The Leaky Cauldron

The Leaky Cauldron is the oldest pub in London and is believed to have been built sometime in the 1500s, along with the rest of Diagon alley. The pub is one of the few connections to Muggle London and Wizarding London. In the muggle world, The Leaky Cauldron is found in Charing Cross Road and to the muggle eye, it is a small, broken-down old shop front. Once, before the statute of secrecy, muggles were welcomed into the pub with open arms, though this changed under Ulick Gamp, the Minister of Magic at the time. To allow its survival, he ensured that the shop was placed under heavy spells and protection. In the Wizarding world, the Leaky Cauldron has an entrance to both Diagon alley and Knockturn Alley found in the establishment's backyard.

However, under Alistair Fitzgerald, the foot traffic between the two worlds have been minimised with the establishment under constant threats to close their door to the muggle world shut permanently. However, though there is a sign reminding the people of the current laws, it still remains open. It is not the first time this establishment has suffered under fascist governments, and no doubt not the last.

Currently, it's owned by Phoebe. Someone whose family was well known to be against muggles and anything related but she herself as become more open minded as the years passed by. Thus, she is known to turn a blind eye if you pass into Muggle London. Under Phoebe, the pub hasn't changed much but she has renovated the bedrooms to be more accommodating to those that stay there. The pub itself, though, is still rather grungey but is still the best place to go for any interesting gossip.

Hearing from Riv that Margot's back in the country, Richard's wasted no time in texting her himself and arranging to meet up after work. It's been too long since he's been in contact with most of his old friends, and this marks the rekindling of his relationship with all of them. He's unable to keep the smile off his face as he waits in a booth for Margot to arrive, beer already in front of him.

Margot arrives promptly, ordering herself a beer before joining Dick at his table. "This place is grimy and the beer tastes like piss. What happened to your princely tastes?" Margot teases, grinning crookedly at her old friend.

"Haven't you heard? I'm blending in with the common folk now," he answers, grinning back up at her and taking a moment to process the fact that all his friends are back. "Looking beautiful as always, I see," he says. "How have you been?"

Seated at one of the tables in the pub, Vince overheard drifts of little conversation from others, but it was quieter in comparison to when the sun set and people arrived for an after work drink. The time wasn't far off from that, but sunlight still poured in through the few windows. Only a full glass of water rested atop Vince's table, and he himself was too lost in thought to remember drinking it. His right leg tapped under the table. It was a nervous tic he developed a long time ago and couldn't seem to shake off (pun unintended). He had been staying at The Leaky Cauldron for those first couple days back—courtesy of his cousin's help—and it seemed the best meeting spot at this hour. So he waited for Julian, having sent an owl yesterday, but a large part of Vince considered the idea of the old time friend choosing to not show up at all. It was ten years after all.

Julian almost didn't turn up. A part of Julian felt that Vince might resent him. It was Julian who walked free whilst Vince lay in Azkaban alone. Save for maybe one of the serial killers to keep him company. Still, he turned up to the pub dressed in bright pink silk pants and a white shirt decorated with pink flowers. Enough to draw some attention from those around him. It didn't take long to find Vince in the crowd and he headed over there with a smile. "Flint, you look as handsome as ever," he said, flirting innocently like he always did with most people, unsure of their dynamic yet.

Vince noticed Julian first; mainly from his own eyes that kept staring at the pub's entrance every two seconds, but also because Julian had always been someone who stood out in a crowd—at least in Vince's opinion. He stayed silent until Julian first spoke, staying cool on the outside despite all the nerves he felt dancing around within him. "Julian Ritchard," Vince spoke after, feeling as if both the first and surname was necessary. After so long, finally speaking it was much different than thinking the name. He forgot the way it sounded. "Thank you. You don't look too bad yourself." Their dynamic was unknown to Vince as well. He for sure didn't hate Julian. Maybe there was feelings of resentment for a period of time, but those were left back in Azkaban.

"Why, thank you, I do think this shirt brings out the blue in my eyes," Julian declared. His eyes were green, mind you. "So, how have you been?" He asked as he slid into the chair opposite Vince. "If I knew you'd been let out, I would have been the one to reach out first. I was so happy to see your letter." The waitress wandered over and he simply asked for a glass of gin and tonic. Nothing too fancy.

"Ah, I can tell now that you've pointed it out." No, Vince couldn't actually, but not all kind comments had to be truthful. His eyes followed Julian as he sat down, but then dropped when taking a sip of his water. He considered ordering a stronger drink as well, but put away the thought. Water was good right now. "No worries. I've only been back for a few days, and I messaged you fairly quickly. I'm happy that you decided to come."

"I wouldn't have missed my opportunity," Julian responded. I'm happy you decided to come. Julian kind of came to the conclusion that was rather ominous as if he was saying I'm happy you decided to come so I can poison you! Julian supposed Vince would have picked up some tips from azkaban. "It's been so long, I'm glad you've finally been freed. Not that you should have been in the first place."

No, Vince had not picked up any tips on the art of poisoning, but he had heard the tales of a serial killer known for using her doctor instruments on her victims. Vince wasn't a killer, never had been one, but he certainly wouldn't use syringes or needles to do the job. "Thank, you. I am too." Vince's smiling expression dropped, showing the more serious side of him. It wasn't Julian's fault, and he didn't blame his friend (?), but Azkaban still remained to be a sore subject. It stuck with him like a stone lodged into his stomach, and Not that you should have been in the first place made the stone feel heavier and more existent. "We'll have seized the day if anyone else tried to realize that."

