RP: Family Dinner Who: Lily, Faustus, Severus Where: Spinner's End When: Evening, November 14, 2024 Rating/Warning: Excited happy glee? Summary: Faus comes to his father's house for dinner Status: Closed
The dinner the evening prior had been different, and for a fair bit of the morning (after coming in from her kite-flying venture with Celeste), Lily had reflected over that. But it was different - Faustus was family, and Regulus was not. She'd certainly never been the sort to be formal with family and she saw no reason to start now.
So it was that after the cake was made and dinner was going, Lily changed into Muggle clothing. It was nice Muggle clothing - slacks and a button-up blouse with some ivy embroidered on it - but a far cry from the formality she'd extended to Regulus the night prior.
While she did give some consideration to bare feet, she decided that was a touch too informal, so she settled for her most comfortable set of shoes that were not her bunny slippers. She had a feeling Severus might have something to say if his favorite slippers made it down to dinner - even if they were hidden beneath the table. Really, now she honestly thought she just wore them to torment him. Playfully, of course.
Dressed and ready, the cake made and frosted, dinner being kept warm in serving dishes, Lily sprawled inelegantly across the couch to wait for Faus to show up.
