Third Floor Common Room: Afternoon

[isourking.livejournal.com]

In between bites from a giant sized bowl of Chocolate Frosted Sugar Bombs, Ron would be seen smashing the keypad of the remote in an effort to find something decent to watch.

Eventually he settled on the BBC and watched in horror as two British women attempted to clean what had to be the most disgustingly dirty house he had ever seen.

"Bloody hell. That's actually someone's carpet?"

Perhaps eating food while watching this show was a bad idea.

"Where your 'sneezing' decides to put you?"

That's a new one.

[blinkandsneeze.livejournal.com]

"It happens," she said. "I'll be going somewhere, I'll sneeze, and then I'll be somewhere completely different."

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

"...how does that work, exactly?"

The whole concept was baffling.

[blinkandsneeze.livejournal.com]

She shrugged a little.

"...it just does?"

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

"I fly a broom. It uses magic. Is that how you do what you do?"

[blinkandsneeze.livejournal.com]

"Maybe," Viki said cheerfully. "I suppose it is magic, really, but it does just happen if I'm not paying attention. Other than that, if I am, I'm a teleportation specialist."

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

"I used to have magic happen while I was asleep," he admitted.

"But how did you become a teleportation specialist?"

[blinkandsneeze.livejournal.com]

"I don't remember," Viki said vaguely. "I mean, I think it's just one of those things like my hair that stays a part of me no matter where or when I end up."

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

"A talent?"

That made more sense than being a specialist who had the kind of problem she'd mentioned. At least, to him.

[blinkandsneeze.livejournal.com]

"I just always remember being able to do it," she said. "I don't know anything else, sorry."

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

He shook his head.

"You don't have to explain yourself to me. I'm the last person anyone has to answer.

"I was just curious."

[blinkandsneeze.livejournal.com]

"I don't mind," she told him. "...I don't suppose I told you my name? It's Viki, if I haven't already forgotten telling you once."

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

"Liir. I almost never mention it."

He offered a hand for a shake.

[blinkandsneeze.livejournal.com]

She went to shake his hand saying earnestly, "I might forget it, but I'll try not to."

Viki had an epically bad memory. And that was putting it lightly.

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

"Don't worry about it if you do. I answer to 'boy' pretty well."

[blinkandsneeze.livejournal.com]

"There are a lot of boys here though," she mused idly. "It might get bothersome if all of them will answer to 'boy'."

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

"Just not broomboy," he said with a grin.

[blinkandsneeze.livejournal.com]

That got a laugh. "Should I remember that one then?"

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

He rolled his eyes and shook his head.

"No, oh, please. Not that."

The badger had called him that as they'd gone.

[blinkandsneeze.livejournal.com]

She just laughed again.

"It might, possibly, slip out."

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

"Maybe I mentioned it so you'd have something to call me even if you couldn't remember my name?" he asked with a brief chuckles.

[blinkandsneeze.livejournal.com]

"Then I'm much obliged to you." She grinned. "Because it's a real possibility."

[new-to-liirness.livejournal.com]

"I've been called worse than broomboy," he said with a smile right back at her.