Julian could feel the mood drop instantly. Whilst he might not be much of a fighter he did have his uses-his observation skills was one of them. He knew how to read people, especially Vince, even thought they haven't seen each other in nearly a decade. Suppose Vince never had much opportunity to grow locked away and so all the same ticks that he had before was still there for Julian to recognise. "I would have been right there with you, too. But still, let us drink together like we use to." With that, the waitress slid their drinks in front of them. "Just water? Come on, mate, next round's on me."

Toni was, of course, too young to drink but he was there anyway. He was there writing in a little notebook. Benji was meant to be meeting him but he was late, apparently, so Toni was stuck with his own thoughts. So naturally, he was writing. A pub like this, so lively and chaotic, was the perfect place. History's best ideas began in communes like this. Sitting at a high table, perched on a stool, he was scribbling away, waiting for true inspiration to hit him. In the meantime, he would make do with half coherent thoughts that he strung together.

Among the people who had already been inside was Luciano, sitting at one of the tables with a book lying in front of him. It was something about potions but, his head wasn't in the right state of mind to retain most of the information. A light-hearted sigh escaped his lips probably only audible to himself before he glance up and around the room. His brown eye observed the people around him and their faces, being somewhat of a people watcher when he need to center his mind though, he was careful not to stare for too long to not catch anyone's attention. Briefly, Toni did draw his attention more than anyone else in the room however Luc didn't have any intention of interrupt the guys writing.

Toni had to keep an eye out on the world around him. Inspiration will never find him if he kept to himself. He had to stretch outwards to find beauty. It will never find him. So he noticed the boy trying to study (the emphasis was on trying-Toni wasn't a fool to think this session was going well) and his own spying. Letting his eyes raise upwards to rest on the guy, he wasn't ashamed enough to try and hide his own staring, very much prepared to wink if they made eye contact.

He didn’t mean to stare. Really he didn’t but, Luc found his gaze stuck on Toni for longer than he had planned. Before he knew it, it was too late and the two had made eye contact causing Luciano to mentally curse. This unsettled the young male, his body moving quickly to try and seem natural but, it only resorted in Luc knocking over his drink and spilling it over the table. “Shi...” He mumble under his breathe as he quickly went to rescue his book from the liquid, hoping he hadn’t made a complete fool of himself.

Toni watched the boy make a complete mess with both amusement and surprise, his smirk slowly melting off and surely his eyes were deceiving him. After a moment, he stood up and walked over. "Here, let me help you," he said, bringing out his wand, casting the spilt liquid back into the glass. "Tragic when a book is destroyed. So full of power. Did you get any on yourself?"

Why didn't i think to do that... Luciano thought to himself as he watched Toni cast his spell and instantly clean up the mess. "I didn't thankfully but..." He raised his book up by the corner and watched as a few droplets of water fell to the floor. "My book wasn't so lucky." Honestly, the whole situation was humors to the young wizard, how he made such a fool out of himself but, he was sure to hold back any laughter. "Thank you for helping me with the spill, don't suppose you know a spell for drying a book. If not i guess i'll have to make do with a hair dryer."

"I'm afraid the damage might already be done, nothing too special I hope?" Toni asked, leaning against Luc's table. He hasn't been invited to sit and he didn't want to assume he could and invade the boy's space. "Also, I'm afraid my skills might lie more with the pen rather than the wand. To my parent's chagrin, of course."

“No, nothing too special. I was just studying up on potions really... the book isn’t mine though so let’s hope the owner doesn’t chew me out.” It was a bit out of character for Luc but, seeing as they were already engaged in conversation he thought, why not. “Your welcome to sit if your not waiting for anyone, I wouldn’t mind the company.” He offered, gazing at the boy through his lashes.

"Alas, that is one of the more less fascinating classes that Hogwarts has too offer," Toni said with a small nod of his head, before smiling, "I'm not! And I too, I'm finding company something to be desired as of this moment. Too busy with my own thoughts. Ah, correct me, I've assumed you go to Hogwarts. Am I wrong?" With that, Toni slid into the empty seat, watching Luc curiously.

He’s an interesting one... Luc thought to himself, whether that was bad or not-he hadn’t decided quite yet. “Yes, I am from Hogwarts. I belong to house Slytherin, I believe I’ve seen you in the halls a few times... you usually have a blonde at your side though.” Luciano answered him, it wasn’t unnatural for him to be familiar with most people. When you don’t talk very much, you tend to remember faces easier but, putting names to the faces was a different story.

"Alas, I'm Hufflepuff," Toni said with a small smile, "unfortunately-I cannot say the same for you. My loss. I wish I did notice you before now. I'm Toni," he said holding out his hand to be shaken, "Toni D'Aurevilly. Let us hope I run into you more now that I've met you. It always seems to be that way, no?"

Luc was cautious, shifting in his seat so he could extend a hand out to Toni. Luc's grip was firm as well as the shake before he allowed his hand to fall back onto his thigh. "No worries, it's not surprising when people don't recognize me... i like to stay in the background." Luciano admitted.

Toni was impressed-he felt that he could tell a lot from a man's shake. How much they cared, how interested they were, and what have you. "It is a shame. Someone as beautiful as you doesn't deserve to stay in the shadows like that."

Luciano made a face out of discomfort, he wasn't used to this kind of attention and he wasn't one hundred percent sure if he like or not. Maybe if it were coming from someone else he wouldn't minded it much but, he'd heard of some small details of Toni and his wealthy background so Luc was already somewhat set off by him. However, Toni had been charming enough so far for Luc to not mind his company. "Not sure i'd consider myself beautiful exactly."
