RP: Regulus' birthday party Who: Astoria, Draco, Regulus, Remus, everyone invited (please add tags if your pup is going even if you aren't tagging) Where: Slytherin common room When: 16 July, 2025 Rating/Warnings: Summary: Astoria throws the best party the Slytherin common room has ever seen
Astoria had always loved the Slytherin common room. Sure some people found the cavernous appearance and assortment of skulls and snakes to be disturbing, but really, they were just like being home. That meant that she had nothing to cover them. There were more lights, but no matter how many floating candles you had, there was always a green aura from the windows and the lake. She found it very appropriate and refreshing. Of course, she added some things that weren't exactly part of the dormitory. She had asked Kreacher for anything that could represent the family. The house elf had returned with a beautiful green tapestry with the family crest (and not the one with the names, although Astoria wanted to see it) that now hang over the fireplace. There were also bouquet of flowers, white and black roses spread around the room. There were tables pushed against the walls for the refreshments, while the chairs were spread all around for people to talk comfortably.
Once the room had been taken care of, she moved onto the refreshments. It had taken longer than she had liked. She had once asked Narcissa about monitoring the Muggle world, and had learnt that the Ministry only bothered with the homes of Muggleborns and the areas surrounding them, and also for powerful spells. House elves were not monitored unless they performed wizarding magic. So she sent the house elves into the Muggle world, asking them to Apparate and steal from the stores after closing time. The problem was that they didn't know where to go, so it took them time to locate stores that would do. However in the end, they had plenty of champagne, caviar, smoked salmon, as well as plates of starters and other fine foods.
