Mari looked at her reflection in the mirror as she fixed the dress. It was pretty, but she needed a sash to hold around her elbows or short jacket or something...and a guy on her elbow. She sighed and stepped out to show Lillian.

Lillian smiled and stood up from the floor, "We need something so the dress doesn't look incomplete, a neklace maybe?" she asked smiling and walked over to her jewelwery draw Lillian bent down and took out a locket, "This would look nice don't you think?" It was the one that her dad had givven her on her 16th birthday

"Y....yeah..." she said, choosing her words carefully, "If you want...but I'd be careful about telling Dad...you know how he is around these subject matters."

Mari nodded. "True...but, I mean, don't, like, not tell him..I just said be careful about it. Maybe Rick'd be able to help you...he's used to tiptoeing things to his parents."

Mari gave her an 'oh-come-on' look. "Lillian, you're the daughter of Harry Potter and Kate Austen. Two of the most infamous Aurors in the department - and you think that there's someone with more nerve than <i>you</i>?"
