"Damn it." Clear Rivers-Flahtery cursed as she dropped her diamond earring into the sink. She was in the Multi-Gender Restroom at the London Theater. She was supposted to meet her daughter, sons, and husband before she shot started. Unfortunately for the Flahtery Wife, they hadn't specified where to meet. Right in the middle of the show, Clear had to use the bathroom. But, to her dismay, the girl's and boy's bathrooms had a line going all the way to the Food Court. So she came in here where there was, for some reason, no line. The bathroom symbol had a little magical wand on it. So she also assumed that this was a magical bathroom.

A small *fwup* noise was heard as something shiny shot up from the mouth of the drain. "Here Mum,"said Adam, softly, holding out the earring in the palm of his hand. His other free hand was stuffing his wand back into his dress pants. He shifted his weight over to his left foot, stuffing his hand into his pocket. Blowing his soft blonde bangs from his eyes, he grinned, widely. As a Flaherty, it was a given that Adam was gorgeous. But to see him in a crisp black tuxedo was heartstoppingly breathtaking. He was dressed formally. A black suit with a white polo underneath. A jet black tie knotted neatly around his neck. Adam leaned forward and kissed his mother softly on the cheek. "'Lo Mum,"he greeted, cheerfully.

"Oh Adam." She said, cleaning the earring quickly with a anti-septic spell. She looked around "Is your father here yet? I wasn't able to find 'im and tghe show is half-way done!"
The door jiggled and wouldn't unlock. "Let me in!" A female voice was behind the door. "Let me in!" Someone was banging on the magical door, and it was obvious they were not magical. "I hear voices!" Clear looked over at the door and finally heard a guitar hitting the door and it broke. A hand came through the hole and unlocked the door. Polyhymmnia came through and looked at the two with a smile. "What? It wouldn't let me in."

Adam raised an eyebrow. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly. "Hello sis,"he greeted with a smile. "How's it going?"he asked, politely before turning back to his mother. "Father's still watching the godforsaken Nutcracker. Or rather.. Sleeping through it. He's had a long day,"Adam added quietly. "Adam's gone to pick up some girls at the-OWW!"
Andrew apparated into the bathroom, smacking Adam hard over the head. With a gleeful smile on his face, he glided over to his mother, giving her a kiss on both cheeks. " 'Lo Mummy!"he greeted and turned to face his sister. " 'Lo Poly!"shouted Andrew, giving her a tight squeeze and another kiss on both cheeks.

"The name's Hymm, Andork." Hymm stepped through the door, wearing a dark silk dress with musical notes carefully laced at the top border and the bottom. Three notes acted like a belt, and they were. A shinny silver belt using musical notes. "Adam, Andrew, dears." Hymm tilted her head and batted her eyelashes "Can one of you big bad wizards fix your sister's guitar?" She twirled her battered guitar. She had brought it for this reason, everytime she saw her brothers, they always fixed her guitar. Last time, they had even added her name on the side. "Andrew, young man. Is that Firewhiskey I smell?" Clear raised an eyebrow. "I thought you went to Rehab for that a month back?"

Andrew winced slightly, but grinned wider at the nickname. "Ah, how I've missed our bickering. Gaylord here's no fun,"he complained, hugging his sister tighter and stuck out his tongue at Adam. Adam gave a sigh and ignored Andrew, stepping forward to reach for Hymm's guitar. With a quick tap of his wand, the guitar was repaired. "Here Hymm,"Adam said, handing the guitar back to her. "Why did you bring your guitar in the first place?"he asked, raising an eyebrow.
"She's a Flaherty, Gaylord. Need I say more?"sighed Andrew and he turned to Clear. "I just took a sip Mummy. I'm not that drunk,"he added with a dorky grin spread across his face. Yet... He added silently.

"Because, you always fix it for me." Hymm smiled and began to strum a few bars. "Could you tune it propperly next time!?" She asked as she adjusted the streams. "I will not have a 'Just a sip'. I got a call from your boss, Mr. James Potter. He says that you come in to work drunk. . . All the time." Clear glared at him.

Adam shook his head and chuckled softly. "Yes ma'am,"he bowed down in a prince-ly fashion. "Your wish is my command,"he added, jokingly.
Andrew rolled his eyes. "Miscommunication. I only show up to work drunk because it's part of my job. I go around getting the most information from people! Especially the ladies,"he added, chuckling to himself. "I mean. COME ON! How else are you supposed to get information from women? Studies show that the easiest way to get something from women is drunken sex,"he said, bluntly, shrugging.

