Right.

*he steals another kiss and walks off to the bar, grinning*

*smiles and watches him head to the bar, before realizing who else is there*

Charlie! Oh, bollocks.

[ooc: did lj drop one of your posts here? if you're busy with Crowley, that's fine, I just wanted to make sure...it's been doing that to me lately :)]

[OOC: I'm so sorry! It hasn't been notifying me, and I got distracted]

*Charlie returns with drinks*

There.

*raises glass*

To...

Actually, I have no idea.

[ooc: that's okay! just let me know if you need to drop charlie for the night, okay? don't tie yourself in knots on my account :)]

*catches his arm* Charlie, wait...I think you'd better let me get the drinks for the rest of the night. *looks nervously in the direction of the bar*

Dora, I'm pretty sure I can take care of myself, you know.

No, I know, it's just...there's this new woman who's been coming the past few nights, the one with the snake ring. *points to where Moiraine stands with Tom and Door*

There's a rumour that she has it in for male wizards...tries to drain them of their powers, or something.

Yeah, I know, I've been warned by Sirius already.

She doesn't look up to much...

Well, You-Know-Who looks like a pale, skinny bloke with poor eyesight, so there you are. Just promise me you'll be careful, all right? I'll feel better if you don't get too close to her.

Alright, love, I promise.

*he chuckles a little*

You don't think I'd let anything happen now, of all times, do you?

*frowns a bit* Why? What's so special about now?

Now is special...

*he goes bright red*

'cos I've met you again. And I have a multitude of stories about you that I'm dying to spread amongst the clientele.

*goes an equally bright shade of red, but grins and claps her hand over his mouth* Oh no you don't, Charlie Weasley! Because if you do, you know quite well I have a few stories of my own to spread 'round...such as the infamous underwear-Quidditch-Goal incident...yes, that is a good one...

Don't you bloody dare, minx!

*grabs her around the middle and pulls her into a hug*

*laughs, but makes no effort whatsoever to squirm away* Well, then, I suppose you'll just have to mind yourself, hmmm?

Pfft. I could take you.

Er...

*the double meaning sinks in, and he blushes again*

'nother drink?

*gives him a wicked grin* Oh, could you, now?

Yes, I could do with another, but *very firmly* I'll get them.

*goes to the bar and comes back with another drink for each of them, and hands Charlie his pint*

Now, you were saying...?

Lovely weather we've been having lately, isn't it?

*gives him her most Highly Amused look* Oh, Charlie, it's all right, I'm hardly someone you need to walk on eggshells with. But yes, the weather has been quite nice.

Look, Dora, I'll be honest with you. Okay?

It's been a long time in Romania, 'specially when blokes and dragons don't especially take your fancy. So... I'd rather not talk about it right now, 'cos I wouldn't be happy settling for just talking. So it's easier avoiding the issue. Right? Right.

*nods seriously* No, that's all right, I understand. But just so you know...

...just talking won't hold me for much longer, either.

*cradles her face with his hand and kisses her*

Right. I'll keep that in mind.

*smiles, kisses him back, and then rests her head on his shoulder*

So tell me what you did today, with your family. I want to hear all about it.

*drops wearily back into her seat* You know, just once I'd like to come in here and not have to use a spell I learned at the Academy. Honestly.

But you look so sexy when you're in action.

*grins widely*
