Slartibartfast comes into his classroom/kitchen and sits down a the table.

There is a collection of bottles and glasses in front of him.

Okay, alcohol and its relation to lifestyle... any thoughts?

Paige sticks her head in the room, "excuse me sir? I'm not registered for this class but I heard about topic of discussion, can I join?"

[isnotimportant.livejournal.com]

Ah, come in miss ... Matthews, isn't it? Friend of young Draco? We have some space on this course if you want to sign up, but if not I'm quite happy to have you join in. Do you have some particular insight into the role of alcohol? Or some expertise, perhaps? I've got some here ... for illustrative purposes, you understand.

Paige smiles, "Yes that's me. I think I would like to sign up if that's ok."

She bites her lip, "if I say I experience with alcohol and stuff I'm not gonna get reported am I?"

[the4thsister.livejournal.com]

((stick the word "have" before experience please!))

[isnotimportant.livejournal.com]

Oh, I'm not in the business of reporting people for ... research. Oh, and you'll appreciate that I'm not in the business of providing alcohol for students, but if any of them happen to find research material lying around on a table somewhere then that's hardly a matter for me.

Paige smiles, "I'll bear that in mind, thank you sir!"

Lily looks up from her desk as Paige walks in. She smiles at the newcomer.

Paige smiles, "hey Lily."

"Hi Paige. It's good to see you here." Lily gestures to the empty seat next to her.

Paige sits down next to Lily, "Yeah I was gonna join when the semester started but it got filled up really quickly and well this topic sounded like something I could talk about."

"Did you enjoy hoemcoming?"

[http://users.livejournal.com/___lily_evans_/]

Lily's getting better at controlling her blushing, but it's still there.

"Yeah - you?"

[the4thsister.livejournal.com]

Paige grins, "Yeah I had a great time, I didn't think Geoff, my boyfriend, would be able to make it, but he did. So yeah it was more fun than I was expecting actually."

[http://users.livejournal.com/___lily_evans_/]

"That's great! Geoff seems really nice."

[the4thsister.livejournal.com]

Paige trys not to beam without much luck, "He really is. Do you believe in fate Lily?"

[http://users.livejournal.com/___lily_evans_/]

"Sometimes," Lily says. "Some things just feel right, but then some days I just think I'm being all girly about that sort of thing, you know?"

Draco walks in and after winking at Lily, sits down in the seat in front of her.

Lily smiles at Draco and feels very relieved. She hadn't heard from him since the dance and was starting to worry that she had done something wrong.

[pure-blooddraco.livejournal.com]

Draco turns around in his seat and says something about alcohol loudly before leaning in to whisper to Lily.
"Sorry I've been kind of quiet lately. Elections y'know. At this point it doesn't matter if I get elected or not, I just want this thing to be over with!" he says with a smile

[http://users.livejournal.com/___lily_evans_/]

Lily looks concerned and whispers back, "oh, I know you must be incredibly busy with all of that on top of your studies and everything." Lily smiles again. "There's no turning back now, though - tonight's the night, and then you can relax again!" She pauses, biting her lower lip. "By the way, I really had a wonderful time Friday night..."

My hearing is excellent, Malfoy, and while I don't mind whispering in class, it's disappointing that you think you can fool me so easily. Whisper by all means, but don't kid yourself that I don't know you're doing it.

*He pours himself another glassful, from a different bottle*

[pure-blooddraco.livejournal.com]

Draco gives an "Is he drunk?" look before putting on a humble face.

"I'm sorry sir, won't happen again."

[isnotimportant.livejournal.com]

No problem, just so long as we understand each other. Cheers.

[http://users.livejournal.com/___lily_evans_/]

Lily shrugs, giving Draco a look that implies, "Would you even notice a difference from usual if he is?"

[pure-blooddraco.livejournal.com]

Draco laughs and continues to stare at the Professor. This was has been the most interesting class he's had all day.

[isnotimportant.livejournal.com]

He realises that he's being stared at.

Do you have something to contribute to the discussion, young man? Your friend here has supplied me with this intriguing leaflet, which I shall study at my leisure. I was entertained by your essay ... I can't imagine me being photographed naked with a lampshade on my head. Pass me that bottle.
