Considering current events, I'd just like to make a quick PSA encouraging everyone to invest in some breath mints if they're going to be out and about. Because some people really need it. That's all.

Comments

[alwaysimpure]

Certainly makes me a lot less appealing to me.

[He just laughs and shakes his head.]

I'll get over it, probably. Don't worry. Just between that and the nightmares, you're better off in someone else's bed, love.

[animator]

[Nightmares. That's something she knows a lot about, too.

She offers him the tiniest smirk in reply. There's something she can play on to brighten the mood a bit more.]

Bed? Who said anything about bed? Is that the kind of girl you think I am?

[alwaysimpure]

No, it's the kind of bloke I think I would be around a girl like you.

[He will just latch on any chance to brighten the mood right now. And recover some dignity.]

[animator]

[She actually blushes a little at that, which is embarrassing in itself. She does not think of herself as the type to blush.]

Well, then that's one more reason it wouldn't work out.

[She smirks.]

There are some things I still hold sacred.

[And honestly, it would be difficult around him.]

[alwaysimpure]

Sacred?

Oh...

Well. You could catch a unicorn with that.

[animator]

Oh! I'm not a--

[She knows exactly what he's implying.]

I mean, bed has happened before, but it's something I like to take my time with.

[alwaysimpure]

Ah! Oh, right.

Someone that special never happened to me. But good luck to you.

[animator]

[She shakes her head again, hoping that the blush has crept out of her cheeks. Ugh, embarrassing, but it's keeping the mood light.]

I thought he was special, but he turned out to be a creep. Kind of the reason for all the waiting. I'm not in any hurry, though. There's definitely more to life than that.

[alwaysimpure]

[He admitted to not getting it up and SHE is embarrassed?]

There is. With James and Lily around, they were always waiting for us to just find someone, too. Don't think that actually happens often though.

[animator]

[It's different! She just feels bad for him on that count, it's just evidence of how horrible Azkaban was.]

That happens when you're friends with couples. I have a friend who got married last year, guess what she can't wait for me to do, too? It's not that I'm against it. But I have other things going on. It's not as simple as she thinks it is. Marriage agrees with her, though. Just because I'm not in the same boat doesn't mean I'm not happy for her.
