Día de Muertos en San Cristóbal
Tumblr media
I had many time since my last picture about Isolde and Talbott. I took advantage of my streak of inspiration with the beautiful draw about Candy Vigiere and Talbott (you can see my last publish), to do one for me.
I know it's very late, (November will finish soon), but I did the scene in San Cristóbal de las Casas with Tal and Isa, on Día de Muertos' celebration.
If you read my fics or my older publish here, Tadao Hiwatari Olivares was Isolde's father, and he was Mexican born in Chiapas. He worked for Gringotts but died in the First Magical War. He was buried in his hometown (it was his wish, like the song "Mexico lindo y querido" by Jorge Negrete: "If I die far from you/Let them say that I'm asleep/and bring me here").
Since they were in Hogwarts, Isa had been talked with Talbott about her ethnicity and her traditions. One of them, of course, is to celebrate this day and commemorate her loves ones who had passed away. (She usually create "la ofrenda" -altars with offerings to the deceased-, every year since she was a child).
Winger, since they're friends, was interested about this tradition, getting more and more involved, helping her to create the altar every year since they're in 7th year. In this picture, they're nearly 23-24 years old. And Isa convinced him to make up with her like catrines: she wears a Chiapas tradicional dress and Talbott, a Taumalipas tradicional suit.
By the way, I publish a version without make-up, too.

*my submission for the @hphmsecretsanta event this year!!!
Tumblr media
The first time it happened, Talbott had no idea that this would turn into a recurring theme between them.
They’d been assigned to work together in the green house while Professor Sprout stepped out. Having been the two students closest to her when she did, she asked them to harvest her plant for her while she briefly dismissed herself to have a word with Professor McGonagall. This wouldn’t be so bad really if they weren’t trying to do so in front of a live audience.
Thankfully, it seemed easier than they originally assumed and they began their task with relative ease. The students around them elected to chat amongst themselves, filling the greenhouse with idle chatter and distant voices. The afternoon sun spilled in through the window, casting a golden aura about the room.
Talbott almost began to appreciate the serenity of the moment when it was oh so rudely interrupted.
“Have you done this before?” His fellow fourth year asks, hugging her robe a bit closer to her on account of the winter chill in the air. Even with the warming charm it can still be felt in waves.
He nearly doesn’t deign to reply, but does so with an arched eyebrow. “I haven’t.”
This time the other student, Isabella Wallace, turn to look him in the eye, her own sparkling with amusement and mirth. “That so? You’re doing quite well though.”
“Perhaps because it’s in the current chapter of our textbook.” Talbott bites back, perhaps a bit more hostile than was necessary.
Isabella sends him an unimpressed look and he sighs in defeat. “It’s not difficult. You’re also not doing awful.”
A smirk paints her mouth, her brown eyes reflecting the sunshine and looking warm. “My, is that a compliment? From Talbott Winger? The guy with a notorious bad mood?”
Talbott groans and rolls his eyes. “I can always retract it, y’know.”
“Nope, too late,” Isabella shakes her head, her blonde ponytail swaying gently with the movement. “You’ve already given it. The compliment has been received. You can’t take it back.”
She smiles up at him and Talbott scowls and turns away as his chest blooms with warmth. Like a virus.
Isabella grins winningly at his acquiescence.
The animagus debates objecting further or letting the conversation meet its awkward but timely end there when he notices the lack of idle chit chat in the background. He turns his head to examine this change and meets the wide, intrigued glances of everyone else in the room. From his peripheral, he can see Isabella look to do the same.
“What?” She asks lamely, almost childlike.
A kid at the back, a blonde ravenclaw with a mischievous grin, merely points up towards the ceiling.
His eyes first study the space above the ravenclaw’s head, but when he finds nothing he frowns in confusion. That is, until he feels a tug at his robe and he looks over to find Isabella also pointing upwards.
His entire expression slips from his face when he recognizes what he sees.
Isabella blushes but makes an attempt to laugh off the awkwardness. The rest of the class, however, aren’t quite so ready to dismiss what could possibly be enough drama to last their year for the next month and a half. And just when he thought the attentive looks weren’t bad enough, they began to chant.
“Kiss! Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!”
Not entirely unexpected for a band of teenagers, though the whole thing still felt terribly juvenile to him. Talbott even began to blush from embarrassment.
Suddenly, Isabella turns to him and Talbott arches a brow at her. “Do you mind?”
He blinks. “Pardon?”
She goes to reply, but is cut off by the cheers growing even louder. With a shrug and a sigh, she steadies herself by grabbing his forearm and pushing up onto her toes to plant a kiss on Talbott’s cheek. Her lips are a bit chapped from the weather but still somehow softer than he expected them to be as they brush his skin.
Right as she pulls back, leaving Talbott stunned, wide-eyed, and dumbfounded, the door to the greenhouse opens.
“What in Merlin’s beard is going on here? I leave for two minutes and the next thing you know I hear—” Her eyes spot Isabella and Talbott at the front and Isabella hastily drops his arm. Her eyes automatically shoot up to the roof.
Understanding dawns on her.
“Well, I suppose that’s what I get for forgetting I let the students hang up mistletoe in here.”
Their professor shakes her head and shoos them both back to their seats. She resumes her place and carries on with the lecture but this time, Talbott can’t help but allow his eyes to drift up and over the table.
Across from him Isabella is already staring back. When he catches her eye, she doesn’t blush or look away. She merely offers him a warm smile.
It suddenly feels warmer in the greenhouse.
II.
The second time they were caught in such unfortunate circumstances, Talbott had the bright idea to follow her down into Knockturn Alley.
Suffice to say, it wasn’t exactly a fun excursion.
So far removed from the safe boundaries and protective wards of Hogwarts grounds, every step felt precious. The snow crunched beneath his boots but he felt more like he was walking on ice. Whenever he looked up, another dark witch or wizard had their eyes peeled to them. The entire alley felt foreboding and threatening.
Isabella casts him a look over her shoulder as she trudges forth. “I told you that you didn’t have come. I would’ve been fine by myself.”
“Maybe,” Talbott concedes, but his tone still holds a stubborn edge. “Maybe not. But you’re undefeated, Isabella, not immortal.”
She releases a long sigh and stays quiet for a moment. “I wish you would’ve stayed at the castle.”
“I’m aware.”
“You could get hurt here.”
“So could you.”
Isabella rubs nervously at her arms. A frown clear on her face to broadcast her blatant disagreement.
Now sixteen, Talbott had grievously grown to care for the wild Gryffindor. While certainly troublesome and stubborn—and at times immensely frustrating—she was, he had reluctantly admitted to himself years ago that her kindness and selflessness was endearing. Endearing enough, it seems, to warrant a tentative crush on the cursebreaker. Not that he’s yet said as much.
Finally, after what feels like much longer than it likely was, they reach the spot they’re supposed to be at when they meet up with Jae.
Isabella pulls Talbott into a small alcove, but hesitates on the shove.
He follows her eyes to a small gathering of witches and wizards, speaking in frantic, hushed tones. Her fist clenches as she stares at them and she makes to step away from their hiding spot but Talbott reaches out to grab her elbow, stopping her.
“Don’t. We aren’t here for them. They’ll get their karma in due time.”
The brunette looks back once before relenting and settles back against the cold stone wall.
Their little alcove is beyond cramped. Just enough room for them to both lean against the walls at their backs without touching, but certainly not enough for someone to shove down the path between them. He’s much taller now than he’d been before, and he can’t stop himself from looking down and admiring her.
Nose and cheeks dusted a bright red from the snowy weather, hands shoved into her overcoat where she hides her wand. Dark blonde hair falling haphazardly around her shoulder, collecting snowflakes. Her lips chapped and close to cracking.
“Staring is impolite.” Talbott reads from her lips as they curl into a playful, albeit tired, smirk. “It’ll give a girl ideas.”
Talbott starts and clears his throat, casting his eyes away. “Right. I guess I spaced out.”
She doesn’t seem satisfied with this response but lets it pass. She shuffles and it inadvertently brings them closer. He thinks the moment might slip away but then she chuckles, drawing his attention back.
“This must be some sort of joke.”
“Excuse me?”
This time, it’s more of a snicker as she removes a gloved hand to gestures up above them. Talbott doesn’t even need to look to know what it is.
“Mistletoe,” Isabella supplies. “Again.”
Talbott tsks, looking away. He’s momentarily extremely thankful the cold hides his blush. “How ridiculous.”
“I think they’re fun,” Isabella grins and Talbott’s gaze snaps back to her. “Don’t you?”
He freezes, feeling as though he’s melting into the wall behind him. “I, uh—”
Isabella takes a step closer, her gloved hands gently pulling his from his own pockets and holding them. “Indulge me?”
He can’t even say yes before they’re both leaning in.
“Guys!”
They both jump apart, knocking into the brick walls at their backs. Isabella runs at her head, having bumped it on the stone.
Jae gives them a toothy, devious grin, crossing his arms as she approaches them from the main alley.
“Am I interrupting something?”
Talbott grumbles and rolls his eyes before pushing past them both. “Let’s go. We don’t have all day.”
III.
“Talbott? Have you seen my boots?” Isabella calls from their bedroom, her voice barely rising over the intense whistling of the wind outside.
