Fuck, that hurt.
So. Did I make a fool of myself or did it just feel like i

Yes. I'm still fine. Apart from my pride.

Didn't know Youngblood had that in him, though.

[...]

Would anyone be willing to put in some additional practice? Since I clearly need it.

[Ulysses, Cameron, & Wilde]

So. What are we doing for Krum? We can't have a party for a fucking skink Rex and do nothing for him. Unless we're all even bigger pricks than I assume we are.

First of all, I resent the implication that my skink is less important than Iliya.

Second Ward

[casperkim]

Your skink is less important than Krum.

And second of all?

Second Ward

[ulixes]

That's rude. My feelings are real hurt. Rex's too.

We're gonna have a party! How big do you think we oughta go? I'd love to make it a huge sort of celebration, but I figure that'd send Krum cryin to a corner. Which is, generally speaking, a no-no on one's birthday. So I'm reconsidering my stance.

Second Ward

[casperkim]

You'll endure. Somehow.

Not big. He'd definitely end up in the corner, crying or not. [...] Just something at the cabin? Friends? Drinks? Cake? [...] Fuck, I don't know.

Second Ward

[ulixes]

Yes and yes. Maybe I'll get streamers. I think there's a charm for that.

[destructobot]

[First Ward]

Dude, you got destroyed.

And yes.

[Second Ward]

Let's just do what we would have done for my birthday if anyone cared.

[...]

Just kidding, let's party. Reasonably sized party. Strict guest list party.

Second ward

[ulixes]

Not our fault he's more fun than you. Just a ray of sunshine and party vibes, our Iliya. Both of you, really, but I reckon he's worse. If I had to pick.

Second ward

[destructobot]

It's whatever.

Honestly, we should just pretend it's a party for Rex long enough that he believes us, and then surprise the fuck out of him.

Second ward

[ulixes]

You're whatever.

Rex party 2, alright! I could pull it off.

Second ward

[casperkim]

How many birthdays does Rex have in year, exactly?

Second ward

[ulixes]

A lizard year is awful short.

Second ward

[casperkim]

Right.

Second ward

[ulixes]

There goes another one! Happy 734th birthday, buddy.

I know how you feel about me, don't worry.

Sid's birthday hat would probably fit him. It's all coming together.

[casperkim]

[First Ward]

Fuck off.
Yeah. I know.

Good. We'll figure something out when we're back at the cabin.

[Second Ward]

If Krum had thrown an elaborate party for Yo-Yo just before your birthday, we'd have had this conversation earlier. Don't act like we don't give a shit about you when you know we do. Why the hell else would we be going to the Gardening Cl

[...]

That sounds right, though. Who does he even like besides Prince?

Second Ward

[destructobot]

Oh my goddddddd, chill ouuuuuuut.

Maybe other Hogwarts people?
I don't know.
We could ask Mackenzie or something.

Second Ward

[casperkim]

Don't be dramatic and I won't be blunt.

That might be worth doing, yeah. Think we can trust Quayle to handle it or should I?

Second Ward

[destructobot]

We should embrace our natures, not defy them.

Here's an alternate question:
Do you actually want to endure a whole conversation with her about friends and parties?

Second ward

[gonnabefamous]

It was your birthday??

Second ward

[destructobot]

The most thrilling one yet.

Re: Second ward

[gonnabefamous]

Next year will be better.

First Ward

[firstposition]

Ms. Lilywhite is very impressive. I do not think anyone believes it is a slight against your skills. Ah, thinking about it is giving me sympathy pains, though.

I will be happy to practice with you. I need to put more time into duelling if I intend to become an Auror.

First Ward

[casperkim]

[...] Yeah. She is. I just expected more from myself by now.

Thanks. Maybe next time one of us will be able to disarm her.

First Ward

[ninjaleo]

That looked fun. I'm jealous, wish I could've had a shot.
Not that I would've fared any better. Glad you're ok. We should practice.

First Ward

[casperkim]

Fun isn't the word I'd use. But I learned a few things, at least.

I'm sure; you'd be fucked without a replacement beater. [...] Yeah. We should.

Thanks, Leo.

First Ward

[ninjaleo]

You know how I feel about learning things in defeat. It's a valuable moment.

I would. So don't ask for a rematch before Sunday, just in case.

First Ward

[casperkim]

I know.

Trust me. I'm not looking for a rematch any time soon.

First Ward

[ninjaleo]

And when you beat her next year, write.

First Ward

[casperkim]

[...]

You got it, captain.

Second ward

[gonnabefamous]

It's his birthday?

PARTY!
