Challenge 16: Conversations with a Third Party
“Luna? Remember how I told you I was looking for Crumple-Horned Snorkacks in Aruba last week? I … I was actually on honeymoon with Snape.”
“Yes, but Crumple-Horned Snorkacks summer in Finland, Harry, I’ve told you that. Did you see any Blue-Nosed Goatfish? They’re fond of islands.”
“I’m trying to tell you that I eloped with Snape last week.”
“Snape? You saw one of the rare species of Cross-Eyed Brinklemorphs?”
“Luna, Snape and I eloped – chapel, ring, priest, flowers, happily ever after, cake and champagne – a wedding.”
“Funny, Harry, but everyone knows those don’t exist. I’m not gullible, you know.”
----------
“There would’ve been a lot of publicity, Rita Skeeter on a rampage, crying women, Howlers …”
“I’m glad to see you taking an interest in House Elf liberation, Harry, but I’m not sure that you’ve been paying attention to my work. It isn’t that high-profile, no Howlers or crying women.”
“I’m talking about my wedding, Hermione.”
“While I do support House Elf rights, I don’t think that’s appropriate …”
“Severus Snape and I eloped last week and spent our honeymoon in Aruba.”
“You didn’t visit the Mayan libraries? Harry, you promised me copies of some of their fascinating ancient scrolls.”
----------
“Oi, Harry, you missed the Cannons’ victory over Puddlemere, you should have been there. Oliver …”
“About that … Ron, I wasn’t exactly scouting for Quidditch talent.”
“Course not, I knew all along you were scouting for babes, who wouldn’t? Why else go to an island with sandy beaches, beautiful sunsets and tropical drinks?”
“I wasn’t exactly – I – that is – I eloped with Severus Snape and we spent our honeymoon there.”
“You missed a Cannons game for a honeymoon? If you were looking for girls that would be one thing, Harry, but choosing Snape over Quidditch? What were you thinking?”
----------
“You see, Albus, last week …”
Harry slipped an arm around Severus and placed a kiss on his lover’s temple. “God, Sev, you wouldn’t believe my friends, telling them was like forcing sand through a brick wall.”
“I see your trip for exotic potions ingredients was successful, Severus, but I never thought you’d give Harry a Befuddlement Draught. Honestly …”
“We eloped last week,” Severus said, “honeymooned in Aruba.”
“This is no joking matter, my boys. If Harry is Befuddled, we need to counteract it.”
Harry rested his head on Severus’s shoulder and sighed. “Forcing sand through a brick wall.”
