character: aidan lynch, character: cho chang

RP: Somedays you just don't want to put on pants.
WHO: Cho + OPEN.
WHEN: Saturday May 16th, evening.
WHERE: The Corner, Finnigan's Pub, Monument Alley.
WHAT: Cho is going over the month's books at the pub with a large glass of wine.
RATING: sfw.
STATUS: Ongoing.

Cho hadn't bothered doing her hair - it was brushed out, but that was it - and she word a simple t-shirt and shorts. She had spelled her accounting books down to pocket-sized notebooks and packed them all in a backpack before taking a leisurely jog through Muggle London and ending her afternoon at the crossing between to the magical world. Stepping through onto Diagon Alley - with her office right there in sight - still felt wonderful, and gave her a sense of accomplishment every time. Her jog had been enough to get her heart going but not enough to work up a sweat and so she decided on a stop-in at Finnigan's, instead of going to the office to do her monthly finances.

She ordered a glass of pinot gris and an ice water and soon all her receipts and muggle note pads and magic scrolls were spread out along her small table in The Corner. Cho wasn't accustomed to being out in public without her armor - her heels and her make up and her suits - but she figured maybe she could hide, do her work, and then get home before anyone knew the wiser. Truly, it was motivation to get her work done more quickly, wasn't it? Who else wanted to spend all of a Saturday night working on the books?

Aidan found himself most Saturday evenings at the pub. Some would find it quite sad, but it was his way of catching up on the latest
news in the wizarding world and see people he couldn't during the week.

He had been wandering from room to room seeing who he knew when he spotted someone he thought he knew.
Wasn't that Fin's ... friend? He thought it was. But she looked rather busy. A quick hello couldn't hurt, could it?

He approached her table cautiously. "Excuse me, don't I know you?" If he didn't, it could get really weird really fast once they recognized him- if they followed Quidditch.

Cho looked up at the somewhat familiar voice and gave a small smile, "Oh! You're Fin's friend, right? From the League?" Clearly he wasn't a Tornado or one of Fin's teammates, because then she'd know him by sight, but she knew he was familiar.

Standing to say a proper hello, it came to her, "Yeah," her smile brightened, "he introduced us here, didn't he? Aidan, was it?" Cho said a silent prayer to the old gods that her career was one that required she be good with faces and names.

	Aidan nodded, "yes, forgive me for forgetting your name though," he said apologetically. "How are you?" He asked, sticking his hand out for her to shake. It seemed like the thing to do. "I don't mean to interrupt your work." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Cho extended her hand, "Sorry, Cho Chang. Nice to meet you, again," she laughed lightly. "I'm doing well," she answered, "and you?"

Indicating her work, she laughed again, "Just the monthly books, I've been meaning to hire a proper accountant but opening the office put a hold on that. Would you like to join me?" She asked, nodding toward the empty chair across her table.

	"Nice to meet you again, as well. I'm doing good. Just enjoying an evening out." He moved to the chair she indicated. "Thank you." He glanced to the books, "oh, that's fun," he said without sarcasm. Perhaps that was the Ravenclaw in him coming out. (Reply to this) (Parent)
