Since Bernard returned from visiting Raph, it's been quiet in the Tonks-Wrangle flat. Anthony had a fussy night, and Sunny was grumpy about Bernard's disappearance at bedtime. Nymphadora's tired, which accounts for part of the reason she's quiet; mostly, though, she's waiting for Bernard to talk to her.

That can sometimes take a while.

"Brooding," she says, proudly.

It is a New Word she has heard more than once in the bar.

As far as she can understand, it involves having a scowly sort of face and occassionally looking deeply into your cup as if the universe is to much to deal with.

Bernard chokes on his cider.

"I'll have to get you a copy of Camus and some clove cigarettes." He pops a cookie into his mouth. "You'll have to wait on the vermouth till you're 17 or so, though."

"Sixteen," she bargains, not knowing what vermouth is at all, but if she has to wait for it, she bets it's fun.

"Decided what to be fo' Halloween." Last minute, but it required Serious Thought, and Mummy is magic. Mummy will know exactly how to make her costume.

"No," she says, earnestly.

"Better."

"Nothing better than a princess," Bernard protests with great stupidity.

When 'Dora shoots him a look, he looks like this: :O!

Then: D:

"...Unless it's a witch or Auror or something," he finishes lamely.

"Is," she says, earnestly.

It's so obvious, Ber'd!

Sunny lets them wait...

waaaait...

okay, enough wait.

"Dentures of the Endless."

LOOK HOW BRILLIANT SHE IS! SEE. SEE, MUM AND DAD? SEE WHAT SHE CAN THINK UP? BETTER THAN PRINCESS!

"It's brilliant," she informs them.

A statement, not a question.

"Need a costume."

"No-oooooo," she draws out, frowning.

She met Dream. He had no dream bubbles on his clothing.

Obviously, Dentures should not have teeth on hers, then.

"Not right," she concludes, and looks expectantly at her mum.

Bernard rushes in to save his wife from certain death.

"How about... Okay. How about a kind of... fairy outfit, but rainbow... with a wand... made out of one of those weird mirrors on the long metal stick that dentists use? And tiiiiiny combat boots."

Daddy's not TOO bad at this.

Daddy? Wins.

"With sparkles?" she asks, hopefully.

She thinks Dentures should have sparkles.

"...If it can't have sparkles, wanna be Lilly Kane."

And lo, the pitter patter of teeny tiny feet in combat boots will fill the bar.

"Think I'll look smashing," she beams.

A bright grin breaks across Bernard's face -- she sounds just like her mum.

"Yeah, you will. You'll be the grooviest."

"Always," she declares.




"Lilly next year, then."

Still better than princess.

"Think I need earrings." But this is not an issue, thankfully, til next year.

"Well, they make earrings that don't hurt, you know. For little girls whose ears are unpierced."

He reaches over and pulls on her tiny earlobe gently. "It's a big decision, and it's pretty painful I guess."

Sunny looks unconvinced.

"If it were that bad, people wouldn't have it done."

Sunny underestimates people, maybe.

She beams, a little, and nods. If they're like Mummy's, that's okay.

"Sparkly an' dangly?" When she drops her d's, you KNOW she's excited.
