"I was warming them on your abs" She shrugged flexing her fingers in his grasp with a smile

I just try to be honest and fair as much as I can, specially when it comes to you, it’s the bare minimum — he whispers, gently taking hold of her hands to warm them up— you’re freezing, love

"You just are so naturally sweet. Like everything you say is second nature" She hummed her fingertips brushing just unde rhis shirt to warm a bit

How so?— he dares ask, not missing the chance to snake his arms around her middle just so he can drag her closer to the warmth of his body— such an affirmation deserves elaboration

She only ceases the kissing when she needs a moment to catch her breath, forehead staying pressed against his. "You are an enigma." She hummed quietly. He was also the only person she truly gave the courtesy of not looking into his mind which she was sure would give her such a clearer picture.

There’s a gasp, ripped from him only out of surprise at her actions, which does not mean he is not following her steps and kissing back with just as much intention. It’s not like he needs a reason to engage in such action.

She lets the papers be forgotten on the ground beside her for a moment as she pulls him closer to her to press their lips together because really the only thoughts in her head are how in love she is.

—Is everything alright, love?— he asks, gently waving his hand in front of her eyes, a complete stranger to all the thoughts crossing through her mind at the very moment

She's trying, rather unsucessfully, not to smile like an idiot. He had a way of saying the nicest things so nonchalantly. It was just nature to him to say hed follow her wherever she went. Most wouldnt phase it in such a way. She put her papers down to really look at him, eyes just gazing.

Well, it is something I have been thinking about, and it all comes down to balance and to focusing on the important bits. - he nods— ideally I’ll follow wherever you go, but I’m not going to ignore the existence of apparitions, floo powder and keyports

Shes in thought for a moment before nodding. Some tightness in her chest releasing "Good answer" She snorted giving a soft grin before looking back at her papers. She was trying to convince the ministry to let her train others to see like her. If there were more working for them...well .1.

I’ll try— he nods— it all comes down to what we decide to do, although even if I stayed here to purchase higher education instead of doing the same away, I would find a way to visit you- there’s a pause, it’s him flicking his nose in thought— what I’m trying to say, is that whatever comes, you can+

She lets the touch of his lips linger a moment before glancing at him "Will you come with me? If i get the funding?" She hadnt asked. His presence was wanted but never needed and if her dreams were that deciding factor then..

—You will do amazing, we know that— he nods, taking a second to kiss the top of her head, as if it sealed his words into the strings of her fate

She's smoothing the parchment and flipping through it to ensure its all in order "No not when a man has a girlfriend who has a huge meeting tomorrow that determines her post school trajectory"

He purrs, letting her take the papers away before turning back to his usual form. — A man can’t enjoy being fluffy no more— he jokes

Okay okay quit (Shes mumbling trying to gently opening his mouth to get her papers) You know it would be nice to see you as you for once.

He can and he is, along with her hand now (he is not actually making any pressure, he is just nibbling softly )

No Alixxxxx (Shes groaning resching dor the papers in a panic) Im trying to get a grant from them to go study abroad you cant just...eat it

— he is nibbling on it—

You! Did you take my research??

HARRY POTTER@cursedscar.bsky.social · 2mo ago

If he has time. She knows theyre all terribly busy right now

oh gosh, he can help her find them, if she wants?

HARRY POTTER@cursedscar.bsky.social · 2mo ago

Every. Single. Piece. It was all sitting right on her desk.

HARRY POTTER@cursedscar.bsky.social · 2mo ago

She has a proposal to introduce to the ministry tomorrow and all her research is missing

Is she … okay?

@hethespawn.bsky.social She's sending an owl with a note to him. 🦉 Would you want to go on a trip with me when school ends?

The brunette is hanging around his office, shifting her weight between her feet as she decides if shed like to continue her plan here.

#TheDivine♡ Sorry ive been MIA it was my birthday but im sick and back now

Theres the crack she was looking for, however small it seems. "Hmm..alright then. Im heading to the kitchens I wanted to bake brownies today..cookies if i have time. Feel free to join, i dont talk much when Im busy"

he stays quiet. he does but he doesn’t. how weak that would it make him to open up to someone. he may aswell go home to his father with disappointment on his head.

The confliction on her face is the internal battle she has almost daily. She /could/ pop into his mind and see herself but it was such an invasion of privacy. Does she think somethings wrong and its warranted? Eventually she decides against it and gives a shrug "I would. If you want to share"

what isn’t in his head is the better question? he is consumed by morbid curiousity and death. all he wants to do is hurt something, scream and cry—- but it’s wrong and he feels guilt for things more than he’d let someone know. “wouldn’t you like to know?”

"Fine" She puts her hands up in defensive though she knows what anger looks like "You arent angry..but you arent happy so what is in your head?" She has a soft spot for the younger ones. Technically an adult now she feels some sort of duty to them.

“i am not angry!” he didn’t really mean to outburst. he just doesn’t know how to speak about these things. he tries hard to be tough, but he’s not. he’s just a child.

Yes, of course its the truth [Minus the whole wanting to kiss his face off bit]

ofcourse.

She would be one to understand. A pawn in a game just on the opposing side of him. A child manipulated to choose the path that was already laid out for her. "You are angry. That face your making is a face of anger. What is the matter?"