“You left them with the laundry, love.” He calls back patiently.
“The black ones with the—”
“With the laces, yes.” He assures her, followed by the pattering of her footsteps, softened by her fuzzy socks.
She returns a moment later with a triumphant smile as she walks easily, directly into his waiting embrace. He deposits a kiss to her temple.
“I knew I left them there.” She teases.
“I’m sure.” He allows. “You ready to go now, then?”
Isabella nods, but steals his hands away in hers when he reaches for their gift bag. He involuntarily shivers as she pulls him closer to the fireplace by the lapels of his coat, the warmth of it enveloping him with a sharp contrast from the snowy expanse outside.
Their little house in the woods might be modest now, but they do have their plans to expand. Someday. Should the right time and opportunity arrive.
Branches tap at their windows but they pay it no mind. “Before we leave, can I show you something?”
Talbott considers the request. “Will I regret it?”
Isabella, who’d usually balk at such teasing, merely hums and shakes her head with a coquettish grin. “I don’t think so.”
His thumb brushes over the ring on her finger and he knows he’s already given in. “Then I suppose we could spare the time, since you’re so sure.”
Isabella smiles, victorious, and pulls him down into a thoughtful kiss. The fire strokes the warmth in his chest and his hands find purchase at her waist. He kisses her back eagerly, her lips by now familiar.
“How was that?”
Talbott smirks at the huskiness of her voice. “Lovely, dear, though I fail to see what it is you wanted to show me.”
“Look up.”
The words alone pull a chuckle from his throat but he does anyway.
Mistletoe.
Of course.
“Third time’s the charm, right?”
Talbott nods and leans in again. “Right. And everyone knows the best things come in threes…”

A Thousand Times
Hi 💛
This is another Kendrick Lives AU installment. I have yet to post anything gearing towards Kendrick (I have something in the works, I promise.) But thanks to @that-scouse-wizard for being interested in this AU, I was able to build how the Talith would begin. 
So it’s gonna be kind of similar to the First Date TLSQ but with some changes thrown in. 
MC Friend: David Willows ( @that-scouse-wizard )
(Bro, this has been sitting in my drafts for FOUR MONTHS. Writer’s block is the devil, but I’m happy to finish this piece. Now for the other drafts glaring at me.)
Hope you guys like it!
----------------------------------------------
Talbott quietly snuck into the empty Charms classroom, holding an envelope and single hibiscus flower. 
He’s been playing “secret admirer” for some time now to a certain Hufflepuff witch.
Judith Harris.
One of the infamous Curse Breakers at Hogwarts. The other half of the dynamic duo Tigress and Hound, Hufflepuff’s feared Beaters on the Quidditch Pitch. A girl with the controversial scar that everyone can’t seem to stop whispering about.
Talbott has heard about her long before he met her. It was hard not to, seeing how everyone in school loves to gossip about something.
When he met her for the first time, he had to hold back a wince when taking a good look at her scar. He’s heard different stories about how she got it.
Most common was that she was born with it or found herself in an angry dragon’s nest somehow.
Other than that, nobody really knows.
But he knew that the time, it had to be painful beyond words.
Other than her scar, Talbott thought she was rather pretty. Beautiful if he was being true to his feelings.
Something about her pale gold eyes spoke to his heart, even if he was adamant about keeping his distance from her.
As he got to know the Hufflepuff, he found himself intrigued by her. He never thought he would encounter a person with a heart of gold despite the pain and rejection they received.
He even rejected her offer of help when Merula snuck up on her, David, and himself. The blatant hurt in her eyes is something he would never forget.
But she didn’t give up on him. Helping him learn the Memory Charm in attempt to get Merula to forget what she heard. 
Even going as far to help him to find his necklace.
He was able to call her his friend...
Until recently.
Not too long ago, the Celestial Ball was the latest buzz that overtook the castle. Everyone was eager to find a date to accompany them. Talbott didn’t think much of it at the time. 
Until he saw Judith in Andre’s arms. 
He was in his Animagus form, only wanting to observe the dance until he spotted her. Talbott remembered feeling like his breath was stolen from his lungs when he saw the painfully shy Hufflepuff at the refreshment table.
Her dress was a deep red and white. It hugged her upper body like a glove while the skirt flared out at the hips. There was a slit in the left side of the dress, showing off her toned leg. The sleeves were off the shoulder, revealing a lot more skin Talbott is used to seeing from her. Gold heeled shoes can be seen on her feet. Her signature accessories can be found on her ears with a simple gold heart necklace was around her neck.
Her locs were curled, framing her delicate face perfectly. Her face was make up free.
Even with her unsure sips of her goblet, her hunched shoulders, and a small frown on her full lips, Talbott found her endearing.
Until Andre popped up, asking for the next dance. 
Which so happened to be a slow dance.
The ugly twisted feeling that settled in his chest didn’t feel right as he watch the two share hushed whispers to each other. All he could think of was,
‘That should be me...’
He wanted to be the one holding her close. The one looking into those mystical eyes while sharing hushed whispers. To feel her hand clashed in his own, establishing an intimate connection that only the two of them could feel... 
It was in that moment that he couldn’t see Judith as a friend anymore. 
But he felt scared to come out and say it. So he resorted to this.
Just as he was about to leave the note and flower at the spot Judith always sat at, someone walked in.
David Willows. Judith’s closest friend.
The Hufflepuff wizard looked surprised to see Talbott there. More importantly what was in his hand.
David was aware of Judith having a secret admirer. It was hard not to, seeing how the girl would have a flower tucked behind one of her ears and she would be smiling down at a piece of paper with a blush.
It’s rare for Judith to turn into a giggling school girl. So David found it a bit strange, but overall happy for his mate.
Though, it didn’t squash his curiosity on who could be this mysterious admirer.
Guess he found out the answer to his own...
There was a tense silence between the two wizards. Talbott felt his face flush and blurted out the first thing that came to mind,
“This isn’t what it looks like.” Brown eyes narrowed out of suspicion. 
“So it is what it looks like,” he countered, slowly backing out of the classroom. First thing that came to mind was to find his little friend and tell her about her secret admirer. 
Who may not be really an “admirer” based on his response...
“David, wait,” Talbott called out, feeling a sense of panic building. The Hufflepuff wizard paused, waiting for him to continue.
“L-Look, I-I... that’s not what I meant. I would never do anything to hurt Judith, if that’s what you’re thinking. I...” An arch brow could be found on David’s face as he watched Talbott trail off. The Ravenclaw wizard swallowed briefly before forcing the words out before he could think about them too hard,
“I really like Judith and would like to take her out on a date.” Both brows inched closer to his hairline as David silently processed the confession. Talbott fidgeted under the Hufflepuff’s unwavering gaze, waiting for him to say something. 
He never confessed his feelings for the Hufflepuff outwardly before. The only other person knows about his feelings was his best (and infuriating) mate, Andre. And that was only because he got ahold of Talbott’s journal where he wrote about the girl and saw the few sketches he drew of her.
“So do it.” Red eyes blinked.
“T-that’s it? I don’t even know how to ask! I never even been on a date before,” he exclaimed, feeling the panic come back full force. David’s gaze soften ever so slightly.
“Just approach her gently and ask if she’d like to go out somewhere. Maybe to the Three Broomsticks or even the Owlery if you fancy somewhere more private,” he advised. Talbott mulled over David’s words silently, already having a place in mind.
“...That could work... Thank you David,” Talbott responded softly. David gave the Ravenclaw wizard an encouraging smile.
“You’re welcome, Tal. Now, go get her.”
---------------------------
Talbott was standing the empty Courtyard, sweating under his class robes. He sent his owl to Judith, asking her to meet him during lunch. He knew for a fact it’ll be empty so they’ll have some privacy.
The longer he waited, the more he could feel his heart start to pound in his chest.
That’s when he saw her stepping out into the Courtyard. Talbott quickly wiped his sweaty palms against his slacks as Judith approached. 
He could spy the hibiscus flower tucked behind her scarred ear.
‘Good Gods, she’s so beautiful...’
“Hello Talbott,” the girl greeted softly. A small shiver rang down his spine as he heard her voice. He was always interested in hearing her voice, especially with her accent. It was quite clear that she’s not originally from Scotland, or Britain for that matter. However the uniqueness of her voice wasn’t the only thing that captured his interest.
The young teenager couldn’t put his finger on it but he swears he heard that accent somewhere before but can’t figure out where.
“Hello, Judith... thanks for meeting me,” he said. Judith nodded, causing her high ponytail to sway behind her.
“Of course, Talbott. You mentioned in your note that you had something important to ask me,” she said.
‘Moment of truth... there’s no turning back now, Winger...’
“Um, yes... I-I was wondering... W-Would you like to go out on a date with me?” Judith’s good eye widen sufficiently.
“Wha...” Talbott sheepishly rubbed the back of his neck.
“I-I wanted to get your attention... why I was leaving you flowers and notes,” he confessed. He watched as Judith looked around the area as if she was looking for someone to jump out at any moment. He coughed into his fist to gain the Hufflepuff’s attention again.
“S-so... would you like to go out with m-me, little bird?” Judith could feel her face turning red with each passing second.
‘Talbott is my secret admirer... this is really happening...’ 
