Second Hex-[Action]

[hisdarkmark]

[Today Draco's at the edge of town, dressed in his Hogwarts uniform minus the robes and probably the sweater/vest, which is sitting on the ground neatly folded up. He doesn't seem to be too bothered by the heat as he appears to be holding his wand and casting a few spells. He's testing what the powercap limits him to mostly. Considering the fact that apparently there are a lot of people with magical ability here, he doesn't feel the need to hide his powers since they're obviously superior. Feel free to come fourth-wall bother him]

And what do you do around here?

[tionysus.livejournal.com]

Most of the time, I'm taking care of my friends at our house. Every once in a while I unleash myself upon the unsuspecting populace and socialize.

[hisdarkmark]

You have friends here? From your own home?

[tionysus.livejournal.com]

Well, not from my home planet, but people I know.

[hisdarkmark]

That's common, isn't it? To have other people you know end up here as well. [i.e. "How the hell did I end up by myself here?"]

[tionysus.livejournal.com]

Most of the people I know are like that, but it's not an exact thing. It doesn't all happen at once, either. You may never see someone you know for as long as you're here, or someone could show up in a few months. I think it's mostly a matter of luck.

[hisdarkmark]

And I suppose that also means you don't get a say in who does and doesn't arrive here.

[tionysus.livejournal.com]

[A bit of a sore spot for her.] Or when they come from.

[hisdarkmark]

[That's the part that truly has him worried] Lovely.

[tionysus.livejournal.com]

[You poor thing.] It's best not to worry about it too much. It may end up that you'll get all worked up for nothing.

[hisdarkmark]

Who said I was getting myself worked up? [The wand's not pointed at her, but the expression's probably similar]

[tionysus.livejournal.com]

That says enough right there. It's unusually snippy for casual conversation.

[hisdarkmark]

...[Well. She's got a point.] I have no idea what you're talking about.

[tionysus.livejournal.com]

[You are a very easy read, Dragon Boy. Just like your books. But she'll be nice and change the subject for now, since he doesn't want to talk about what's bothering him so much.] What do you like to do to relax, anyway?

[hisdarkmark]

[Let him think that he's blocking you, Myuria. He's already been fourthwalled enough today to confuse him] Relax? [That...is a good question. He'll pause for a moment while he thinks about this] Train I guess. If I'm at home, I'll wander the Manor's gardens. [In other words, I don't relax apparently]

[tionysus.livejournal.com]

[She hasn't read the books herself though her mun has been tearing through them again, but she thinks he's too frazzled for his own good. Frazzling him more isn't going to help.] Come now, you're still young! You don't go out with your friends much?

[hisdarkmark]

[Good call. and good Sol, reading is magic! /shot Although these questions are really starting to make him think about his priorities and just what he's been doing with his whole life. Crabbe and Goyle...they weren't so much friends as they were lackeys...and Pansy was, well, Pansy. But they did go out together sometimes. That should count, shouldn't it? Hogsmeade, they've taken trips there. And sometimes Theodore Nott would visit the Manor.] Not much, but enough at least.

[tionysus.livejournal.com]

[Thinking is good! Myuria thinks Luceti's been a good place to do some thinking. She's certainly done a lot of it herself.]

Maybe you should get out a little more while you're here. There's not as much to do, but it's better than training all the time.

[hisdarkmark]

If it's worth my time, I guess it wouldn't be a bad idea. [But...there's a breakthrough because Draco's actually pocketing his wand, along with his hands]

[tionysus.livejournal.com]

[She just smiles. Thatta boy.] Having fun is certainly worth your time, I'd say. If those bastards want to keep us like caged lab rats, why not get the most out of it? There's still the chance to live a little.

[hisdarkmark]

[Maaaaybe there's a little bit of a smile in return, just testing it] We'll see about that. Perhaps I'll take a closer look at the shops here and see what's available. [Granted, he may not exactly be nice to all of the people in said shops, but baby-steps]

[tionysus.livejournal.com]

[She'll wink. It's good to see him ease up, even just a little bit.] So we will.

There's a library too, but it's pretty haphazard. I can't say it's the most interesting place, but there's enough to keep on busy if they look in the right places.

[hisdarkmark]

[You are by-far the most flirty well-endowed interesting person he's met here, honestly]

Then perhaps that's where I'll start. Libraries aren't my favorite place, but they can be enjoyable if the books are interesting.

[tionysus.livejournal.com]

[Myuria likes any compliment she can get, really. Plus, she thinks he needed a friend.]

Reading isn't exactly my favorite hobby, but it's good for passing the time. If you're ever that bored, you could stop by House 25 and say hello.

[hisdarkmark]

[Oh he probably does. It's rare that people tolerate him long enough]

House 25? The house you share with the other people?
