▲ He was looking for her? That was a funny way of sending the lady that she didn’t know into the crowd to find her. “Who was that anyways? Does mum know you have multiple girlfriends?” Lily teased as her arms were forcibly removed from around her brother’s waist. The enticement of pizza pulled her around into the tiny group, and she snagged the menu and started reading all the wild names. They were great! “This makes so much sense now! I saw Jimmie face-palming about something the other day. I bet she saw one of these menus!” She didn’t exactly understand the relationship that her roommate had with her father, but Lily really enjoyed hearing funny stories about Mr. Blishwick. Sometimes Lulu had them too. The whole family was so fascinating, and she always wanted to know more about them, because why not? “What’s up Z-Man!” Lily yelled, holding her fist out for a bump with Zeke. “We had classes together last year. Before my big old, no good, screw up. Right?” It was easier to joke about it now that there was an actual end in sight. In the fall she was still worried that she would mess it all up again, but with the way things were currently progressing, it looked like she was actually going to graduate this year. And not by the skin of her teeth either. @tag ● ### ● Song by Artist MADE BY VEL OF GS + ADOX 2.0

Good times never seemed so good I've been inclined, To believe they never would April 18, 2026 James’ brow furrowed. If it was reliant on the internet then how could one use it when one was not connected? Maybe he would bother Harper at work as well, she had a pretty good understanding of how all these things worked and she was the IT of the family now. But now they were sidetracked as Lily seemed to thrive in the energy of the room and all the commotion. His face went from his usual relaxed expression to a slightly more awkward one. ”No--I mean, I only have one girlfriend.” As much as he had flirted and chatted with girls in all his years at school and when he was single overall, he wasn’t that type of guy. And he didn’t need his mother’s glare to keep him in check in how he behaved as a boyfriend to Ariadne.
”That was Finn, she works with us.” James explained quickly. Sometimes he forgot that Blishwicks were in attendance at Hogwarts, it was probably the age gap. Though he remembered Jimmie from Quidditch, that was so long ago now. Clearly LIly knew Zeke, so at least it saved him from the introduction. ”I’m getting the same pizza Zeke got, Sweet Caroline. Choose something Lils and i’ll go wait in line.” That way they could chat and catch up while he ordered and paid and then they could see who could inhale their pizza the fastest.

April 18, 2026 "Z-Man" wasn't something that Zeke was used to hearing used in place of his name, especially not when it was overwhelmingly common for people to use their last names with one another at the Ministry and in his Interpol training. Still, because it was Lily, he let it slide, though he didn't expect her to bring up her having been held back. He wasn't sure if the humor that she was using was a coping mechanism or if she just happened to find it incredibly amusing. Either way, even she would have known that he was probably more studious than he had really needed to be in his last year of school, but it had worked out.
James and Lily went on about James's having multiple girlfriends for a minute there—not that he actually did, as James countered his sister, because Finn Nottingham wasn't his girlfriend. Zeke didn't know if Lily would be inclined to believe that, but James also seemed to have come to a decision about the pizza and mentioned that he was going to have the Sweet Caroline.
"Have you been here before, Lily?" Zeke wondered. He didn't know too many of the younger students, apart from the ones who had been at Ilvermorny before Hogwarts, but it really seemed like the pizza parlor was the latest hangout.

▲ “Uh-huh. Whatever you say Romeo,” Lily rolled her eyes at her brother dramatically. She didn’t actually know, and the Finn lady definitely seemed cool with all of her tattoos and dyed hair. If they bumped into each other again, Lily made a mental note to ask her where she got all of them done. There was a tattoo parlor in Diagon, but she had never been allowed inside. Because needles and people were trying to be careful and accurate with their art. She could respect that. James was pushing her to hurry up and pick a pizza, so she stuck her nose literally into the menu as she read it over again. “Okay, okay. You’re sounding like mum…” Eyes widening at that, she looked up at her brother. “She isn’t here, right?” Things hadn’t been exactly weird between them lately, but it felt like having her teach at Hogwarts was a way to keep an eye on everything Lily did. She disliked it. Especially when she was on her best behavior this year. “How about ‘Jimbo’s Girl’! That way I can tell Jimmie I ate her later.” She’d probably wait for her roommate to almost drift off to sleep or get invested with one of her newspaper articles, and then bug her about it incessantly. It was the perfect plan. “A few times! I think you already know the pizza is awesome though,” Lily answered Zeke. That seemed to be the general consensus about the place. The buzz at school had been insane all week, and just getting signed up had been a challenge. @tag ● ### ● Song by Artist MADE BY VEL OF GS + ADOX 2.0