“I-I would love to... if you’re sure,” she said, ducking her head. Talbott felt his body move on autopilot, taking her chin in hand to raise her eyes to meet his.
“I’m positive, little bird,” he whispered, giving her soft smile. He was rewarded with one of her own. 
Unknown to the two, another person was spying on this interaction. David smirked, sketching the moment to pester the two love birds later on...
-----------------------------
“WHAT THE FUCK DID I JUST GET MYSELF INTO,” Judith shouted as she paced about the empty Hufflepuff Common Room. 
Well, almost empty. 
David was sitting on the couch with a small smirk on his face. Judith didn’t even need to tell him what happened that is causing her to having a mini breakdown.
After all, he seen them himself...
“What in the seven hells are you smirking for?! I’m in the middle of a crisis, you git!” David snapped out of when he caught the glare in his little friend’s eyes. A small shiver of fear threaten to run down his spine but he held it back.
“Believe me I know, a little birdie told me.” As soon as those words left his mouth, he regretted it as pale gold eyes stared at him blankly.
“I’m sorry, mind repeating that?” Although that was worded as a request, David knew it was a demand. A demand he better fulfill in the next minute unless he wants to return to his assigned bed in the Hospital Wing.
“I... may have convinced Tal to ask you. And before you say anything, he wanted to before I suggested anything,” he rushed out. A few seconds ticked by before Judith broke the silence.
“WHAT?!” He winced as her shriek pierced his eardrums before replying,
“He came to me and I said he should go for it.” Judith resumed pacing, mumbling under her breath.
“Sweet Gods have mercy, there’s no way this is real. No wizard in his right mind would consider liking me without having some kind of motive. And I said yes like a lovestruck schoolgirl! What am I going to do, what am I going to do?! Maybe I shouldn’t show up, Talbott isn’t serious about taking me out on a date...” 
David narrowed his eyes at the pacing witch before letting out a frustrated sigh. Standing up, he walks up to his anxious mate, placing his hands firmly on her shoulders to stop her pacing. 
“Now you listen to me, Judith Harris. You’re fuckin’ gorgeous and a good person to the boot. I think that Tal is dead serious about wanting to take you out on a date, he’d be a fool not to. Give it a go and if it doesn’t work out, then that’s life. Also, if Tal really is bein’ an arsehole, I’ll kick his arse from here to London and back again.” Despite her best efforts, Judith ended up giggling a bit.
“You would know better not to send him to London. Papa would mount his head on a wall,” she said with a small head shake. David chuckled alongside her, grinning at the fact he could ease his little friend.
“There we go! I don’t doubt he would. Now come on, let’s get you ready for a date, yeah,” David said with an encouraging smile. Judith blushed a bit.
“Uh.. yeah, we can do that...”
“Good, let’s find Andre. And don’t worry, I’ll make sure he doesn’t put you something ridiculous.” Judith rolled her eyes at that.
“He should know better not to try. You wouldn’t survive between you, me, and my dad.” David gave a smirk.
“Exactly, now let’s go find that style wizard.” With newfound confidence, Judith beamed at her fellow House mate.
“Yeah, let’s go!”
-------------------
Andre was just putting the final touches on the last dress he created when he heard a whistle sound off behind him.
“Andre, we got a mission for you. First date emergency.” Andre smirked as he turned to find David and Judith standing behind him. 
He stepped back and waved his hand with a flourish, showing off his work.
“Bold of you to assume I didn't see this coming when Talbott started waxing lyrical about asking Judith out,” he said with a chuckle. 
“Am I the only one who hasn’t noticed,” Judith asked aloud, a blush staining her cheeks.
“Yes,” both males responded bluntly. They both received a glare for their sass.
“Just shut up and explain to me my options,” she hissed. Andre graced her with a gentle smile before clearing his throat.
“I have three dresses for you today, Judith. One sleeveless with a black and red rose pattern. The second green and long-sleeved with a purple lining at the bottom of the skirt. The last is purple and gold, almost like a ball gown. Take your pick,” he encouraged gently. The two males watched as the small witch carefully studied each dress with wary eyes.
“Just how formal is this date? Do either of you know,” she asked. She only wore a dress one other time and that was the Celestial Ball. The dress was beautiful, but she couldn’t help but feel weird in it.
Especially when the only other thing that was eye catching about her dress was her scar...
“Something smart casual I reckon,” David reckon, breaking the girl’s train of thought. Judith did one last glance over at her options before deciding.
“I don’t want to look like an idiot by showing up overdressed... I’ll go with the black and red one...” Andre grinned, as if he know that she would pick that one.
“Ah, my personal favorite! You’re look fantastic in it!” Judith scoffed as she took the dress and ducked behind the changing screen.
“I’ll believe it when I see it, Egwu. This dress screams, “Outside my comfort zone.”, she retorted as she stripped and wriggled into the dress. She could hear Andre chuckling.
“You’ll love it, I’m sure of it.” Judith struggled with the zipper before getting it on. She slowly stepped out to show the guys. Andre gave her a bright smile.
“You look lovely,” he complimented. David placed a hand on the style wizard’s shoulder, as if to hold him back.
“Let her be the judge of that Egwu. What d'you think Judith,” he asked his little friend. Judith shuffled in place, a dark blush on her cheeks.
“ I like it… a lot actually… you guys sure it’s not… too much,” she asked. The dress fitted her perfectly and ended right above the knee. It showed off her developing hourglass figure thanks to her religious training sessions and natural genes.
‘So much skin...’ she thought as she rubbed her arm. 
“Looks perfect to me,” David said with a smile.
“You look fabulous,” Andre chimed in.  
‘Well I have my votes of confidence...’
“I-I guess I’ll take it then,” she decided with a small head scratch. David gave her a small mischievous grin.
“Right now, Judith, go get your bird boy.” Judith could feel her face heat up further but she gave her House mate a thunderous glare.
“David...” David’s grin turned into a nervous one at her tone. 
He knew it well. 
The “I’ll break your kneecaps if you don’t stop right now” tone.
He quickly ran out the room while calling over his shoulder,
“Enjoy your date, Little Tigress!”
Judith pinched the bridge of nose, mentally counting backwards from 10.
“That bloody git,” she grumbled under her breath. Andre shrugged before letting out a laugh.
“Maybe, but I'd say he's right. Talbott has been looking forward to asking you out. Good luck Judith,” he said before leaving the room himself. 
“T-Thanks again, Andre,” she called after him before she was officially left alone.
‘Talbott being obvious about his feelings? Hell must’ve frozen over. And I normally would notices things but I never saw this? Ugh, no time to think about it. I don’t wanna be late…’
------------------------------
Talbott was already at the date spot, nervously biting his lip as his looked at his watch for the umpteenth time.
‘I hope Judith has a good time. Damn it Winger, why did you have to fall so hard for her?’ he mentally cursed himself. He could already feel like his heart was going to beat out of his chest and his date wasn’t even there yet.
He wanted everything to be perfect for her...
Speaking of said witch, she was walking up the tea shop, taking in the site of where her first date will be.
‘I would have never thought Talbott would choose a place like this. It’s rather cute...’ she thought with a soft giggle. She could spy the Ravenclaw wizard standing inside, looking at his watch. 
She drew in a deep breath before releasing it. Smoothing down her dress, she walked inside.
“H-Hey T-Talbott... I’m here, I-I hope I’m not late...” Talbott turned around to greet his date but felt the words die on the tip of his tongue.
‘Oh sweet Merlin, how the hell did I get so lucky...’ he thought as he took her in from her curled locs to her white sandals. He caught her shy shuffle before he realized he still had yet to say anything.
‘WORDS, WINGER! USE THEM!’
“H-Hi Judith, y-you look nice,” he greeted. He got a sweet blush and shy smile.
“T-Thank you, Talbott. Y-You look pretty smart yourself,” she said, trying to calm her beating heart.
Talbott cleared his throat, trying to ignore the fluttery feeling in his chest when he heard her compliment.
“Thank you, sh-shall we take a seat,” he offered. 
‘Goddammit Winger, don't screw this up...’ Judith gifted him a gentle smile.
“Yes, of course,” she replied softly, walking past him to sit at the table near the window. The wizard was quick to follow, beating her to her chosen seat. Pulling out her chair, Talbott gave the Hufflepuff a shy smile. Judith stifled a giggle.
‘He’s so nervous, it’s adorable...’
“Such a gentleman, thank you,” she cooed at him as she took a seat. Talbott felt himself flush a bit as he pushed in her seat before claiming the one across from her.
“Tea and scones I believe are the most popular item here, shall we order some,” he asked, trying to soothe his nerves.
“Yes, that’s perfectly fine with me,” the young girl replied. Judith paused before a moment before speaking again.
“It’s nice to know there’s a little tea shop in Hogsmeade. Do you come here often?” Talbott rubbed the back of neck, sheepishly.
“Sometimes... it’s tucked away from the main street so it isn’t always busy... Besides, I didn’t want anyone interfering with our date.” Judith chuckled a bit.
“Well, aren’t you thoughtful,” she said with a smile. The high points of the wizard’s cheeks darken a bit before he cleared his throat.
“Thank you, I’m glad you think so...” The soft clicking of heeled shoes approached the pair’s table, interrupting the two’s conversation. Madam Puddifoot gave the young couple a warm smile.
