Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry

[kumainpink]

Sewlyn broke out into a large grin. So finally, someone other than Fawkes was confirming his path. The school would be stable and restored in no time at all! He could free the elves without worries, and the students would learn that their views were right! And all Mrs. Barlow wanted was for him to keep going! Absolutely perfect. "I have no intention on stopping, Mrs. Barlow."

Olivia beamed at him, obviously pleased with her answer. "In that case, I would like to ask you to join a new political alliance that I'm forming. It is called the Equalist Party, and our platform is equal rights between magical creatures and wizards." She looked to Henry. "Would you like to join as well?"

"I would love to." Sewlyn agreed at once, his spirits soaring. Things were going to be alright. And this time, a difference would be made.

"And to answer your question, Henry, I've been very, very busy." she added, her tone somber. "Brayden's death has made me realize that gathering information was a waste of time. I am simply covering for lost ground."

"Olivia," said Henry with a smile, "I would be honored. In fact, why don't we go out for drinks to celebrate tonight? Or even lunch? This is a moment to be treasured! Finally, Selwyn and I have someone to work with and further our goals as well! I know you feel like you don't have enough time, but you've done more than enough, my dear."

Olivia smiled. "I would love to." she looked to Daniel and Ewan. "Would you two want to come with me?"

"I would be honored." Daniel said, kissing her hand in a show of affection.

"I'll buy." Sewlyn declared proudly. "How about a nice dinner at Shez Vandover, whilst we discuss our agenda?"

[G. Novella]

"I think it's a great place, and if your footing the bill Selwyn, then I'll definitely be there," said Henry with a chuckle.

[Miss Wings]

"Are you sure we should go there?" Maxy asked concerned when he heard where they were planning to go.

[kumainpink]

Olivia grinned. "It will be fine, Ewan. That restaurant is a pro-creature place." She looked to Sewlyn. "I think this is going to be the start of something very beautiful. Together, we can overcome anything they throw at us."

"I couldn't agree more." Sewlyn said placidly.

[Miss Wings]

"Let's hope they serve the cheesy jacket potato with tuna pasta then" Maxy said with a forced laugh.

[G. Novella]

"Well, if that's settled, shall we be on our way?" asked Henry, standing up with a delighted air, a plan having settled in his mind.

[kumainpink]

Olivia got up, as did Daniel and Sewlyn.

"Go on ahead and reserve a table. I will follow you soon." Sewlyn said brightly. "I just need to sort out a few things. I think I'll have Professor Mayshine take my place until I return."

Olivia smiled. "In that case, I think we should go. We'll meet you there, Sewlyn."

[G. Novella]

"Sounds perfect, I'll start a nice bill for you," said Henry. "Should we use the Floo, or would you like to walk?"

[kumainpink]

"I would like to take the floo." Olivia answered. "I'm rather famished, and if Sewlyn is paying, I'd like to aid you in running up the bill as soon as possible."

This earned a chuckle from the aforementioned headmaster. "Something tells me my gold sack is going to be empty tonight."

[G. Novella]

"Us? Never!" laughed Henry, moving to the Floo, "Ladies first then. After you Olivia."

[kumainpink]

With a chuckle, Olivia entered the floo and shouted out the name of the restaurant. It wasn't long before Daniel did the same.

[G. Novella]

Henry followed after Maxy, and arrived at the restaurant. A waiter rushed to help them.

"A private booth, if you will," said Henry, "So, shall we have some wine with our lunch?"

[Miss Wings]

"No thank you. I'm not an alcoholic drinker, I've seen what it can do to people" Maxy explained before looking down at the menu. "I'll have The Bolt please" Maxy informed the waiter.
