What is it about January weather that made people flat out crazy, well one thing is for certian with the chill of the new year people rushed to the tea shop's for their refreshments, or in this case for the morning start offs, or in Astoria's case the life link that made mornings bearable.. It was the a standard need that piping cup of Earl Gray with room for cream and honey. Sadly at it seemed that at seven in the morning every witch and wizard in the world had that same hankering, and it seemed that everyone had opted to pile up on the door of the most known tea shop in England. For Astoria it was a daily haunt, a staple in her mornings a necessity that she needs to get threw her mornings.
Looking at the long line that threaten to protrude threw the door, Astoria knew she wasn't patient when she was tired or without her morning caffeine fix she was down right out irritable, but the thought of not having her little cup of tea was positively alarming to her so perhaps it was with great optimism that the line looked larger than it indeed was she pushed herself into that little packed tea shop..
Staring down line that contained at least 8 people she sucked a disapproving breath and honestly for the first time debated giving her business to that tea cart at Mungo's..However the aroma kept her locked in place with the promise of just a bit of her own patience would be rewarded with a delicious brew of tea that would warm her throat and mind for the long day that waited her.. With her fixation on the counter a good 10 feet away from her, she missed a few details like whom was in the line ahead of her.

Ron had a lot on his mind, and none of it was really pleasant for him. There were rumors abound regarding his wife and he was hoping they weren't true, despite what the Daily Prophet seemed to be saying. His daughter was soon to marry into the Malfoy family, and considering the rumors there was a lot that didn't seem all that good with that family. There was also the fact that a war was going on, and he didn't want all of this falling on top of him when there was already such a stressful time going on at work.
He opted that day to head to the tea shop to try and clear his head, as tea tended to relax him believe it or not. It was just something that got him past all sorts of trouble and chaos when he wasn't able to spend time with Hermione. And considering the rumors, he had to retreat to the tea shop rather than elsewhere. He could easily have gone to a pub, but that would've had far worse consequences than he would have wanted. What surprised him a the tea shop was who he was in front of.
"Hmph, well what a surprise seeing you in here, what with how you and your husband seem like you own the whole community," he said loud enough for just her to hear and no-one else. Astoria Malfoy wasn't on his be civil to list with all that was going on, and he was more or less eager to keep her and her family far enough away from him as possible. Things were going to be bad enough if the rumors proved to be true, and he was certain the fallout from that would do more damage to everyone than necessary. Notes: Yup Tag: ASTORIA YVAINE MALFOY

She heard the voice.. Not really hearing what he said she simply looked up in response it didn't take a second look around to see exactly whom was addressing her that shock of red hair would set him apart in a crowd of 1000's, much less the smaller crowd in the tea shop.. She went to offer him a wide smile that was complete with dimples because she was told constantly that she had a smile that would literally light up the far reaches of space. She was prone to let by gones be just that by gone's, however there was a tint of unpleasant in his tone of voice.. Looking at him she noticed that he had all the trade marks of a man that had just had a very long day..
Looking at him she sighed feeling literally sorry for him.. She knew what he was being a dark wizard catcher she knew his work must be busy at the present which meant his life must be a bit stressful at the moment. He must have been on the wrong side of a wand today, poor thing.. She looked at him he was third in line, now second as the witch at the front took her goods and vanished..
"Why Hello there Ronald.. " She offered softly, with a classic delicate smile that was a noted trait among the Greengrass women. It was then she heard her name. As the owner of the shop wisked behind the counter and took her hand and lead her to the front.. Notably being a regular and a noted officials wife did have its perks, she smiled softly as the owner took her order, and began making it herself.. Her blonde head glanced over her shoulder back at the her soon to be In-law and she offered slight smile.. " Come now not the whole community Ronald.. Just half.. I married the Malfoy name love.. That simply makes only half is mine."

Well that didn't really sit well with him, her being escorted ahead of him. It only seemed to validate his point, regardless of her saying that she only had half the wizarding world. Why was it that people acted so selfishly or so uppity that they felt like they owned everything and slash or everyone they see. It drove him to the point of near madness whenever he saw that. What were people worth to them other than just as something to step on as they waltzed through the world. It made him at least feel like there was no point trying to work hard and be successful that way, as if having a silver spoon as the muggles said worked better than anything else. Well, there was real accuracy to that expression as he never actually saw a silver spoon in a person's mouth unless they were eating something.
"Hmph, sure seems like it's only half," he replied, a slightly annoyed expression now on his face. She really wasn't someone he even wanted to talk to, yet he had opted to speak to her, why? That now made little to no sense to him. He hadn't even wanted to be within ten feet of her yet was talking to her, albeit more or less with him looking for ways to insult her while she cleverly deflected his attempts without issue. It was frustrating, yet at the same time surprising. Well, either way he didn't want to dwell on that, as then he might find some excuse to try having an actual conversation with her, which was out of the plans for him due to the desire to avoid the Malfoy family as much as possible, save for his daughter of course.

