The owl from Rhy Greyback took her from surprise. It had been a long time since they had hung out together. Let alone, have a few drinks together. So, to receive an owl requesting that they meet up to "hang out" was...off the wall random. Sure, they had always been friends, and got a little touchy feely when he wasn't in a relationship, especially when they had both been drinking. To which, Tove never disobliged, she had a thing for good looking men, especially the bad boys that didn't like to have strings attached. So, she had sent an owl back stating to meet at their usual spot. A small muggle bar in London that not too many people knew about. Where Tove could just be Tove, and Rhys could just be Rhys. That was the beauty of their relationship, they never had any expectations of one another. She never expected anything of him, never wanted him to change who he was or what he represented. She allowed him to just be himself, and Rhys had always been the same to her. Perhaps that was why she never wanted to pursue anything more than a friends with benefits relationship. The benefits always was optional, she didn't really need to screw around with him, but it was fun when they did. She respected Rhys in many ways, that being he was fiercely loyal when he was in a relationship, so she never pushed him to hang out. She figured if and when he was ready to hang out, even just to shoot the shit, that he would send an owl when he was ready. Then they would pick up where they left off friendship wise. Tove threw on a cream sweater, some of her mid drift was showing, and the back was crossed over. Her dark brown pants were fit snug, with a large bow on the front as a belt, and a pair of heeled cream boots and cream and brown boot socks to match the look. Her auburn hair was pulled back into a bun, but her diamond earrings glittered against the light from her changing room. She couldn't help it, she always fancied the finer things in life. After deciding that she was fit to properly go out Tove apparated a few streets from the bar. Walking briskly in the cold, the snow starting to come down thick in the night. When she made it to the bar she rushed inside, not bothering to look around at the wandering eyes that watched her make her way to the far end of the bar. Sitting down in their usual spot, she smiled sweetly at the bartender, "Whiskey, please."

 But misery loves company Tonight all I need is a stranger February 1, 2026 @tove Rhys looked for the familiar when he felt stressed. That Sunday marked the entry of the second month of the year, yet enough had occurred the past January to fill several years. But it was the pattern of Rhys’ life. In one way or another, something weighed on him greatly—it could either be his mind or whatever stone slab he was trying to hold up while slowly sinking in the Egyptian sands. A bar was by far the most familiar place he could think of, though anywhere with a significant amount of whiskey would have sufficed—well almost any place.
Earlier in the day, he had pulled out his phone and searched for a name and a number, but he realized that the contact list on his phone was limited to whomever he had seen after acquiring the device. So, it was back to good ‘ol ink and parchment for this inquiry, and a quick note was scrawled and attached to the leg of his very bored owl Eris. The response had been relatively quick, and Rhys made his way into muggle London where some Wizards and Witches would make their rounds. Familiar faces and a guarantee of an easy time were all he craved after the complexity of his recent life and recent realizations. He didn’t want to think about the girl he’d been avoiding, the same girl he couldn’t stop thinking about—his best friend’s younger sister.
It was cold, even for Rhys, who always ran warm. While some might have been layered in sweaters and coats, Rhys was happy with a light jacket, but he was still adjusting from spending so long on that Island with its strange magic that even he felt the chill travel up his spine. He entered the bar and paused a moment. Nobody paid him much attention as they lived in their own little worlds, but he spotted the familiar red hair of his intended guest for the evening. Though the sight of red hair made him pause a moment…Renfri’s voice characteristically popped into the back of his mind with some quip about redheads, but he shook that thought away. ”Did you get started without me?” Rhys announced his presence as he took the seat next to Tove’s.
They had met some time ago in this pub and then other pubs. And even the seldomly social Rhys found he was comfortable in her company, and it made it easier that neither had any expectations except for a fun time. The perfect counter to his current stressful life fraught with such things as impending fatherhood and unrequited love. Maybe it was some karmic retribution for the many years on and off with Deva, the only serious relationship he’d ever considered. ”How are you?” Rhys tried to pinpoint the last time they had seen one another—there was a fuzzy memory of a Friday night, whiskey, a nightcap, and hangover potions in the morning. The bartender came back around with a whiskey—though not for him. ”The same.” Rhys requested as Tove’s drink was placed in front of her and the bartender looked at him.
