To say that Susan had had an interesting day was perhaps one of the greatest understatements since 'Hey, if we point sticks at one another our magic is scarier!' Her day had been equal parts annoying, awesome, and confusing, and the prospect of having her friends around for dinner had been one of the things that had kept her powering through her sleep deprived state. The brandy and wine at Rose's had helped too. Still, she had just enough time after seeing Rose to rush to the supermarket and buy panic buy enough products to feed a Quidditch match.

Two hours later: her kitchen smelled amazing, and she'd managed enough just enough downtime to slip into a cute little dress. She was just vaguely wondering where all the people were when the doorbell rang, and the first of her guests arrived.

Dean opened and closed his mouth a few times as he almost leaped to defend himself some more, but he couldn't quite make himself say the words, and instead he deflated with a sigh. "Oh, never mind," he muttered. He honestly wasn't shy about his body, just had trust issues and didn't want to give the impression he ran around naked all the time.

He decided he was also going to skip on the rest of the Eddie discussion. He wasn't good at relationships to start with and the added friendship element had him way out of his depth.

"Depends on how much you want to change," he said, latching onto the new topic. "You don't want to clash with the art, or anything, but the furniture is already fairly neutral."

Seamus could feel Dean's tension in the set of his shoulders, but there wasn't an awful lot he could do about it except keep his arm around his mate - and not let the conversation linger.

"Talk to Dominic," was the only advice Seamus had on the interior of Susan's flat. "Once you know what you want, he can help. Maybe before you know what you want." He looked around the room, though he knew his own eye for colours and design was basically non-existant. His own flat was a mishmash of things from the old pub, gifts and new generic items of furniture. "Or you could paint the walls white and let Dean do murals."

Susan groaned and looked at Dean. "I am going to shut up about your arse now, okay Dean?" She took a long drink of water and grimaced. "Drinking fățată țuică with Rose will always make my mouth run off. So please, accept my apology handsome. Everyone here knows that you don't actually habitually walk around naked."

"I think I will talk to Dominic" she agreed after a moment's thought. "I'm thinking of changing the green out there," she said, pointing over her shoulder to the reception room and stairs, to either a sort of light, dusty blue, and change the colour in here to a really pale, washed out honey colour?"

She grinned, glad that the conversation had moved away from dangerous and embarrassing waters. "Can I get a drink for anyone?"

Rose opened her mouth to let Dean know when it came to naked bums, she was convinced that he had nothing to be ashamed of, though opted instead for a long drink of her water when it occurred to her, that maybe that wouldn’t be the best comment for someone who most of all looked like someone wishing the cushions would swallow him up.

“Dominic’s amazing,” she smiled, because Dominic helping out Susan with the redecorating of her home was probably one of the best ideas she had heard today. Except she hadn’t meant to be this obvious about it, and once again stopped herself by drinking her water, this time finishing off what she had left, and could have wept with joy when Susan returned to perfect hostess mode.

“Water, please, thank you,” she smirked. “For the love of all things Hufflepuff, let’s get some more water here. Maybe you could go a little bolder than ‘really pale, washed out’.”

Susan snorted at Rose. "My house isn't that bad," she said, slightly defensively. "I just want to change the neutral in here to something warmer, and Slytherin green out there to something more palatable." She pursed her lips thoughtfully. "But you're right. Dominic is amazing."

Susan laughed as she walked out of the sitting room and into the kitchen, grabbing several jugs for water and ice. "Maybe if we drown ourselves in it, we'll sober up?" She called out, as she re-entered the room.
