Private Message to Draco Malfoy

[alt_blaise]

Are you coming along to Teds' on Friday? He asked me if I thought you would, and I told him I'd ask. Not sure why he couldn't ask himself.

At any rate, it gives me a chance to say that I'm glad you brought Daphs to Avery's and that there won't be any awkwardness on my part if you were to ask her as your plus-one again. I hope you knew that already.

I'm rather looking forward to being away next week. It's really time I spoke to Mother about finding a flat of my own somewhere. I'm sure she'd enjoy decorating and furnishing it. That would give her a new outlet. She seems bored this summer.

Yeah, I got his invite and was planning to make an appearance.

Glad to hear that about Daphs, as I was planning to escort her again. Not that there's a romance developing, or anything. But she's a good bit of fun, our Daphs.

Maybe I should ask my Mother for a flat. Could be useful.

Glad to hear it. Should be an interesting evening. I mean to say, they always are, but with Teds one never knows quite what to expect. At Avery's, of course, it was the very fine brandy. You missed Vaisey's, but he had dishes of nonpareils that were truly... mind-bendingly fabulous, if you take my meaning. Made Celia Thompson think she was a calico cat. Believe me, it was memorable the way she wanted to rub herself against everyone that evening.

I think I'll see if Thompson would like to come along to Teds.


Take care with Daphs. She doesn't always look after her own interests properly, but she deserves the best.

So is it Thompson you're pulling now instead of Padma? Can't choose between them - or don't want to?

Any idea what we've got to look forward to at Teds, or is he trying to keep it entirely under wraps? Ah, I'm sure knowing him that he is.
