So it goes.
Sadde doesn't come up with a good idea for a club for most Slytherins. Their intersecting interests seem to lie in the vicinity of "Pureblood club" and that's something Sadde will not support. They haven't managed to befriend all firsties, but their consistent association with the Ravenclaws coupled with helping people out pretty consistently has gotten most people to give them the benefit of the doubt. The trickster-ish streak does mean people are a bit confused about them, though.
Older Slytherins are still pretty resolutely against Sadde, but that's not too bad, and it's only been three and a half months.
(Also, Sadde has managed to not ask Miranda about her plans for a month and a half. Even if the curiosity is eating them inside.)
And Winter Holidays are next week.

"Nuh uh, it's super fun! And there is a particular genre, superhero comics, that's pretty big amongst comics in general because it's so much harder to write books about superhero action. The Incredible Hulk is from one of those! It's this scientist who's nice and polite but when he gets angry he becomes this big muscled green person who smashes things up!"

"It is! But there's a whole lot of story there and he's actually a pretty deep and interesting character."

"It's the losing-control-and-smashing-things part that's hulkish! Well, also the turning-into-a-monster part."

Once everyone is home for the hols, Miranda sends Amber to Sadde with a letter saying that he can come over at three and stay as late as for dinner if desired.

"Happy Christmas!" Laura and Sadde say. The former has brought pie! "I can't believe I'm saying this but I kinda miss school?"

"Well it's a very effective reason! ...hey, you told me once that children can be homeschooled, how do they do that if they can't do magic?"

"Uuuum... Mum?"
"You have to alert the Ministry that you're homeschooling, but the Trace isn't actually good at telling who is doing magic, so students with parents who can do magic would tend not to be caught anyway," Renée says.

"Put it over here," Renée says, pointing. "I hope you like roast beef!"
Sadde may watch Renée cook with wanded spells and Miranda assist with magical appliances.

It makes everything go a lot faster. In particular, the magical potato peeler is a huge timesaver.
