Surprise Party in Room 1
Jun. 5th, 2007 08:34 pm![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
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.

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.

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."

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