"I guess I could definitely use a wingwoman," Junie replied. "I think by myself I'd probably say something embarrassing, I need someone to discreetly pinch me when I'm about to continue being embarrassing."

Willow laughed lightly at the way that Juniper had chosen to word it. "I'm sure that's not true," she then said, wanting to offer the other some comfort. "I'll gladly wingwoman for you if you'd ever want that. Like I said, you're a catch and I'd be surprised if we really threw you out there that you'd come up empty handed."

"Oh, yes! You Bes Kamel, are an absolute genius," Juniper replied. "It's like you're reading my mind!"

"Some type of m&ms? Is that all? You know what I feel would go well with that right now? Ice cream. Like a whole Sundae in fact sprinked with them on top." He encouraged.

"I'm aware, that's why I'm standing out here," Juniper replied. "Sorry to break it to you, but I also have a job to do. I had to come deliver this, it's some evidence for the upcoming case. Are you going to come to take it or will you allow me to cross the supposed threshold?" Junie hated bringing anything here and seeing Merle, she hated how it made her feel, especially with how Merle treated her. Junie understood mostly, she was her brother's fling, but Junie didn't come to England because of Merle, or Piper, or even Harry, she came because she needed somewhere else, she needed somewhere that wasn't full of memories of a shit family, strong last names, and bad decisions. It wasn't ideal that Merle and Piper were here, but she had made the choice, and she liked her job here, the people here, and she wasn't going to let Merle ruin that.

"What are you doing here?" Merle asked with furrowed brows as she saw Juniper standing at her office door. "This area is for official Wizengamot business only. I don't need you skulking around out there," she huffed, trying to focus on the case in front of her.

"Oh yeah, I'm totally for that," Juniper said with a smile, thought at Ronnie's response, she suddenly got the dark feeling that made her just want to hide, to be alone and contemplate on why she had been so embarrassing, now this girl probably hated her. "I'm Junie, or June, either works."

"Not the weirding situation I've ever found someone in," Ronnie admitted, trying to get rid of the scolding expression she felt coming on her face by putting a smile on, "Maybe we could start taking this seriously though," she suggested. It was times like this that she missed Fred.

[juniperfontaine]

"Definitely like some type of m&ms," she answered. "Preferably the pretzel ones, but I feel like I haven't been able to find those anywhere in so long."

"I'd say you'd be surprised what there are apps for these days but that's a lie." Because it seemed like there was one for everything really. "But of course I will. Right now though I am more interested in what your sweet tooth is craving since that was the thing you seemed to immediately want."

"Oh? Do you need any help? I can wingman for you if you'd like," he offered with a smile. "Yeah, she's with her best friend right now," Damien replied with a nod when asked about his girlfriend. "I'm sure she'll pop her head back around soon enough. She's not the type to totally desert me," he added with a chuckle.

[juniperfontaine]

"I think I've lost my touch," she said. "It's like I graduated from Ilvermorny and poof, I can't flirt anymore." That probably wasn't the reason, but Juniper didn't want to fully dig into the real reasons.

"I mean I certainly let myself have fun if that's the answer you're looking for," Willow replied with a laugh. "I'm guessing you weren't so lucky? How is that possible– you're a total catch, Junie. Do you need me to help wingwoman for you next time or something?"

[juniperfontaine]

"Yeah, let's do that, we should go get something sweet too," she mentioned. "There's an app for that?" Juniper asked, her eyes widened. 'I didn't know there's an app. You definitely have to show me."

"Well then we can do the couch. Wanna walk and grab some food to bring in? We can use the app that lets us swipe right on movies we like and then when we both have one we agree on it tells us. Seems like a pretty good way to make the decision."

closed starter - junie & ronnie ( @vcronicavance )

Junie had been waiting for Ronnie to go check out a place for a job they had to do. In the meantime, her co-worker had dared her to show him something when he didn't believe she used to work for cirque du soleil. Junie looked at the other upsidedown, with a guilty smile, when she saw her. Junie stood up, dusting herself off. "Hi, it's Ronnie, right? Ignore whatever that was, I was proving someone wrong. I swear I'm like totally normal most of the time."

[juniperfontaine]

"Honestly, I'm totally chill with either," Junie replied. "Though I feel like I definitely focus better just on a couch instead of the movie theatre. I don't know what it is, but going to the movie theatres and sitting there is just not it for me sometimes."

"I mean that depends. Are we talking cinema's or just home on the tv?" He asked after a moment, grinning at the fact she was willing to put up with his whims right now.

[juniperfontaine]

"Oh yeah, totally," Junie replied with a nod. "Is there a movie you've been dying to see? I feel like I'm definitely not up to date on the movies that are currently out."

"I doubt I would actually." Mainly because he was sure that she was more than capable but he really didn't want to hash through this right now. "I hate to turn down a perfectly good offer but can I instead ask that maybe we do something fun tonight instead. Relaxing? Maybe we can hit up a movie and grab some popcorn."

"Please tell me that you ended up finding someone you like at the event," Junie said, plopping down next to Willow. "I want at least one of us to have gone home with someone that night."

[juniperfontaine]

"Hey, why don't you try me? You'd be surprised at how much I can handle."

"Isn't that what I'm doing?" Bes pointed out with a small grin as he looked up at the woman from his position. "I have no doubts about that though but it's nothing I'd wanna bog you down with Juni. I'll be fine after a sleep and maybe a take away."

[juniperfontaine]

Junie smiled at Damien when he handed her a drink. "Thanks," she said. "I am enjoying it, yeah, but I wouldn't say I'm having luck on the whole trying to mingle and flirt tonight though. How about you? Is your girlfriend here?"

"Hey June, it's good to see you," he smiled in greeting as he came up to the brunette. "How are you doing? Enjoying yourself tonight?" Damien asked, holding out one of the two drinks in his hands to her in a friendly manner.

Junie shrugged. "Nothing, I guess," she replied. Though she knew with the meds she was taking for her depression that all this alcohol was about to hit her harder. "It's been a while since I've gotten drunk, though I feel like I'd also be having fun here sober, so not drinking more would be fine too."

"I think you might have misunderstood me there but if it taught me anything, it is where I stand with you." Orion spoke with a laugh of amusement when she confessed to not sharing something like that with anything. He couldn't say he would blame her. "And what is stopping you from drinking a little bit more then?"

[juniperfontaine]

"Do you want to talk about it?" Juniper asked. "The thing about being a hit-wizard is that I'm good at listening and also keeping a secret."

"Does it now?" Bes huffed, letting his eyes close for a moment. "What isn't at the moment. Maybe I'm just a little tetchy..." He admitted, though it had been a difficult week. "I'm just... very glad it's Friday."
