Yeah, we're deviating from your budget. Sorry.

[She isn't sorry. And this conversation is basically over. Mirsam knows now what to do with Mildred Edgeworth. She pushes her hands in her pockets, totally self-assured with this, and briskly goes on.]

So, next weekend, then? In Hogsmeade. I have some thing to do before I start guiding you around.

I -

[For some reason, the logical, reasonable, intelligent thing to do - lie about the fact that she's busy then - does not occur to Mildred. Instead, she says, for some bizarre reason - ]

I - could do that, yes, but...

[And then, like this is going to work - ]

I quite doubt that you should like to spend such time on such an endeavor -

aslaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan

[dogette]

Yeah, that's why I offered, because I don't want to spend time on it.

[Dismissively, she tosses her hair.]

Edgeworth? Shut up. I'll see you Saturday. Three Broomsticks, it's easy to find, but don't get lost because I don't actually want to wander around looking for you.

I KNOW HIM also aggressive timeskip, who needs them saying goodbye, right

[ladyjustice]

But I - I don't -

[This is so utterly stupid. So utterly stupid. But - she doesn't have any excuses that wouldn't give offense, and Mirsam just saved her from injury; she's not about to allow offense to occur. So, finally, she just shuts up - ]

Fine.

[Which is not precisely a graceful thank-you, but it's the best she could do. And, indeed, that Saturday, she does show up at said Three Broomsticks - precisely on time, naturally, because even when she is reluctant to do something, promptness is a virtue - and waits there, winter cloak pulled tightly about her throat, a look of uncertainty on her face, unknowing whether it is etiquette to purchase a beverage when one is but using this place as a meeting place.]

timeskips are my bread and butter

[dogette]

[Mirsam has business in Hogsmeade, but business really just means buying a few large fireworks before she meets up with Edgeworth, who will likely disapprove. It's not that the fireworks are illegal, per se. They're sold, legally, by Zonko's... you just aren't meant to have them in school. But they're made for a reason, and that reason is to be enjoyed.

But a lecture isn't a way to start this trip together. So she gets her fireworks and then wanders, idly, towards the Three Broomsticks. And there's Edgeworth, waiting, tense, like she's waiting to sit an exam instead of waiting to have a good time.

Mirsam smiles to herself and shakes her head, before she slumps over to Edgeworth.]

Did you order?

mmmmm bread and butter

[ladyjustice]

[Mirsam looks perfectly at ease. Mildred feels like that mere fact, that comfort, makes her feel even more stressed. And that question stretches her tight as a bowstring - ]

Is one obligated to?

[Idiotically, she feels stupidly close to panic because of just that. Mildred is a powerful witch, absurdly adept at spellwork; she's an excellent and diligent prefect; she matched a school record, a few months back, for OWLs - but being out of her element sends her into a tizzy.]

i want some fresh bread maybe i will make some. churn some butter.

[dogette]

If you wanted to. Did you want to?

[She stops in front of Edgeworth and gives her a quick once-over. Stressed, definitely stressed. Why she would be stressed at the Three Broomsticks--where the prevailing mood is one of bright good cheer, especially when the pub is half-full of students on a bit of a holiday from studying--well, why anyone would be stressed in such a location is quite beyond Mirsam. But if anyone could manage to be stressed, in this case, it is Mildred Edgeworth, and here she is.]

Calm down, would you, I think you might-- burst a blood vessel in a moment, or something.

man I actually sort of enjoy churning butter no lie

[ladyjustice]

I'm not going to -

[Her jaw clenches shut as she realizes that her voice is just a little bit too loud; she drops her volume - ]

I will not burst a blood vessel. And no, I don't want - anything here. I don't drink alcohol.

you would, ya quaker

[dogette]

[Again, Mirsam arches her eyebrows, as if in disbelief.]

Shouting in pubs over innocent questions is an excellent way to burst a blood vessel, y'know. And start a fight. You don't need to drink alcohol, you could have a butterbeer.

Please tell me you have at least had a butterbeer.
