Our minds are troubled by the emptiness

Jack Deschamp | 18 | Slytherin Fame is the responsibility, the perennial discipline, the concubine who solicits and imbibes, bit by bit, the love, the relations, the serenity, and the soul, leaving behind the subaqueous plaudits that pinch to the core

[michelleportier]

[Siiiighs oh so dramatically] Are you always so dull, Jack Deschamp?

[jackdeschamp]

Not in bed, ma'am.

[Turns again and practically snaps,] What?

[jackdeschamp]

-just calmly surveys him, loosely gripping his wand where Spencer can clearly see it- I'd watch your back, too.

[Swallows nervously at that and just leans down to pet Scout, who’s suddenly upset by the presence] Come on, boy. Let’s go before something bad happens. [And because Spencer’s a chicken shit he starts walking off to go study or something]

[jackdeschamp]

Spencer?

[michelleportier]

[Purses her lips, eyeing him now] Then what was it? I’m very curious.

[jackdeschamp]

Just an observation.

[michelleportier]

[Tilts her head] Was that meant to be derogatory?

[jackdeschamp]

Not at all.

[Prides himself in being a non-violent person—meaning really, if he were to pick a fight, he’d lose miserably. Have you seen him run? I mean, come on. But anyway, he sighs and shakes his head] Thanks for spewing a bunch of bullshit. If I were a jerk like you, I’d take away points from Slytherin and find some way to get you a detention, but that’d be abusing my position.

[jackdeschamp]

Might just want to keep a close eye on your girlfriend instead -his voice is venomous, but there's something unsettling intense about Jack- Pretty things have a tendency of going missing when you're not looking.

Okay, look. You’re being a total asshole, and I’m sure if she heard you going on like this, she wouldn’t really like it, seeing as she’s a virgin. [Shakes his head; he doesn’t want to divulge any information about her anxiety, obviously, but he’s sure that if he were to, Jack would totally look like an idiot] And I know because she trusts me, which is why I’m still being the bigger person here. Why are you saying these things? Do you think I’m just gonna give up? I’ve been practically in love with this girl since third year, and now she loves me, and it’s like I’m dreaming and I could wake up any second.

[jackdeschamp]

-deflates slightly, looking pretty damn incredulous- She's actually really a virgin? Shit, man -and to be honest, that kind of gets his gears going even more, which is apparent by the look of brief elation on his face. Still, he's mostly confused by this kid -- other boys would have attacked him by now for badmouthing their girlfriends -- hell, he certainly would have if he were in Spencer's place- Just don't get too comfortable. It's all temporary for you, pal.

[Clenches his jaw and continues to pet Scout, gravely silent for what seems like forever. This guy clearly isn’t letting up anytime soon, and though Spencer’s getting pissed off, he’s Head Boy—it’s not as if he could do anything bad] Yeah, whatever.

[jackdeschamp]

-is relentless, determined to get some sort of reaction out of this kid- I'd do it to her. I don't give a fuck about whatever 'relationship' bullshit you've got going on. I'd take her out, show her a good time, and fuck her so hard, the only thing she'd remember is my name. I'd leave bite marks all over her and put her on your doorstep, and once she'd come to her senses, she'd be coming back to me for more.

[michelleportier]

I like when a boy can put up a fight. I’m a feisty woman who needs a man to keep me under control.

[jackdeschamp]

Ah, so you're one of those.

[Sighs, getting really tired of Jack’s petty bullshit] I really don’t have time for this.

[jackdeschamp]

-is grasping at straws here so goes for even pettier tricks- You even fucked her yet? Because I know what she likes in the bedroom -his eyes flash slightly as he takes a step closer to Spencer- Girls like that, they're all pretty much the same -- classy girls, and she's the classiest. Once you get them into bed, though... -he smirks darkly- They want you to bend them over and bruise them whilst they call you Daddy.

[michelleportier]

It’s not like I’m expecting you to accept them. Everyone has their own opinions.

[jackdeschamp]

They're founded -he shrugs, frowning slightly- Do you want me to disagree?

[spencer-lahey]

I think I understand perfectly. You think that’s all she is—a popular model who takes pride in her job. [Snorts, smiling fondly at Scout when the pup barks in unison]

[jackdeschamp]

Not all. I know more about her than even you do.

[Stops laughing promptly and shakes his head] That is the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard.

[jackdeschamp]

Of course you wouldn't understand.

[michelleportier]

I do. [Nods, preening slightly because she loves her job] Why do you ask?

[jackdeschamp]

You seem surprised I'm respecting your opinions though.

[michelleportier]

I just think it’s funny that you’re taking my opinions so seriously. [Tilts her head, her smile widening]

[jackdeschamp]

Of course I am -just looks at her like 'duh- You work for Witch Weekly, right?

[Actually starts laughing at that because this guy is clearly off his rocker—Lana would never want those things, and Spencer is smart enough to know that]

[jackdeschamp]

-just glares, getting more and more pissed off- What's so funny, Lahey?

[michelleportier]

Oh, no. I can be very sweet when I want to be.

[jackdeschamp]

Did I do something to personally offend you, or is it just the scarf?