“Hello m’dears. Sorry for the wait, what can I get for you today,” she asked. Talbott cleared his throat.
“Oh, um... the tea and scones please,” he answered. 
‘Definitely not the most confident response...’ he thought with a grimace. He wasn’t given a chance to ponder on this as the shop owner asked another question.
“Any specific type of tea you would like dearies?” Judith perked up to answer.
“Hibiscus, if you have it. Please and thank you,” she chirped sweetly.
“A-And nothing that can be spilled too easily please,” Talbott chimed in.
‘Why did I say that?!’
Madam Puddifoot let out a small giggle.
“Tea you can’t spill you say? I’ll see what I can do m’dears, in the meantime, enjoy your first date,” she said before walking back into the kitchen.
‘Ah... young love...’
Judith let out a high pitch sneeze, which reminded Talbott of a baby Kneazle.
“How did she know that this was our first date? W-well, it’s a first for me,” Judith asked, bewildered at the woman’s intuition. 
“I-It’s a first for me as well... it might be because we come across as awkward? That’s what I’ve heard first dates can be like,” Talbott mumbled. Judith flushed out of embarrassment.
“O-oh... do you think we look awkward together then,” she deduced, nervous to hear her crush’s answer. Red eyes widen and Talbott resisted the urge to slap his forehead.
“Oh no! Um, dating has just never been my thing... I think Madam Puddifoot just picked up on that... I do like you, Judith, and I appreciate you for coming out with me,” Talbott said shyly. The girl’s blush worsen at the confession.
“O-oh, I-I understand. Even though y-you could’ve fooled me, haha... I’m happy to be here with you, Talbott,” Judith replied in kind, twirling a loc in between her fingers.
‘He likes me! He really likes me! Oh my stars, there has to be some sort of catch...’ Just as the thought crossed her mind, Judith saw Tonks and Charlie walk in and take the table behind the oblivious Ravenclaw wizard.
‘Idiot! You just jinxed yourself! Okay, it’s fine! Talbott hasn’t noticed them, so just play it cool!’ Judith cleared her throat before giving a nervous smile.
“S-so, tell me about yourself,” she stated. Talbott regarded her with an raised brow before answering,
“Oh well, um... I like to write poetry in my free time, usually when I’m alone. I like to take flights around the school on occasion... how about you?”
“W-well... when I’m not curse breaking or practicing Quidditch, I like to spend time drawing, singing, reading, spending time with my magical creatures, and practice some Muggle forms of fighting... a few of those activities can be a bit difficult seeing how I have one good eye, but that’s all you need to make it work.” Talbott was leaning towards the Hufflepuff, intrigued.
“I see, that’s rather interesting. I’d love to at learn a bit how Muggles fight, seeing how majority of them can’t use wands. And I’d love to hear you sing.” Judith gave a shy smile.
“I-I can teach you a thing or two. My papa taught me everything I know so I can protect myself. You mentioned wanting to be an Auror one day, s-so this would be a good way to protect yourself, just in case your disarmed. A-and not a lot of people know I can sing... but I don’t mind doing so for you one day,” Judith offered. Talbott smiled.
“I’d like that... very much...” From behind the unknowing wizard, the girl’s two friends gave her a thumbs up. Judith’s cheeks flushed a bit at this.
“S-say Talbott... do you mind if I ask you something?” The young teen gave his date an owl-like head tilt.
“Of course, Judith. What is it,” he asked. Sharp canine teeth gently nibbled on the soft flesh of a bottom lip.
“W-Why... why do you like me? I-I thought you liked to “fly solo”?” 
‘Oh... it’s that question…’
Talbott took a deep breath, urging his racing heart to calm down before giving his answer,
“I-I… W-Well… I can tell there’s something about you, Judith. I can tell you’ve been through a lot, but that has never stopped you from being kind. Even with your kindness, you’re never the doormat everyone claims Hufflepuffs to be. That fierceness of your personality soften by the kindness of your heart… it’s magnetic… truthfully I was jealous when I heard that Andre took you to the Celestial Ball…” Gold eyes blinked at him like a deer caught in headlights before the girl shook her head.
“O-oh… there’s nothing wrong showing kindness onto others… well if they give me a reason not to that is. The way I see it is that everyone has a story, a bit of kindness can mean a lot. I-I know it did for me when I met Professor Flitwick and after everyone found out about my scar…” Talbott raised a brow at the girl. He remembers hearing about that incident from their first year. Though, he can tell there’s an element missing in that personal tidbit she just shared but chose not to ask.
“A-and I didn’t really go to the Ball with Andre. He just so happened to ask me for a dance. I was too shy to ask the person I really wanted to go with… not like he show up to the dance anyways,” Judith mumbled. Talbott was still able to catch what she said a frown.
Despite his distaste for large crowds, if she would’ve asked him to the Ball, he would’ve accepted…
“O-oh, I see… whoever you wanted to ask must be a lucky fellow… I know I would’ve felt that way,” he said, rubbing the back of neck sheepishly. Judith felt her eye twitch as she blurted out,
“It was you, bird brain!” Red eyes gazed into pale gold ones, stunned.
‘She actually wanted to attend the Ball with me?’
“M-me?! I-I mean, don’t get me wrong, I-I’m thrilled… but why me?” ‘And why not Andre?’
Judith ducked her head, too embarrassed to meet her date’s gaze.
“I… well… I always liked you… e-ever since we met in the Great Hall. Since you’ve taught me how to fly. Since David and I helped you find your mother’s necklace… Y-you’re mysterious in a magnetic way. Intelligent, witty, and a little sarcastic which I find amusing… you have many layers to you that make me curious… and I do find you rather handsome as well…” Talbott blinked for aw few moments because breaking out into a soft smile.
“Thank you, little bird. That was really kind of you to say. And I had fun teaching you, I always looked forward to it.” Judith took a peek to find those red eyes gazing upon her with fondness alongside the gentle smile. The young witch felt her heart skip a beat.
“Y-You’re welcome,” she replied softly. The pair stared at each other for a few moments in a comfortable silence. Talbott looked ready to say something until,
“WHOO! Go Judith!” Followed by a loud crash. Talbott quickly turned around to find a nervous looking Hufflepuff and Gryffindor next to a table filled with broken china.
“What in the name of Merlin-?!” Judith facepalmed at her house mate’s clumsiness.
“Damn it, Tonks…”
“Whoops,” Tonks mumbled, scratching the back of her head. The sound of heeled shoes clicking loudly towards the front of the shop was the their only warning before Madam Puddifoot appeared with a shocked gasp.
“Oh my! Look at this mess! Terribly sorry m’dears but I’m afraid I have to ask you all to leave so I can clean this up.” Talbott felt his heart sink.
“What?! Damn it, you two!” Tonks and Charlie flinched at the sight of glaring red eyes and a fierce scowl thrown their way. Judith simply shook her head with a soft sigh.
“Don’t worry about it, Talbott. Let’s just go…” Talbott returned his gaze to his date, saddened.
“I suppose so… I’m sorry this went so badly, Judith,” he said. The young girl stood with a shake of her head, walking up to his side of the table.
“Hey, don’t think of it that way. We could always walk back together… if you want,” she shyly offered. Talbott smiled.
“I’d like that…” Judith silently offered her hand to the Ravenclaw wizard, which he took before standing up himself. Talbott silently marveled at the feeling of her hand in his. Compared to his, her hand was small with long, elegant fingers. Her could feel a bit of roughness on her fingertips and palm but her skin was overall soft. Not only that...
‘It’s like her hand fits perfectly into mine...’
In the midst of his observation, Judith glanced over her shoulder, sending a glare over at her friends. They shuddered a bit.
“H-Hey Tonks, why don’t we head to Three Broomsticks. Butterbeer on me,” Charlie offered as he quickly ushered Tonks towards the door. 
“Y-Yeah! Good idea Charlie,” Tonks agreed. The two spared one last glance over at the couple mouthing their apologies before leaving. Talbott did his best not to chuckle.
As sweet as his little date may be, she could be scary if she wanted to.
Judith smiled up at her date, gently squeezing his hand.
“C’mon Talbott, let’s go.” The wizard nodded before they headed out of the shop and into the night.
“Oh wow, we’ve must’ve been in there for quite sometime. The stars are starting to come out,” Judith mused aloud. This gave Talbott an idea.
“So they are and it’s a clear night too... Judith, I have a suggestion, if you’re interested...” Pale gold eyes regarded him curiously.
“I’m listening...”
“I was thinking... with the stars out... possibly we could go stargazing? The courtyard, Astronomy Tower, or even the Creature Reserve could be ideal locations to do so.” Talbott watched as full lips split into a grin as the little witch danced on the balls of her feet.
“Ooo~ I would love that! We can go to the Creature Reserve, maybe you could meet some of the creatures I’ve adopted.” Talbot smiled, pleased that he could make his date smile.
“Great! I believe the grasslands would be the best place. If we run into any of your creatures, I would be more than happy to meet them.” Judith giggled as she tugged Talbott along.
“Then why are we still standing here? Let’s go, bird boy!” Talbott chuckled, allowing himself to be dragged away by his cute date.
