[size=1]Kevin was reluctant to drop Emma's arm as they appeared in his old common room, which was abuzz with activity. The room was simply and modestly decorated with a blue carpet, some black and white modern art on the walls, lots of black and white photography, and numerous white desks. There were french l'Aurore's everywhere, chatting over one another. Kevin raised an eyebrow, and remarked,

"Same as always."

With a grin. [/size]

She took in the common room with awe. This is amazing. It's so modern and organised. Well the room at least and for the Aurors its the same as at home. Lots of activity.

Do you miss it here?

[size=1]Kevin looked around, and then back at Emma.

"Not anymore I don't. You weren't here."

Kevin said softly, and began pulling her around the room, towards David's desk. David was the only other l'Aurore who spoke English, even if it wasn't as good as Kevin's. [/size]

[size=1]Kevin smiled and squeezed her hand in response.

"The infamous David. He's-"

Kevin got cut off, as David put a hand to his ear, and began yelling into the watch on his wrist. [/size]

"Je ne m'inquiète pas si elle fixe votre dessert préféré, elle étais la dernière petite amie de Gilbert !"

Kevin giggled slightly at the statement, and translated for Emma.

"He's on an invention of ours, like the muggle phone, but much better, and not as hard to carrying around as a fireplace for flooing. He said 'I don't care if she is fixing your favorite dessert right now, she was the last girlfriend of Gilbert!'."

Kevin laughed a little, though he hadn't really taken in what David said. If he did, he'd have recognized his cousin's name.

She tried to keep up with what David said with what little French she knew but could only pick up the odd word. She grinned as Kevin's translated. Gilbert?

[size=1]Oui, Gilbert ! Elle est allée sourde pendant que vous la mentionnez ? Grand juste ! Grand.[/size]

Kevin realized as she did that he'd said Gilbert.

"Er- yeah, Gilbert, that's my cousin...I don't know why David's asking about him. He said, 'Yes Gilbert! She goes deaf as you mention him? Just great! Great.' "

Kevin shook it off, figuring he'd ask Abi later. He didn't want to be bothered by it.

Non d'Oh, Monsieur. Merci, tellement tellement. Oui. Je serai en contact.

Kevin giggled. "Oh no, Monsier. Thank you, so so much. Yes. I'll be in touch."

David released his ear and dropped his watch.

"Kevin! And who's this lovely mademoiselle?"


"Emma, I'm going to check up on a few things, I'll be around though, why don't you just explore?" Kevin said with a grin, and kissed her quickly, before heading out into the fray to talk to them all.

[[OOC: translation- i apparantly have to go to church, and will be back in approximately two hours fifteen minutes.... so feel free to post here talking to David, lol]]

She kissed him back and nodded awkwardly wondering what to say to David. She decided to at least try something in French to be polite, even though he spoke perfect English.

Uh... Oui. Je suis Emma. Enchante Monsieur. She gave a small smile as she tried to remeber her French.

Pleased to meet you too, Emma but please dont feel obligated to speak English. He grinned slyly. So... how do you know Kevin?

Emma blushed.. and looked at the ground. Um well... im very good friends with Abi and i guess you know theyre cousins. And Kevin came over to our branch in Britain and i guess we hit it off...

David grinned and nodded at her words. Really? Well... you seem like a lovely young lady... He then stated to engage her in conversation.

[Ooc: Um okay.]

[size=1]Kevin came back over to hear David and Emma sharing a laugh over something, and he noticed Emma looked a little nervous.

"I am sooo sorry about that. Francis just was updating me on the status of things here...which look great as a side note."

He gave Emma a soft apologetic smile, and offered her his arm.

"Shall we go to dinner then?"

[[OOC: yeah....sooooo sorry! my mom just like walked in and was like 'ok! let's go!' and i was like 'uh...where?' and she was like 'church! it's ash wednesday!' *commence lighntning fast change*]] [/size]

Emma grinned as Kevin returned, having had a lovely chat with David she felt a bit more relaxed. Dinner sounds lovely, Kevin. It was nice meeting you David. She took Kevin's offered arm.

