Continental Breakfast Included
The King and Queen have a great many parlors at their disposal, ranging from the very grand to somewhat very grand.
And then there is this one, which is generally reserved for the use of the family and their closest personal friends. It is a comfortable, sunlit sort of room, where one may find the children's toys and the Amy's embroidery and Perry's carving projects.
It is also where Amy has instructed her staff to lay out a breakfast for her friends this morning. They were all shown back to their rooms for what was left of the night before after their adventures, to at least attempt to get some rest.
Amy herself is a bit busy at the moment catching up on Official Matters: giving reports to the Deputy Captain of the Palace Guard and the Court Historian, seeing to the palace's new ghost (she's settled him in the Northwest tower, which is, she assures him, a perfectly lovely place to haunt), and reassuring her husband that yes, darling, she really is perfectly all right. She'll be along when she can.
In the meantime, everyone is free to make their way into the parlor in their own time. When they arrive, they will likely find company, and definitely find a table laid with everything the kitchens could find to send up: bread and jam and marmalade, cakes and pastries, eggs and bacon and sausages, a giant bowl of fruit, tea and juice and milk.

Scorpius is all for meeting talking dragons.
Maybe they could chat about the art of flying?

"He's very clever. And if you stop by the kitchens for some apple pastries first, he'll probably be perfectly happy to see you."

"Susan throws them to him.
"They make something of a game of it.
"X helped her with throwing accuracy not too long ago. I hear about it a lot."

Scorpius thinks that quite adorable, actually.
Not that he'll squee about it or anything. But, he might make transfigure her a toy dragon before he leaves.
"How is Susan? And, er - The boys, too?"
no subject
"We'll send for them to come back this afternoon, probably. Wrennford is only a few miles outside Amber, and Stefan needed to check on things after the earthquake, anyway.
"Gracious, but it feels like it's been weeks since that, doesn't it?"
no subject
Thinking on it now, he's sort of missing Hogwarts andacertainsomeoneatHogwarts. But then -
He's not nearly been gone that long and he's liking the trip. Even with the clockwork agents and earthquakes and all.
"Maybe I'll see them again, before we go?"
no subject
"And if you don't, you'll just have to come back and visit again."
