Happy Hour

[wizard_howell]

It's a tired and subdued wizard who straggles into the bar tonight, rests his head on Bar's surface, and is presented with the option to tend. Never one to resist a challenge, regardless of how weary he might be, he nods resolutely. A wave of his hand later, the specials are up on the board.

Baby Aspirin
Morgan's Mountain
Witch's Brew #2 (#1 is busy)

At the very bottom, in tiny golden letters:

Bydd y dyn hwn yn talu am bopeth!*

It's only money, right?




*Drinks are on Howl's tab tonight.


ETA: and we're closed to new threads. Thank you, everyone.

There are potions and spells for that sort of thing. Eventually, though, he will find himself being incredibly grumpy and out-of-sorts. No matter how good any wizard's magic is, sleep is still required.

He'll have to teach Morgan to value the spiders at a very young age.

"No overworking." He's typically very good at slithering out of that sort of thing -- something else he'll have to teach his son -- and he raises his teacup to Mia with a smile. "Photographs next time." Or perhaps a portrait. Who wouldn't want a framed image of a baby screaming sitting in their front hallway?

There are so many reasons his castle has no front hallway.

"Take care of yourself, my dear. And my best to your family. Thank you for the most excellent advice."

There are worse portraits out there. Just ask anyone who's spent significant time in 12 Grimmauld Place.

"Send my warmest regards along to all of yours. And we can trade next time: photographs for baby clothes."

She raises her own teacup.

"I hope it serves you well. And if it doesn't, you have my blessing to toss it aside."

"A deal. Thank you, friend." With a tired but genuine grin on his face, he steps down to the other end of the bar, already formulating what he'll tell Sophie about tonight. He very much likes Mia's idea of stepping through the castle door to this place for a nap.

That's something he'll definitely pass along to Sophie.
