Summary: Ryan and Riley are both home for once!
There were times when Ryan wondered why his parents had chosen to stay in England after the war. Growing up here, sure, but they were adults then, starting a family, and the place was just dreary. Looking out his bedroom window at the gray rain pounding down around their little flat, Ryan could almost imagine himself with an American accent and deep golden tan. Surely Seamus and Lavender could have settled in the islands or something, couldn't they have?
Shaking his head with a slight smile to himself, Ryan caught sight of the pile of books he still had to read for classes in the morning, sitting on his desk ignored. Not taking any Monday classes had been smart, it gave him a full morning interning at the Ministry, and all night to do his homework so he didn't have to waste his weekends with it. But university had been more demanding than he'd imagined, and even with his excellent marks in History of Magic growing up, the history major he'd undertaken was kicking his arse into last Century. All in the name of the greater good, though, he'd told himself hundreds of times since classes had started nearly two months before, and someday he'd be the Head of a Department in the Ministry, any department he didn't particularly care.
Making up his mind to get started, he headed out to the kitchen for a hot chocolate and a snack to begin his reading with.
