^date: november 03 2003, character: anthony goldstein, character: justin finch-fletchley

Characters: Justin Finch-Finely and Anthony Goldstein
Setting: The stands of Hogwarts’ Quidditch Pitch, during the memorial alumni game
Summary: Even those who don’t ride brooms need something to after the memorial service. Two old acquaintances meet again.
Rating: Probably work safe

There were a million things Anthony should be doing with an afternoon off. He had promised Penelope he would investigate he hand. He should be heading to the library. While he was there, he should be looking into the nightmares that had been plaguing everyone’s sleep. In fact, that had been Anthony’s intention after the service. Surprisingly, he couldn’t bring himself to do any of that just yet.

He hadn’t been particularly close to Harry Potter. Even when Anthony was a member of the DA, they hadn’t interacted much. They were in different houses, had different interests and few close friends in common.

Yet, Anthony morned for the loss of Harry. More than he would have expected. Of course Anthony would feel sorrow over the death of a schoolmate. Of course, he would feel something for the death of an important historical figure. Anthony couldn’t figure out why it should effect him beyond that.

So it was that Anthony found himself sitting in the stands while the players suited up. Even after the charms cleared the seats of water, mud managed to gather around the hem of his dress robes. If he couldn’t focus on work, he could at least make himself useful if someone took a stray bludger. He stared out over the overcast field and tried to clear him mind.

"Yes. Well, there was a bit of experimentation." The statement was true, but deliberately vague. The reality was more awkward exploration than titillating adventure. They had even compared notes at the end. The whole affair hadn't lasted long enough to be a proper relationship anyway.

Anthony shifted his weight nervously. He had no idea how the conversation had taken this turn. He turned his attention back to the pitch. "Look, they're forming up. I think the game is about to get started."

Still, something Justin said peeked Anthony's curiosity. There was a bit of knowledge to be gained, and Anthony hadn't been a Ravenclaw for no reason. "Kama Sutra? Obviously it's a muggle text, but what is it?"

Justin's mind latched on readily to the idea of experimentation, but was brought back to reality when Anthony mentioned activity on the pitch. He watched as Alicia grabbed up a quaffle and took off into the air. "Good girl, Ally. Back in the saddle... she hasn't played in ages, but I think she'll be all right."

A slow, lascivious smile came over his face at Anthony's question. He kept his eyes trained on the quidditch players as he answered. "The whole Sutra is a Hindu guide to living, but most people forget that and concentrate on one chapter that's dedicated to sex and the various possible possitions and techniques one can use to please a partner." An unconscious lick to his lip. "Some versions even come with pictures, too, to help 'visualize' better, or some such thing."
