â â- Molly didnât mind taking on extra responsibilities. If there was a job to be done, she was going to do it even if it wasnât her responsibility. There were a lot of people suffering from accidental ailments and so little healers to go around. And there seemed to be more children running around that only made her ache for her own. Kneeling down in front of the other, the midwife gave them a pleasant smile before she held up the lollipop that she had hidden in her pocket. âItâs all yours if you tell me whatâs wrong,â she said half jokingly. âI can try my best to get you out here as fast as possible.â
.
Augustus lifted his head (and his eyebrow) at the sound of Mollyâs voice. He knew, absolutely knew, she couldnât have been talking to him - he was perfectly fine - and yet, she was, in fact, speaking to him. âIf I tell you Iâm waiting on a patient, and not a patient myself, are you going to rescind the offer of sweets?â Of course, if the patient in question were anyone but his mother, Augustus would not have hung around to wait and be offered sweets at all. âI must look terribly morose, then, but alas. I have no ailment to blame it on.â

her closet, honestly
âDonât you have anything......â he trailed off with a sigh, trying not to sound too disappointed - it wasnât Evaâs fault (it never was) and he knew she simply wasnât that kind of lady - as he shuffled through the options for the seven thousandth time, â.. shorter?â Already, he had tried â and had been intercepted â several times to shorten her hemline himself, with his wand; maybe if her shoes were higher. âWeâre going out, Eva. Out. Weâre gonna get drunk, weâre gonna dance. I want fun, I want sexy, hell, I want slutty.â He whirled around, turning to face her in all of his dramatic glory, wiggling finger and all, to go with his grin. âDonât I deserve a little sluttiness? I think I do. I know you do.â

A day or so had passed and Marlene was back at her desk, figuratively. The morning was spent, surprisingly proving that she could write paper work down correctly. The early afternoon, making it blatantly clear to Moody and the other senior aurors that she wouldnât stay away from the wreckage again, not when she was sure she could figure out the curse from the blast pattern on the remaining brick. She didnât get a no outright. If anything, she expected to be surprise apparated to a safe house to explain it all again. If only her parents could actually know about any of that. Now, she found herself back in the halls, still sidelined from whatever official investigation the ministry really would launch. âNot today you.â She almost grinned. âIâmâŠâ she paused before bypassing Augustus entirely, turning a sharp corner âreviewing Accidental Magic Reversal Squad archives.â Despite her usual glint of mischief in crystalline eyes, she wasnât fully lying. Marlene even thought she may be onto something. âItâd bore you to sleep, darling.â @gus-rookwoodâ
.
He hadnât been looking for her, but he wasnât going to admit that; for once it was actual coincidence, and not engineered coincidence, that had them crossing paths today, but Augustus would be damned before heâd be spurned that quickly. He laughed, turning on his heel to follow as she moved past him, even as she told him not to, shaking his head all the while. âIf you think I canât appreciate the entertainment gold hidden in the depths of the Accidental Magic archives, then you donât know me at all.â Granted, she ... barely did, and he did know that, but what nerd could ever be bored by the allure of research? it didnât take long at all to catch up to her, and he slowed his stride to match hers, curious. What on earth was she looking for? âWhat dull thing is it that youâre hoping to discover?

He was looking at Mark, but, really, he was looking through Mark â and through his fingers, at that, splayed across his face while his indexes found his temples â as he spoke, knowing that he was wasting his breath; how many times had he told her she had to stop this? âOne of these days, someone is going to put two and three together, and finally ask me why I have an assistant at all if he isnât available to me in a consistent or predictable manner.â He couldnât argue the sick genius of her plan, though. Who the fuck was going to tell him he didnât belong in his own department? Who would be brave enough to pick that fight, or question his identity? âTo what do I owe the pleasure, then? Did I forget an appointment?â

âclearly you needed it earlier when you were having a hissy fit.â edgar corrects gus in a matter of factly tone as smile forms on his lips and he gently presses his calloused thumb against the wrinkles on the side of gusâ eyes, his own eyes scanning the manâs in front of him just making sure that he was actually still standing there in front of him. these days with being an obliviator he was working later with inez and his wand than usual, it started to show on the skin on his hands. there was so much activity happening on the streets that edgar couldnât quite ignore these days even when he had tried to sleep. as he pulled away to make his way to the bench plopping his fine ass on the bench he crosses one leg over the other still sipping at his nearly full iced coffee. âwe never did that bullshit did we? decorating a tree or whatever?â edgar couldnât really quite remember, all he knows is that they did quite a bit together when they were younger. âwould we really get a plaque with our names on a bench? i donât know, that just sounds so prestigious, maybe itâs your style, but i can show my love for you way longer than a plaque on a bench even when i am dead.â he hums out leaning into gusâ side, his own curls blowing in the crips fresh autumn air. âbesides, youâre my best friend, why do i need a plaque to show that something like us lasts forever?â he asks mindlessly not even thinking of his question as he looks over at gus, the smallest bit of a smile as he nuzzles his cheek into gusâ collarbone.Â
.
âEvidently, all I really needed was some attention,â he said bluntly. And if that were the case (and it was absolutely the case) he was now getting that attention in strides. While the inspection wasnât unfamiliar by any means â Augustus was frequently guilty of subjecting Edgar to the same sort of ordeal â there was a tiredness, a softness to it, that Augustus found to be slightly distressing. What new turmoil was Edgar experiencing now, and why couldnât he ever seem to find himself happy and centered at the same time? âNo, you wouldnât stand for the desecration of any of the trees, it was bad enough, already, you insisted,â Augustus reminded the man, âthat they would be felled for paper products. You barely found out about the plaques being a thing today, so I believe itâs safe to assure you I never did that behind your back, either. What, someone is going to come and remember me when they sit on a bench? Why? Theyâll think of me whenever they enter a bookstore, or hear someone shouted at for incompetence. No, you and I, we leave our marks in other, more indelible ways, donât we?â He shook his head for a moment, but his focus fell shortly, and soon, on Edgarâs curls once more, and Gus played with them, arranging the mess back into a sensible pattern. âRight? At least we arenât trying to be vampires to prove forever means forever.âÂ