Good times never seemed so good I've been inclined, To believe they never would April 18, 2026 Now that James was sufficiently distracted from figuring out how his small phone was supposed to play music, he kept up the defense that he only had a single girlfriend. Not that Finn wasn’t easy to get along with, but he was happy in his relationship. But Lily persisted. James rolled his eyes, clearly she didn’t believe him ”What? Am I not allowed to have friends that are girls now?” it was possible, he told himself. Even if said girl was incredibly pretty, but he’d never been that type of guy--plus he’d seen too many of them during his school years which girls on the side, he never liked that.
Zeke asked if Lily had been here before, there was a chance since it had been open long enough to perhaps overlap with a previous Hogsmeade weekend, but James didn’t know. When she asked about their mother, James also froze up a tiny bit and his eyes darted around. He’d get an earful if she was here and he didn’t find her and say hello, but so far he didn’t spot her red hair. ”Erm--not that I saw.” James looked over the crowd once more but didn’t spot her. Finally Lily began to look at the menu and he almost choked on his own spit when she spoke next, he chuckled. ”Yes, do that and let me know what she says.” James knew better than to try and talk her out of anything, plus she’d do it with more fervor if he tried to warn her off. ”Alright, I’ll go place the order. I’ll be back.” And with that he went to go stand in line.

Just a rhyme without a reason Never-ending maze, drift on numbered days April 18, 2026 Rhys let out a heavy sigh. This place was crowded but he’d agreed to spend time with his sisters since Max was able to get down to the village. It was their second time at this pizza parlor and since that last very interesting conversation. Hopefully, this time would be less stressful but he couldn’t see how with this crowd and all these teenagers. It wasn’t that Rhys didn’t like kids, he was actually very patient with children. He supposed his time at the orphanage was to blame for that, there were kids of all ages up to the age of seventeen. It would be helpful since he had one on the way and due in less than three months. The idea made his stomach turn but in a very nervous sort of way.
Pushing through what looked like some third years, he kept his face stoic in case they protested and he tried to look for either Max or Dahlia. Instead, as he walked he almost ran into someone but paused when he looked down. ”Sorry I--oh, hi Lily.” How he had missed that familiar red hair was beyond him but they were next to a very loud commotion. However, he also paused when he saw who was in the middle of that commotion--Sarah. Quickly he turned to face Lily and so his back was to the table, that was one person he was not keen on seeing or speaking to anytime for the rest of however long he lived. It had been years, now that he thought about it since they’d last spoken at all. ”I’m looking for Max, have you seen her? She didn’t tell me something was going on today.” Whatever this was.

April 18, 2026 Zeke wasn't sure how to react to Lily's dirty joke about the Jimbo's Girl pizza and the man's daughter. It wasn't because he was a prude or anything; he was pansexual himself, but he hadn't expected that in a conversation about pizza. Then again, he was in conversation with Lily Potter, and he knew that he probably shouldn't have been surprised. Lily had also been to the pizza parlor before, so she wasn't a stranger to it, either.
As James offered to get into the queue to hold his and his sister's place, Zeke was prepared to turn and leave when another young man approached him and Lily. He almost ran into Lily, in fact, but recognized her and asked if she had seen a "Max". The name sounded familiar to Zeke, only because he had been intrigued by the fact that Max was a girl the first time that her name had come up in conversation at Hogwarts. He didn't know her appearance well enough to pick her out from the crowd, but he figured that he would take that as his opportunity to leave with his pizza before it got too much colder.
"Listen, it was nice seein' you, Lily, but I should probably go," he noted, nodding slightly to the young man who was in search of Max.

April 18, 2026 Max wasn't one to rope anyone into elaborate schemes. The pizza-making event at the pizza parlor had been her idea, but only because she hadn't realized that it would be so ridiculously popular. Half of the school and no shortage of other people were there, and there seemed to be little to no organization or forethought into how to ensure that people weren't practically tripping over each other's heels. Once she had entered the place, she had found herself a far corner table with about as good a view of the entrance as she could hope for amidst the chaos, hoping to catch sight of Rhys and Dahlia so that the taste of pizza wasn't forever soured in their minds after their last conversation there.
Her vantage point became limited as more and more people somehow pushed their way into the shop, but she caught a glimpse of someone who she was sure was Rhys, at least. The key question: How was she supposed to flag him down without losing her table over the noise? Fortunately or unfortunately, the table soon became a moot point, as a mother with her small children approached and gave her a disapproving look for having taken up a table in the first place. That caused her to relinquish it, but at least it freed her up to go find Rhys.
She had to make her way through the crowd again then, trying not to step on anyone's feet as she went, but it was made easier when she realized that Rhys had found his way to Lily Potter. "Rhys!" Max called, hoping that he would hear her. "Lily!"

