Chapter Text
Simon
I’m glad to be speaking with Agatha again, it didn’t seem right to cut her out of my life. No matter how hard she tried to cut us all out. We’ve always been friends and that can’t stop now just because she ran off to America. At least now she calls. Penelope eventually got through to her and convinced her to at least try to stay in contact. I’m not sure how Penny managed it, I’m certain compulsion magic is still illegal.
I google the time in California every time I phone her now, Penelope tells me it should be easy enough to work out but I like to be sure. Once I phoned her in the afternoon here and woke her in the middle of the night, she was not amused.
“Good Morning, Simon”, the phone connects and I hear her voice.
“Good Evening, Agatha” I reply, smiling.
I think this is funnier than Agatha does but I can hear her breath out a laugh anyway.
“How’s you?” I ask
“Good, I’m going to brunch with Ginger in a bit”
My mind wanders to food, I’m on my way to the shop because Baz forgot to get sour cream to have with the nachos. My stomach grumbles and I bring my attention back to Agatha, she’s talking about avocado. When she realises she’s lost me, she asks me a question.
“Any plans this weekend?”
“Yeah, I’m going out on a date with Baz, he says that eating Chinese food on the sofa isn’t a date”
I am so glad that Penelope explained the liking boys part to Agatha, the liking Baz part, I don’t want her to think I didn’t like her. Penelope has always been better with words, I wouldn’t even know where to start. I left that catch up session to them.
“Simon why is your life suddenly like a romantic comedy?” Agatha laughs.
I shrug, then realise she can’t see it through the phone. I make a shrug noise.
I suppose Baz and I ending up together is a little odd, we weren’t exactly the obvious people to get together. We still aren’t a normal couple, I have wings and a tail and he’s a vampire.
Agatha tells me she has to get ready for brunch and that she will call me later in the week. I make it to the shop and manage not to forget the sour cream which I came in for. I also grab some salt and vinegar crisps for Baz.
Agatha
Only Simon Snow would end up with a boy with the same name as his arch-nemesis. I am sure he will be a fun plus one at the Watford reunion. “Baz, meet Baz” I laugh at the mental image.
I wonder if they will let Simon attend the reunion now that he’s a Normal. I’m sure Professor Bunce will allow it. He did save the World of Mages, even if he was the one destroying it, and Penelope would probably start some sort of protest if he wasn’t allowed. I wonder if he would even want to go back, I certainly won’t be there. Even if Simon’s love life makes it incredibly funny
