Once he's seen Bucky back to London, Steve returns to the bar. The first visit was a success--Bucky seems to have had a good time and met some great people. Steve hoped the bar would be good for him, and it looks like he was right.

On his own again, Steve has another pastime in mind, one he hopes to get in a few more times before autumn descends on Milliways. It's involves him, a comfy spot by the lake, and his sketchbook.

Perhaps some company, should some come along.

Bruce had been obliged to spend the day sorting out matters of business. That is, the business of Wayne Enterprises. Not the other business.

All things being equal, he'd rather be in the Batcave, or out in Gotham. But there's this stock exchange plan to scupper, and that requires at least some paperwork - Alfred had offered, but it's time he started doing it himself, really.

Milliways, then, is a welcome surprise. He wanders in straight from the front door of the manor, still in his ridiculously neat, and expensive, suit; still carrying a briefcase. Huh. Well, this is as good a place as any to get it done. It'll leave time for the other stuff later.

So. One businessman, armed with a pen, a protein shake, and some unidentifiable green stuff in a glass. He probably won't mind an interruption.


[OOC: Whoa, OK. Nearly 02:30, which definitely means slowtime is in order. Thanks so much everyone, loved them all! Will pick up on the morrow. <333]

It’s been an explosive day at Hogwarts.

Luna wanders into the bar accompanied by a trio of shocking pink Catherine wheels, a sparkling purple bat, a small flock of silver shooting stars, and a sparkler that is cheerfully writing Sod Off in midair of its own accord.

The Weasley twins have outdone themselves with their enchanted fireworks. It’s almost as if the castle itself is trying to emulate Dumbledore’s grand exit from Hogwarts the night before. Right out from under the noses of the Minister of Magic, the Grand Inquisitor, and two Aurors.

Umbridge is fit to be tied.

Luna stops and smiles beatifically up at the fireworks that are now zinging happily among the Milliways rafters.

Yes. It’s been a very good day indeed.

 There's an elven lord at a table close to the fire this afternoon. And Elrond actually looks the part today, dressed in linen and silk in tones of grey and blue, delicate like evening mist and just as beautiful. His hair is combed back and studded with a myriad of tiny, silver stars, and he wears jewelry. A star-shaped clasp at his throat, keeping his tunic closed, and a ring. It's a signet ring, not a Ring of Power.

He is sipping tea and slowly going through a stack of maps, sorting them. They take up quite a bit of the table and not two are alike. Neither n what they depict, nor in the materials of which they are made.

He would not at all be adverse to company.

Arts and crafts time for the Fool.

He's sitting at one of the tables with a bunch of glitter, colorful paper, glue, stickers and scissors. There's a distracted humming as he works. Under his feet, Jocundus naps on his back, feet up in the air. Occasionally he'll twitch a little. Probably chasing demon bunnies in his dreams.

[janebecomes]

Jane has found herself in a position where she can be of great help to her family by relinquishing her hope of marrying for love.

To marry Mr. Wisley would not be a hardship as they are friends but it would not give her the happiness that marrying Tom would. Yet without Cassandra's future secured, the shape of her responsibilities changes and Jane cannot write herself a happy ending.

She opens the door expecting to find her room and briefly smiles before finding a table and ordering some tea as well as a few sheets of paper.

Her aim was to consider how to phrase an invitation to speak with Mr. Wisley and that can be done here. Perhaps Milliways will provide some distraction to her and even a reminder that some day, the world will change.

(OOC: Open until it scrolls.)

[oom: Questions and answers.]

Guppy is outside, dangling his feet in the lake. And occasionally checking that nothing in the lake is going to bite them. Otherwise, he's lost in thought.

After a while, he picks up some handfuls of pebbles and starts to skim them across the water.

[Out of Milliways, and millitimed to just after this incident: one of the Scribes on Ellen's factory project is doing some serious Contemplating.

Ellen might even find out about it eventually.]