-----------------------
“It was a good idea to come here. I never thought to come here at night, it’s so beautiful and peaceful,” Judith said as they walked along the grasslands.
“It is, truly. Where would you like to sit? I’m sure you know this place much better than me.” Judith paused before speaking again,
“I would hate to ruin your suit by sitting in the grass or in a tree. I know there’s a rock formation where my Diricrawl prefers to be, we can sit there.” Talbott gazed at the little Hufflepuff curiously.
“I’ve never met a Diricrawl before, but I do know they’re very skittish creatures,” he commented as he followed Judith to the spot mentioned. The girl smiled.
“Rufflet grew to be comfortable around me, I’m sure when she sees that I’m here with you, she’ll open up. She’s a sweet little thing.” Talbott’s heart sighed at the sight of the animated witch.
‘Just when I thought she couldn’t get any cuter...’
Judith gave his hand a small squeeze and they continued to walk along the grassland.
“I hope you’re not feeling too disappointed about tonight,” she mentioned softly. Talbott shook his head.
“No, I’m just sorry that our date got spoiled. I hope you’re not too disappointed with how it went...” Judith let out a soft laugh before looping her arm with Talbott, stepping closer to the Ravenclaw.
“Not at all. I’m happy to even spend my first date with you,” she said with a small smile. Talbott felt a blush blossom on the high points of his cheeks.
“I am too, Judith... I’m glad you had a good time...” The girl’s smile widen a bit, a teasing glint could be seen in her eyes.
“How can I not? You were so nervous, I found it rather adorable.” Talbott chuckled at this.
“Was I that obvious?” A smirk was the girl’s only answer. Talbott shook his head as another chuckle escaped him. The pair walked in silence before finally reaching the rock formation. The pair settled next to each other side by side as they looked up at the night sky.
“I wonder if we’re about to see Aquarius tonight. It’s my star sign,” Talbott said thoughtfully. Judith perked up a bit at this information.
“O-oh! S-so you’re birthday is during the school year,” she asked. Talbott let out a soft hum in confirmation.
“Yes, the 7th of February. I try to keep my head down that time of year... How about you?” Judith fiddled with a loc, a small frown forming on her lips.
“O-oh um, it is... d-during the s-school year I mean... but I don’t really celebrate it...” Talbott bit his lip, worried that he upset her.
“O-oh, I see. If it’s too painful, you don’t need to tell me if you don’t want to...” Judith shook her head.
“My birthday is the 17th of October, the same as Professor Flitwick... only my dad and paternal grandmother would celebrate my birthday with me. Once she died and Papa and I moved to London, we tried to make the most out of it. My mother... she didn’t really care enough to even tell me happy birthday. Before his disappearance, Jamal would send an owl telling me happy birthday at least. Ever since I got to Hogwarts, I only celebrated with Professor Flitwick in his office. Other than that... it’s just another day filled with curse-breaking or practicing for Quidditch season...” Talbott hung onto the girl’s every word as she opened up more about herself. He empathized with her, seeing how he hasn’t really celebrated his birthday ever since his parents died.
But he wanted to change that experience for her.
“I see... if you’d like, could I join you for the celebration next year.” Gold eyes blinked owlishly at him.
“You... you would really want to spend my birthday with me,” she asked slowly, a small seed of hope blossoming from within her chest. Talbott nodded.
“Y-yes, of course.” Talbott blushed as the girl suddenly hugged him and slowly returned the unexpected embrace.
“That would be amazing, Talbott. Even though I can’t celebrate with my dad like how I use to, I know he would be happy that I have someone else to celebrate with me. Just so you know, I’m gonna find a way to make your birthday special.” Talbott smiled, touched by the girl’s words.
“Just as long you expect the same from me, little bird...” Judith blushed, separating herself from the Ravenclaw before he could see. 
“S-so... you’re interested in astrology too? I remember spending nights stargazing with my dad and grandmother back in my homeland...” Talbott nodded, mentally storing that little tidbit before answering,
“Yes, I am. However, I’m no fan of horoscopes or the belief that they influence anything in our personalities. Though I must admit, they’re fascinating to explore.” Judith let out a chuckle.
“That’s fair but consider it this way: They can give you an idea on how a person could possibly be.” Talbott turned towards his date with a smirk.
“Is that so?” Judith nodded.
“Take me for an example. I’m a Libra, but I balance out my personality, see? Sweet and fierce. Aloof but caring. And so on...” Talbott cocked his head at this, thoughtful.
“That’s an accurate observation... as an Aquarius, I’m apparently intellectual and analytical. Which I suppose I am if you count my poetry as being intellectually minded,” he mused. Judith nodded slowly at this, looking Talbott in his eyes.
“Depending on the person, poetry can convey deeper thoughts and emotions. Taking on double meanings using a play on words. It can be well thought out or straightforward.” Talbott stared wide eyed at the girl before looking away, coughing into his fist to hide his blush. 
“I see... that is... that is a very good analysis,” he commented.
‘Brains and beauty, what more could a wizard ask for,’ he pondered helplessly. In the midst of his thoughts, Judith fiddled with her fingers, embarrassed.
“S-Sorry, I do find poetry to rather interesting...” Without thinking, Talbott found himself saying,
“Perhaps I could teach you how to write it some time?” Judith perked up at this.
“R-Really? I would love that. Andre has mentioned that he’s seen you writing a lot more recently...” The Ravenclaw fought back a exasperated sigh. 
Of course his nosey mate would tell his crush this. 
“Well, yes I have. I’ve been trying to improve, often taking inspiration from things I find beautiful,” he mumbled, sparing a glace at the Hufflepuff. Judith had her head cocked to the side, much like a curious owlet.
‘Damn it, why must she be this cute?!’
“And what has inspired you lately, if I may ask?” Even though he knew the question was coming, Talbott couldn’t help but to freeze.
“Um... well... y-you actually,” he said slowly. He looked at the girl to find a wide pale gold eye staring back at him.
“M-me?! B-but, I’m not...” Judith fought the lump in her throat that formed around the final word. Talbott frown as Judith trailed off.
“Don’t talk like that, you are beautiful. Any of those idiots who bullied you would be lucky if you so much as glanced at them.” Now it was the Hufflepuff’s turn to frown.
“None of them would even look at me after I kicked their asses in first year. My social standing wasn’t that great even before the incident, that fight made it even worse. If people were scared before found out about my scar, they were terrified after the fact,” she grumbled, staring at her hands. Talbott could see the anger in her eyes, masking away the hurt that lingered underneath. Unconsciously, he reached out to gently raised the girl’s gaze to meet his own.
“I-I see what you mean... I’m sorry, little bird. I should’ve picked my words more carefully... What I mean is... I find you fascinating. And well, if there are people left in this school too short-sighted to see past your scar or your involvement with the Cursed Vaults. Those people are fools.” Judith could feel her heart race as she looked in Talbott’s eyes. She could see the sincerity in his firm gaze, making her blush.
“O-Oh, that makes sense... T-Though I-I’m curious. You... you weren’t scared of me when we first met? Or have you been secretly watching me? You strike me as a silent observer, I know I am...” The Ravenclaw smiled as he let his hand drop.
“No, I wasn’t. I was actually surprised you weren’t intimidated by me when you and David approached me about becoming Animagi. And... I do admit, I occasionally think of you and watch what you do in class but that’s about it. And I suppose I am... I do prefer to wait and see before passing on any judgement,” Talbott replied. Judith cracked a grin before laughing.
“Maybe a little nervous, but I wouldn’t say intimidated. I was scared you would find us annoying. And I’m genuinely surprised you don’t have more admirers or been on more dates. There are plenty of pretty and smart girls who don’t have a target on their back,” Judith said aloud, looking up at the celestial bodies above them. Talbott let out a soft hum at this.
“Maybe.. but to be fair, I’ve never been interested in dating until you came along...” Judith blushed, sparing a glance at the Ravenclaw.
“Because I’m fascinating?” Red eyes gazed upon the girl’s face with a soft look.
“Yes...” came the breathless response. A small shiver ran down the girl’s spine.
“If you don’t mind me asking, how so,” she asked quietly, looking up at the wizard under her curly lashes. Talbott nibbled at his lower lip before answering,
“Like I said before, you come across as warm to your friends, but you’re a force of nature towards your enemies. Like a tigress, you tear across the Quidditch Pitch. Your eyes...” Judith blinked out of surprise when the boy leaned closer to her face.
“Your eyes are captivating pools of gold. Breathtaking, beautiful, and so soulful... They’re bright like the sun and hold a comforting warmth like that of a flame alit at a fireplace. They speak for you when words can’t. That’s just some qualities I can name right now...” Judith fanned her heated face as she glanced away from her date. 
‘I wasn’t expecting that answer...’
“That’s a rather unique answer. Something tells me I’m gonna find out more about how you see me,” she said when she finally got her blush under control. Talbott smiled at his adorable date before looking at the starry sky.
“I hope to find out more too...” Judith looked over at the handsome wizard, finding herself scooting closer.
“I just hope you like what you see...” She saw the smile grow a fraction wider.
“I’m sure I will...” Judith noticed how close how their hands were before forcing her gaze upwards as well.
‘I held his hand before, why am I suddenly acting so shy about it?!’ 
