Who: Penelope Clearwater, Ainsleigh MacFusty, and Orsino Thruston
When: Saturday afternoon
Where: Penny and Oliver's flat
What: Penny and Ainsleigh are having girltime, and get an unexpected visitor.  Antics ensue.
Rating: PG?
Open/Closed: Closed (Unless Oliver wants to show up, too?)

It was not usual for Orsino to just show up at other people's homes unannounced or otherwise unexpected.  Given that Donaghan had done the very same to him only last week made him feel even more strangely about it than usual.  The fact remained, however, that he'd been dreadfully bored this Saturday.  He'd brought Seven out with him on an errand or two, including to pick up lunch, but when he'd gotten back to his flat he was still feeling antsy and restless.  Maybe he was beginning to feel the fact that they hadn't toured in a while.  In any case, and though it didn't happen often, Orsino didn't feel like holing up in his flat for the rest of the day with one of his projects.

The idea of maybe going over to Penny's and seeing what she was up to occurred to him.  It seemed unlikely that she was as bored as he was, as she always seemed to be doing something.  Before he had time to change his mind and think that it was probably rather rude and not very like him anyway, he'd apparated to the proper spot and walked the short distance to the front door.  Rolling his eyes at how stupid this was, he reached forward and knocked twice.

Leigh got random times off of work, sometimes they weren't even full days off. Sometimes it just seemed like off hours. She really didn't mind, but it did make a full Saturday off a strange occurrence. So she'd made the decision to see some friends.

After lunch, she and Penny had returned to Penny and Oliver's flat for some girl time and chatting. Leigh wasn't entirely sure where Oliver had gotten off to, but she was fairly sure it had something to do with Quidditch which meant she wouldn't see her other friend on her day off. Since Oliver and Quidditch meant he might not be heard from in over a week.

So Penny had excused herself to use the rest room, and Leigh had made herself busy looking at some pictures on the wall when she heard a knock on the door. She set the glass she had in her hand down and went to answer the door. Jaw dropping slightly when she was one of her bosses there.

"Oh sweet Merlin, please tell me Merton didn't get arrested because he tried to swim with some sharks at the aquarium." Sure she knew that Penny and Orsino had been spending some time together, and that Orsino was showing up to Penny's flat and not hers. But still you never knew.

Orsino had half expected that Oliver might open the door, which, he thought, would have proven interesting as he hadn't properly met the man yet. He knew what he looked like, although at the moment Orsino's mental image of Oliver also involved a kilt. To have the door opened and be greeted by Leigh, on the other hand, was not quite as expected. It had completely slipped Orsino's mind that she was friends with Penny. He wondered if he'd somehow apparated to the wrong place.

"Er. Hey, Leigh." He took a second to get his bearings. "No. I mean, not that I know of?"

The truth was, the scenario Leigh had just presented was entirely possible. He looked past her, trying to figure out if this was the right place. "This is Penny's flat, right?"

Well Oliver was an interesting bloke to meet. If Leigh found out that Orsino hadn't yet met Oliver, she'd probably try to stick the two in the same room. Oliver was just awesome in Leigh's humble opinion. Everyone should meet him.

Leigh did breath a huge inner sigh of relief. Although Leigh had put tracking charms on a great many of Merton's belongings. Privacy be damned. The man wandered off aimlessly for weeks on end causing her to worry.

"Oh, yeah, yeah. Right place." She said stepping aside to let Orsino through. "I'm just hanging out. She ran to the loo." Ummm.. yeah.

"Leigh you will never guess what I realised just now," Pennys voice was loud as she stepped through the hall. She stopped mid-sentance when she saw Orsino and Leigh chatting in the living room as though it was nothing out the ordinary.

"Hi Orsino," she said by way of greeting before unconsciously smoothing down her hair to make sure nothing was sticking out. "Do you want a drink?"

Glancing over when Penny entered the room, Orsino nodded in her direction for greeting. "Hey Penny. Sorry, I didn't realize you were having company." Her grinned at Leigh.

Since his intent in visiting was rather vague even to himself, Orsino didn't attempt to explain himself any further. They didn't seem to mind, anyway. Leigh just seemed relieved that he hadn't sniffed her out for the sake of making her solve one of the band's ever recurring problems.

"A drink? Just water, I guess."

Leigh looked at her friend strangely, but refrained from asking what exactly she'd realized in the bathroom, even if now she was a bit curious. Leigh let herself plopped down into an oversized chair and smiled softly.

"So what brings you out and about today?"

Bottles of pumpkin juice clinked against the glass of water as Penny set them all on the table. "Yeah Orsino," she echoed with a mischievious grin as she settled on the couch "I'm curious. Did you come to see Leigh?"

The water felt very pleasant on Orsino's throat. It had been feeling a bit dry all day, and he hoped he wasn't coming down with something.

At the questions regarding the reason of his visit, Orsino shrugged a quirked and eyebrow.

"Well no, but I can't complain. It's not everyday I get to bother her on a day off."

Leigh had her bottle of pumpkin juice part way up to her mouth when she gave out a slight chuckle at that. "No, you don't. You're one of the well behaved ones, who understand the words day off." She joked.

She'd tease them, but she really did love and adore her job.