âyou dooo you do.â doris chirped happily as she laced her bony arm around gusâ. strolling along side of him happily. she had gotten used to the other man being in her life as much as she hated to admit it. she didnât want to think that the sole reason for her having a place to live was because of him but she did force him to take the money she earned quarterly to make up for the times that she didnât pay him. a smile faltered at the mention of finding a meal at the wyvern. not how she typically liked to liveâ or being born a muggleborn thought she would be now. but she spread a thin sickly sweet smile on her lips as she looked up at augustus. âmost of the blokes at the wyvern are shite anyways, right? i mean, maybe not you, but the other blokes. i could go for something to eat right about now.âÂ
.
He hated that, or he pretended to â Gus didnât stop her from whining or cooing, he didnât deny that he cared about her, but he did groan, pulling on a face that promised he was being tortured most unfairly. Augustus had never had siblings, and even as a child, had very few close friends; this vampire, strangely, was the closest he had ever had. Of course, this closeness hadnât come until after she was a vampire, but Gus tried not to dwell on that either, he liked being needed too much. âWell, yes, that was the basic point I was making,â he told her, a dry, almost dark, chuckle coming out of him as he teased her. He knew she didnât like that idea, and yet, he continued to tease her about it. âBut it was a joke,â he added, hoping to give her some small iota of relief. âIâve heard ....â he continued, unwilling to let his point go, regardless, âthereâs a feeder group hangs out there, they get off on that sorta thing, Dor. So, again, maybe weâll get lucky. If not, weâll just go. Iâm only taking the lunch because I need to leave the office, not because Iâm hungry.â

âIâm not a fuckinâ idiot,â he stated as he caught up. Stolas glanced at the older male, a bit annoyed of course. Heaven forbid people didnât compromise for him. He pushed his hair back lazily. âHa, ha,â he said monotonous. The male rolled his eyes. âI was going to ask about a file but I canât remember the name. I should probably ask Edgar instead but Iâll take you up on lunch.â
.
âTechnically,â he began, and he knew the other man could hear the fucking grin even before Gus aimed it at him, âI didnât say you were, but I like you defensive.â He laughed, shaking his head, and the laughter grew at the dull laughter from Stolas, Gus enjoying the moment far more than he wouldâve if he hadnât just spent the morning terrorizing his department. âYou probably should, but we all know itâs easier to ask me. You might remember after lunch, who knows, maybe something will jog your memory. Howâve you been anyways? I havenât seen you in weeks.â

â â- Mary nodded. She remembered prefect duties when she had them. She had taken Lilyâs spot as Gryffindorâs girl prefect when Lily had moved on to Head Girl. But Mary knew that she much rather be back in her dorm bed than spending the night patrolling the school corridors. Mary had to bite down on her lower lip to keep herself from laughing out. âIn my defense, there are quite a few who come up to the front desk with a large stack of books,â she pointed out allowing herself to chuckle. âIt was an attempt at a compliment.â
.
He had to give her that much â even Gus could admit (and he felt rightfully so) that heâd rather been known as attractive and nerdy rather than simply nerdy. he dropped his head, as if he were ashamed of himself (and he wasnât, but he knew this was the part where he looked sheepish about ruining about a perfectly good compliment; how rude of him) and letting the hair flop over and into his face. Of course, he had to push it out of his way as he lifted his head again, but that, he didnât mind. âI donât always take them well, thatâs my fault. Donât always see them for what they are. I do like being memorable, though.â

where:Â Florean Fortescueâs Ice Cream Parlour
  Inez was never against catching up with an old friend. However both her career and her inability to stay too long sometimes interfered but she had decided to take a bit of a break from work. It had been too long since she had been back home this long. Inez was a little lost in her thoughts. She also hadnât seen her younger sisters but they had all grown and gone their separate ways. The truth was that she was feeling a little homesick. Sometimes she wondered if they were mad at her for leaving the muggle world to come here. Inez could honestly say that she didnât regret her decision but the thought always lingered. She snapped back to reality when they called her name. âSorryâŠâ She looked down at her ice cream and took another spoonful. âWhat did you say again?âÂ
.
Oh good, she hadnât been listening. That was going to make this fun. Augustus grinned for a split second as Inez looked back down, and then the smile vanished just as quickly as it had come. Despite what Edgar, and everyone else thought, Augustus did not hate Inez; he didnât even dislike her. Personally, he thought Inez was pretty great, he even thought she was a great match for Edgar. The problem, really, was that Edgar was Edgar, and Gus had known the man for a very long time; he saw through the things the man said, and had had a front row seat to his life since childhood - he knew the mess Inez had attached herself to, he loved that mess, and he wanted that mess to stop being ready to bolt at a momentâs notice or less. Plus, Gus didnât like to share. âI said,â he began, adding snark and sarcasm to his voice that were absolutely unnecessary, âthat Iâve been working on my best man speech.â
