However, a picture really could say a thousand words and a good title really sold the image. If anyone could capture him in a snapshot, it would be Jude.
A grin appeared on his face. "Can you say that again? I'd like that on the record," he said as he pulled out his phone and opened a voice recording app, allowing the teasing to carry on before he set the device down. "It really is a wonderful idea. Just imagine what a statement it'll make, and you will have the comfort of knowing that in a way I will always be around." He swatted back at the swatting until he gave up and returned his attention momentarily to popping a bit of food inside his mouth. "Yeah. I will likely make a better healer than an interior designer though."
He chuckled at the bow and the my-close-friend-is-a-famous-healer bit. "Oh, please, Jude. You'll be famous before I am, so I'll have the pleasure of saying that and being your secret keeper." Now it was his turn to wink before his expression became more serious as he took in the advice that his friend had to offer him. "Keep the ego in check, maintain normal eye contact, speak clearly, and be myself. Sounds easy enough." Truthfully he'd have to say that he did most of those things already. But the words coming from his friend were reassuring.
"The house elves' cooking is definitely something that I miss about Hogwarts. Really the entire kitchen, its close proximity, and the endless supply of food," Daf reminisced before the topic of their conversation shifted to those friendly dorm cuddles. "Oh, no, this is just too much! I can feel my head inflating at an alertly fast rate," he replied, placing a hand on his forehead, before letting out a fit of laughter. "But I do give excellent cuddles. I'm glad to have been of service."
Jude tapped his chin thoughtfully. “You’re absolutely right, of course. The title should be eye-catching as well, hmmm.” While this much was true, he knew the biggest attention grabber would be a photo of Daf. “How about this? ‘Hunky Healer: How To Achieve Your Dreams While Appearing To Not Age A Day’. Too lengthy? If it is, I’m sure we can shorten the title but yeah. That’s how we get started on a bestseller!” He threw in a wink.
The phone was eyed. “I will do no such thing, thank you very much,’’ Jude replied smoothly, quite ignoring the phone and reaching for a tuna sandwich. His stomach had so much space left despite him having consumed much already. “In any case, you’d better always be around. I mean, I know you’ll be a big shot Healer and all but…” That’s right ex-roomie! Healer, interior designer, it didn’t matter. You’d better not forget your friend!
It was a fact that Jude often forgot he was on the path to stardom and therefore would be famous. He spent a lot of his time thinking and worrying about his closest friends drifting away from him that he didn’t stop to think that he would be the one a lot busier than them. Daf’s words earned a laugh. “It’s a good thing I know you’re trustworthy! Don’t want my deep, dark secrets being spilt.” He playfully wagged a finger. “And of course, your future partner will have to pass my scrutiny. Looks, personality, intelligence, commitment level to you…” Uh huh, the entire works! Only the best for Daf! “Kind of a miracle you never got super doughy with all the extra food,’’ Jude commented nonchalantly, now rummaging through the basket. Ooh, pickles! One was removed from the jar. Peering over at Daf, he gave an eyeroll. “As if it isn’t big and heavy already! Careful or you might need a Healer friend to perform the proper procedure for head popping.” |
