Flint Manor Christmas Party

[werewolf_first]

The Flint Manor Christmas party was not Theo’s favorite event at Flint Manor. I mean, he enjoyed a good party as much as anyone but prepping for the party always stressed him out so much. He just couldn’t enjoy it as much as he’d like

"You're welcome," Bolly says with practiced solemnity. He is wearing the exact same outfit as his brother, a light grey vest over a checked shirt, dark grey dress trousers and his black boots, except his shirt is green, instead of blue. They have been practicing colour changing charms, so this may no longer be true by the end of the evening. He also somehow has a glass of champagne. "You look very pretty."

Sofie turns and smiles at Bolly. "Hey, thanks. You look nice too. I haven't seen Auggie yet.". She takes notice of his champagne. "Should your have that." She's not going to do anything about it though.

[snakehalf]

"Yes." He nods. "It's a party. That's how parties work."

[packprincess]

"Fair enough," Sofie said as she sipped her own champagne. "Have you seen Papa?" She wants to dance with Blue but whenever he sees them getting too close he finds a way to separate them.

[snakehalf]

"He was talking to dad a moment ago. Why?" His eyes light up. "Ooh, do you need someone to run interference? What are you doing? What do I get?"

[packprincess]

Sofie sighs, "I need a moment with Blue. A papa free moment." She looks at Bolly. "What do you want?"

[snakehalf]

"I get to borrow your broom at school whenever I want," he says promptly. "My brother too."

[packprincess]

She crosses her arms, "I don't think that's fair. I mean, anytime? I train twice a day outside of practice and if you damage it then mum will kill me."

[snakehalf]

That's not an unfair point. Bolly counter-offers. "Twice a week, an hour a time, scheduled at least a day in advance."

[packprincess]

She nods, "Fine. But you polish it when you use it and if you mess it up then I will ruin your life." She holds out a hand to shake.

[snakehalf]

"Deal," he says happily, shaking her hand. He would have done the polishing anyway, because it was one of Grampa Fred's rules at Kidditch; if you take a broom, you put it back in the condition you got it. Not that Bolly still did Kidditch because he was a mature Hogwarts student now. He looked around for Grampa Mike. "When do you want the distraction?"

[packprincess]

"Give me like 5 minutes?" She was beaming now. "Thanks Bolly.'

[snakehalf]

"You're welcome!" Fist bump?

[packprincess]

Fist bump. "You're the best. See you later."

[snakehalf]

"Five minutes," he agrees, and darts into the crowd to hunt down Grampa Mike.
