Private to Padma and Turpin

[mc_mike]

Oi, just ran across Abbott's and McDougal's IOs about Apparition. We're still on for tomorrow's lesson, yeah?

Mike!

Must stop with the bouncing- and the twirling around- and the... theatrics, but...

DID YOU SEE MY SISTER'S IO? DID YOU????

And yes, of course! I can't wait to seeeee you!!

[http://users.livejournal.com/mike_corner_/]

Tell me again how you're doing?

I did see it, yeah. Bet your parents are right proud, then.

Did you see Abbott's invite to seventh years? Reckon I can persuade my mum to let me head out to Diagon Alley if you'd like to go. I've understand you're not supposed to Apparate on an empty stomach and you want your pupils at their peak, yeah?

[http://users.livejournal.com/_patil_padma/]

I didn't tell you how I was doing, Mike. I told you I was dancing. I seem to recall- something you said about me and dancing, yes.

"Right proud" is a bit of an understatement. I reckon I'm shocked our house hasn't fallen apart around us now.

I just did, yes. And... Merlin, Mike, is this a date? I mean a real date, even though the rest of the ruddy year will be there, which ironically might persuade my father to let me go? And because Parvati organised it, and because Parvati is now a PREFECT, they're letting her celebrate and what am I rambling on about again? Ice cream? With you? I'd bloody love it, yeah.

Didn't need to tell me how, your little dancing photograph did nice enough.

The Patils know the definition of rowdy? Always thought your sister did, but the rest of you lot?

Ace, Padma. Had me a touch worried there you'd turn me down.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_patil_padma/]

Ah, these photographs can tell you all that, yeah?

OI, I can be rowdy! Didn't you see me at your bloody- tea bag and whipped cream party thing? How else might I persuade you, Mr Corner?

Never have to worry about that, Mike. Reckon it's not in my nature to turn you down. Right.

Brilliant invention, photographs.

My memory's gone bad, see. Being out of school's caused a bloody leak in the head. Reckon I'll need a refresher lesson.

That so? Interesting. Remember that when I tell you my mum wants to speak with you, yeah?

[http://users.livejournal.com/_patil_padma/]

Aren't they just?

Oh dear, Mike. I would hate for you to have- memory problems caused by lack of schooling. Thank goodness I shall be seeing you tomorrow, yes? I shall- construct a proper lesson plan tonight, yes.

Your mum wants to speak with me? Why should that bother me; your mother is a lovely woman... er... this wouldn't be the equivalent of my father wanting to speak to you, would it be?

[http://users.livejournal.com/mike_corner_/]

Award-worthy, I reckon.

Sooner the better, yeah. Proper and thorough - I've lost a tonne of information. Having trouble tying my trainers, even. Suppose this means I should bring an apple for the teacher then.

Bloody hell I hope not.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_patil_padma/]

Hm, indeed.

Oh dear, Mr Corner. Reckon this will be an all-day lesson then. Perhaps you ought to bring a few- for us to share.

Er... well, that's good, I suppose. She did like that- gift basket I got for her with Pansy... right? Of course I'll talk to her, yeah.

[http://users.livejournal.com/mike_corner_/]

Basket it is. Anything else you fancy? Bowling fruit?

Right. Not sure how good, but I'll let her know then.

Course she did. Like most birds, I reckon. Makes Alex and me smell her every damn morning. Smells like she's had a go of it rolling in orange peels.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_patil_padma/]

So long as it doesn't hit me in the face of it's own accord.

Alright. Sounds good then.

...that bad? Oh dear... might I take this opportunity to blame Pansy entirely? Then again... you said she liked it, yes? Motion rescinded.

[http://users.livejournal.com/mike_corner_/]

How about other areas?

Just for that, I'll stew in that lotion before you arrive tomorrow.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_patil_padma/]

...Mike! Honestly! Incorrigible boy. Incorrigible! What if it hits you too

Wait, wait, is that supposed to be a compliment or an insult? If you're the one who doesn't like it, reckon it's a self-enforced punishment, yeah?

[http://users.livejournal.com/mike_corner_/]

Nature of the beast, Padma. Reckon I'll need double assistance with cleaning it up and the bruising

You assume I don't like it. You wait.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_lisa_turpin/]

Yes sir! Can't let the 'puff and the bird hog all the glory now, can we?

No, we can't.

[http://users.livejournal.com/mike_corner_/]

Damn straight.
