BARTENDING

*Bernard. In the bar.

At the Bar.

Taking orders.

Imagine that.*

[ooc: Clarice gets a flat in the Staff Wing; Tom Riddle gets a scotch and an update on Bernard's love life, which is rather awesome; Sunny is imperious and snuggly and calls Bernard Daddy for the first time; Tony is depressed (OMG SHOCK AND AWE); Ace is seduced away from Tim with Vegetable Korma; Tim and Bernard talk about Security issues, including Faith and Barty Crouch, and Bernard pricks at Tim's conscience without meaning to; Laini is over-friendly; Q offers his services in the future; the Trips get cockroaches and a knife; Ginny's just plain nice and talkative; and Raph and Bernard talk about EVERYTHING (definitely worth a read).]

Oh?

Do tell, Bernard. I'm intrigued by the secrets of your great happiness.

*He flushes even more and looks down at the Bar, grinning.*

Now. That would be telling.

[young_tmriddle]

Bernard?

*He has a huge grin.*

I don't recall seeing you act like this before.

Now I really do want to know. Don't make me use an Unforgivable to get it out of you.

*He's teasing of course. Using Legilimency on Barty was one thing; he'd never do that to a friend.*

*Bernard laughs out loud.*

Nothing out of the ordinary.

We're just... really happy.

[young_tmriddle]

Well, if you do have any magic secrets - not that I'm need any extra assistance in that department - I'd love to hear.

Happiness like that's not easy to come by.

Gosh, I dunno. Variety is the spice of life, Tom.

[young_tmriddle]

Variety, indeed.

That's what magic is for.

*That grin gets a bit more wicked.*

Good night, Bernard.

Hopefully next time I won't be in such a rush.

*Bernard grins back.*

I hope so, too.

Tell Door, Ingress, Megwyn, and Gavroche I said hi.

[young_tmriddle]

I certainly will. Give Tonks my regards, as well. I already pledged my fealty to the infant overlord.

*He laughs and waves as he walks back to the House.*
