There had been no big shouts of 'surprise', Seamus knew Dean far too well for that. He'd just lead him up to The Roost after Battlescars and let him push the door open to reveal a sandy floor, warm salt-and-coconut scented air and a 'Starry Night' sky. There was a bar at one end of the room, stocked and ready for people to help themselves (Seamus wasn't working tonight, though he'd doubtless end up there showing off his cocktail skills at some point). Along the side wall were tables for the food, already containing Aunt Rose's jerk chicken and Seamus's attempt at a pineapple upside down cake, vastly outdone by Aileen Finnigan's cherry cheesecake next to it. The rest of the large room was scattered with deckchairs, apart from a small decked area for dancing. The music of steel drums floated from nowhere and despite the bleak grey sky outside the room glowed with sunlight.

Dominic laughed openly at Ali's suggestion. "I don't even know what else I can come up with," he admitted. "Inventing isn't really my line. The journals were Seamus's idea, I just had to work out how to implement it because Rowena knows he doesn't have the patience or the grounding in experimental charms." Not that Seamus was stupid, far from it, but he'd never actually finished his NEWTs and his seventh year, in terms of quality education, had been poor preparation.

He shook his head. "Wealthy widows can look elsewhere. I'm no one-woman man and I like having multiple projects on the go." That was literally true, and also true of his love life - though of course he didn't think of his efforts there as 'projects'.

"It should be possible," he agreed. "I haven't incorporated it into the basic model because different people want different things, but it should be easy enough to make the journal react to a new message. Maybe I should let people know I can show them how, or do it for them. But not everyone wants it to make a noise, for example, if they're going to be taking it to work."
