Who: Draco and OPEN
When: Tuesday 31st March
Where: Astro Apothecary
What: Checking out the shop
Rating/Warnings: Low/None - will update if needed

Draco hadn't exactly announced his return loudly, he'd let his friends know Blaise, Adrian, Greg - if he checked his owls. But other than that he simply slipped into town and didn't make a ripple. He was pretty settled in the flat above the shop and had been checking out the fittings. It wouldn't be long before he was ready to open, he really should contact Chang about an opening party but he was putting it off. Eventually there would be no more excuses to use but for now he focused on getting everything ready.

Moving out the front he nodded as the looked it over, another coat of paint and the delivery of the sign would make the front ready to go. He'd kept his name off the sign for obvious reasons, it would simply read the name of the shop. It was all they really needed after all.

"Nice idea but I can't imagine many of those I used to know would attend. But maybe I'm wrong" Draco added, he didn't want to be a negative voice though he honestly couldn't imagine something worse than sitting around with any of those who had fought with Harry and the others and talking about feelings. If it helped then great but Draco would be steering clear.

"I can use my imagination" Draco said, "I'm sure it's great. It's a pretty decent sized space for those kinds of clubs" He'd liked the duelling and chess sessions, as long as it didn't become an us and them thing.

Dominic shrugged. He didn't know who attended, but he did have a feeling that Seamus wouldn't worry as much as he did - or at least, would worry about different things - if there weren't some former Death Eaters among his regulars. "He means well," he said, sensing that that could call an end to the topic. "And as long as he's not hurting anyone..." He finished with a permissive gesture.

"Yeah," he agreed, lighting up as he talked about the space that was almost as much a home to him as his own flat. "We throw other parties too, sometimes. I covered the floor with sand for Dean's birthday last year, and I've done some cool stuff for our customers with kids. Made the walls soft and bouncy, that sort of thing." Glancing at Draco, he tried to reign in his enthusiasm and return to the point at hand. "They've just started a new tournament in the chess club, I think," he said, figuring that was the most likely option to be of interest.

Draco knew Seamus meant well but it wasn't easy for someone who'd been on the wrong side of things to surround themselves with those they had wronged and expect no backlash. Putting themselves in that position by choice was hardly ever going to happen. But it did mean something that Seamus was trying. Not everybody hated them.

Smiling as he listened to Dominic talk he nodded, "Sounds like a versatile space" he said, "And I have to admit to being interested in the chess club"
