"I'd be 'appy to 'elp you," Magnus said to Paddy.

"Got any yummy drinks without Pineapple there Harper? Gaia?"

"The passion fruit fizz, mango papaya, and the dragon fruit smoothies don't have pineapple. Sorry that the rest do! When I think tropical, I think pineapple! But I know not everyone likes it."

[img align=left]http://i.imgur.com/MniU7Q0.png[/img] Eros' grabbed one of the grapefruit pineapple drinks and his face scrunched up a bit at Gaia's suggestion to limbo dance. "Fun? Yeah, no," Eros shook his head no slowly for emphasis. "Not a chance."

Magnus wrinkled his nose. then he carefully sipped the passion fruit drink as if he suspected poison. "This'll work," he said, "not me favourite but it'll work. I'm not er...always the most adventurous when it comes to things I ain't ever 'ad."

[img align=left]http://i.imgur.com/9amZoj2.png[/img] "What is it with you and pineapples?" Gaia had a mild look of disgust on her face "We need to discuss your eating preferences." She smiled at Eros () "Limbo is quite fun when you are flexible! But if no one is up for it I am sure there will be other surprises."

Gaia looked at Magnus () "Yeah I am not sure why she keeps bringing pineapple for everything. I mean there IS coconut and guava, but pineapple is just icky." ()

[img align=left]http://i.imgur.com/MniU7Q0.png[/img] Eros grinned at the face Gaia made. He took a sip of his drink and let out a satisfied sigh. "I don't know what you're talking about. Pineapples are awesome. I like them sweet and tangy," he replied as he stared at his drink and then to her. "Probably top three favorite fruits of mine," he shrugged, hiding a bit of disappointment that neither Magnus nor Gaia liked the fruit. "I think they taste good with a lot of recipes. Adds a bit of sweet tang."

((ooc: also, I got like a lot of social events this week and weekend so if I'm MIA or scarce, that's why, sorry!))

"I don't like coconut," Magnus replied. "But to be honest, its not that I don't like pineapple... I mean its okay. But me family friend's deathly allergic so not much point getting used to it cos I don't wanna you know, make 'em sick."

[img align=left]http://i.imgur.com/9amZoj2.png[/img] "Pineapples are sort of gross and weirdly textured. Just saying." Gaia shrugged "Passion fruit on the other hand is delicious." () "I don't mind coconut on stuff, but I don't like coconut water." ()

[img align=left]https://sapi.subeta.net/shared/230448.png[/img] "I really like tropical flavors. Merlin (), I think you would like the mango papaya drink. I'm not a fan of papaya but coconut and pineapple are two of my favorites," said Poppy as she helped herself to a pina colada. "This is so refreshing Harper ()," she murmured meaningfully with a cheeky grin. "Is it your recipe or Aquilino's?"

"I think short hair would really suit you ," Poppy said.

(OOC: Sorry for the absence! I'll read through what I've missed and will be around tonight. Tomorrow I'm going away for the long weekend.)

"Its also highly acidic, so can give you 'eartburn," Magnus said

Harper blushed.

"I have to admit, he did help," Harper said to Poppy (), "but most of it was me!"

"Funny 'cause I bake at Hogwarts all the time too and the elves let me borrow things. I need my fix of lemon cookies. I don't want to do it for the living either, its a hobby and also to eat sweets! Haha, I love food." He nods. "Curse breaker sounds cool, I want to be both a dragonologist and an auror. I know the first option is probably what I'll do forever, since I just can't imagine my life anywhere but with the dragons."

"I'm sure I would like it. I'll try that one next, when this one is gone. Piña colada looks delicious thou." He was debating on which to get.

[img align=right]https://sapi.subeta.net/shared/229921.png[/img] "I usually do my baking after supper, so I don't get in their way. There have been times I've lost track of time and have gone past curfew and they have hidden me if anyone came in. I don't know what I would do without them. They're so wonderful. I usually leave what I make in the Hufflepuff common room. It helps lift everyone's spirits when we're all stressed over exams. I love food too."

"I'm really excited for it. I love to travel and I love history. I've also thought about becoming an Obliviator. I'm not 100% sure which one. I think curse breaker would be the best option but I don't know how I'd feel about it when I get older. Oh, a dragonologist would be amazing. I would love to learn more about dragons. They are so beautiful. An auror would be neat too. Emmett is stuck between curse breaker, hit wizard, and auror. I think he is leaning more towards curse breaker or hit wizard. My dad is trying to convince me to become a healer and he jokes that I can take care of Emmett if he becomes a hit wizard, since it's so dangerous".

[img align=left]http://i.imgur.com/mAWWP8S.png[/img] "Well it seems I made it on time. This party is off the hook!" Gaia's dad was raising his hands "raise the roof! RAISE THE ROOF!" sadly for his well rehearsed intro the song was ending and fading away to give way to the new song. "Ah yes, perfect timing. Which one of you is Eros?" () He took a look around the room waiting for any takers. He spotted familiar faces "Magnus (). Fade (). Long time no see. I have work for you waiting at the farm." He laughed "How are you boys?" He saw Harper () "how are you sweetheart? Nan is asking about you. Apparently she has some recipes to go over with you."

[img align=left]http://i.imgur.com/9amZoj2.png[/img] Gaia rolled her eyes and grinned at the new comer. "Well you are early... and kind of annoying, DAD." She got up and hugged him. "Well everyone this is my dad, Gregory Kavanagh. He is here to crash the party." Gaia smiled her knowing smile and continued "we have another surprise for you all in a little while."

"'Ey Mr. K, ow are you?" Magnus asked with a large grin. "'Ow are all the animals? Work eh? whatcha doin now?"

[img align=left]http://i.imgur.com/mAWWP8S.png[/img] "Standing here... talking to you." He said to Magnus () with a hearty belly laugh. He might have wiped a small tear from his eye. "I am here to help out with some things. Don't mind me. The party just started. How did you do in school? Did Gaia tell you we have some new kittens?"

"Dork," Magnus said laughing. "I meant in your wonderful home. No, she didn't. I'm melting just thinkin' of the kitties. Our new owls are doing really well by the way. I still can't believe mum bought 4 of your lovely owls and you all came round an made a little owlry. Its so cute. They love it. Mum's so much less stressed with getting her posts out. I did alright, except in Astronomy and Divination. I barely passed them."

[img align=left]http://i.imgur.com/iSqG23Q.png[/img] Gregory took off his coat as he talked to Magnus () "Yeh, somehow I figured that would happen... with your classes... almost like I could see it.. in my head." He laughed "Is there anything to drink at this party? You all seem to be quiet and keeping to yourselves. In my time we danced all night and would be so loud we got in trouble a few times."
