Moon and Miniver have been working hard since Mia had taken Draco out on their date.

Decorations (in the colours Miniver had suggested instead of Moon's rainbow idea) are hung in the room. Crepe paper braids of orange, greyish blue, and green streak the ceiling. Moon's put up little paper decorations of cakes, balloons, and cartoonish animals dancing. Along with the cardboard balloons, there are huge groups of orange, grey-blue, and green helium balloons scattered all over.

On a table, with a colourful tablecloth depicting very happy cats and dogs partying, is the cake Skill had artfully created for Draco. It's wide sheet cake; the white icing is the basis for the artistically piped images of Martin and Dart flying over a huge forest full of winding paths. The forest ended where the words 'Happy Birthday, Draco!' were written in flowing script. It was the sort of cake a tarot card would make.

Moon giggles as she sets a stack of gifts (all from her family for the birthday boy) on the table beside the cake. She turns to Miniver and grins.

"I hope he's surprised," she says proudly.

It was definitely bright and cheerful and there's glitter everywhere, including on Miniver and Moon.

"Thank you, Tom. Again." Hey, Draco likes multiple presents. If people want to give him more, well he deserves it, right? Or at least, he won't complain. For once.

"I hope you'll like it."

It's a slim parcel. When Draco opens it, he'll find the latest issue of Transfiguration Today. A page is marked with a silver filigree bookmark. When Draco turns to that page, he'll see an article entitled "Theoretical Transfiguration and in Doorway and Opening Charmwork" credited to one Thomas Riddle and one Daniel Mallory.

"I can't use our real names, of course, but you did quite a lot of research for me on this particular article, and I thought you deserved the credit."

For one article anyway. It is Draco's birthday present after all.

Draco blinked at that, and skimmed over the page. A published writer.

He quietly replied, "Cheers... Tom." He likes it, and is rather stunned for a moment.

He grins.

"So how is this birthday treating you? You and Mia seem to be quite smitten with each other."

Draco started to speak, and then cleared his throat.

He started again by replying with, "Well, we were out on a date to her world. Wanted to me to see what it's like, and showed me this place she had found. Not bad for a place to start, though rather small. But it's clean and available. If it works out, I might move some things from the Manor if I can there."

"You know my thoughts on the matter. I forget I was a part of the Wizarding world at times. I'm pleased your visit went well."

He glances in her direction.

"She's a fine lady, your Mia."

Draco turned to look, and his expression softened at the sight of her, bits of starlight glitter still twinkling in the dark curly strands, "She is. Though, she's not exactly mine yet. She just decided that she wants to have a chance to know me better, since she knew the other lad for much longer. I'm still hoping though."

He added, "I er, half proposed to her yesterday. Joking around, but it kind of came out. Tried to brush it off. She said she wasn't ready to say yes, but admitted that to say no would be a lie."

"Please tell me you were drinking at the time," he deadpans.

He told Door he loved her for the first time in much the same way.

Draco gave a small chuckle, and shook his head. "We were playing around, and it slipped out." Well, more like fooling around... A little. >.>

He claps Draco on the back.

"Words like that tend to do so. I'm very happy for you."

The small smile remained as he replied, "Cheers, Tom."

He added, "I know neither of us is ready for some time for anything like that. Nice to consider though."

"I'm glad to hear it. Enjoy your life, Draco. You've only got the one. And enjoy your party; it would seem you've got some dancing to do."
