IO to Terry and MacDougal ONLY

[mc_mike]

Rumour has it I've a wager still to collect on. S'pose I've kept the pair of you waiting on pins and needles long enough.

I've the details when you're ready. Be prepared to be amazed by my brilliance.

Correction. I want you to say you have an unsatiable interest in those things and all the little attachments or whatever the bleeding hell else comes with them. I reckon you've been researching them a bit, wanting to start your own collection and all, but you're still unsure about which'd be the best to choose - no harm in asking the Network at large, yeah?

Oh my gods. You can't be serious. You just can't be.

Oh Merlin. I think I'm going to pass out.


What if I don'tcan't?

A wager's a wager.

So WHAT?! It's not like we had an Unbreakable Vow on this! How could you possibly make me do anything?!

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

Here's your options, MacDougal. Being a Ravenclaw, let's hope you suss out the right one.

You can either: a)follow through on the bet with the terms as is or b)take your chances and have me give you something else to which you're obligated to do and won't be able to switch back to your current choice.

If you can't take the heat, you might want to play with the first years next time around and leave true wagering to the big boys.

Fine. FINE!

When do I have to do this?

One other point - you said a public IO, but could it be an IO only to students? Lisa did get into trouble with our esteemed Head of House over her cache - I'd prefer he not get hacked off at me over a wager.

Tomorrow. Terry's to follow yours.

Flitwick's a pushover. Bribe him with a sponge bath in a magically enlarged tea cup.

Brilliant. Just ruddy wonderful. Happy sodding Thursday.

....that is a truly disgusting image. Can I bribe him with the thought of you giving him the sponge bath, since you seem to know all about such things?

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

Looking forward to it myself, yeah. Should be brill.

I don't mind seeing as Flitwick already has held me captive every sodding Tuesday afternoon since September, but for the record, he'd probably not care for the offer.

I'm certain you are, though I'm not entirely clear on the concept of why it's so much fun to see your friends humiliate themselves.

Well, if he decides to take me to task tomorrow, I'll be certain to tell him you'd be willing to perform that service.

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

S'pose you'll find out once you win.

Brilliant. I've just the teacup.

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

I'm planning on it.

Have I told you lately that you frighten me?

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

Fancy a flutter on that?

Been a couple days, at the very least.

Have I told you lately how much I'm looking forward to collecting tomorrow?

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

I'm not completely daft, you know. I think I'll finish this one before taking on another, thank you very much.

I'll try to make a note to tell you more regularly, then. You obviously miss it.

Yes. Let's hope you feel the same way tomorrow.
