Thirty-Ninth Hex - [Written]

[As usual, Draco has once again gone and made himself scarce from a majority of the village as he works out more of his inner dilemmas. First and foremost, there's Hermione. She's most definitely, definitely not the same Hermione and it's freaking him out.

Secondly, he's officially given up on searching for Caroline Forbes. After running into other vampires...it's safe to say the blonde will never show up again.

And thirdly...? Even with his power, even with his abilities to turn into a coyote or produce patronuses or blow things up, he's finding it isn't enough to make him happy.

Recently he's returned from a mission, but he couldn't help but constantly think about the last experiment. He'd been convinced he was someone else, and he had absolutely no memories of who he really was...and it was nice. He was able to function like a normal human being again. Normally, he would make an elaborate announcement about his return, but this time...well, he's already pieced together what's happened in the village, and he's not sorry he's missed the tornado. No, instead he's entirely focused on what he's determined to find out. When he opens his journal, he's only got one sentence he'd like to share.]

What do you reckon it takes to bargain with our captors to permanently erase memories? Just curious.

[...ew. No. No burnt toast. What do you take him for, Tsuzuki? He has refined taste :|] ...what temple?

[His wings perk up, both because he can have his toast and because unlike other subjects, this one is safe.] There's been built a small Japanese temple. Since you've never been to Japan I thought you might want to see.

...sure. [He's not sure why he's inclined to say yes, but he is a bit curious.] Where is it?

I can lead the way.

[Curiosity will be the end of you, Draco.]

The priestess at the temple is another psychic. Just a warning.

Psychic like...how, precisely?

She does readings. I don't think she's like Hisoka level-psychic.

I've a feeling that if Hisoka can't penetrate my mind, neither can she. Who is she anyway?

She's a priestess from Japan. I can introduce you to her, if you'd like.

Couldn't hurt, I've met enough of your type as it is.

"My type"?

The Japanese, Tsuzuki.

Oh, that type.

I bet you haven't met as many as me.

That's a completely unfair advantage though, considering. That's like saying I bet you've never met as many Brits as I have.

Or wizards. I haven't met a lot of them either, aside from your friends.

What, there aren't any dead wizards wandering around where you two are from?

We don't all them that. They're just people with high spiritual power.

...what's the difference?

[...]

They don't have wands. Other than that, they're pretty similar.

Then how do they channel their magic?

Chanting works. And rice paper spells.

You use the rice paper, right? I remember that...from...when I was a ferret.

Yes. They're really practical.

[Should he mention it or should he not. Hmm.]

What was it like being a ferret?

Awful. It was terrible, and the fact that I've now had that experience twice is something I can't say I'm happy about.

I only knew you had been a ferret once.

[Pointed, amused look. Are you holding out on him?]

...someone posing as a professor at our school my fourth year did it first.
