Though some might call Astoria a prude for always caring about proper public discourse, for her part, Astoria just thought herself kind and sensible. She was raised to expect people to act in certain ways and so long as others were gentlemanly or lady like in public, she didn't really care what they did on their own. She had to admit, some might have found it MORE strange that she had such a friendly reputation with a Weasley considering her future husband never got along much with them. Astoria wasn't bothered by that much. She saw no need for her and Draco's acquaintances to perfectly match, and there was nothing about Mr. Percy Weasley that could be said to be ungentlemanly. He had fine taste in clothes, was polite, kind and very intelligent. To put it plain, she liked him immensely and considered him one of her favorite male clients.

When time for the appointment came, she called to her assistant and asked her to show Mr. Weasley into her studio/office. She had pulled fabrics in colors she thought would suit and stood up in time to see him being led in.

"Lovely to see you again, Mr. Weasley. I took the liberty of pulling the patterns from your last set of robes. Come on in, I've got some fabric swashes for you just here, take a look!" She have him a beaming smile and held out her hand to greet him. "It's always a pleasure when you're in the shop.

She shook her head. "I knew you'd never dream of it. But the kindness of the statement won't be forgotten."

She nodded and made a note on his file that he'd pick up the robes himself before sending them on. "Excellent, that means we should see each other again soon, assuming I'm not slaving away on some other project." She laughed at his statement at needing fresh air. She didn't knew if she needed air, but it would be nice on occasion. "I can understand that," she said, shaking her head. "I never get enough of it now, so I can certainly understand the need for it."

She was glad he reacted positively to her suggestion and smiled even wider. "I'm very glad, Mr. Weasley. I've always wanted to do such a commission, and I have some excellent ideas. Perhaps a charm that will allow her to make snow angels without catching cold?"

	"That charm sounds perfect," he agreed with a nod. "It should also come in handy for the eventual Weasley snowball fight that always seems to result from family gatherings in the winter." He looked down at the sketches one more time before straightening up. "Had you said you needed some more measurements before I go?" (Reply to this) (Parent)
