Who: Various combinations of Cedric Diggory, Mary-Anne Prewett, Xavier Ansari and Aisling Astor.
What: Xavier and Aisling are chaperoning Cedric's date with Mary-Anne.
Where: King's Theatre, Edinburgh.
When: Interval of Bluebeard's Castle, Wednesday 24th August.
Cedric's expectations for his second date through Lockhart's agency hadn't been high. His first date had been Daisy, who was nice and fun but who he definitely couldn't actually date because she was his trainee. It would be just his luck - and the cherry on top of an awkward sundae - if this time around it was Jun he was meeting. So when he'd spotted the blue rose pin on the pretty red-haired girl he'd mostly been relieved. It wasn't Jun, or anyone he worked with, or anyone else he wasn't allowed to even think about dating.
It had taken a while to find Mary-Anne outside the theatre, which was rather busier than the kayak place in Camden had been, so by the time they met they barely had time to exchange names before they were rushing in to find their seats. The opera itself left Cedric confused. He could sort of follow what was happening, but it seemed a very odd choice of activity for a date. He'd still said only a handful of words to Mary-Anne when he abandoned her in the bar for a moment to get them both drinks.
When he returned, Mary-Anne wasn't alone. "Xavier?" Cedric asked. "Aisling?" Well, he knew they were together now, but it was still a surprise to see them talking to his date.
