character: ernie macmillan, character: harry potter

Who: Ernie and Harry
What: ~~Trying not to get bored at~~ Enjoying a visit to the magical museum - their date from the raffle.
Where: Tutshill - Museum of Magical History
When: Sunday, October 19 - daytime
Status: Closed / Ongoing

Since he wasn't a stranger to their destination, Ernie sidelong-Apparated Harry to Tutshill. The Museum of Magical History was but a block away from the quidditch pitch where the Tutshill Tornadoes played and was easily visible from the stadium. The museum entrance would not look as such to the casual passerby as it resembled a giant, open dragon's maw through which the visitor would pass to get to the door. Ernie remembered as a child jumping up to try and grab the teeth, much to his father's consternation.

As they approached, Ernie hopped ahead a moment and tried to do his most hilarious tour guide impression. "And now we're approaching the Museum of Magical History. Please don't touch the dragons, feed the tour guides, or talk to the skulls on the wall. We've only just managed to keep them quiet."

Harry should have seen this coming, but there were worse people he could be with while bearing witness to whatever this exhibit was going to turn out to be. He let Ernie drag him along, and tried to keep an open mind. Maybe it wouldn't be that bad.

It was worse.

"That bloody woman won't be satisfied until I sue her," Harry murmured to Ernie, eying the sign with distaste. Of course, that's probably just what Skeeter wanted; a nice juicy lawsuit would be an excellent premise for her next book.

He sighed, and followed Ernie inside. "Unfortunately, I'm seeing it too." But he might as well try to enjoy himself, so he pushed aside the embarrassment and anger, and focused on the humorous aspects. Surely there were some!

The first thing Ernie saw when he stepped through the door with Harry was a life-sized mock-up of Harry, Ron, and Hermione. Harry was portrayed as rather heroic, Ron looked somewhat dazed, and Hermione seemed to have a sour look on her face that may have been an attempt at appearing strict. The three were poised with their wands out, as if they were about to start duelling Death Eaters right then and there. One by one, they each looked up at Harry and Ernie, who still hadn't let go of his friend's hand, then the figures looked at said hands before snickering. Ernie rolled his eyes and let go, but not before making a quip at the statues. "Hey, he could do a lot worse, you know."

Across from the trio was a small display devoted to Dumbledore's Army. There was a huge chunk of text talking about them and their supposed activities during fifth year at school - supposed because half of what it described were lies. Only a few members of the DA were named, and Ernie pouted when he realized his wasn't among them. "I save your arse from Dementors on the field of battle and I don't even get a mention," he said, overexaggerating his disappointment before grinning at his friend.

And then his eyes widened as he spotted another exhibit that was going to send Harry spare. The Many Loves of Harry Potter. He didn't think he could speak without bursting into laughter so he simply pointed in that direction. Even from this distance, he could already see that it was going to be interesting.
