WHO: George Weasley and OTA
WHAT: Down time after work
WHEN: July 19, evening
WHERE: The Leaky Cauldron

There was only so much time one could spend at work before being utterly sick of it. Things were getting done now that Verity was back at work and helping him more and more, but there was still a lot to do and after a while, he couldn't take it anymore. He just needed some time to sit and think and maybe have a drink. He clutched his work robes close as he walked into the Leaky Cauldron, smiling over at Hannah behind the bar.

The crowd was pretty sparse that night and he glanced around before he ordered himself a firewhiskey. The waitress was pretty, but there were important things to think about. George wanted to take Audrey somewhere nice, they needed some time alone. Maybe somewhere out east. He sipped his drink as he contemplated what it would take for them to go on vacation even when the summer was the busiest season for the shop. It was then that someone caught his eye, someone he thought looked familiar.

"Working on a quidditch line at the moment. Toy bludgers, snitches that explode when you catch 'em, things like that." George smiled and sipped at his glass again. He knew he should be inventing more, introducing more products into the store, but he was in a bit of a creative rut. There were times, days, weeks, months even when he couldn't think of a single thing, but he had to push though to make a living

	Terry, however, was impressed by the idea as it were. "Brilliant," he said with a laugh. "They ought to be a hit at pickup-up quidditch games." The waitress came by with Terry's butterbeer, and he lifted his glass to George before taking a sip. "I'm definitely going to have to stop by one of these days." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"I just need to get the snitches to stop burning after they explode. Caught fire to my hair a couple times." George was beaming as Terry lifted his glass to him. It was nice to be able to talk about the shop without actually being there. And with a stiff drink in his hand.

"What have you been doing with yourself lately? It's been years" George grinned over the rim of his glass as he took another drink, they were chatting it up like two old ladies. But it had been years since they'd spoken and reconnecting was more than welcome.

"Helping my father out on his projects," Terry said smoothly. "He works on bringing drinking water to desert cities, and the latest project is a water filtration project for Cairo."

Everything about that was true - except for the part where Terry was involved at all. Then again, spies didn't really go around announcing their occupations. "It's very Muggle, but it's been hard to...you know, get back to the wizarding world."
