Lucy, Megan, Stacey and open (3pm)
"We should form a committee," Lucy decided. "The 'get Zacharias to enjoy himself' committee." She snorted. "He'd probably hate that, but we should do it anyway." She laughed at the exchange between Stacey and Megan, waving a hand. "Nope, no, no talk about 'adults' on my birthday. I'm not getting old - I'm just having a pool party." Her tone bore a faint, deliberate, resemblance to a child singing 'la la la I can't hear you'.
Flattered by their outrage, Lucy pressed a hand to her heart. "Not leaving, not abandoning you, just... you know, moving into a house that I can actually afford to pay rent for? I can't live off Susan's charity forever." Like Megan, she paused a moment to reconsider. "Well, I probably could, she wouldn't stop me, but I won't. I'm going to find a nice muggle flat where I can have a TV and an oven I understand how to use and where my mobile will work - and then I'm going to get it hooked up to the floo so I can still get to everything in the magical world."
