Private Message to Seamus

Do you have a suitable escort yet?

I'm coming with Crispin. It took ages to get him to say he'd answer the invitation. Can you imagine he wasn't even going to go? Lucky for him I know this party is sure to make all the headlines, though not necessarily for the reasons Daphs might want.

Anyway. Say you've got some sort of date or we'll have to think of some other way.

I don't have a date.

Any ideas?

[alt_padma]

You had one job! Okay... just come over. Grab your dress robes first, though.

There's got to be somebody who'll say you're with them. Oh, and what about your papers? I expect you're fine being out in NL after dark, given that you're a Councilwizard. But make sure you have them!

[alt_seamus]

Oddly, a half-blood who's not romantically interested in girls is not a date large numbers of society witches are eager to bring along as their plus-one. Even if he IS a Councilwizard.

I'll bring my papers, don't worry.

[alt_padma]

You've been asking witches?!

Lakshmi, did you lose your mind when those stinkbombs went off in the tower last week?

Ganymede Bobolis. That's who needs to take you.

Let's just hope he doesn't already have a date, himself.

[alt_seamus]

A half-blood isn't a particularly hot date for the gay society wizards, either, and there are a lot fewer of those. (I did try Greengrass's dancing teacher, but he had a date already.)

I should've thought of Bobolis. He's a lot older than I am, but so's Crispin, I suppose.
