Seahorse Campfire [Wednesday Evening]

It's been a good day.

He's been having a few of those lately and he's not one to ignore good days. He knows they can evaporate quickly and without warning.

So, he's enjoying the warm day outside. There's a cup of tea near his elbow and a smile on his face.

[Hey, open post!]

"Not as far as I know, but I was only there for four years," she says, considering this.

[chasingsnitches.livejournal.com]

"Ah. So, what do you think?"

[smartestone]

"Of Special Collections? Interesting," she says. "It has a better selection than the rest of the library, but the downside of having the walls trying to crush us."

[chasingsnitches.livejournal.com]

"No, not of Special Collections," he says. "Fandom High. As compared to Hogwarts."

[smartestone]

"Oh," she says, visibly shaking her head a little to get herself off the subject of the library. "I like it, actually. There are some differences, but not enough to make it uncomfortable. Do you like it here?"

[chasingsnitches.livejournal.com]

"I do," he answers simply. "It's...different, of course. But, thus far, I've found the difference enjoyable and challenging."

[smartestone]

"I'm not used to being able to tell Muggles anthing about Hogwarts," she says thoughfully. "They don't even find it strange. Of course, that might be because Rita Skeeter was turning students into animals for a while before we got here..."

"Yes, I was actually reluctant to reveal anything about Hogwarts until hearing of some of the odd things that have occurred," he says. "Some people, though, have enjoyed hearing about Hogwarts and magic."

[smartestone]

"Like who?" she asks. "Maybe we're talking to the same people."

[chasingsnitches.livejournal.com]

"Oh, several people," he says vaguely. "Some people in my cabin, some people from the fourth floor. Anyone specific you think we've both been talking to?"

[smartestone]

"Mostly Willow," she says. "Have you met her yet?"

[chasingsnitches.livejournal.com]

"I have," he answers. "She borrowed one of my ties!"

[smartestone]

She smiles. "Why?" she asks.

[chasingsnitches.livejournal.com]

"Because I put wore her lip gloss in the common room," he says. "I agreed to do that and she agreed to wear one of my ties."

[smartestone]

The smile grows wider. "You wore her lip gloss? Again, I think I have to ask why."

[chasingsnitches.livejournal.com]

"I don't know, actually. It seemed like something new and interesting to try?" He shrugs but one corner of his mouth lifts in a smile.

[smartestone]

"You may be in trouble if you ever meet Buffy," she warns.

[chasingsnitches.livejournal.com]

"Buffy?" He frowns, trying to remember if he'd met her thus far. "She might've been in our cabin the other night. Jaye gathered quite the crowd for the event she'd planned."

[smartestone]

"I heard that on the radio," she says, not saying anything else about it. "I'm assuming she didn't try to give anyone a makeover there."

[chasingsnitches.livejournal.com]

"Not that I'm aware of," he says, shaking his head. "Though, I didn't meet her and went to bed fairly early so, I suppose she might've given a makeover after that."

[smartestone]

"If she did, I'm sure the truth will come out eventually," she says, joining him in the headshaking.

[chasingsnitches.livejournal.com]

"You should've come by, Hermione." He grins at her. "You might've had fun."

[smartestone]

"I don't think I would have exactly fit in there," she says, and her eyes are a little wide at the suggestion.

[chasingsnitches.livejournal.com]

"Why not?" He frowns and takes a sip of his tea. "It's just like any cabin."

[smartestone]

Diplomatically, she says, "I'm usually the one in the Gryffindor common room telling everyone to be quiet." She pauses. "Not that it works."
