Beauty fades, stupidity is forever.

Where have you been, boy? You're very quiet and I can't say I like it. Accompany me to an art auction tonight, I want to hear your latest news.

So nice to see The Daily Prophet hitting the hard news this morning. It turns out I'm a November, and my spirit animal is a water vole. I look forward to tomorrow's issue immensely.

	Wit beyond measure is a man's greatest treasure, and so on and so forth. Doesn't get one as far in life as beauty, though, at least not on its own. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

All creatures are disposed to what they deem beautiful or alluring. Elves love bobbles and multi-coloured flowers, goblins covet things that glitter, and we wizards not only value attractiveness but ~~power~~intelligence. I think if one has both, well, they do go a great deal many places; but, how one endures the great march of time is how they cultivate their natural talents and apply them because as you said: beauty fades. To just rest on the laurels of attractiveness is simply foolish. Wouldn't you agree, Lady Longbottom?

	Aren't you a curious creature, Lady Daphne? Tell me something interesting about yourself. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I do hope you not consider my answer false modesty when I say I hold very little interesting tidbits about myself, Lady Longbottom. I love to keep myself busy, I'm producing my own fashion line within my mother's Homme, and on Sundays I indulge in basic gardening out on my balcony. Nothing lavish. Just mostly non-magical flowers as they tend to be less temperamental.

	A fashion line? How ambitious, Lady Daphne. And I've never had a green thumb, personally, but I am familiar with the patience that goes into gardening. Have I ever seen you in my restaurant? (Reply to this) (Parent)
