Draco Campfire, Monday Morning

[shyest-eyes.livejournal.com]

Hinata, despite the fact that she had to live now with seven other people, was feeling more at ease. Yes, this wasn’t quite the same as mission back home, but a campfire at least held more than enough good memories of Kiba, of Shino, of Kurenai-sensei, that she didn’t feel quite so adrift at being here.

And Ino-san was around, that helped too. A familiar face, one that had always been kind enough to her.

She started a fire then sat close to it, feeding it twigs and thought about maybe, maybe going exploring later that day.

[Open as a campfire is!]

That got a long considering--if still somewhat timid--glance from her.

"D-do you have the gift?"

Seregil smiled a little. "Yes and no. I do seem to, but it... doesn't work right."

"I-it's broken?"

"Something like that. It's like... I'm allergic to it or something."

"You're allergic to yourself?" That got a tiny frown.

"Not to myself. But... when I attempt a spell it rarely if ever goes the way it's supposed to. And if certain spells are cast on me, I tend to get very ill."

"Do you get spells cast on you often?" Hinata asked. "Must they be renewed?"

[therhimineecat.livejournal.com]

"Often enough," Seregil said with a sly smile. "I sometimes have to travel by portals or there's some shapechanging needed..."

"A-ano," she said, taking the smile into account, "I d-don't think you said what it is y-you do back home."