“There’s so many stars tonight and they’re all so bright. Makes you really feel small under what seems like a never-ending universe,” she said aloud. Talbott’s hand shifted closer as he leaned back a bit, his fingertips coming into contact with Judith’s.
“It definitely seems like it when you put that way...” Talbott trailed off, perking up as a stream of light shot across the sky.
“Look a shooting star!” Judith perked up alongside him.
“Oh! Quick, make a wish,” she said. Talbott glanced at the girl, biting his lip.
“I wish... that we could do this again some time,” he whispered, no longer looking at the sky but the beautiful enigma next to him. Judith noticed this and willed herself to speak.
“T-That’s a wish I would be happy to make come true...” Talbott’s smile could rival some of the stars twinkling above them.
“I’m glad, thank you little bird,” he said softly. Judith reached out, intertwining their hands together before looking away.
“Y-you’re welcome, Talbott...” The young wizard felt his heart flutter at the feeling of her hand in his, squeezing the smaller limb. 
‘Yup, I’m too deep in this... Crap...’
Much to the flustered Hufflepuff’s relief, a little Horse guardian walked up to the pair, curious to know who was with his caretaker. Talbott was surprised to see the magical creature boldly walk up to him.
“Hello, little one,” he said softly as blue eyes blinked at him. The young Prolock walked up closer, nuzzling the Ravenclaw’s leg. Slightly bewildered, Talbott turned to Judith, who had a loving smile on her face.
“That’s Baron, one of my personal favorites. He was incredibly skittish at first, but grew to be more comfortable around me and the other creatures I have. He gives the best cuddles.” Talbott felt his heart melt as he watch the Hufflepuff gush over the horse guardian. 
“I see... I never been the best with creatures outside of the owls in the Owlery,” he said. Raising a tentative hand, Talbott reached down and began stroking Baron’s head. The magical creature perked up, leaning into his hand happily. Judith could see Baron tail wagging as Talbott scratched him behind his ears. 
The girl let out an elegant snort.
“But yet you managed to tame a Hippogriff? Come on now, Talbott. Give yourself more credit, I know Baron does. He already likes you,” she insisted. The wizard blushed a bit at the praise before chuckling.
“I suppose I can give Care of Magical Creatures another go...” A bright smile made its way on Judith’s face.
“You definitely should! I would be more than happy to help you. I’ve been learning about magical creatures ever since I was able to read. Plus, spending time with Professor Kettleburn and Hagrid helps a lot.” Talbott could feel his heart fluttering at the possibility of spending even more time with the girl. Talbott smiled at her.
“I’d like that very much, little bird. I do hope to spend some time with a Knarl. I’m fond of them, they’re just the right amount of suspicious.” Judith giggled.
“Then you and Ash would become fast friends. Little rascal kept biting my hands every time I tried to care for him,” she said with a playful eyeroll. The boy couldn’t help but to chuckle at the fond exasperation in her tone.
“I would love to meet him.” 
“Play your cards right, and one day you will.” 
‘If I play my cards, maybe one day I could have your heart…’
Talbott glanced at his watch with a sigh. It was getting late and they had to head back before Filch becomes an issue.
“Shall we head back to the castle? It is getting late.” Judith let out a dramatic sigh, not really wish to leave just yet.
“If we must...” Talbott chuckled at her.
“Believe me little bird, I wish the night could go on forever as well... maybe I should’ve wished for that instead, he playfully pondered aloud. He got the giggle he was looking for.
“I don’t think even a shooting star could fulfill that. Though, we could always walk back extra slow,” she suggested. The teenage boy squeezed her hand with a boyish grin.
“Yeah, we can do that...” With a few scratches from Talbott and a hug from Judith, the pair sent the Porlock on his way before making their way back to the castle.
“So, are you worried that Andre will grill you for information about how tonight went?” The Ravenclaw let out an exasperated groan, much to the Hufflepuff’s amusement.
“Andre is a good bloke who means well... but by Merlin is he one of the biggest gossips at school. It wouldn’t surprise me if I get ambushed the moment I step foot into the Common Room.” Red eyes glanced at the girl.
“What about yourself? Would David and the others do the same,” Talbott asked. Judith rolled her eyes.
“David is always pulling my leg one way or another. And I honestly didn’t expect Tonks and Charlie to crash our date. I don’t even know how they knew where we were. But I do expect the student body to make a big deal about it. A lot of them don’t have much to do with their spare time but gossip,” she sighed. Talbott gave a sympathetic nod.
“That is very true, they could do with keeping their nose out of peoples’ business.” Judith sheepishly rubbed the back of her neck, looking up at the boy.
“I hope you don’t regret going out with me once your peace becomes compromised...” The slightly larger hand holding hers squeezed gently.
“I think it’s well worth the risk, little bird,” Talbott reassured, giving his date a soft smile. One he would reserve for her and her only. Judith felt her face heat up at the sight, urging her fluttering heart to calm down.
“I-If you say so, Talbott... but I do have a serious question for you...” Talbott let out a soft hum, waiting for her to continue.
“I-I-If w-we do continue g-going out... h-how do you feel about meeting my d-dad?” Talbott pondered over this.
Talbott has heard about the 6′4 giant of a man who was the girl’s father. His first appearance was during their second year, when Judith tried out for the Beater position on the Hufflepuff Quidditch position. Andre had burst into his dorm room, gushing how he got to meet the man. He was an ex-Beater when he attended Hogwarts many years ago and was considered to be one of the greatest for his time. He didn’t take it on as profession however, probably to try to be present at home for any family he would have. The one thing that is undeniable is the love he had for the girl next him. While he’s never seen it, he can tell how much Judith adores her dad and how much he adores her. By the sounds of it, there’s no mother figure in her life so her dad is all that she has.
Talbott wanted to be with the girl, and meeting her dad would be a massive step for the both of them...
It was a step he was more than happy to take.
“I-I would be honored. Meeting a parent is always intimidating b-but I’d liked to give it a try... especially for you...” Judith fought back the blush as she smiles brightly at her date.
“At least you’re honest. Papa can be intimidating but he’s a warm and wise man. I think he’ll love you.” Talbott willed himself to breath as her words settled in his mind. If what she’s saying is true, then he could have a family. Something he hasn’t had since he was 9 years old.
He can’t wait for that day.
“I look forward to it, little bird...” Judith let out an airy laugh.
“I bet, bird boy... I do hope we can do this again soon... I never said this before but... I really do like you...” Talbott gave her hand another squeeze.
“As do I. And thank you, Judith. Perhaps we could take another trip to Madame Puddifoot’s with no interference.” Judith giggled at this.
“I would like that, I never got my “unspillable” hibiscus tea tonight.” Talbott chuckled, deciding to play along.
“Very true, perhaps she’ll give us the recipe. I’d like to try it sometime.” A smirk tugged on the girl’s full lips.
“I think she would have to kill us first.” Talbott returned it with one of his own.
“Or swear a blood pact to never tell another soul lest we suffer a horrific death. Judith threw her head, let out a warm laugh.
“That would sound about right. Afterall, everyone has their secrets.” Judith said this as they approached the Hufflepuff Common Room. Talbott waited for to finish entering the secret passage to enter her Common Room before speaking again.
“I hope to find out yours, I had a wonderful time tonight...” His hand that held hers, slipped free before finding the little Hufflepuff’s waist. Judith squeaked when Talbott pulled her flushed against his body, nuzzling her temple. Judith gazed up at the boy with a flushed face.
“I-I... I-If you plan on sticking around, you just might...” Judith stood on her toes, pressing her lips against the Ravenclaw’s cheek. Talbott stared at her, slightly dazed as she pulled away and out of his grasp.
“G-Goodnight Talbott, s-sweet dreams.” With that parting, the girl hurried into her common room. Talbott stood there for a few seconds longer before a smile broke out on his face.
He turned to leave the basements to his own common room, touching his cheek in the meanwhile.
‘I think I may have found my mate for life...’

“Can’t you stay a little longer?” Talbott pouted his lips at you like a little kid for the upteenth time. He's been doing this for the last five minutes when you told him you had to leave for today. He looked annoyingly cute and you had to laugh a bit at seeing this side of him.
After he shared his story with you, you both went back to his house, hand in hand with the friendly silence being your never leaving guide. It seemed to you that the barriers between you and Talbott had completely subsided. He expressed his feelings and thoughts much more - yet a distinctive red spread across his cheeks as he asked you to fall asleep with him.
“Are... Are you sure?” Was your uneasy question for reassurance. His response was rather unpredictable; he came to you and stroked your cheek with the greatest tenderness and fondness in his eyes that you could have easily mistaken for love. “Yes. Right now I want to be with you more than anything in the world. I never felt so sure about anything more than about this right now.“ His other hand gently stroked your hair, and you couldn't take your eyes off his. He closed the distance between the two of you as if he was about to kiss you and a sigh of anticipation left your lips.
However, instead of leaning more in, he gently clasped your hand in his and lead you to his bed. When did he become so bold? 
BA-DUM, BA-DUM, BA-DUM.
Your heart pounded rapidly in your chest and you could feel how your hand started to sweat with nervousness. Even if Talbott noticed, he didn't show anything and just lay down on his bed. He made room for you and waited for you to join him. With a hint of hesitation that someone could have confused with a silent refusal, you sat on the edge of the mattress. You could feel the heat overwhelming you at the thoughts of what might happen tonight.