▲ Ragging on her brothers was a favorite pastime of hers, and she really didn't care how many girls James had. The more the merrier, really. Just proved that he was popular! ”Roger that Captain! I’ll let you have some too, that way you'll know when I report back” Jimmie was blind to groan at the mention of the pizza named after her, but Lily thought it was hilarious, and also kind of cute that Mr. Blishwick cared that much about her. Obviously it was special. She nodded her head as James said he'd wait in line to order, and Lily sort of assumed she'd have a longer conversation with Zeke. Unfortunately it looked like he had to be on his way too, and she said goodbye as it looked like he wanted to finally escape with his pizza. She couldn't blame him, seeing how good it was. While Zeke made his exit, another person almost ran into her. The longer she was here, the more people there were! “Rhys’s Pieces! What's up my brother from...uhhh yeah what's up!” she yelled over the growing noise of the restaurant. He was looking for Max, but Lily hadn't seen her. “I juuuust got here, so I haven't seen her yet.” Of course that was basically the signal for the youngest Greyback to arrive, as Lily heard her name called. “I hear her! I think!” she looked at Rhys. The only problem was that she couldn't see Max. That was going to take a little longer. @tag ● ### ● Song by Artist MADE BY VEL OF GS + ADOX 2.0

Just a rhyme without a reason Never-ending maze drift on numbered days April 18, 2026 The other man that Rhys didn’t know nodded to him and he nodded back as he made his exit. Maybe a friend of Lily’s, or that was his assumption. It was loud, but Lily in any normal scenario was just as loud, if not louder. It had been an adjustment for Rhys to befriend someone with this much energy. Even Vasilia, with all her extrovertedness, was not as loud. Very quickly he raised an eyebrow and almost rolled his eyes at the nickname she gave him. But, he’d let it slide unless someone else decided to try it. Perhaps it was just the privilege of being an unofficial Greyback because of Adrian at this point.
”Where?” Rhys thought he’d heard his name and he looked around for a moment before finally spotting her. Lily had heard her first. Maybe all that Cursebreaking was beginning to affect his hearing. But one didn’t stand too close to jinxed ancient walls that decided to explode when flying spear hit it and expect their hearing to be perfect. Rhys waved at his younger sister, motioning for her to join them. ”You’re welcome to join us Lily, we’re just waiting on Dahlia.” Now that he thought about it, had Lily and Dahlia formally met? Adrian running off to some unknown corner of the world had thrown a wrench in some things.

April 18, 2026 It took a moment for her to catch Lily's and Rhys's attention, though that wasn't entirely unexpected. By the time that it was apparent to her that Rhys had heard her and seen her, she was fairly close to them, and Rhys motioned in her direction. Max managed to squeeze her way past a few more people and was glad to know that the spot that Rhys and Lily were in wasn't all that crowded, really. They could at least stand where they were and maintain a decent view of who was coming in and out.
Speaking of that, Max still hadn't seen Dahlia, but perhaps the two of them had. "Erm, is Dahlia coming still, do you know?" Max asked Rhys, glancing around again to see if she had missed her. She then looked to Lily, not sure if she actually knew who Dahlia was. "Another sister," she mentioned briefly, only to check for Dahlia again. "Egyptian, slightly shorter than I am…"

▲ Max made it to them before Lily could rally the elder Greyback in the direction she had heard their names coming from. Apparently she was really easy to spot today! It wasn’t like she was doing anything different, but first the Finn lady found her, and now Max. That probably meant there weren’t any cousins lurking about, since that always muddied things up in crowds. The more Weasleys, the better, but also trying to find the one you were looking for became complicated. She had heard her Uncle George say it was like walking into an American college sorority, whatever that meant. Maybe they were all redheads there too? As Max approached through the crowd, Rhys explained that they were looking for Dahlia. She hadn’t the foggiest who that could be, and was about to ask if that was a girlfriend of his (because literally everyone was dropping names today without any explanations!), when Max interjected that it was another sister of theirs. “You found another one! Woah when did that happen?” She didn’t recall Jamie or Adrian ever mentioning Dahlia before, but that didn’t really mean anything. The odds of them saying something to her and it going in one ear and out the other was absolutely possible. Especially if it was sometime in the last year. “I think I can hang for a bit. Help you look for her. At least until James gets my pizza,” Lily explained. She wasn’t sure if either of them had seen her brother, but standing on her tippy-toes she could kind of see the back of his head from where she was. He had barely moved. “He’s bringing me Jimbo’s Girl. Then I’m supposed to report back on how Jimmie reacts to me eating her pizza.”@tag ● ### ● Song by Artist MADE BY VEL OF GS + ADOX 2.0

