It involved physics. Which was never really something that should be applied to a damn thing that Jimmy Potter was doing, in particular when he was at a table that had a flame on it. A small one, yes, but still. There was fire, and there was the paper from his straw's wrapper which was very flammable. And Jimmy was currently sitting sideways in his seat, slowly leaning back towards the floor. Anyone looking at him might have thought that he was playing with gravity for hell of it. But as one got closer, they might noticed that he had a spoon on the table before him. One that had a tiny bit of that straw's wrapper balled up tightly and sitting on the end of the handle. Jimmy had one finger on the head of the spoon, facing toward himself. He slowly aimed, head almost all away around like an owl.

He hit the spoon's head and the paper went up into a careful arch as it landed without sound into Andromeda Tonks' wine glass, Jimmy's grin wide as the woman didn't notice. He loaded the spoon up once more, now aiming for her plate. But the figure of his date was finally there, and instead the paper bomb shot off his spoon and right onto the nose of Stubby the Rock Star.

Jimmy looked up at the man, his brows inching higher as he stayed in that same awkward position.

"I meant to do that?"

"M'a badger." He said, giving the other man a bit of a nod in gratitude for holding the door. He scratched his ear and again reached for his cigarettes because, really, they helped him think. He sniffed a little and looked at Jimmy.

"Thought I wasa mugglborn when I first showed up at Hogwarts, right. Me mum was a muggle, not a stitch a magic in that family ever. Was me Dad was a wizard but he fucked right off when I was born, leaving me none the fuckin' wiser about it, right. I didn't know 'til I was older. Sorta miss that inna way, bein' a muggleborn, though I never was. Not really."

He'd never really heard of anyone with that life before, but he supposed that it must happen. But more than that, Stubby was proving to be interesting to Jimmy, which could be a good thing. After all, Jimmy had really no idea what he was in for as they braved the snow towards the theater that Jimmy had to work in day in and day out. He actually liked his work there, but it wasn't like it captivated him or something. "My Mum's pureblood and my dad's half. So I grew up with it," Jimmy said with a shrug, wishing he'd thought to bring ear muffs at that point.

Stubby didn't say anything at first, he just stretched an arm out and dropped it lazily around the boy's shoulders. The punk had a bit of a funny way to his walk, his knees seemed to always want to bend just a little too much and his boots, with their laces untied, seemed constantly ready to slip from his feet.

He hummed a bit, amused by the cold weather. "What do ya like for fun, Jimmy-boy? Want to know what I should have in mind for later, yeah?"

Jimmy was surprised by the question, his brow raising as he looked at the other man and then to the arm around his shoulders. "Um, well. I spend a lot of time walking around town with my dog. I spend time with Helga Hufflepuff and my relatives. I read," he said, not adding and I pine after a wanker who will never like me back. That might have been a bit too much information for a forced blind date. "What about you?" he asked once more, looking at Stubby.

"Been playin' my music, right? I hav' a guitar an' if I didn't I'd probably be broke off my ass 'cause I don't know the first fucking thing about making watches. Never been all'at skilled with my hands." He hadn't been referring to what Jimmy actually did around Lockewood, but if that's where he wanted to go with that then sure. "Wot sorts of music do you listen to, Jimmy-boy?"

Jimmy, being innocent as he was, did not realize that the other man had been asking about his sexual needs and desires. In fact, Jimmy was very sure that a kiss would be where that night would end. That the condom in his wallet would once more be lonely and cold that night, much like it's fumbling and rather unpolished master. "Oh, well. I guess most of the music I know is way ahead of you," he said after a moment, chewing the inside of his cheek. "But I like jazz. I can't really... deal with music being on while I work, but jazz works. Coltrane. Not like... shitty elevator stuff."

	"Jazz." This made Stubby smile. As hard, and loud as his own stuff was, he did have a taste for all kinds of music. It had been early rock and roll that had originally piqued his interest, and that certainly had it's roots in that jazzy sound. "Dig that, yeah." His arm moved lower from the other man's shoulders, to his back, to his waist. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Jimmy looked at the other's hand, stopping dead in his tracks for a few moments as he blinked at it, before looking at the other man. His face was wide open, eyes a little wide as reality hit him like a ton of flour. "You're bent!" he said, not as an accusation, but rather as merely a fact. "I mean- Jesus, I get Skeeter managed to do one pairing right," he said, not even bothering to hide his status anymore. His father knew. His sister knew. Who else mattered, really?

"Bent!" Stubby smirked. "Ah, lovely, I just know a good opportunity when I see it, and yous is one good opportunity."

As was Fabian Prewett, which he found out in a few of the Hogwarts bathrooms, growing up, and at least thirty or so other men between then and now. There were more women, of course, far more for him to ever be able to count, let alone remember, but when the mood struck him, he didn't care about the finer details about what happened to be in his partner's jeans.

Well. It had been a while since 'hes'ds' been a good opportunity. Not that Jimmy really knew how that had come about, but he was going to go ahead and just make a wonderful assumption then and there.

He was going to get laid. Well. He was going to get off at least, and that was really worth celebrating after almost nine months of nada. He could have had a baby in that time, but to have had a baby Jimmy would have needed to have had sex. With a girl.

Alright, so no baby.

But that didn't stop him from being very, very awkward as he looked at Stubby and blurted out his next phrase.

"I like condoms! I think they're just... brilliant. Great for... not getting something. And balloons, if you're really in a tight spot and the person you're throwing the party for is really, really stupid."

Stubby scratched his eyebrow. "Think condoms are the best way I know a'gettin' to know someone better, Jimmy-boy."

It was hard for Boardman to find anyone particularly strange. He may assume, really, that Jimmy was on something far before he assumed that this was what he was normally like. Either way though, it hardly mattered to him. Potter's apparent eagerness was really all it took for him to smile.

"So hows about we skip the theatre and come back to place, yeah?"

"Place?" he asked, looking a touch confused at the other man for about two seconds. "Oh! You're place. yes. We should do that- or my place, though my brother lives there," he said, trying to remember silence charms for rooms very hard at that point.

Jimmy, generally, was not easy. He did not have sex on first dates, and really did not like the idea of just having sex for sex. But he was also a guy, and well. He wanted to have that feeling of being helped out a bit, and that included maybe doing this, just once. It would be okay, he was sure. And it wasn't like the one person he did want that emotional and sexual connection with gave a damn.

"Ain't seen mucha my flatmate around, so I doubt we'll be seeing him at all tonight. Could be good, right Jimmy-boy?" He knew the date was meant to end with a kiss, but he didn't know what the policies were supposed to be on kissing before the date was actually over, so he thought he'd just suck it up and take his chances, catching Potter's chin roughly with his calloused fingertips, and giving him a kiss.

Jimmy had been about to start walking them back to the cottages when Stubby bluntly kissed him. The rocker tasted strongly of cigarettes, but he didn't care as had a moment of pause before pushing into the kiss as well. He felt good, he felt more than good right then as he just... was. He was being kissed, and that was alright. No one could fault him for being kissed on Valentine's Day, not really. Slowly pulling back, Jimmy kept his eyes shut for a few seconds before finally letting out a low breath. "Well. I think it could be very good."