"Andrew. Do I have to make you stay at the shoppe for another month?" She was nearly threatening to ground him. "So, how is our Gaylord Plant-o-phile?" Hymm looked at Adam and ignored Andrew. She was glad no one had noticed how she couldn't get into the damnable Magical bathroom. "And since when can't he tune a guitar with magic?"

Andrew looked down at his feet. "No Mum,"he said, dejectedly, shuffling his feet. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly as he held back a smile.
Adam twitched slightly, wincing several times. "You know Hymm, I'd rather you'd not call me by that name,"he said, softly. "But I've been doing well, I suppose. Not dead from the dragons yet,"he laughed, half-heatedly. "And since I've been a bit lazy with wands."

"I honestly don't care much for wands anyways." She looked back at the door. "Speaking of which, can you fix that door? I fear legal action." She honestly did not have the money to be sued for a magical door. "Don't laugh at me in your head, young man!" Clear slapped him with her purse.

Adam nodded and pulled out his wand. "Reparo,"he muttered and flicked his wand at the door. A shimmering light was casted on the door and it was repaired. "So exactly why didn't you just say it was you. We would've opened it,"he added, grinning slightly.
Andrew winced as the purse impacted with his head. "OWWCH! I WASN'T DOING THAT MA!"he shouted, rubbing his head.

"Because I was really just trying to go to the restroom." Hymm said softly. "Muggles can't seem to see this door. So I was pissed when I couldn't get in." She shrugged. "I'll file a complaint with the Ministry when I get home." Home was a flat in downtown Muggle London. Well, not a flat as much as some random guy's basement where the floors creaked and every five mintes the upstairs neighbour decided to begin breakdancing again. She had tried filing to live in a Magical neighbourhood. But, unfortunately, the only place open was if she took a job at Hogwarts as Muggle Studies or, worse, Caretaking. The thought of that job made her shutter. Besides, Hymm found it easier to file complaints when she wasn't cleaning some brat's floors. In fact, Filing complants against magically inclined peoples was one of her weekly activities. Mainly because she was bored. But also because it was tiring not being able to get into magical bathrooms and such when she visited her mother and father. Clear whacked him again. "You liar!" Clear put her purse down and touched her ear. "I'm sorry, deary. But I'm not in an exactly good mood today." She said, apologising.

Adam nodded silently. He looked away at the scene between Clear and Andrew. He didn't want to let his sister see the pity in his eyes. Adam closed his eyes and looked back at Hymm, a grin on his face. "I expect you to give the bloody Ministry hell,"he said, teasingly. He hadn't quite fully forgiven the Ministry for proposing the Dragon hunting Act a few months back. "How is 'home' anyways?"he asked, raising an eyebrow.
Andrew ducked and barely missed his mother's whacking purse. He rose up slowly, glancing at his mother warily. "It's not problem Mum,"he grinned, smiling widely. He glanced at her purse cautiously. "It's just your time of the months, innit?"he asked, between laughs.

Hymm nearly glared at Adam, guessing what he had thought. "Home is in London as of this moment. But I'm expected to move somewhere soon." She said, almost snapping. "And I always do." Hymm was proud, and most of her family knew this. Thus, the topic of her 'Magical Disability' was not talked of much. But she did not appreciate it when it was. Clear's eyes went red. They went back and she said, quietly "Would you like a peice of gum, Andrew deary? I insist." She opened her purse and brought out a piece of 'Hubba Bubba Ultra-Max!

Adam winced slightly, knowing he waws a horrible actor. "Sorry Hymm,"he mumbled, under his breath, turning a bright red. Andrew -being the idiot that he is- grinned widely. "Sure Mum!"He grabbed the bubblegum from his mother and quickly popped it into his mouth, chewing noisily.
Adam's eyes widened as he took several steps back. "DREW NO!"he shouted, loudly right before Andrew popped the gum in his mouth.
Andrew turned around to face Adam, eyebrows raised. "What is it?"he asked between chews.
"DON'T AIM YOUR MOUTH AT ME!!"shouted Adam, holding his wand out as protection.
"WHY?!"