Just a rhyme without a reason Never-ending maze drift on numbered days April 18, 2026 Somehow Max managed to make it to them in once piece, considering the crowd and the likelihood that someone might end up trampled today and as flat as one of the pizzas they were serving. That wouldn’t be good publicity for Blishwick. Aside from this pizza place, Rhys hadn’t had any interaction with Blishwick or even his family members, though Max had mentioned them in passing as they were classmates. Rhys blinked at Lily, he couldn’t recall if he had mentioned it to her or perhaps one of his other siblings might have. Or it was entirely possible that nobody had brought it up. ”Um--couple years back. Hag’s fever kept her in France.” It felt like it had been much longer, but she was also almost done with her training now. ”She should be, she hadn’t messaged me saying otherwise.” Rhys responded to Max’s question, Dahlia was probably just late.
Now, would they get along? Maybe. Lily was a lot of energy at once but Rhys just felt as though he had another younger sister. All his siblings had different personalities though many could be the same in a few ways. He and Dahlia probably drank too much for their own good, but he didn’t think of it like that. But he’d had quite the time finding Max in this crowd, let alone his other sister. Rhys was the tall one, so maybe she would spot him.
Lily was here with her brother who James was acquainted with because of Order business, but he wouldn’t bring that up. Naturally, his eyes began to scan the room for the sight of Potter but Rhys was distracted by Lily’s next statement. ‘Jimbo’ was a reference to Blishwick, but he had no idea who Jimmie was. ”What?” Rhys asked simply but confused as he hadn’t known where to start in terms of questions. ”Max, you didn’t tell me half your school would be here.”

April 18, 2026 Max didn't want to know what Lily was going on about when it came to "Jimbo's Girl", forgetting that that was also—luckily, perhaps—the name of a pizza on the menu at the parlor. Still, she assumed that Lily was well aware of the innuendos that she was making. (It was Lily, she thought; she must have been!) Besides, she wasn't sure that she had the kind of tact to ask Lily about eating Jimmie's "pizza". If the Gryffindor girls' dormitory were really that wild, Merlin…
On a more positive note, Lily didn't mind helping them look for Dahlia. That was good, since Rhys had mentioned that Dahlia was still supposed to be there. It was probably a little bit weird for people who weren't them to try to keep up with how many half-siblings they had, but that was one thing that Max could explain with a straight face.
Rhys commented that she hadn't mentioned that half the school would be there, though, and Max shrugged. "I… didn't realize," she admitted. She had seen the sign-up sheets and had issued the occasional reminder to people about it, but it hadn't seemed like that many people at the time. Had they all decided to go for pizza at the last minute?

▲ Being sequestered away from the rest of the fam in France didn’t seem all that bad! It beat having to do stupid lockdowns and being constantly vigilent about the sickness. “So does she work between here and France? That’s pretty neat,” Lily mused. She was pretty sure her parents had taken them all there once for an international Quidditch match, but that was so long ago. Like, a whole four years or something. Her brain only allowed for instantaneous endorphin release, and the rest was shot off into the darkness of her mind. Sometimes never to be seen again. That was exactly why she was repeating her seventh year. Rhys and Max were discussing the amount of people at the pizza joint while Lily continued to scan the crowd for a short Egyptian girl. She didn’t know what that meant exactly, but she assumed that she had to look sort of similar to the other present Greybacks. At some point during her eye scans, Rhys asked what she meant about the pizza. “Well, it’s called Jimbo’s Girl, right? And Jimbo’s daughter is Jimmie. She’s one of my roommates. So later tonight, when we’re in bed, I’m going to tell her all about how I ate-” On her third explanation of the pizza she wanted, she finally realized what it was she had been saying, a cackle of laughter bubbling from within her tiny frame. This was hilarious! “Yeah. I’m going to eat her pizza.” Lily doubled down. @tag ● ### ● Song by Artist MADE BY VEL OF GS + ADOX 2.0