You lay down as far away from Talbott as you could, turning your back on him. “Hmpf...” The low sound of dissatisfaction left Talbott's mouth. Were you not comfortable with him being this close to you? He thought he showed enough affection that he felt towards you and the fact that you never rejected him gave him courage. Was today just a demonstration of your goodness to others? Did he think in vain that there was anything more to it?
Despite all the doubts that surfaced in him again, he did not intend to give up. He wasn't going to give you up. He gently pulled you closer to his body with his hand and was pleased to find that you didn't resist him. On the contrary, you even snuggled closer to him. He felt something predatory awaken in him as your bottom rubbed against his lap in an effort to find a more comfortable position. Was this a good idea? Will he even be able to fall asleep so close to you? At first he thought so, but now he wasn't so sure...
His strong arm wrapped around your waist and he buried his face in your curls, gently soaking up your intoxicating scent. One of his wings covered you, and when you felt its delicate structure on your skin, you found out that this was what you felt the first night. 
“Did you use your wing as my blanket the first night we met?“ You whispered your question into the night, waiting for his answer with a sudden dry throat. “Yes.” Was his simple answer. His breath tickled the back of your neck, and a tingle visibly ran through your body. “Are you cold?” He asked you with visible concern in his voice and pulled you even closer to his hot body. Upon close contact with his naked, elaborate chest, you shook again at the thought of what might happen next.
“No. It’s just that...” You shut up and run your tongue over your dry lips, thinking about what to say. “That's what you do to me. My body responds to what you do.“ You reluctantly admit and hide your face in a pillow in a fit of shame. You were glad you didn't face him now because he'd see how much you were blushing. He would see how insane he drives you.
A quiet chuckle resonated within his throat. "I'm glad I have the same effect on you as you do on me, future hubby." And with that, he pressed his soft lips to your cheek as a sign of goodnight wishes. In response, you intertwined your fingers with his and fell asleep.
You both slept peacefully that night without any nightmares. The next day you woke up to a cold morning. Talbott was still asleep, so you quietly prepared breakfast for both of you. His surprised expression was worth the trouble in the kitchen, and with a growing sense of happiness, you watched him devour the food.
Your stomach suddenly went somersault when you realized you had to tell him. “I have to leave for a few days.” The words left your mouth in a low whisper, and if Talbott didn't have such a good hearing, they would escape him. There was a range of emotions in his eyes, confusion, misunderstanding, sadness, and something very reminiscent of the pain of leaving. “It's not forever,” you added quickly so he wouldn't think you were leaving him. “It's just a few meetings related to my ... work. I should be back in a few days.”
“Do you need to go?” He asked you in a flat tone which covered all his emotion. You realized with a throbbing ache that he didn't talk to you like this even when you two first met.
"Unfortunately yes. I have a meeting I need to attend to later this day." You say softly and push aside one strand of restless hair that has fallen to his forehead. He leaned over you as if refusing to let you go, holding your arm as to hold you near to him. The night before was something completely new for him, and he didn't want to let you go now, on the contrary, he wanted you to stay with him. Best forever. 
“I promise I'll be back as soon as I can, alright? And then I'll take you on a small trip to Hogsmeade, if you want.“ You suggested and watched his wings flutter in interest. 
“Do you promise?“ You laughed at the seriousness in his voice and with a fleeting kiss on his face you answered: “I do.” You didn't want to leave him, especially not when things were going so well between the two of you, but you had to. I'm doing it for him, you reminded yourself every time you were saddened to know that you wouldn't be able to see him for a few days.
With the last squeeze of each other hands you said your goodbyes and parted ways. You could feel his sight on your back, and only when you were sure he could no longer see you did you pull your broom out of your bag and with a silent command "Up!" you take off into the sunny sky. 
✮⋆ ✮⋆ ✮⋆✮
In the early hours, you were awakened by a soft tapping of the beak to the window where the little owl demanded your attention. He held a letter with your name in his beak, and you knew what it meant. You were glad he woke you up so early in the morning since the journey to the place where the portkey is located was about two hours long by direct air route. From the place where you appear, you have to walk a few more kilometers to the protected valley where you will meet your friend. 
The cold wind bit you in the face as you accelerated your speed in an effort to reach your destination as soon as possible. When you arrived, you had another quarter of an hour before the porkey would activate and move you to a completely different state with the familiar annoying tug in the lower abdomen. That's why you didn't like this type of travel, you much preferred to apparate yourself or use your broom. The feeling of freedom and weightlessness was priceless.
If you had to describe the nature in Romania in one word, you'd choose terms such as indescribable, breathtaking, majestic. The hills boasted the most beautiful greenery you had ever seen, and in many places rows of dazzling flowers grew in the sun's rays. The valley was lined with dense forest which served as a protective barrier between the world of the Muggles and the terribly attractive world of dragons.
"Well, well, look who's finally here! It was about time!" Your longtime friend Charlie was waving furiously at you from the edge of the rows of trees a huge smile on his face. It's been a long time since you've seen each other.
"You missed me that much? I'm SO honored." You sarcastically remarked and he squeezes you into a tight brotherly hug. “Haha. Funny as always,” he answers and pulls away from you at arm's length. He examined you from head to toe and nodded appreciatively. “You look good.” You thanked him with a smile and asked about his new scar on his face. 
“It looks cool on you.” Was your comment after he enthusiastically explained to you an accident with one of the new dragons that arrived a few months ago to the Romanian Dragon Sanctuary.
When you reached his dwelling, he turned to you with a serious look on his face. “But now tell me the reason why you wanted to meet so quickly.” You sat down at a wooden table and began your explanation; ”There is a person who has to hide from all humanity because of certain indispositions. Unfortunately, my department found out about him and sent me to liquidate him.”
“But you don’t want to do that.” He noted; it wasn't a question he was sure of his words. Despite the gravity of the situation, the corners of your mouth rose in a faint smile. You were pleased with how well your friend knew you.
“No, I don't want that - on the contrary, I want to save him. But I can't do it without your help.” He nodded slowly and rubbed his chin thoughtfully. “What do you need from me?” Was his only question. He trusted you, so he didn't need to ask for more details about the unknown man. The only thing he cared about was the fact that you respected him enough to stand up to the authorities.
“Safe transport. It'd be best if they think we're carrying something completely different and so dangerous that they don't dare peek inside.“ You watch the pulleys of thoughts and plans turn in his head. “I could arrange that, but not right away. I'm going to need a few days to take care of everything. I would rather make it legal to avoid a few unpleasant problems that would occur if the inspection caught us.“ You weren't going to argue with him about that. As long as he things it's the best way to go, you'll go along. 
“Do you have a safe haven for him?“ Was his second question. You nodded quickly in agreement that yes, you have. “In a small Muggle town, I have my own house under my pseudonym. Let's say I created a whole new personality with all the necessary documents. I didn't tell anyone but you and made sure to erase all traces that would lead to me. It's the safest place I know of.“ You assured him and you were proud of your past self that you thought of arranging something like that. When you found out about your unwanted promotion, it occurred to you that it might one day come in handy, even though you didn't expect to be hiding anyone other than yourself.
For the rest of the evening and the next two days, you discussed everything you could, starting with coming up with a perfect plan and taking care of all the necessary matters, and ending with thinking about a few more additional plans should anything go wrong.
When you had resolved most of your plans and Charlie assured you that you had nothing to help him with now, you went to your next meeting. You contacted your girlfriend that works in the Department of Mysteries asking her if she could discreetly look into something for you.
“I looked at the records for you, even the ones I don't have access to, but I didn't find the surname Winger anywhere.“ She whispered in a melodic voice as she walked you through a series of tangled corridors. Her heels made a rhythmic clap clap on the floor. “But since I love you I asked someone else, and before you start swearing at me - we can trust him, I promise.” She continued her narrative and smoothed her already perfect hairstyle.
“Who is it?“ The irritation in your voice was obvious, but Alexiss passed it brilliantly in ignorant silence. Instead, she told you the name of your new comrade-in-arms. 
“Alastor Moody.“
To be continued

We all know Talbott is a silent boy, he prefers to stay away from trouble unlike a certain person that has his interest, but it doesn't mean that he doesn't have an adventurous side of him.
Yet, I still believe that he likes to have some kind of... control? When doing something? Like, yeah, he takes risks.
Just not extreme risks
Or, if you were to introduce him to some muggle vehicles, I think he would love to ride a bike with you and watch as your laugh would be carried to hus ears as the sight of you all happy and glowing would consume him.
Yeah, our boi definetly has a way with words.
Except the point that he made you swear to never talk about the first time he tried it as you showed how to bike, and he fell hard while being busy admiring you in return.
You, of course, accepted it with a giggle but not without crossing your finger because Bill demanded he had to know everything about your date.
He also swoons whenever you beat someone's ass in dueling. There were many times you rocked people's shits, especially Merula's since she always demanded one only to loose, to the point that no one actually stood a chance against you and refused to train.