"Nothing to be sorry for." Hymm snarled before seeing the bubble. Hymm's eyes widened in fear and Clear's burst with delight. "Run!" Hymm scram, running into one of the booths and plopping herself (And her fancy dress, to her disdain) into the toliet. Clear just kept laughing and made a short shield spell.

Adam's eyes grew wide with terror and anger. STUPID DREW! He flicked his wand and casted a shield charm on himself as well as a shield charm on Andrew. Hopefully, the gum stayed inside the bubble. Where it erupted was Andrew's business, not his.
Andrew immediately realized what was going on and tried to spit the gum out, but it was too late. The gum had already enlarged and began to inflate itself. Three secnds later, the mass of the bubble gum was larger than Andrew. "OH CRAP!"he mouthed before the gum exploded with a KAPLOOFSH!! Pieces of gum splattered everywhere inside the shield charm, engulfing Andrew in a mountain of sticky gooey gum.

While this was happening, Clear was laughing so hard that she was now dirting her dress by rolling on the floor. "Oh My God!" She was saying. "I raised you with that trick and you still fell for it!" She was laughing until she began to snort. "That trick never, and I do mean,nevergets old." Clear said, finally standing and cleaned off her dress. "Hymmnia, deary. You can come out now." She said, muttering a spell to dry off Hymm's dress. Hymm looked irritated at the use of so much damned magic, but was relieved that her dress was fixed. She wanted to laugh, and she did a little. "Hell, I even knew that was coming." Hymm said.

The corners of Adam's lips twitched upwards. Since he was a child, he had trained himself to be reasonably polite to people's misfortune. This was no different. He covered his small grin with his free hand, shaking slightly from laughter.
Andrew made several loud groans as if he were trying to talk. He attempted to wave his arms around wildly, but was stopped by the massive amount of gum, pulling his arms down.
Adam shook his head in disbelief and waved his wand once. The gum from Andrew's mouth disappeared.
"WHAT THE BLOODY HELL? AND YOU CALL YOURSELF A MUM?! I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU USE YOUR OWN CHILDREN AS GUINEA PIGS!"he shouted, furiously at Clear.
Adam raised an eyebrow and sent a glance at his mother. "Mum. Would you like me to restuff his mouth?"he asked with a grimace.

"Guinea Pig? No. But I adore using my EEG for revenge purposes." Clear smiled wistfully and tilted her head "It's just your time of the month, innitit?" She said, laughing. Hymm was shaking her shoes, keeping wetness away from them. She smiled a bit at the prank and looked to Adam. "Where's da?"

Andrew's eye twitched several times. "Lovely Mother. Just lovely. Does Father know you're doing this to his precious precious children?"he asked, raising an eyebrow. "Perhaps that would explain my stupidity and Adam being the Gaylord that he is."
Adam rolled his eyes and shot a glare at Andrew. "Don't rope me into whatever sick argument you've thought of Drew,"he said allowed, turning back to Hymm. "I think Father's on his way. He probably figured out that his whole family's gone missing and decided to look for us. It shouldn't take him very long to-"
A soft knock rapped on the door three times in a row. "Hello? Is anyone in there?"the familiar smooth voice called from outside.

Hymm's head turned sharply at the door. "Nah, we are in the other magical bathroom." She still wasn't entirly over Adam's big blunder and so she snapped mildly at her father. "Andrew." Clear smiled and looked at him. "You are a fully grown adult, you are lucky I didn't wack you with my purse after that comment." Adam Sr., of course, knew about the whole 'Clear Rivers and Kat Marvin' thuing, so it was okay if Andrew told him all about her making him pop his own little bubble.

The door opened slowly and Adam Sr. walked in. He was dressed for a play in a crisp dark blue, almost black suit. His hair was as messy as ever. He grinned at his daughter. "Nice to see you haven't changed much Hymm,"he reached over to give Hymm a hug and a quick kiss on the top of her head. Adam Sr. turned around to look at the remains of the gum on Andrew, then quickly looked at Clear. A small hint of a smirk glided across his face. "What did he do this time?"he asked, chuckling lightly.

"Do you honestly have to ask?" Clear replied, forgetting if she had already done a cleaning spell on her own dress. She loved Andrew (she would never call him Drew) but she loved her well mannered children just a tad more. Yes, Clear's a bitch. "Besides, just because he has bits of EEG on him doesn't mean I did it." She smiled. Hymm placed her guitar behind her and wished she hadn't brought it. It was bulky and was very hard to carry around constantly.
