105.

[ video | audio ]

[Viewers are treated to this video from years ago when they come across Ginny's entry today. It's shaking and loud and ridiculous, one might be able to make out twin men with the trademark Weasley hair and a younger wizard with glasses and Ginny herself. It's hard, though, with the flashing fireworks in the pre-dawn light, her hexes, the confetti streaming through the air. But it isn't impossible.

When the video ends in laughter, it cuts out to be replaced with a softer kind.]

Idiots.

[But it's fondly said. There's a pause as she processes things, marvels at how that was two years ago, how different things have become. How much she's grown and yet, not.]

As if fireworks could've make up for three years. But—I don't know, since today marks five, I suppose I wouldn't actually mind. If it meant they were still here, anyway.

[There's another pause as if she might say more then decides against it, ending the feed.]



[ooc; 5 YEARS TO THE DAY! Happy anniversary, my favourite ginger witch. And thank you for being awesome always, polycakes.]

I'm buying you a drink.

[ Is it too early for drinks? Who knows? ] You pick the bar, the time, I'll bring the wallet.

Barnes.

[Does it look like she's been crying? No. Hell no. She takes a breath, smooths back her hair, flashes the most brilliant smile—back at Hogwarts, it would have laid boys helpless at her feet. They really are very alike.]

I should've known you'd try to chat me up first thing in the morning.

Five years is a long time.

[ said with the air of someone who knows what that expanse of time is like, what five years away from home with little to no hope of ever seeing it again can do to a person. ]

[hexuality]

I'd say it passes quickly, but that isn't always true.

[thenormalsquint]

I don't remember if we ever had an agreement to not celebrate another year in this hellhole.

[She laughs because as terrible as it is, it's become home again.]

[hexuality]

I think I'm well past celebrating or moping about it.

[LIES. Well, she's having a drink with Bucky, that's good enough for her.]

It's just another day, isn't it? Suppose that isn't true since I've gone and made a spectacle out of it, but I can blame my brothers two years too late on that one.

[trenchknives]

Hey, Ginny, just wanted to say happy...

[There's the sound of a loud clatter somewhere, and then he's looking over his shoulder.]

Nucky?! You little shit, get back here or I'll...

[And then he turns back to the camera.]

Hey. Kid. Happy anniversary. Sorry, my dog's bein' an asshole again.

Video

[hexuality]

Thanks.

[She starts laughing because what else can she do with that response?]

Nucky. [Soft, singsong.] Nucky, hey, you giving Jimmy a hard time again?

[excelsiors]

They look like you.

Your brothers, I mean.

[hexuality]

I should hope so. We are related, after all.

Or do you mean the psychotic grins?

[had_not_lived]

They did make impressive fireworks.

[hexuality]

George came by during the visitor's weekend. I told him I did a fireworks display and he said he was proud of me, so... I'm probably doing something right.

[candothat]

I'm sorry that they have come and gone, and that many other friends have come and gone, as well.

[hexuality]

It's alright, Pavel. You're still here, aren't you?

[logistical]

Would you like some tea, Ginny?

audio;

[hexuality]

I would love some. Later this afternoon? I'm doing lunch with a friend.

[fingersnapping]

Five years?

[ Worst fact ever. ]

video;

[hexuality]

[Oops.]

Er, yeah, just about. It's not normal.

video;

[chakotay]

Five years, huh?

[ he'll comment on the other later okay. for now, he's focusing on the number, because that's the number of years voyager's been stuck in the delta quadrant. funny that they're so parallel. ]

video;

[hexuality]

To the day, yeah.

When I first arrived, I had classmates and a brother already waiting for me. Funny how things work out.

[ since bones is busy at work, ginny is just going to have to deal with a big box of sweets - chocolates, mostly - delivered to her by a cute little errand boy who's only too happy to do the bidding of the scary doctor who's not so scary after all when he smiles :) ]

Can I assume these came with a hug? Because I gave the kid a hug and got one back. — G

[olduvai]

I guess someone already offered you a drink.

[ would've been his solution to anything. ]

[hexuality]

I'm not entirely sure what about me suggests I could handle a lot of alcohol, but I'm sure it isn't my height.

[GONNA DRINK FOR LUUUUUNCH. It wasn't her idea.]

( text )

[abscind]

So, what makes up for five, then? Since fireworks didn't cut it for three.

( text )

[hexuality]

Apparently the solution is to get me pissed before tea time. But I'll settle for a real conversation with you one day.

video; im late im late for this v v v v important date

[brobeforehos]

Put on your dancing shoes, Weasley.

I'm sure they have fireworks at some store somewhere, but first - first we let our hair down a little.

video; never late ON TIME

[hexuality]

[She starts laughing, running a hand through her already down and mussed hair.]

Too late for that, Crawford. Look at this mess.
