- but the more the merrier, yes?

[competitivewin]

Absolutely. Should I have you on one side of me, James on the other?

[rathereffable]

Only if I get to take it from behind, if the rumours are true.

I'm sure all us witches will somehow be able to contain our disappointment.

Oh. It's a broomstick.

[malcontented]

Even if you DO die an old maid, Izzy, I'm sure you shall do so with GRACE and STYLE! But there must be someone out there for you, never fear, even if it ISN'T someone as fetching as I am!

[with_bite]

I'll manage not having someone as fetching as you are, thanks.

[malcontented]

You are so willing to make sacrifices. How do you do it?
