Dean sighed with exasperation, "Susan!" It wasn't that he was ashamed in the slightest of what they'd done, but he was a relatively private person, and he didn't exactly want it broadcast to everyone.

"No, she is right. And I should enjoy that very much," Ophelia said, leaning up and kissing his cheek. "And," she said into his ear so just he could hear, as he lent down slightly to accommodate her kiss, "you should see if you can make me loud."

That made Dean swallow very hard at a sudden thread of desire. It was unusual for him, given how wonky his libido could be, but he was pleased. If his libido was on an uptick that might mean one less thing to explain to Ophelia right away, and, he realised as the conversation continued, he really did need to do that soon. Definitely more information than she had now.

He shrugged. "My mum's pretty fond of Wimbledon, I never saw much of the appeal. Football was always more fun."

"Oui, I am glad that Dean invited me. I had not heard of this Fawley Foundation before, but I think it is an excellent thing, cause is the word, oui?" Ophelia said. "I think I should go and buy some tickets of my own, excuse me for one moment, please. It was so nice to see you again," she added to Susan, before beginning to make her way through the crowd to the table for tickets.

Dean watched her go, smiling softly, for a few seconds before turning back to Susan. "It really is going well tonight. I just wish I could have donated a little more, but hopefully after the show is over I'll have some more to spare."

"What," Susan asked with an air of complete if not convincing innocence. "I am merely saying you should go and enjoy the art. Be as artists! It's not like I told you to do the whole 1960s art commune thing and paint naked, did I?"

She lifted an eyebrow as Ophelia murmured coquettishly in Dean's ear, making him gulp audibly. She tilted her head for a moment, wondering vaguely if Dean had managed to accommodate the erratic fluctuations in his libido that his potions caused. They'd never really discussed the problem of course, but Susan was observant and she was sure it had led to the premature end of more than one of Dean's relationships.

"My grandparents always used to drag us when we were kids," Susan agreed with a nod. "My grandmother is ever so proud that her daughter is witch, even if she doesn't understand what it means, so she liked to parade us off in front of her friends."

She smiled at Ophelia, touched by her brightness. It was a shame, really that she and Dean would probably inevitably break up. Or if they didn't, that their continued coupling would probably drive an uncrossable gulf between Dean and Seamus. "It was lovely to see you again too Ophelia. I must remember to come and see you very soon about a necklace I'd love to commission."

She reached up - deeply thankful for the heels which left her slightly less shorter than him than usual - and patted him on the shoulder affectionately. "I can always buy a bunch of tickets in your name," she teased. "Or perhaps commission a couple of pieces for something that I may have in the works depending on my brother." She smiled at him with the dazzle and intensity of the sun coming out behind the clouds. "I'm so very happy that you're happy, Dean. You deserve every inch of happiness this world can give you."

"Getting paint everywhere isn't all that fun to be honest. I imagine the same goes for clay," Dean said, to which Ophelia nodded.

"It can be quite fun until you have to clear up," she said with a little smile, looking Dean up and down somewhat covertly, but with clear appreciation.

Ophelia nodded gaily, "Please send me an owl, we can arrange a meeting," she said.

Dean rolled his eyes at Susan. "No, it's fine. Come December and I should be feeling flush again, I hope. I'm hoping the show might bring in more commissions too," he said, smiling at her. "Not that I won't do them if you want them, but dates with people I don't know isn't my thing, even if they aren't romantic." He shrugged, not all that bothered by talking about his triggers now Ophelia was out of sight.

"Thank you, gorgeous. And I am. Well, I'm getting there. Still a bit unsure in places at the moment, but getting there."

Susan snorted and nodded. "There are places paint and clay just shouldn't go, quite like sand in that regard I feel," she said, actively trying to repress the urge to laugh at the sudden vivid mental image of Dean painting buck naked.

She paused for a moment at Ophelia's words, but decided that for Dean's sake she'd pretend she hadn't heard them. There'd be plenty of time later to gently tease him about the whole thing.

"Of course," she said with a warm smile. "I'll send you one tomorrow morning to arrange a time and a design."

She narrowed his eyes and peered at him intently for several moments. "Has Seamus been checking up on you lately," she asked shrewdly. "I know I've been a bit lax, but I may have to put my foot down and have you and Ophelia over for dinner one night soon." She allowed herself to smile again at the mention of commissions. "Well I'll definitely be taking you up on that dear. My brother's asked if he could have the house after all, and I've been thinking of actually using all that gold I have lying about to buy myself a house that various members of my family haven't-" she paused, deciding to not finish the sentence. Dean didn't need to think about various members of her family being murdered in her house. "I'd like to have a fresh start."

"Well at least you know yourself well enough to know that dates aren't your thing, although a date with Seamus would've been alright surely." She gave him a big smile and felt herself growing misty eyed for a second. "As long as you're striving towards getting happy then that's what really counts," she said.

If Ophelia's comment had been a little less in the public eye he might have made something of it, as it was he was sure he'd hear about it later. Susan was an excellent friend, but could be thought to be a little too invested in the love lives of her friends sometimes.

Being used to Susan's scrutiny Dean just sipped at his juice while she looked for whatever cues he didn't realise he was giving off. When she spoke he rolled his eyes. "Sure he's been doing his bit, dragged me out of the studio and off to his parents' place ... huh, start of last week. I hadn't realised it was that long since he dragged me out. He's done his bit though. And I bet he's been busy getting ready for this," he said, frowning slightly. He had seen rather less of Seamus than he usually did and could do with fixing that.

"Yeah? It'll be nice for you to have a fresh start," he said diplomatically. He knew the house held a lot of difficult memories for Susan and as hard as it might be to leave it behind it might also be a good thing for her.

He rolled his eyes. "Sure since it's only a 'date'," he said, making the necessary quotation makes marks with his hands, "but he wasn't one of the options." Justin was though, and Dean assumed Seamus had bought plenty of tickets for him, which made the ghost of a frown pass over his face. He curled an arm around Susan's shoulders and hugged her to his side. "I'm always working towards being as happy as I can be. Most of the time it's going pretty well," he said.

"Yes of course, he's very busy," Susan said with a nod, deciding to leave aside the fact that Seamus always found an excuse to be busy when Dean started seeing someone. "Still at least you have Ophelia, and I might make you some food some time this week." She took a moment to look around, wondering if Seamus was actively avoiding them, or had actually convinced himself that he didn't have time to come and say hello.

She laughed quietly, touched to the quick by his valiant attempt to be politic. "It will, handsome, it will. I've been told that I should take a man along with me, get the realtor to think a couple's buying the place," she said, giving him a smirk. "I would ask you, but you know you have a show coming up."

"Oh Dean," she said with a sigh. "Air quotes, really?" She chose to completely gloss over the comment about dates and Seamus, particularly when Dean frowned for a moment - thinking no doubt of Seamus going on a date with someone else. She leant into the hug and patted his back. "I'm glad," she said with absolute sincerity.

She started for a moment, when she heard her name being called. She looked over and saw Eddie and a few friends from work. "Do you mind if I leave you for a bit, handsome," she asked, before giving him a quick kiss and walking away.
