As their vessel glided towards the bank and finishing line, far from first place but at least pretty-looking — and mercifully in tact — Clue had to admit this had been... fun.

And he couldn't imagine it being that way with any other partner-in-crime than Narcissus Laurent. In fact, Clue wouldn't be doing this at all if it weren't for his suggestion.

Climbing nimbly from the pumpkin onto dry (albeit squelchy) land at last, Clue regarded the crowds of onlookers and participants, many of whom were laughing, cheering and chatting, having also enjoyed the day (just to a much louder extent than Clue). He thought a moment, then replied to Narcissus; "Bonfire? Though I would like to think of a way we can preserve the design..."

White swans and black crows taking flight together, as one flock, staying above a decoration of rising waves below. A perfect pumpkin design for the Slytherin pair.
