[looks at her and puts his hand on her shoulder] I’m certain that it will be okay. Teddy has been getting a lot of paperwork lately, which means that there must be something happening, right?

[call-me-di]

How can you be so certain? I trust Teddy with my life but there has been a lot of talk about- Well, worse things.

[lupinsted]

[ he jumps a little at Dianna’s entrance but grins when she starts singing along, ]

You’re so fine, and you’re mine. Make me strong, yeah you make me bold. Oh your love thawed out. Yeah your love thawed out What was scared and cold

[call-me-di]

[Dianna giggles as Teddy offered her his hand. She took it quickly and the pair continues to sing and dance together in the kitchens]

[aramis-abram-deactivated2014070]

*rolls his eyes* I don’t accept defeat so easily, but for the time being, I’ll give you one free pass

[call-me-di]

Only one? But I'm annoyingly stubborn.

[sleazley]

[Private]

[sleazley]

Haven’t had the chance to. Why? What happened?

[call-me-di]

Well, there was the disappearances and the deaths of muggles, but it's been very quiet. [She sighs and mutters] Almost too quiet.

[circeleroux]

Not exactly. [ she bites her lip nervously ] Maybe we should head back… We saw it, that’s enough, but… 

[call-me-di]

But? [She pressed, quirking an eyebrow at Circe] 

[lupinsted]

[ is dancing around in the kitchens while making himself a sandwich ]

You’re so fine, and you’re mine. I’ll be yours, ‘till the end of time ‘cause you made me feel… Yeah you made feel, so shiny and new. Like a Virgin… I don’t know the words to this song…

[call-me-di]

[Creeps into the kitchen and stops in the doorway, unable to hide the stupid grin on her face before joining in.]

Gonna give you all my love, boy My fear is fading fast Been saving it all for you 'Cause only love can last

[circeleroux]

[ Circe nods, her eyes scanning around to catch more movements. Her eyes lock on a shadow gracefully trotting through the trees, and immediately makes out the skeletal shape of its body ] Have you ever approached a wild horse?

[call-me-di]

I have not. Have you?

[aramis-abram-deactivated2014070]

Hey hold on! Its not my fault I’m so large. You can’t use that against me

[call-me-di]

I can and I will.

[sleazley]

[Private]

[sleazley]

[sighs too and looks at her] Okay. What’s going on?

[call-me-di]

Have you been reading the prophet lately?

[sleazley]

[Private]

[sleazley]

We were raised the same way. The pureness of your blood shouldn’t decided your worth. Only the thing you say and do can ruin your chances of being a good person. That, too. I meant something else.

[call-me-di]

I figured, that's why I was okay with sharing my opinion. [She sighs and looks out at the lake, suddenly feeling the weight of what is going on.]

[sleazley]

[Private]

[sleazley]

I was thinking something else, but that’s okay, too.

[call-me-di]

I don't much care for blood purity or blood status at all. Honestly, it's an archaic method of hierarchy that should have been ditched years ago. Maybe I feel like that because I don't know where I would fit on the totem pole or because of the way I was raised. Did you mean that there wouldn't be bigots then?

[sleazley]

If those other bigoted people would be like you, the world would be such a better place.

[call-me-di]

But it'd be full of indecision and uncoordinated klutzes.

[oh-hef]

[shininglike-victoireweasley]

There came a point in my life when tea just wasn’t caffeinated enough anymore.

[call-me-di]

It comes with the territory of being a mediwitch I guess.

[aramis-abram-deactivated2014070]

that isn’t a bad thing, and no, it’s not a twelve year old anything. And since I feel that this is you pushing me to say it, i’ll say it. You’re beautiful just the way you are

[call-me-di]

Says the giant. I wasn't fishing for anything, but thanks for the compliment.

[circeleroux]

I see. [ she replies, slightly uninterested but trying to be cordial. Her attention is fully on the matter at hand, after all. ] I think we’re safe. Most don’t want to venture into these woods, even to see if anyone has gone astray. It gets a little crowded down there too. 

I can’t remember which way I saw it going.. If only it weren’t so light on its feet and left behind a trail to follow. 

[call-me-di]

[She looks around, her eyes finally adjusting to the darkness within the woods. Out of the corner of her eye she notices movement between two trees. In hushed tones, Dianna whispers] Did you see that?
