I think I'm doing rather well on my New Year's resolutions this year. I've told myself I must commit to at least an hour a day writing my own music ~~and not being distracted listening to other artists.~~

Alecto and Evan
Thank you again for the earrings. I haven't taken them off since Christmas.

Flora
Oasis are touring this summer! Do you think we can find a way to at least stand outside the stadium so I can absorb their musical talent through the air? We could maybe try to bribe the people on the door... or... I need a plan! And a banner that says: Will you marry me Liam? How quickly can you brew Amortentia?

I also think Prince is ill. He's not jumping right.

	Is there anything that's not quite Amortentia but would just, you know, give a suggestion of love? Wait. Do you mean--Do you think we can go? I'll check on tickets and locations! I don't care where we are--just in the building will do. Flora! He's always been a super jumper. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Hestia, you are not dosing a Muggle with any kind of potion. Well, maybe. I've been able to get so much more work done now that I have the workroom at Aunt Alecto and Uncle Evan's house so I've been able to pick up more contracts and commissions.

He's a toad, Hestia, and it's winter and the house is horribly drafty. He's probably just cold and doesn't want to jump around much.

	Oh you know I wouldn't... You make it sound so--Well, it is. I didn't mean for it to sound like that. I don't expect you to pay for tickets. I just wouldn't enjoy going on my own. ~~Not that I could actually pay for them--~~ So you're not going to check on him? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I think only one of us should be doing dubious things with potions. I'm earning this money for us, for our future, but that doesn't mean we can't enjoy ourselves a little bit now. Of course I will. Though I'm not sure why you think I know more about toads than you do. Well, I suppose I do but only in terms of potion ingredients. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	~~You know I don't like talking about that--~~ ... So we can maybe go? If it's not too expensive and we can come up with with an excuse to leave for a bit and... You're not taking this seriously. He's not an ingredient, Flora! I'm going to take him into Diagon this afternoon. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Hestia \| Flora coldflower 2017-01-08 05:41 pm UTC (link)
	Yes. If it's not too expensive and we can get there easily enough. I'll take care of Father. Hestia! Of course I'm taking this seriously. Bring him here and I'll have a look at him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You're my favourite person. I don't mean to stress about Prince but I just worry ~~father will~~ he will get sick like the others. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I thought that was Mr Darcy. He'll be fine. Maybe he wants to hibernate. It is winter, after all. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Hestia \| Flora senseofwonder_ 2017-01-09 02:28 pm UTC (link)
	He's a very close second. Do toads hibernate? Or are you just trying to make me feel better? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Hestia \| Flora coldflower 2017-01-10 01:05 am UTC (link)
	Yes, toads hibernate. They dig themselves into the ground or under compost and hibernate all winter. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Hestia \| Flora senseofwonder_ 2017-01-10 02:19 pm UTC (link)
	That sounds like they dig a grave... I don't like it. He's not going in the garden till Spring. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Hestia \| Flora coldflower 2017-01-10 10:30 pm UTC (link)
	Not really. Just a nice little hidey-hole to protect them from the cold. And he doesn't have to go into the garden. Isn't there an old fish tank in the attic? We can make a little terrarium and bring the garden in to him. He'd probably like it even if he decides he doesn't want to hibernate after all. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Hestia \| Flora senseofwonder_ 2017-01-11 03:27 pm UTC (link)
	Oh, I like that idea! Can you maybe charm it to give it wildlife sounds? I want him to be comfortable if he's going to be in a tank. (Reply to this) (Parent)
