"...We shouldn't be drinking in the least bit."
"Ah, c'mon, kid. Live a little," Justin replied as he walked off. Seriously, the kid was square, completely square. He needed to learn to loosen up and live life--like a lot. Maybe he should include the kid in some sort of prank. Don't tell him he's going to be part of it but have it planned to pull him in halfway through, and he'd be so caught up he'd have fun and not realize what was going on until the end of it. Force the kid to have fun and realize sometimes it was fun to color outside the line. For now, he'd try to get the kid to drink more "spiked" punch for the laughs.
"I've never.... I've never drank before Evier."
"So?"
"I think I've had my limit."
Justin rose a brow. Aww...how cute. Kiddo thought he'd reached his limit because he wanted to be a square and color well within the lines. He wasn't even willing to walk the line. (Yes, he realized it was technically "walk the fence," but "walk the line" fit better with this illustration.) Justin sighed, clucking his tongue and shaking his head. "Bloody 'ell, kid. Just drink up. Live a li'l!"
He took a sip of his own punch then, having to swiftly work to keep himself from pursing his lips. This glass of punch was actually spiked. And he didn't have his wand to do a bit of magic to make some of the punch portion of his go to Christof's to ensure he didn't taste it as well. He brought his clear plastic cup down and shifted it to the other hand so his right was free for if/when Christof attempted to take a drink. He'd force him to keep drinking. Seriously, little squares like him annoyed Justin, and he wanted him to loosen up a little. This would be the best Yule Ball the kid would ever have, and this would be his own best Yule Ball. Kid would surely try to figure out how to undo the potion's effect on the professors when it went down if he wasn't at least tipsy.
