That’s because I see no reason to treat you with anything but respect. Though I must admit, it always pays to act.
Just a place to relax? Come now. You must surely have more inventive designs for the place - spell practice, unseemly liasons? [Studies her, his voice light, a hint of jest in his eyes] Glad to hear it. Perhaps I will have the pleasure of your company, when I least expect it.
Well, thank you? And acting? I know it is always helpful to act but aren’t acting and pretending the same thing? If everyone always acted then we wouldn’t know who they really were on the inside..
*raises her eyebrows, pretending to be shocked before she chuckles* Well, you got my motives correctly *smirks and nods her head* I’m definitely going for the unseemly liaisons… You know me after all…. No, I wouldn’t do such a thing. Perhaps you will, it would be nice.
myownpride:
What did you need that caused you a problem? If you don’t mind me asking, of course.


Of course not! I don’t mind at all, Andie.
It was Shrivelfig. Slughorn hid it from its usual place in the Potions Cupboard. *chuckles* I was making some Elixir to Induce Euphoria because Slughorn asked me to make some for class. I don’t really know why Slughorn wanted me to make it.
Hi there! I’m Annabel Brown but call me Anna. Pleasure to meet you!

Hello Agatha, haven’t seen you in a while… How are you?
lestrange-rabastan:
Gentleman. [Quiet chuckle, slipping his fingers away as she stands] Plenty of people would disagree with that statement.

[Leads her towards the courtyard] So tell me, what do you intend to do with your secret places? [Glances across, wryly] I’ll expect you to share, should we ever find ourselves desiring the same spot.

Well, you’ve acted like a gentleman in front of me.
*walks with him out to the courtyard & smiles at his question* What do I intend to do? I don’t know, I just want a place to relax and to hide away from silly drama and Slughorn. Of course, I’ll share it. Your showing me the place after all and it would be wrong for me not to share with you…

Oh, I see. Well, I’m glad someone is. I thought that perhaps I was the only one!
*chuckles* Buried in the draw? Oh that’s a perfect place for them. I wish I could do that but Slughorn keeps finding me somehow and dumps more work onto my plate. *pouts before she begins to grin more* Perfect! I’m glad to hear that- perhaps you could pass some of your hiding wisdom on to me. You know what, I’d like that a lot. That would be absolutely wonderful.
Enthusiastic, aren’t you? [His eyes trail her grin, his own lips inching into a smirk. Slowly stands, extending a hand to help her to her feet] What kind of place would you prefer? Indoors or out, dark or light?

Of course, I am! I find its better to be enthusiastic. *grins at him as she takes his hand and gets on to her feet* What a gentleman! Hmm, all of them? I think that probably outdoors would be useful to know but what if its raining? Let’s go to the outdoors one first please, Rab.
lestrange-rabastan:
[Quirks a brow] There is. I’m observant. It pays to notice subtleties.
Hm. Slughorn’s assignments are currently buried in a drawer, where I can’t see them. I have no inclination to attempt the wretched things. [Quiet laugh, a glint in his eyes] Hiding is my speciality. I’ll show you a few places if you wish.
Oh, I see. Well, I’m glad someone is. I thought that perhaps I was the only one!

lestrange-rabastan:
My mood is tolerable, thank you. [Faintly smirks] You usually smile. But smiling does not always equate with happiness. There is merely something different in your expression today.
Oh, you know… the usual. Avoiding meaningful study like the plague, as well as unwanted company. Why? Have you found some interesting way to fill your days?

Well that’s good to hear. Tolerable moods are always better than furious ones. *laughs and meets his eyes* Oh there is? Well, I’m surprised that someone would actually notice that- thanks. Hmm, I think its because I was able to go to Hogsmeade for a little while.
Avoiding study like the plague and unwanted company? Sounds like a handful. Oh, I was just wondering what you had been up to because I haven’t been up to much actually thanks to Slughorn. He’s been piling books up on my desks again and I have a huge pile right now so I think I may need to go into hiding to avoid him so I can have some fun! Know any good hiding places?
Morbidly well. [Sits, lightly quirking his brow] And yourself? I must say, you seem unusually happy.

Well that’s good to hear and you seem to be in a good mood as well? *smiles* Unusually happy? How so? I thought I usually appeared happy. I guess I’m excited to just relax and have less homework. What have you been up to?
snaps-the-snitch:
Andie? -frowns- Oh Andromeda Black, right? Yeah, seems like family issues are a pattern among us. Well, I guess most teenagers have to go through it.


Oh yes, Andromeda Black. Yes, it does appear to be so. Yes, sadly, I think most people have to go through it. I wish no one had to go through it.
