[dogbane]

Hes got a way of bringing that out in people, looks like.

whyd you have to put executions and sentences in his theoretical red head

[fullmoon]

He asked. He knows when we're lying. I wanted him to keep talking.
But I don't think my standards for betrayal are the same as his.

[dogbane]

I wager youre probably right. he's a right cunt.

should I know about these standards?

[fullmoon]

Sneaking garlic & holy water into my food.

[fullmoon]

[ But okay. In the interest of looking less bloodthirsty than he probably does over there. Behold: an honest answer. ]

Unless you're planning to kill everyone I love & a dozen innocent bystanders, you're probably fine.

[dogbane]

errrr

well I can safely say no planning was involved the other month :[




in all seriousness though I'm sorry mate. Smiley ought to piss off

[fullmoon]

[ He doesn't know what to do with sorry and immediately regrets having said anything at all, so there's a decently lengthy pause before he carries on without acknowledging it. ]

You realise no one blames you for that, don't you?
No one with any sense.

[dogbane]

[Oh i didnt mean to turn this into no no, William backspaces through that. Surely there's something useful he can do with this. (It does not occur to him immediately that Remus is operating exactly the same way.)]

I guess 'blame' is kind of a loaded word

but 'no one with any sense' seems a bit much too dont you think

[fullmoon]

No. You didn't mean to.

1/2

[dogbane]

No

I didn't but I could have thought it through some more. been more careful. talked to people about what was going on, even if it didnt seem like much.

Guess I aint really in that habit

2/2

[dogbane]

[He dangles that note of contrition for a moment before losing any kind of real certainty that that's helpful or working.

is this just being depressing??? best to liven it up a bit.]

guess thats why we get along isnt it :]

[fullmoon]

I don't know what you're talking about. I'm very forthcoming.



It isn't too late to start talking to people, if you haven't.
Other people. Not me.
I'd hate to ruin our getting-along.

[dogbane]

Ive got people. Ive got Heather, we're just not quite that. we're everything else I reckon



S.B.'s privvy to boggart-level shit then?

[fullmoon]

What about Severus?



Sure. I tell him everything.
Or else he guesses.
He's very clever.

[dogbane]

We arent like that either. but he'll help me whenever always even though he doesnt like me.

[It doesn't seem so sad anymore. Hell, sometimes-- and this is one of those times-- doesn't seem anything particular, so it must be fine.]

That's cute

I think hes mostly straight though I mean its none of my fuckin business i have that feeling

if I had to assign a number id pick 99%

[js]

[fullmoon]

That's something, I suppose.
He wouldn't help you if he didn't like you at least a little.

[ Wolfsbane doesn't count. ]

I know he's straight. It's not like that.
He's been one of my best mates since I was 11.
& I don't usually go for blokes anyway.

[dogbane]

I think he likes peoplekind a little. he feels responsible for us at any rate and it seems much more important than enjoying any of it.

[Wolfsbane counts.]

Well itd be bloody obnoxious to argue about that wouldnt it and im never obnoxious

[fullmoon]

I think he knows he's got a lot to make up for.

[ DOESN'T. ]

Never.

[dogbane]

[OK maybe it doesn't. Which may or may not be exacerbated if Remus answers such questions as:]

What do you mean?

[fullmoon]

Nothing.

[ Hahaha did you think he was going to give away two pieces of honest information in a single conversation? ]

Or something, obviously, but I shouldn't have said anything.
He's doing well here.
He can tell you about the rest of it if he likes.

[dogbane]

I SUPPOSE.

Would you feel bad about telling me?

is that why you arent

guilt

[fullmoon]

Charity.

[dogbane]

Ordinarily id make that about me but Ill swing it

I feel like my life would be a much less celibate place with less of this fucking wizard drama

[you can say anything when you've got no soul]

[fullmoon]

[ That at least earns a pause. ]

Probably.

[dogbane]

well id hope so. ive used up all my best fucking material.

[best fucking material get it :D





oh wait that was a pause wasn't it.


hmm.






uhhhm. He should

uhhhhhhhh]

Shit a patient came in gotta go hero you know
