Outside the danger room, 7th period

[lovechildblair.livejournal.com]

It was Wednesday so Blair was outside of the danger room holding a sign. After talking to John yesterday and finding out about what he was planning to do this weekend, Blair had gone back to his first sign. Only with a few edits so it now read, 'Winchester = Murder'.

Peter raised an eyebrow.

"Well, it could be." Blair mumbled.

Peter looked down then back up at Blair. "They're trying to help. To do the best they can do and live honourably. It's a hard and dangerous enough task without being accused of murder by another who is trying to live honourably."

"...I decided not to chain myself to their car." Blair knew that Peter was right. "I'm not stopping them from doing what they're going to do, I'm just trying to make them see that it's not a good idea."

"Hurling isn't really going to help that cause," Peter said. "Not to mention that you are calling many of the rest of your classmates murderers."

"Only the ones named Winchester." Blair looked up at his sign.

"Not that we don't know why you're calling them that," Peter replied. "And every one of us who've fought evil creatures is tarred by the same brush - myself, Bel, Willow, Walter, Nadia, everyone who's defended the school." He shrugged. "It doesn't mean that I shan't do the same, but I don't particularly feel happy that someone I tend to respect looks at me with that disdain."

"Awww, man." Blair frowned and wondered why chaining himself to an oil derrick never was this hard. "I don't look at you that way it's just...this isn't their fight! They're jumping into the middle of someone else's battle."

Peter would have pointed out that the oil derrick didn't talk back, but he didn't know Blair's thoughts. He shrugged. "I'm a...I'm a knight. I'm sworn to protect those who can't protect themselves. I also lived through the Blitz when the US wouldn't help fight Germany because it was 'someone else's battle.' I don't believe it should matter if you can help."

"But as a knight it's your job, man." Blair said.

"I...I don't really have a response to the other thing. To me that war happened a long time ago so it's been something to study, and I don't want to be offensive to people like you and Walter who come from that time."
