And it goes.

Since it would seem I'm the only one around here with an enquiring mind, - Brown and Parvati, I'm disappointed verily, I am - s'pose that leaves me to ask the question that's begging to be asked.

MacDougal, what flavour arm candy are you? Your brother says licorice. I'm not ruddy sure I want to know how he knows.

Since I can, oi, Filly? Wanted to warn you, sir, that the dozen roses that your award-winning wife'll be binning once they're delivered? They're from Tony. Mine'll be the ones delivered later this evening. The one's she'll be gushing over and that'll convince her to chuck you for me.


Anyone else reckon they should give up looking for the cause of this past April's Fools? There's other areas which the Ministry should be utilising their resources, I think.

You mean like requiring we all be carded to breathe?


Anthony did no such thing, don't be ridiculous.

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

Nah, I was thinking on circus dress and elephants.

Cert he sent you some as well. Might want to check with him though.

[ms-pansy.livejournal.com]

We've already had that discussion, Michael. Clowns aren't allowed.

He hasn't been out of my sight lately, so I doubt it. Except of course when you steal him off for a pint and you both leave me at the mercy of my mother! And you call yourself a friend?

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

Might be the rule, but the Ministry's riddled with them. Hell, they've one in charge.

Oi, I'm a brilliant mate. Leaving you with your mum was Tony's barmy idea, not mine.

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

Oi, mate, you've already left school, so you can stop trying to impress our Head of House. Um, right, sir?

[charms-flitwick.livejournal.com]

That would be correct, Mr Goldstein.

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

Good. Sir.

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

Not him I'm impressing, mate.

Who said anything about trying, anyroad?

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

I'm offended on Padma's behalf. And I think you don't have a chance, anyroad, mate. You're too tall. Sorry, sir.

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

Padma understands. She's met her.

Might be the tall drink she's been waiting for, mate.

[charms-flitwick.livejournal.com]

I'll be sure to tell her.

And just how are you occupying your time of late, Mike?

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

There's a card as well.

The usual. Tutouring the young MacDougal clan in Mikeology with the occasional lesson about dancing teacups and boil producing potions; catching up on my education in the entrepreneurial arena through some on-hands research and books that would make Padma yawn; and bathing the homeless in my spare time. Trying to make the world a better place, one clean tramp at a time.

What about you, sir? Missing us yet?

[charms-flitwick.livejournal.com]

A card! I'm sure she'll be thrilled to hear from you, her favourite adopted son. I place emphasis on son. As fond as I am of you, you may not have my wife, Mr Corner. You are welcome to dinner, however.

I see your time is well spent. Do I hear the pleasant sound of coins brushing together as you loose your hand in a wager? If it were a decent thing to do, I'd almost arrange for a game or two with my young apprentice, should he find that a suitable evening spent.

I'm quite well. I have managed to procure for myself a new niece and great nephew, one of your very own fellow students. Had I known we were related the entire time, I think I'd have been more insistent that he drop the odd obsession with the spider man.

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

Admit it! It was you, besides, wasn't it!

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

You know me, mate. Would I send shite?

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

You? I bloody well reckon you would. I'd have thought my young self would have had better taste. Still, funny to see you agree that sleeping with a boy was better than a girl.

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

As if I'd tell you, Michael.

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

S'pose that means I'm needing to ask Oakshaft, yeah? Do you call him Oakie?

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

Ask him - I dare you. I don't know why he'd tell you anything. And of course I don't call him anything so ridiculous - and you shouldn't, either!

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

You're disappointed in me??

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

It is what I said. Falling down on your gossip duties, you are.

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

I've been busy. I won't speak for Lavender.

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

I shudder to think of what "lessons" you teach these poor children.

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

No worries, Padma. It's all pertinent to their future success.

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

In which subject, sir, human candy or "Mikeology"?
