Who: Fred and Patience What: a scavenger hunt! When: Saturday, I believe [backdated] Where: all over the place Warnings: TBA Status: Incomplete
Patience hadn't the faintest idea what to expect from this secret outing that Fred had planned. She didn't really need to know what was going to happen, though, since at the end of it she would be seeing Fred, and she was sure to have fun along the way.
As he'd promised, it began with a little purple envelope. Patience grinned to see it, and swallowed the last of her scone and tea before opening it. She bid farewell to her canine and feline housemates before leaving the house.
The clue led her to a Muggle costume store, which amused her. The man who owned it hardly even looked at her twice before giving her the costume that was waiting there for her: but he did glance back when Patience burst out laughing at what she'd been given. This was possibly the most conspicuous costume for a secret meeting she'd ever seen, but then, that was probably the point. What was it he'd said? Flamboyant was the new inconspicuous.
"Alright, Fred," she said aloud to no one, once she'd put on the top hat, fake mustache, and monocle. She lifted her hands to brush her hair back over her shoulders. "What have you got for me next?"
Something made her doubt that he was here, and that this was the end of the game. She had a feeling he'd gone all out this time, which meant there was likely another clue here - or perhaps he'd be sending her another.
