Daphne and Draco's Reception; Malfoy Manor [Various]
WHO: Wedding party and wedding guests
WHERE: Malfoy Manor
WHEN: 18 December, 1999; 8 p.m. and on
SUMMARY: Reception time! IN-PROGRESS THREAD.
RATING: Up to PG-13 may be in threads

Tables within the ballroom set, as the decorations for the rest of the room itself, to reflect a wintery theme to mimic the recently outdoors ceremony, a theme belied by the warmth from roaring fires in both fire places, guests ate and mingled and danced when not stopping the newlywed couple to congratulate them. Serving staff, rather than house elves, navigated the crowd with gleaming glass trays of drinks in uniquely shaped glasses, appearing more as icicles than glasses. Allyssa and Carina, still wearing their miniature white fur-edged cloaks to match Daphne's and their miniature tiaras to mimic the effect of matching without wearing something as old and priceless, darted between the guests with much giggling, skirts of their gowns flying as they careened around legs and over feet.

Daphne's hand found her husband's as Allyssa moved very close to them. She knew that Draco seemed to have almost a phobia of the children, something she found adorable and endearing all at once. Thankfully for her husband (and it seemed she couldn't think that word enough associated with him) he was spared when Allyssa dodged to avoid one very plump woman who had been one of the ones they had to invite. She laughed as she watched the girl scamper off.

In spite of such displays of affection not being exactly proper, she leaned in, kissing him fully on the lips. Mischievously she turned her head so that her lips were next to his ear, her breath ghosting over it. "Such things I've planned for you on our honeymoon, husband. I did vow to possess you after all."

Phobia was putting it lightly. From a more objective outside opinion, one might say Draco Malfoy treated children as though the phenomena of them was contagious. It was not as though he disliked children, he just was not comfortable with them and did not want any of his own. He knew it was an eventuality, but not for, hopefully a long, long time.

"Should they be running around like that?" he murmured, half annoyed question, half concern observation, having totally missed her attempts at seduction as he watched a guest nearly step on Allyssa, or so it looked to him. They were both so tiny and not everyone here was the epitome of grace.

Daphne wasn't put off by the fact that Draco didn't respond to her attempts to seduce him. Indeed, it seemed that nothing could make her unhappy today. Instead she focused on his concern for the girls.

"I doubt anyone could trample on two girls so cute as those are." She said, resting a hand on his elbow. She was glad for the chance she had had to grow closer to both of them during the wedding preparations, and she was certain that no one would dare harm them, particularly in their own home. She looked down at her hand, which was resting on his arm, and smiled. She thought her hand looked complete with ehr engagement ring, but the addition of the wedding band...well it seemed the most natural and right thing in the world.
