It's a somewhat flustered and exasperated Bilbo Baggins that strides into the bar today.

You see, it's Bilbo's birthday. And while for many people this means cake and ice cream and games with the people you like best, lately Bilbo had found it means trying to placate every branch of his vast family by inviting them all round for tea and then bobbing up and down to serve while they wish him many happy returns and get crumbs in the rugs.

He's almost rather ignore his birthday than continue to put up with this nonsense. Almost.

Fortunately, one of his pantry doors opened to Milliways.

Bilbo now has different plans for his birthday, and they largely involve staying off his feet.

He climbs up onto a stool. "Ale, please," he says and gets out his pipe.

"You're a man - no, a
Hobbit
- of good taste."

"I shall, Bilbo. Have you ever tried butter beer? I highly recommend it."
mostcharmingsmile: (practically giddy)

It's not technically beer, but it's delicious!

"Here, try a bottle." One appears on the surface of the bar, and Gilderoy giggles. He'll never tire of seeing this magic.
mostcharmingsmile: (i once was spectacular)

"I always liked this better than pumpkin juice."

His eyes light up.

"Oh! I remembered that."

Good for him!
mostcharmingsmile: (I'm so very pleased and slightly smug)

"Yes. It's sweet and tart and fine, if you like juice. But butter beer is better."

ooc: tiiiiired... we can finish it up tomorrow perhaps?
mostcharmingsmile: (would you like my autograph)

"Good fellow, good fellow. I'm rather peckish. I haven't eaten anything here. I wonder what's best?"
mostcharmingsmile: (practically giddy)

"I should like some biscuits, then," he says, "the shortbread kind."

A plate appears. Gilderoy claps his hands.

"I never tire of asking for something and receiving it."
mostcharmingsmile: (almost perfectly fine)

"I don't believe I ever have," he says between bites of cookie.
mostcharmingsmile: (i wish i could remember)

"No, the carers bring me my meals. I'm not sure what I did before, but I remember tables full of food and lots of people eating when I did."

"Yes," he says, his eyes sparkling once more.

"Sometimes we all dress up and wear funny hats."
mostcharmingsmile: (Gilderoy Lockhart)

"Just cravats and party hats. Not costumes."
