 It is quite nice to be back! Christmas was good, of course; my parents sent nice things. But spending the holiday -- Ha, spending most days! -- with Lawrence is rather boring.

You are all quite more interesting! And now there is a whole new year to have fun in!

Does anyone have exciting plans for this year?

I'm going to be looking into an internship with the Ministry for Magic this summer.

[ificanmince]

Ah. Well, if that is interesting to you...

[fuckilovebooks]

Oh, it's fascinating! If I'mlucky this will be a way to get my foot in the door for my future.

[ificanmince]

You don't think you're a little young to be thinking about all that?

[fuckilovebooks]

Oh no, it's never too early to get a head start on your future.

[ificanmince]

If you say so!

[fuckilovebooks]

Have you given any thought to your future yet, Naveen? You have OWLs at the end of this year, right?

[ificanmince]

I do have OWLs, yes.

Passing thought?

[fuckilovebooks]

The OWLs you get will determine the NEWTs you can take your seventh year, which will determine your career choices for the rest of your life! You should give more than a passing thought to them.

[ificanmince]

I am sure I will be fine!

[fuckilovebooks]

Well for your sake, I hope so.

[ificanmince]

How nice of you to worry for me!

[fuckilovebooks]

Well, I don't want anyone to fail.

[ificanmince]

How kind of you!

[fashioneighsta]

Likewise, it's lovely to see you again. Well, read from you, at least for now.

[ificanmince]

Rarity! Thank you. We will have to meet up sometime, yes?

[fashioneighsta]

You know I'd never turn you down, Naveen! We should have a little post-holiday get-together.

[ificanmince]

Few things could be better! I will be looking forward to it, certainly!

[fashioneighsta]

Oh, but how ever will you find time? I'm sure you have dozens of girls waiting to see you.

[It's light teasing; she knows that she's worth prioritizing.]

[ificanmince]

Of course!

But for you, I will make time.

[nunganunga_k_o]

Lawrence?

[ificanmince]

Yes! He works for my family.

[nunganunga_k_o]

Works for? Like a butler of sorts? That sounds utterly fab.

[ificanmince]

He is quite handy! Not very fun, though. In fact, he is completely dull.

[nunganunga_k_o]

But having someone fetch things for you and not having to fetch things for yourself is quite literally marvy beyond words.

[ificanmince]

This is very true! It's quite the treat.

[lookupforme]

It's going to be this best year.

[ificanmince]

A wonderful attitude! Why is it going to be best, Cassie?

[lookupforme]

It's an intuition, sort of. I promised myself I'd make the most of it. For a new me.

[instantdrama]

Yeah, gotta agree. Hogwarts is always way more interesting than being at home.

This year is definitely going to be the year I make it somewhere with my music! I can... feel it. What about you, what've you got planned?

[ificanmince]

It most certainly is, although I might not find that the same if I went home to Brazil for the holidays!

Music! That is wonderful, Jude! You will have to remember me when you are famous, yes?

I do not have plans. I play things by ear.

[instantdrama]

As if I could forget you. You make an impression that isn't all that easy to forget.

That sounds like a pretty good way to spend the year. It keeps it exciting, huh?

[ificanmince]

Ha, this is true, isn't it?

It does, yes!

How was your holiday?

[instantdrama]

Very!

And it was really good- well. The presents part was great. My parents fought the whole time. But I'm trying to forget that part. I got a new guitar from my dad, even though my mum disapproved.

Something about me needing to focus on my grades or something. Like I'm gonna be a doctor-

Well, mediwitch, I guess? Or whatever the wizarding equivelant to a Lawyer is. Nah, I'm not cut out for that.
