Alright... Christmas Eve. You're not going to beat me. Everything is going to get done, the wee ones will be happy, and Ma will not have to come over to save me because I am a grown ass adult and can do this! Working Mums of the world unite? How many of them take bludgers to the chest.

[ Owen ]
Pretty sure I'm going to need you to go drop off some presents. Take Fergus with you and I'm going to try to put Rhonna down for a nap. Christmas Eve is going to be interesting...

Our children? Hyper? They're little lam

I'm sorry, I couldn't even finish writing that out, I was laughing too hard.

Sorry about that too. Must have been projecting. One of these days, though, I will impress upon you the joys of organization.

[Lorna]
Not the negative kind, I assure you.

Speaking of, do you think we could find someone to watch the kids for New Year's Eve? I know it's a bit last minute, but I'd like to go to London that evening, if we can work it out.

I mean, you'd think we'd be used to it. But nope.

If you come find me in the kitchen I can quickly tell you all the things that need to be done and you could write a list?

[Owen]
Excellent.

I'm sure we can find someone. Worst case, Mum and Dad would take them. What are we doing?

We never stood a chance.

I'll pop in in just a second. There may be clandestine wrapping going on somewhere in this house.

[Lorna]
Kumi and Anané's band are opening for some muggle group I've never heard of- also at a muggle club I've never heard of. Thought we might go for their set, then duck around to Diagon for the festivities there?

Based on having four younger MacFustys... I should have known better.

Oh? Now I'm curious.

[Owen]
Sounds like fun. It would be nice to have an actual date night for New Year's Eve.

And yet here I am, still letting hope spring eternal that they might grow up and eventually inherit parts of my personality.

You may remain curious until Christmas. Sometimes you have to let a man have some secrets.

[Lorna]
Enjoy it while we can, right?

They have to get out of their dragonling stage first before they start showing human personality traits.

Not if I discover your wrapping place.

Owen
Yes! Then back to training and playing after that.

Approximately how long does that usually take?

Don't make me make part of this house Unplottable.

[Lorna]
And paperwork and logistics and

Who thought it would be a good idea to grow up?

Have you met my sister It varies between MacFustys.

No transfiguring the house!

[Owen]
No one thought it ever.

That's fair. Terrifying, but fair.

Not even to expand the bathrooms as necessary? Does the garden count?

[Lorna]
Stupid inevitability and inexorable pull of time.

I believe I warned you of this when I got pregnant.

... alright you can expand the bathroom and fix the garden. But no mysterious rooms the wee ones can get lost in.

[Owen]
Going to keep trying to resist anyway.

And yet I remain, as ever, an optimist.

You have my word that our children will never get lost in their own home or garden.

[Lorna]
There's the woman I know and love.

And it's very attractive.

Good.

[Owen]
I try to keep it that way.

Glad you still find it that way.

[Lorna]
Just a couple more days, and then we can...

[info]mrs_dragon

And it will stay that way.

[Owen]
Bliss!

Hopefully our dragonlings will sleep like that tonight.

That would be a Christmas miracle.

I'm coming down now to start on that list.