Astoria smiled sweetly at the woman behind her the counter whom prepared her piping hot tea with such precision, and skill that it literally looked like she was conducting a orchestra with that wand of her's, rather than making a deluxe chi latte with skim milk, and a teaspoon of honey.. While the owner worked laboriously on making her drink Astoria turned her blue eyes back at Ronald and noticed his vexed expression that spoke of the rage he was hiding not so well.
Being in Ravenclaw and several years younger than her husband she wasn't privledge to the inner workings of her husbands and Mr. Weasley's toilings but Astoria had seen a few exchanges that had happened at Hogwarts.. Naturally because she favored her husband she assumed it was jealousy like her sister suggested. So naturally she thought that perhaps this was just another incident of sour grapes.. He wasn't happy with loosing perhaps what was left of his pitiful existence to the Malfoy name.. Something she could understand as she didn't like loosing what she felt she meant to her son to another so with that she saw a chance to if not agree with his obvious bias towards wealth..
She looked over at the the woman, and fished from her cloak her coin purse pulled a gold coin from it, the woman finished her drink and sprinkled it with nutmeg and offered it to Astoria. Astoria took it, and offered the Galleon to the woman.. " For mine and Mr. Weasley drinks. It seems that he is still pre-occupied with wealth it might be kind to show him generosity that his not doubt is not used too.. "

That annoyed Ron, if not aggravated him. What on earth made her think that he wasn't able to afford the drink he wanted? What in Merlin's name made her think, that even if she thought he could afford the drinks, which he could, that she could buy him if that's what she as after? This was not sitting well with him and for obvious reasons. She was almost gloating about how much money she had and that was the bare minimum of things. What would it take to humiliate her? Because what she was doing was humiliating to him! Did she not see that? Or was it that she was trying to provoke anger and annoyance, and probably humiliation? Well then he simply resolved to counter her little plan with one of his own. He was skilled in strategy and tactics thanks to his time playing Wizards Chess, so he had no worries.
"Why thank you, Mrs Malfoy. Perhaps throwing your money around though isn't as much an act of generosity as you might think," he replied in a somewhat calm yet snippy tone. Well that strategy failed, as snippy would still probably give her some sort of satisfaction. Astoria Malfoy was going to drive him insane at the very least. Ordering his drink, still mentally grumbling that he wasn't actually paying for the drink, yet actually fine with it, though he wouldn't admit that. To do so would be to go against the stance he was taking at that moment, and to do that would be a symptom of madness in his mind. Receiving his drink from the woman at the counter, he thanked her before looking for a place to sit, just hoping that Astoria wouldn't try bothering him further. ASTORIA YVAINE MALFOY

It was certainly the higher road she needed to go on, her relationship with her future daughter in-law all but depended on that higher road that she needed to be on and stick to on times just like this. Astoria was a classy lady could handle much of anything difficult. Sadly she had one flaw, in that armor of icy exterior, and that was being spoken down too.
Sadly it wasn't exactly what Ronald Weasley had done, she had not set out to rain on his little parade.. In all honesty if he had just kept to himself they would have continued to exist in parallel spaces that didn't interact, his issues with Draco were exactly that HIS issues with Draco.. They did not effect her till he was in the midst of public shop attempting to call her out in public over an action that had at the root of things was meant as an act of kindness.
Honestly she didn't know what his issue was, she was just there to get a drink like him, she had swallowed his little insult she had turned the cheek and even bought him a drink to hopefully keep him in his place. She figured that the rest of the day would move smoothly she would be civilized and make him look stupid.. However that was the mistake she expected him to seeth in silence but no he was going to be rude, and she didn't' abide rudeness.
Turning to face him she smiled that soft sweet kind smile that she was noted for.. " Forgive me Mr. Weasley.. perhaps I do owe you an apology after all I have not the experience in dealing with the generosity of others, that you no doubt do.. "

"It's not the generosity, Mrs Malfoy, but rather the feeling that you didn't think I could afford what I was opting to buy. That sort of thing is a rather easy way to turn even the most even-mannered of men towards anger," he replied, his eyes hardening some. She seemed to not understand what her actions did, which made him see her as naive in the strongest sense. Every action had an equal and opposite reaction as he found out over the course of his life. Her actions weren't something that people necessarily agreed with. He wasn't poor, he could get his own drink. She almost seemed to be rubbing her gift wrapped status in his face, and that was hardly tolerable in any sense or at any time. To him though those who flaunted their wealth were the ones who were most afraid of losing it, and yet were foolishly taunting fate with how long they had held onto their money.
It was still something that angered him however, so if nothing else he needed away from the situation before things got worse. Finishing his drink, he then departed the shop, his mind moving quickly to try and cool off. What was her deal? What made her think her actions wouldn't get that kind of reaction from him? She should have known his family's undeclared war with the Malfoy family, and thus any actions done seemingly out of kindness would be taken as an insult! It was mind-boggling to think that she could discard all the evidence. Regardless he just needed to get back to work. Maybe that would take his mind off of all that he had gone through. If she followed him though, he would definitely have to figure out how to avoid causing an even greater scene. ASTORIA YVAINE MALFOY
