The Three Broomsticks; Late Night
Jo is Bored. Adulthood is sometimes Boring.
Fail, Adulthood, Fail. And the empty bar.
Where she "has to stay" for the time being.
To counteract this, Jo is sitting on one end of the bar reading her mail. Indian style. Wearing a cowboy hat only those who went to school with her would remember from their fourth year.

"Don't worry!" Sokka assures her, beaming happily. "I'm back!"

And crosses the space to steal the hat off her head, plopping it onto his own with a satisfied smile. "I can't believe you still have this thing. When are you going to buy me one?"
no subject
After that she reached out to tilt the hat so it sits right on his head. God. It's really been far too long. Really.
no subject
He pauses, patiently waiting for hat adjustment, and seems more satisfied for her attentions. "Besides, it's always nicer to have a thing that was only ever one thing. What if the bowl always wanted to be a bowl? It was meant to hold flour and eggs and not my hair.
"Also," arms are held out, grinning again, "hi."

And grabbed the lapels of his cloak to pull him to the counter and hug him, without having to get off it. He even got a kiss on his cheek, even though there wasn't much focus on it aside from making it own a dramatically loud "SMACK" sound.
"Was your life truly so dead and dull without me?"
no subject
Her question just leads to further grinning, adjusting his/her hat. "It really was. I had to come back a whole half-day early or risk infecting all the new firsties with my grumpiness. Of course, if you really wanted to improve my travels, you'd have something fascinating waiting for me in all those papers. So I don't have to amuse myself with term papers in my very first week back."

"Did you bring me a present, Sokka? Cause we can do the pleasantries when I figure out how pleasant I feel like being."

"Is that what our friendship has become, really? An exchange of gifts for affection? Way to cheapen the moment."

Leah flicks her wand and another essay moves from one pile to the next, while her enchanted quill moves down the next subject, picking out spelling errors in red.
"Wait until closing, mate. Then I'll welcome you home properly."
It'll involve ice down his robes, you'll see.

They are what has just appeared on the bar in front of her.
Then the door opens and a witch sweeps in, the brim of her hat pulled down just enough to shade the wildly rotating magic eyes in their sockets from local gaupers.
On entering the bar, however, the hat is removes and thrown expertly onto the hat stand as the former wearer comes to join the marking at the bar.

"Except I then have t'read the bloody things. Time Turners are unethical, right?"
She sits at the bar, and removes her outer robe, rubbing at her left eye. "Gonna help myself to a firewhisky. That alright?"
no subject
"Time turners are...less unethical now that we're not thirteen?"
no subject
"Probably not. But I'm s'posed to be more ethical, y'know? Something about being a good rolemodel."
no subject
"The first and best reasons I never became a teacher."

"It's brilliant, though. This year's going to be much easier than the last - it's only the first years I have to make a suitably scary impression on."
