@ somarium, regarding the upcoming new moon event

[spaztastic]

I'm starting to think I'm born under an unlucky star or something. You don't think it's a coincidence that awful things always happen when my birthday's around the corner, mun?

I mean, it's the second time! Second time it's gonna happen!

[Shiki may not be looking forward to it but the mun is gleefully counting the days, plotting... cackling evilly for effect >D]

[S I G H] Of course you would be enjoying this. I shouldn't even be surprised anymore...

[alphaophiuchi]

Well, darling, it's either that or you're a complete trouble-magnet. I wouldn't doubt either.

[spaztastic]

HEY!

[/Smacks shoulder B|

Nice seeing you too, honey...]

Am not!

[alphaophiuchi]

[...ow.]</small. Well, you do have to admit.

[spaztastic]

You're making it sound like I'm some kind of jinx!

[alphaophiuchi]

Not a jinx, per se.

But really, I was there for three years, started dating you, and then went home. [shruuuug. Your luck, Shiki. What is it.]

[spaztastic]

So... date me and just as soon I start to care, they leave.

[Yeaaah, hit below the belt right there.]

[Bitter chuckle.] Story of my life right there.

[alphaophiuchi]

I was quite content being there, for what it's worth. It wasn't like I wanted to leave.

[spaztastic]

[She sighs, happy and relieved that he was content. Shiki reaches over and takes his hand into hers, lacing their fingers together.]

Thanks Draco.

[alphaophiuchi]

[he gives her hand a little squeeze, lifting it so he can brush a kiss to her knuckles.]

Think nothing of it. You're doing well there anyway? Besides the obvious?

[spaztastic]

Mm. [she nods, returning the squeeze.] I'll be fine.

[She steps forward, leaning her head on his shoulder.] I'm going to be.

[alphaophiuchi]

You're certain? I don't need to hex anyone, do I?

[spaztastic]

Mm. [She chuckles, shaking her head.] No, you don't need to. I'll be fine.

[alphaophiuchi]

I think I'd rather like to hex someone anyway.

[spaztastic]

[She looks up at him, quirking an eyebrow.]

What if that someone is Joshua, hmm?

[alphaophiuchi]

Fine. I didn't like him that much anyway. [shrug. They were kinda friends. But whatever. Girlfriend > Joshua.]

[spaztastic]

[chuckles.] Thanks. But like I said, I'm going to be fine, Draco.

[alphaophiuchi]

[pout. All the pout up in here.]

Doesn't matter. Who's supposed to protect your honour without me there?

[spaztastic]

How about me, hmm?

[She's very capable, Mister Malfoy.]

[alphaophiuchi]

[BUT.]

But darling, you must understand that you don't always have the best judgement. Sometimes.

[you know what, Draco, just admit it: you're totally jealous that she's there and single and you're not.]

[spaztastic]

[S I G H]

You know what, just c'mere. [She loops her arms around him and pulling him in for a hug.] I know you're worried. I promise to be careful, Draco.

[alphaophiuchi]

[hugs are good. Particularly from bitty people whose heads he can rest his chin on.]

You'd better. You know I'll know if you're not.

[spaztastic]

[This is probably why their height difference was adorable. She chuckles, nuzzling him.]

Because of wizard magic?

[alphaophiuchi]

[oh, it is. It definitely is.]

Among other things. But mostly magic. I'm still top of my class.

[spaztastic]

[chuckles]

And there's the smugness I know and love.

[alphaophiuchi]

It's hard not to love it, really.