[size=1][[OOC: LMAO- I was just rereading that date lol..you'll notice there was a Gilbert then as well..*raises eyebrow*]]

Abi walked in saying, "I haven't seen this place in forever..." before halting. Instead of the usual activity, it was only David, sitting at his desk, with his head in his hands.

"Er.... David?"[/size]

Kevin followed. "I guess it has been a while for you hasn't it?"

He followed her over to David's desk, face serious. This wasn't a soccial visit. "It's about that file you sent me, about Gilbert's arrest..."

[size=1]"Yes, it has been a while... correct me if I'm wrong, but normally isn't there like a whirl of activity in here? " Abi said, before hearing David speak.

"Oui, j'ai figuré. Qu'est-ce vous veulent-il savoir ?"[/size] David spoke rapid french to Kevin and nodded a hello to Abi, who frowned and held up her hands.

"Woah, woah, none of that. You know I don't speak French. What did you say?"

"Je ne peux pas parler anglais Gilbert ai fait désormais du charme sur nous ici et nous tous parlons différentes langues maintenant. Il est été un cauchemar." David insisted.


[[OOC: Yes, I figured. What is it you want to know? && then- I can't speak English anymore- Gilbert did some spell on us here and we all speak different languages now. It's been a nightmare.]]

Kevin sighed, "How did he manage that? I mean, he's still under custody isn't he? You neglected to send us tinformation on the circumstances of his arrest. A few things just aren't adding up."

[size=1]"Bien, c'est parce que l'arrestation n'était pas soupçonneuse. Aucun de nous n'est exactement sûr ce qui s'est produit vraiment ; Gilbert a apparu ici, et a moulé du charme qui nous a confondus tous considérablement, mais quand il partait, je me suis déclenché le, et le bondis. Maintenant il le réclame était sous un charme lui-même, et était une victime en tout de ceci ; que c'était le défaut du frère d'Abi. Et nous avons communiquer dur de temps... Sebastien parle un certain dialecte inconnu de Chinois dans l'intéret de merlin." [/size] David spewed in rapid French with an apologetic look on his face to Abi, who still didn't know what was going.

"Why won't he speak English?" Abi demanded of Kevin.

[[OOC:Well, that's because the arrest wasn't suspicious. None of us are exactly sure what happened really; Gilbert showed up here, and cast some spell that confused us all greatly, but when he was leaving, I tripped him, and bound him. Now he claims he was under a spell himself, and was a victim in all of this; that it was Abi's brother's fault. And we are having a hard time communicating... Sebastien is speaking some unknown dialect of Chinese for merlin's sake.]]

"Well at least I can understand you." Kevin gave him an encouraging smile, then translated all that David had said, to Abi.

"So the arrest wasn't fishy but everything else is. Is Gilbert available for us to question?"

[size=1]Abi frowned at this and then said with a sigh,

"I can fix that. Hang on."

She closed her eyes blinking slowly, and opening them praying that she would be in monotones. After a moment, she was, and after whispering in Italian to herself [thank god for that dictionary] a trail of magic became clear to her, and she read it quietly to herself, blinking out.

"Wow. David, Gilbert or whoever he's with is quite the spellcaster; it's a web of translating spells and language works. I can probably just erase the magic..."

She tried, whispering in Italian again, and then said.

"Can you speak English now?"

"Oui. I mean- yes." David blushed. "How did you....??"[/size]

"No time for that, David. Answer Kevin's questions." Abi was having a bit of trouble catching her breath, and was breathing heavily due to using the monotones. They were getting easier to use the longer she'd had them, but were still rather tiring.

"Oh of course. Yes, he's being held just downstairs; he's not on trial yet." David responded a bit concerned with Abi's heavy breathing, and obviously glad that he could talk English again.

"Well that seemed to work." Kevin turned a concerned eye to Abi. "You okay? Ready to interrogate Gilbert?"

[size=1]"Yeah, I'm fine, don't worry this is normal. Yeah, let's go. Thanks David!" Abi said with a smile and headed out the door with a look of determination.