Proud boyfriend Talbott and proud mama Bill moment 🥺😭
Like really, there isn't something you would do/make that he wouldn't be proud of and supportive
Crochet? Amazing, could you make a hat or a swan plushie? Draw? Excellent! Maybe you could teach me a few things, dove? You want to deceive the first years by playing an innocent game? Well, it's not like him... But he would be down with it anyways, especially after the ultimate "puppy eyes" weapon.
For some reasons, I see his whole vibe with you as Harry Style's "Golden" song 😭😭🥰🥰
It's literally the song that phrases your relationship!
"I know you were way too bright for me/ I'm hopeless, broken, so you wait for me in the sky..."
" Don't wanna let you know I don't wanna be alone/ But I can feel it take a hold, I can feel it take a hold..."
"I can feel you take control, I can feel you take control/ Of who I am, and all I've ever known lovin' you's the antidote..."
Since he didn't have his parents from a young age, and that they were killed right in front of him, Talbott had difficulties with associating himself with people around him.
That doesn't mean he hated them, or didn't want to talk. He did, he really did... He just didn't know how, and was scared that they would be gone too.
Especially early in your "friendship" that he often denied, but secretly liked the taste of the word on his tongue, he pushed and pushed people away, especially you... until only he was left.
But hey, it was a good thing that you were a persistent little shit because not only you were able to befriend him and show the true colors of life, show him that many people cared about him, you also took his heart and soul for yourself... like, for good.
Yeah, Talbott is definetly one of those rare guys who would stay loyal to his partner until the day he died and then even more.
If there was one thing you never expected from him by how he seemed so reserved, it was the fact that he was clingy when alone. Like, eagle boy would do anything to cuddle, hold hands with you, kiss and hug and do anything you ask for.
His hand holding is much more frequent than other forms of PDA. Talbott isn't very keen on them, since he hates attention, but hand holding under the table disecretly happens a lot.
He sits with you during breakfast and dinner, evennif you were in a different house, and your friends tease you for it affectionately.
He especially hold your hand thightly when he feels overwhelmed, or sad because of remembering his mother... to feel grounded, because he often feels like he lives in auto mode where he doesn't actually know what he is doing and doesn't have control.
That's when you step in.
When that happens, and Talbott usually tries to make it all go away through drowning himself in his studies, you would often look for him in thr library. But since he didn't want you to disturb your own peace just to find him, and he also didn't want to be found in a fragile state, he would go for less predictable areas.
He knew it saddened you whenever he refused to talk about his problems, he was aware and it broke his heart too... But he was scared.
You were the best thing that happened to him, even when he thought and still thinks he wasn't worth being loved, even when he thought he wouldn't find any ounce of happiness... Because why would he? He didn't have anyone left from his family at such a young age, his other relatives didn't care much and he was bad at socialising.
He fought and fought, but for what?
But then you came, stubbornly wanting to be his friend... Alongside the huge friend group you brought, and now he had a lot to loose but also a lot he gained.
He didn't understand why someone like you, the hero of Hogwarts, would find anything in him to activelly seek out to be friends with him...
But whatever it was, he was glad. Glad for your stubborn heart, glad because thanks to you, he found a new family.
You healed his aching heart with your sweet smiles, reassuring words and selflessness. Slowly but surely, you settled deep in his heart and after time, he realized he loved you... Immensely.
He couldn't pinpoint the exact moment obviously, but maybe... he always loved you, while watching from afar... While you won Quidditch, solved the mysteries about the Vaults, saved the school one many times... Or how you achieved more than average witch in your age, or how you risked your whole school life just to help him find the necklace of his mother.
Perhaps he realized right then and there that yes, he was in love with you and yes, he was already too deep to get out of that hole that was love.
And he didn't want to, for he was used to darkness when you came with the light of your eyes and heart, and saved him.
He could never be that boy he once was, and he didn't want to. Because now, he had you and a future to hold on to.
You both were the ones who confessed first, under the night sky as you both blushed at the cliche sight but you were content, happy to call this amazing, kind, thoughful and strong boy your lover.
Like I said before, there are a lot of things he wants to do with you: Travel together, have late night dinner dates, go to a beach, have a little cabin at the outskirts of Scotland...
But above all... There is one thing he wants to do with you the most one thing that often has him blushing and unable to sleep.
Grow old with you.
NOW TO THE FUN PART, ENOUGH DEPRESSING
Whenever you try to find him, out of class and studying sessions you both have, he is in the Owlery and all the owl LOVES him! Like really, whenever you two hang out in the school grounds, a flock of them comes and finds him and perches on both of your shoulders happily while picking on your hairs or hiding behind them in a way of playing with you.
He loves jewelries, mostly necklaces and bracelets, so whenever you buy something for yourself, he demands one too.
And he also loves matching with you too, so any necklaces, he's matching with you. It's one of the subtle ways of telling everyone that you/he was taken.
All the teachers and your friends knew you two would be end game, from how in love you both seemed and how Talbott started to smile genuinely after such a long time.
But what sealed it for you both was when he asked you to come to the Owlery, that he had an important thing to say and hive to you.
Imagine your surprise when he looked at you so softly and offered the necklace that had his mother's swan feather, accompanied with the pendants of his initials.
"This necklace used to be the sign of all the things I lost, a reminder of death... But I know my mum would have wanted you to have it, the girl who means so much to me, who I imagine my life to be spent with... I want this to be the sign of our love and my loyalty to you, for you to carry on your neck and hopefully never take it out... If you will have it and me..."
Like I said, he is a one-woman kind of boy and when you start a relationship and things started to get serious and deep, Talbott wouldn't shy away from hinting at marriage and a life together.
Because if this didn't show you the depth of his love, I don't know what would.
Another cute gesture he does with you, especially in like 6th or 7th year, is to wrap his arms around you from behind and put his chin on top of your head after laying a tender kiss there. ( why do boys get so much taller in like a few months when I'm stuck at the same height for the rest of my life 😭)
You two often visit and stay until late in the Owlery. That place had become some kind of a safe space for you both, where you can be with each other in silent, read books or simply feed the owls happily.
OMG HIS FAVOURITE WAY OF SPENDING TIME WITH YOU IS READING ❤️😍
You liked reading books by yourself, but when your boyfriend had a raspy voice and was food at imitations of the characters, you didn't have to do anything except laying back on his chest as you buried yourself in his smell as he read to you, thightenung his hold on your frame.
But just as you loved being read to, he actually likes it as well. He is just bad at showing and telling that. But whenever you see him looking at a book, then at you with a pout, you know what he wants.
And who were you to deny him of that when he looked so cute?
Madam Pince, even though she resented you for pranking her and was close to banning you from the library, was now looking at you and your boyfriend softly because one, you finally weren't there to break the rules but rather trully reading and two, you also helped her clean the library with Talbott too.
But none of you needed to know.
Now that I mentioned her, all the teachers have had bets about your love life. Like when one of you will confess, when you will have a kiss, when you will have a date etc.
And quite creepily, Minerva and Flitwick almost all the time knows when and where and wins quite a few galleons.
Snape couldn't care less, because he hated your guts... Or mayyybee he was slightly interested since you gifted him a cake and offered good mornings every day even though he would snap and he started to not hate you but just dislike.
Sprout was just happy to see her two favourite students together, alongside with Minerva, and offered her blessing with an enchanted flower that would never wilt.
But Dumbledore? Oh, he always knew from the start and didn't bother with such childish act... but he had bets going on with others in the ministry soo~ (Don't get me wrong, I still hate him.)
You know when Hermione said that girls could get in boys' dormitory but they couldn't enter girls'?
Yeah, there were many times you did that, at the beginning for cuddles... And later in your last year, for different things *wink wink*
Ehem, another act he loves doing are ( and I need to say, if a man did that to me, I would simply melt) taking your hand in his and putting it on his chest, where his heart is and kissing your forehead and lingering his lips there for a few seconds more.
Just imagine the feels and how hard your heart would beat I-
FLOWERS! YOU BOTH GIVE EACH OTHER FLOWERS ALL THE TIME!
You giving him flowers actually has a funny story because you thought he wouldn't like them, especially early in your relationship
But you couldn't help but think that daisies would look good on his dark, long hair
So you hastily went to Hogsmeade, came back in a hurry and sent a letter to him through your owl to meet you in the Owlery
It was definetly worth seeing the dark red tint on his skin when tou explained why you wanted to give him them
"I wanted to show you that I care and love you a lot, and flowers are a great way to show it, especially since I enchanted them!.. And by your reaction, I'll do that more in the future!"
And yes, you did so... Even after being married for such a long time, eventually having kid/s and in your 60-70
And he never stopped blushing and returning the gesture just as sweetly, always adding a little blessing and thanks to Merlin for bringing you into his life
This headcanons are already taking so long so I'll stop here before it gets out of control lol
And I'll go and continue crying at the corner because I don't have a Talbott in my life 🥺

I just imagined how Talbott was found in adult form
Narumi could literally stop working herself in a few minutes she will pass out
(Parzival- Rabbot as an adult if he's handsome...I don't blame him...)

Felix would be so proud of Mc. She’s spending all her books on dragons to make his dream come true… She is like “Wake up, little dragon, it’s time to surprise my soon to be husband!”.
So, Felix, babe, be ready for Mc and her army of dragons. Buy her a ring, she deserves it.
