Percy and OPEN

Since Percy was being raffled as one of the 'dates', he wouldn't be able to bid. Not wanting to participate in the fundraiser without contributing (particularly since he couldn't see himself raising that much for the Foundation), he stopped by the donation box and dropped in a bag with 20 galleons.

"It's the least I can do," he said to himself as the coins clinked in the box.

Percy + Melinda + OPEN

Sure, Melinda was fine with Oliver being raffled off for charity – maybe even more so than Oliver was – but she had still spent the majority of the money she had set aside for his, on tickets to win him. The rest, she had spread out between her friends, and two people she wouldn’t mind getting to know better; Percy and Marcus.

After she had added the tickets to the various bowls, she headed to the donation table to make her own donations, and just caught the murmur from the man in front of her. Shifting a little, she recognised him and sent him a smile. “You don’t think being raffled off is enough?” she asked him, dropping first Sweet Nothings’ pouch of coins into the box, along with an invitation for the Foundation to stop by her shop whenever on foundation related work with the children, and then the rather larger pouch from the Apothecary.

Percy was startled by the voice, but smiled when he saw who it was. He blushed a little at being caught in a moment of self-deprecation.

"That was Lucy's idea, which I strongly suspect came originally from Alicia's twins. When my daughter has something like this in mind, she can be quite convincing. In all honesty, I don't know why I said yes. I doubt I will bring in much money for the Foundation." He smirked. "I imagine people would be afraid that I would bore them with broomstick regulations."

“Ah,” Melinda nodded with a soft laugh. “Yeah, those two are the born charity advocates, aren’t they? They’ve been on me, too.” Though she only knew Lucy from the times she had been in the shop with Percy, she had no doubt, that if she got an idea, she didn’t let it go. Of course, it also helped that Percy – at least from what she had seen – would do anything for her.

“Well, you’ve never bored me with that, and uhm…” she gestured to the bowl with Percy’s name on it. “From the looks of it, you’ve already pulled in a pretty good amount already.”

"They're little terrors," Percy expounded, but affectionately so. He really did like Alicia and her children, otherwise he would never have had playdates for them and Lucy. Furthermore, they reminded him of Fred and George when they were young, and he had a soft spot for them for that alone.

"Thank you," he replied, and looked to the bowl at her gesture. There were a few tickets in there, and a light flush came to his cheeks at the sight. "Well, I suppose I won't have to apologize to Alicia after all," he concluded with a chuckle.

"And you, I imagine you'll be dropping tickets into Oliver's bowl tonight? Did you come with him, or will you be leaving with him after the raffle?"

“I’m sure they can be,” Melinda grinned. She was in a position where she usually only saw children on either their very best or very worst behaviour, and with the twins, she had only seen them on their best behaviour in order to get some of the sweets she produced.

Melinda smiled; even if Percy hadn’t collected as many tickets as he had, she doubted he had anything to apologise for. “Didn’t I see your name on one of the donated dates?”

Drawing a little to the side to allow the other people better access to the donation stand, she nodded. “I did drop tickets in Oliver’s bowl,” she admitted with a smirk, “and some in each of my friends’ along with some in a couple of bowls for people I’d like to get to know better.” Which included Percy’s. “But no, I came here with Marietta and Cho and am meeting up with Oliver when he gets here. How about you? Are you meeting someone here tonight or would you care to join us?”

Percy nodded, pleased his contribution had been noticed. "There is an exhibit at the Museum of Magical History that is quite fascinating and I thought it to be the perfect get-together for an occasion such as this. Even though they're being referred to as 'dates', there is no romance required, so why not add a bit of culture and history to the mix?"

Percy followed when she moved, making way for an older witch with a gleam in her eye and a purse full of galleons. "I'm sure your friends will appreciate your making bids on them. And thank you for the invitation, but I think I will pass for tonight. I've no wish to be a third wheel, and you no doubt will want to tease Oliver over whoever is unlucky enough to win him," he finished with a smirk. "Another time, perhaps."