"Is he very well behaved?" Pennys face was a picture of innocence as she brought her legs up to the chair and tucked her chin on her knees.

"We went shopping earlier," she said by way of explanation as her mind raced at how connected her friends were "When Leigh gets a day off I try and kidnap her for a classy lunch at Fortescues. It seems to work"

"Today I thought I'd see what it felt like to be one of the difficult children," Orsino said, looking up and rolling the glass of water between his hands.

He settled back into the couch, getting a bit more comfortable. This may have been unexpected for all involved, but it was nice.

"Oh, very classy, very classy," he agreed. "Lots of ice cream, I'm sure."

"Extremely, most of the time." Leigh responded without even thinking much on it, finally allowing herself to take a drink from her bottle.

"Hey, it's the classiest joint around. It's that and/or split that monstrously huge burger the Leaky has." She pointed out. And Hell, sometimes they did do both of those things.

"I have sort fuse when it comes to difficult. You're not making me pull my hair out."

At the mention of the Leaky's famous burger, Pennys stomach rumbled audibly and she stared down at it in horror. She'd already eaten an inordinate amount of ice cream as she and Leigh had gossiped over the fornica tables for what seemed like hours.

"I think you'd look good with a bald head. Think of the time you'd save on styling it. In fact, I'm tempted to do it. What do you think? Would I suit being bald?"

She struck a pose before giggling and taking a pull from her bottle. The last time she'd drunk with Orsino in this room, things had ended quite differently.

She took another sip of her beer.

The mental images conjured up by this line of conversation thoroughly unpleasant as they were, Orsino opened his eyes. However it was not in time to realize there was a couch cushion flying at his head. A strangled cry escaped his mouth just as it hit him squarely in the face and then fell off to the side.

"Okay, well, how about we stop talking about naked middle aged men, then, because I for one am starting to feel my stomach turn." He grinned slyly and tossed the cushion back at Penny, with no real intent of it hitting her or not. "That's no very nice, I have been nothing but lovely to you."

"Yes, no talk of naked middle aged men, until we're middle aged." Leigh said propping her feet up on the table. "And even then I will not discuss this. Since I'm just going to cougary and never see one."

Penny caught the cushion and tucked it behind her back with a grin. "Nothing but lovely to whom, Orsino? Leigh? "

Fluttering her lashes at both of them, she grinned "I think you'd make a lovely cougar Leigh. Were I male and twenty years younger, I'd be very concerned."

Orsino shook his head as the grin slowly faded. "Oh, to everybody, ever."

He raised an eyebrow at Leigh's delcaration, looking slightly concerned.

"That sounds like an admirable plan, Leigh. Although if Penny were male and twenty years younger, she'd be an infant and that might get you arrested."

"Not right now, wanker." She said tossing her own cushion at her boss's head. "Like when I'm middle aged." She said laughing. "So she's right to be concerned."

"When you're middle aged, Leigh you'll be lovely. Lines, wrinkles and age spots. Gorgeous."

"Do you think," she said as she watched the cushions soar through the air "that if I were a bloke, I'd be a good looking one? Or would I look effeminate with too much hair? Or worse, nose hair."

Penny had a real knack for saying the strangest things at the most unexpected times, and generally Orsino found that they tended to make him laugh. Which was what he did nearly before Penny had even finished musing on what she'd be like as a man.

Still chuckling, he finished off the glass of water and held it in his lap. "Oh, I'm sure you'd be a real lady-killer type. Though you have a point about the hair, you'd probably have to cut it. On your head, not your nose, I think you'd be okay there." He tilted his head. "Although obviously I would not be cutting your hair, as I am not allowed to even touch it."

Leigh laughed as well. "Would it matter?" She said suddenly. "Either way you'd be that super smart bloke on to making his first million galleons and end up with a hot model trophy wife."

"A hot model wife?" Penny stretched languidly as she mulled the thought over "I can see the appeal in being married to someone aesthetically pleasing and vapid. For about five minutes."

Polishing off the rest of her frog and licking her lips she wriggled further into the cushions. "You have plenty enough hair for both of us Orsino."

"A million galleons? I'd rather have a library and a bottomless teakettle."

As though checking the truth in Penny's statement, Orsino ran a hand through his hair. He peered into the bag of chocolate frogs and went for another - on a good day he could usually polish off several with little effort.

"Maybe I'll go bald someday?" He unwrapped the new frog and crinkled the wrapper between his hands much longer than was necessary. So what if he enjoyed the sound? "What would you do, Leigh, if we made you a millionaire?"

At times he still found it odd that he was Leigh's boss. He always felt like a boss ought to be someone older, and behind a desk, maybe in a fancy office.

"We'll have to find you a great toupee. You know keep the effects of aging at bay." She smiled thinking about his question. "Retire to Italy, get waited on by attractive men who will fan me with giant leaves?"

Leigh didn't mind her job. The boys were her boss in the way that they paid her, but her job was very much about bossing them around half the time.

"Where would you get a toupee from? Do you think Gilderoy Lockheart wears one? Ooh, who do you think wears one thats famous?"

She peeled off the wrapper for a second before tilting her head and raking her eyes over Orsino "When the Weirds are older they could always change their image and wear suits. Glasses are a bonus. Or you know, leather trousers."

"Italy has an abundance of really, really great looking men," she said in agreement.
