I'm the half-breed, Robert!

I'll always be the half-breed, that's how everyone will think of me, I went to Carla, and she, do you know what she said to me?

[She pauses, and rubs her face with the heel of her hand]

That you like that you're disgusted by me.
goodboysgood: (NARROW)

[Now his hands go up in defence, but he doesn't move away. Doesn't move at all. Really, he's a little bit stunned.]

I don't even think of you as that.

[He says it softly. And that point's already been proven but still, bad wording.]

I mean, it doesn't matter. I'm not. How could I like - that doesn't make any sense.

[Carla. Carla Morir. When he recovers enough to get angry he'll remember that.]

[She's quiet for a moment.]

It's meant to be an insult.

It's meant to insult us both.
goodboysgood: (DENIED)

[And he can see where it comes from and how it works. Satya knows better than most people that Chase still harbours a feeling of being second best, a feeling that he failed to get in where he should have. Slytherin, the house that keeps anyone like her out.

Would she really have found him if he wore green? And would he have looked twice at her.]


I can tell you who I'm disgusted by.

[Finally capable of movement, he reaches for her.]

And I'm not planning to ask her out.
instars: (Saya - whispering)

[personal profile] instars 2013-11-19 06:03 am (UTC)(link)
[She doesn't want to think about it. This kind of thing doesn't wear so quickly at her self-confidence, she's usually more sturdy than this, but once in a while-

She moves into his arms, slowly at first, then presses her face into his shoulder]


I'm not selfless enough to tell you that you aren't going to want to deal with this, that you should find a pureblooded girl and ask her out instead.

Because I would blind her and spell her teeth away.
goodboysgood: (INVOLVED)

There's nothing wrong with your blood. I prefer it to mine. [Though his is simmering to a boil, and he grips her tight around the waist.]

And I may take that suggestion and apply it elsewhere.
instars: (Saya - blush)

[personal profile] instars 2013-11-19 06:17 am (UTC)(link)
I know that.

[She takes another moment, and presses a kiss to his mouth, and then another one]

Listen, listen, I'm all right. But do you mind if we wait a little bit? Before we go down? So my face isn't so red.
goodboysgood: (PUPPY)

[personal profile] goodboysgood 2013-11-19 06:21 am (UTC)(link)
We don't have to go at all, I've done the rounds. [He catches both hands and pulls her lightly with him, answering the tower's riddle as he pushes backwards through the door to the steps.] Come and sit down here a minute.
instars: (Saya - observant)

[personal profile] instars 2013-11-19 06:23 am (UTC)(link)
Are you sure-

[But she's going up with him, letting him lead her, her hands warm in his]
goodboysgood: (PUPPY)

[personal profile] goodboysgood 2013-11-19 06:25 am (UTC)(link)
I don't particularly feel like playing nice with people anymore.

[They can sit on the steps, there's a breeze. After a minute:]

We could swap, you know.
instars: (Saya - back)

[personal profile] instars 2013-11-19 06:26 am (UTC)(link)
[She sits closer to him-]

What do you mean?
goodboysgood: (INVOLVED)

[personal profile] goodboysgood 2013-11-19 06:29 am (UTC)(link)
It's a... sort of game. Something you do to show someone's important, when you're little.

[He splays a hand out across his knee.]

I'd cut my palm, you'd cut yours.
instars: (Saya - watching)

[personal profile] instars 2013-11-19 06:30 am (UTC)(link)
I think we've swapped fluids a bit more interesting than blood.

[But she offers him her hand.]
goodboysgood: (HOOKED)

[personal profile] goodboysgood 2013-11-19 06:32 am (UTC)(link)
[This blushing thing could become a problem. But he sets it off with a grin, patting down pockets for something sharp.]

One more can't hurt.
instars: (instars - eyes)

[personal profile] instars 2013-11-19 06:34 am (UTC)(link)
[She reaches into her pocket and pulls out a pocket knife - a small one, just a sheath and a blade]

Here. I use it to sharpen my quills.
goodboysgood: (NARROW)

[personal profile] goodboysgood 2013-11-19 06:39 am (UTC)(link)
[And when he said it can't hurt.... he frowns at the knife for a second, then nods, closing his palm around the blade. Which is the wrong thing to to, it takes a couple of quick drags against the slackened skin to do it, but he's bleeding.]

Mind you don't get caught with it.

[And he offers it back.]
instars: (Saya - unsure)

[personal profile] instars 2013-11-19 06:41 am (UTC)(link)
I know better than to get caught with a knife.

[She cuts her skin, palm open, and sets it down.]
goodboysgood: (INVOLVED)

[personal profile] goodboysgood 2013-11-19 10:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Anyway, you're far more dangerous with a wand.

[He reaches for her hand and squeezes it before pressing their palms flat together.]

Feels like there should be an incantation, doesn't there. Blood magic.

[Now, they'd really get in trouble for that.]
instars: (Saya - whispering)

[personal profile] instars 2013-11-19 10:37 pm (UTC)(link)
The only one I know who knows blood magic is that crazy Irish pureblood girl.

[But it's magic all the same. She holds his hand tight]
goodboysgood: (INVOLVED)

[personal profile] goodboysgood 2013-11-19 10:44 pm (UTC)(link)
[Chase is aware of the crazy Irish girl, and has a feeling she knows a good deal more than that. Better not to ask.]

There. Insult your blood and they're insulting mine.
instars: (Saya - observant)

[personal profile] instars 2013-11-19 10:47 pm (UTC)(link)
[She takes her wand from her pocket and casts a whispered spell to heal it, and then leans in and kisses him, once, twice, again]

Sometimes I think I dream you.
goodboysgood: (TEASE)

[personal profile] goodboysgood 2013-11-19 10:55 pm (UTC)(link)
What a sentimental thing to say.

[It's not a reproach, it's stupidly fond. Because sentimentality isn't something that, even now, tends to take usual forms for them. He lets his hand bleed into his robe for kissing her.]

You're not, though. My hand's throbbing too much to have dreamt it.
instars: (Saya - back)

[personal profile] instars 2013-11-19 10:58 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm allowed to say sentimental things, once in a while.

[She reaches for his hand, to heal that, too.]

We should go to Australia.
goodboysgood: (AMUSE)

[personal profile] goodboysgood 2013-11-19 11:01 pm (UTC)(link)
As long as I'm allowed to like them. I love you. It's better than dreams, dreams aren't true.

[He could have done it for himself, of course, but there's one bad habit. He tends to keep himself away from the healer's rooms even when nursing injury, let alone try anything himself.]

Now? [It's teasing, his eyes wide.] I didn't realise you wanted to fly quite so far.
instars: (Saya - watching)

[personal profile] instars 2013-11-19 11:10 pm (UTC)(link)
[She kisses him at the proclamation of love, blushing just a bit]

No, at Christmas. Tell your father you're staying here. We can take a portkey, or apparate-
