[Ellie]
I've some business to take care of in New York this weekend. I'll be gone Friday night into Saturday. Back either Saturday evening or Sunday morning. I'll probably have a few more of these over the course of the next month or two. Would you like to stay by yourself at the hotel, stay at my room in the mansion, or come with me? I'll be busy at least some of the time, so you'll have to keep yourself entertained while I'm away if you travel with me.

[America]
I need your services Friday and Saturday. I'll pay handsomely.

[Rogue, younger]
I'm having a house made. It won't be ready until early 2018, but I was wondering if you'd like to claim one of the spare rooms. I realize you do have a room of your own already, but I thought it might be an option to consider. If you're interested, I'd ask that you keep the space clean and not tell anyone where it is without clearing it with me first. There are some people who would do me harm that I'd like to avoid. Let me know whatever you decide.

[Albus]
Hello, Albus. I was wondering if you might have some time in the next few weeks to discuss some magic services I'm in need of. I know that you were the one Rogue and Erik turned to for their home and I was wondering if you might be willing to do similar for mine when it's done. I'd pay for the trouble, of course.

	...Places disappear if the person who owns them disappears, right? I guess it wouldn't hurt to have a back-up, just in case. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Emma \| Rogue faberges 2017-11-27 07:43 pm UTC (link)
	I believe so, yes. I haven't actually seen such a thing happen yet, so I couldn't say for certain. When it's done, I'll message you. You'll have a few rooms to choose from. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Emma \| Rogue notmaidmarian 2017-11-27 07:44 pm UTC (link)
	Cool, thanks. You don't have to do it though, if you don't want. You're not obligated or anything. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Don't be silly. I haven't done anything out of a sense of obligation for many years, darling. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well, thanks anyway. For being nice and stuff. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I can stay at the mansion. I'd just get in the way. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Ellie/Emma faberges 2017-11-27 08:04 pm UTC (link)
	You aren't in the way. Don't be ridiculous. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ellie/Emma teenagewarhead 2017-11-27 08:45 pm UTC (link)
	What are you doing in NY? If it's just for the weekend, sure. They're decorating the mansion, I kind of don't want to miss that but... like, if I don't see them doing it and just see the result? That'd be cool. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ellie/Emma faberges 2017-11-27 08:51 pm UTC (link)
	Securing a safe house for us in case of emergency. Picking up a few things. If you want to be at the mansion, that's fine. We can go in another few weeks when the city should be covered in lights and decorations. I just don't want you to think you're in my way. You're not. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ellie/Emma teenagewarhead 2017-11-28 01:21 am UTC (link)
	A safehouse? Is that really needed? Isn't the mansion safe? No, I want to go with you. It'll be fun. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ellie/Emma faberges 2017-11-28 01:34 am UTC (link)
	The mansion's exploded on more than one occasion and I don't feel good unless I have three backup plans at the ready. At least. Is there anything you'd want to do there in particular? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	....Yeah you got a point there. The MoMa? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ellie/Emma faberges 2017-11-28 01:43 am UTC (link)
	I usually do. We can do that. If you'd like we can stay the whole weekend. I think there's a special gallery going on somewhere downtown that'd be nice to see. No matter how long we stay, you need to have all your assignments done before Monday. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Ellie/Emma teenagewarhead 2017-11-28 01:47 am UTC (link)
	You're a smart lady. I'll work on them before bed. It's easy stuff, and I really want to see those mirrors. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I might need some help with the math. Ugh, math. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	We can work on that together. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Hello, Emma. I'll gladly help you with setting up wards. I'm assuming that is what you'd want? As an added layer of protection? And absolutely not. I'll gladly do it for you without worrying about any sort of payment. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Albus \| Emma faberges 2017-11-28 01:35 am UTC (link)
	Yes. I have a teenager I'd like to keep safe and who's to say she'll be the last. Oh don't be that way. Let me at least buy you a nice dinner? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Albus \| Emma liesbecomeus 2017-11-28 01:56 am UTC (link)
	I understand. I put wards up all around my flat as soon as we got here and that was before I took in more children. They do have a way of multiplying when you aren't paying attention. Well, I won't say 'no' to dinner. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Albus \| Emma faberges 2017-11-28 01:59 am UTC (link)
	You wouldn't happen to know how to make portkeys would you? And I sincerely hope Ellie is my last teenager, but I tend to have a soft spot for strays. Good. Is there any type of cuisine you especially like? Or any food restrictions? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I know the theory behind it but I've never given it a try. I didn't need one back home since I had my apartment on the Floo network. I'm more than willing to give it a try. If I'm unsuccessful, I can either put you in contact with someone else in my community; or if you want it to be more hush hush, I can seek out guidance and give it a second attempt. And I understand that. My Aunt Luna didn't really know much of anyone when she arrived, and certainly not myself, but I couldn't let her deal with everything on her own. That was how I acquired a second teenager.

I'm fine with any restaurant.

	Let's go for discretion. For now, at least. That's very sweet of you. Alright. I don't need these things right away. My home is still in the process of being built. How much time do you need to prepare your magic? And when would you like to get dinner? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I'll take a glance through my former textbooks and brush up on the theory. Since you won't need it anytime soon, I'll do some practice attempts in the interim. And I remember what it was like arriving when hardly anyone knew you.

The wards? A day is sufficient. Whenever is good for you will be fine in regards to dinner. I'll arrange with Luna and Credence about taking care of Helena on whatever evening we chose.

	Is there a limit to how far one can take you? Next week? And then perhaps again after everything's finished. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Albus \| Emma liesbecomeus 2017-11-28 03:03 pm UTC (link)
	Yes, but it isn't as limiting as apparating is. The problem back home was more getting the respective governments approval if you were crossing into another country. How far are we talking? Next week would be good. Perhaps Friday? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Albus \| Emma faberges 2017-11-28 03:24 pm UTC (link)
	One from here to New York. Another, possibly, to the west coast. And another one or two outside of the country. I'm still figuring out where. Are there places that are easier or better for you? Friday's fine. (Reply to this) (Parent)
