Daisy wished she could understand what it was about Barty that allowed her to be so calm in his presence. Nothing in the world could get to her right now. It was a wild feeling that she chased over and over again. Sure, her and Walden were complicated on the outside. But those complications just turned into fun. With Barty, it was a different kind of fun, but an all around escape that she could feel herself becoming more and more addicted to by the second. 

His rough hands continued their ascent, leaving her weaker and weaker in the knees. It was all she could do to even keep bits of her wits about her. But she wasn’t really sure she wanted to anyway. A whimper fluttered from between her lips. His sudden words tickled her ear as she let her head droop onto his shoulder. I could stay here forever. The words bubbled beneath her tongue. “Very good, are you?” Reluctantly she pulled head back up in to reality with him to check and make sure that they were on the same page. Daisy leaned her forehead against his as her eyes shut, just breathing him in for a moment. But a gulp hit her as she suddenly wondered if she were acting like an idiot, eyes fluttering open nervously to see what he was thinking.

She had always just accepted him, for who he was, and he didn’t feel like he had to pretend, and he honestly liked being around her. Apparently, he also really liked kissing her too. She was beautiful. That, he already knew. It just, it wasn’t as complicated as he and Septima were. It was fun, more fun than he had anticipated, it would seem.

He was losing more and more of his brainpower by the second, if he was honest. But, control was one of those things that he allowed himself to lose with certain people, but only with certain people. He was difficult with everyone else. “Yeah, I’m good. I just wanted to make sure you are, that I’m not pushing or you know...” Dear Merlin, now he was rambling.  His eyes met hers. “When I try to talk when I’m you know, not capable of words, it comes out a mess. I like kissing you and such. Not complicated right?” His hand went to her cheek, and he wanted to lean in again.

For a moment, Rodolphus simply waited for Barty to react and begin the duel. However, when it became evident that the other seemed to be readying himself, Rodolphus sent a simple hex Batry’s way to check for a barrier. In comparison to what he could have sent the Raveclaw’s way, the hex was rather tame and would only be bothersome for a few hours; that is, if it had struck its target and not destroyed the barrier that had been put up at some point. 

“The point of this is for you to go on the offensive, Crouch. I suggest setting up your barrier once more and then actually attacking.” He wasn’t intentionally coaching the other, in realty Rodolphus was egging Barty on. At some point, annoyance would take over and that’s when mistakes would be made. It was a simple assessment but even then, he could have his own fun. “You’re incredibly proud of what you know so put it into action or are you just a bookworm?”

Barty frustrated easily. He didn’t know if that was his magic changing, or what it was. But, he knew that he got frustrated easier, than he once did. He was good at defense, but the hex had gotten past his barrier and he had to admit that he had stomped his foot at that.  He was rather annoyed now, but he knew not to show too much of the attitude that he was currently feeling.

He rolled his eyes. “I already had that figured out, but thanks for the input.”  He scoffed at him. “You’d like to think I’m just a bookworm, wouldn’t you? I mean, that’s all Ravenclaws do. Read books, write essays, right? Well, not all Ravenclaws are like that.  He put his barrier up and then fired off a hex of his own. It wasn’t insanely powerful but not weak and if it connected, would inflict some pain. That’s what he enjoyed, inflicting pain and that was new for him.

“Do you want Septima to be more than a friend?” he asked, “Not just sex, but romantically?” It certainly sounded to him like he wanted something more with her. “She is cool,” Kingsley agreed with a small laugh. “She does her best I’m sure.”

“Well yes, I think, yes. She’s great. She keeps me levelheaded. But, there are a couple of other that are not as complicated.  Life is easier when I am just focused on studying. Girls are complex. Really complex.”

“I suppose so.” She shrugged. “Well, I guess I’ll keep you updated.” 

He smiled at her. “Good plan.  But, I appreciate the normal cigarette, so thanks.”

Dolores didn’t like Barty, nor did she trust him, but it was never fun to drink alone. She was already tipsy, so his presence didn’t annoy her as much as it usually did had she been sober. She watched Barty with an amused smirk, but ultimately ended up nodding her head in agreement, “That sounds like a plan. You’d better drink up if you plan on catching up.” 

Barty was changing by day, and he was finding that he watched people like Alecto Carrrow, a bit more than he once did.  But, he did want to get drunk and he had more in his bag, anyway.  “How drunk are you, then? I have more, if you run out too. It seems that we were thinking the same thing. You just talk less, than I do.”

“Yeah, I can agree with that.”

“I’m afraid, it is upon us, though.”

“Such a dreadful accident, I don’t know how that happened.” She looked towards the other with a smile. “You can clean it up though right?” She asked grinning

Barty glanced over at Isla and rolled his eyes. “Yeah? Why should I be the one to clean it up? I mean, what do I get out of it, if I do?”

“My father doesn’t approve of regular smoking, he’d be near ready to drag me home if he’d heard word of me smoking anything else. Still, it does sound intriguing.”

He smiled at her. “My father doesn’t approve of anything I do, so more reason for me to do it. Well if you ever want to, I can oblige.” 

[ravencrouch-a]

diggin-amos‌:

“Yeah, me too. I just like how things are.”

He nodded. “Yeah, I get that. Too much change is weird.”

“We start with an assessment, I’d get ready for a duel if I were you.” As he spoke, Rodolphus pointed his wand towards the door and placed a charm that would ensure it would stay locked, the follow up spell was familiar but for a much more enjoyable reason. “The room is charmed so no one outside will hear if you scream or anything similar to it.” Silencing spells had always been his favorite and as time went, it proved to be more and more helpful then most believed it to be. 

“I’ll take a defensive position.” A test of the fundamental spells that they’d be building upon was necessary and as he cast a spell that pushed the desks all the way to the back of the room, he began to walk towards the the opposite side of the room. It was as he turned to look back to face Barty, wand in his dominant hand, that he quickly and silently cast a shielding charm in front of him. “Start when you feel ready.”

“I’m always ready for a duel.”  He wasn’t a fool. He was always ready for anything. He was fairly certain that the Lestranges were highly pretentious, but he also knew that he probably shouldn’t say something like that, so he kept his mouth shut, at least. “I’m not really a screamer, but good to know.”  He had experienced his share of pain over the years, but he’d not been one to scream, but he was finding that he wanted to make someone else scream more and more, and not during sex. He wanted them to scream in pain.

“Right then.”  He watched him carefully, watching as the desks pushed back and his own wand  was out and he cast a shielding charm of his own, but his own was probably not so wordless. He’s not quite perfectly silent magic yet. Almost, but not quite.

“Yep, we’ll definitely see.”

He shrugged. “I am content to just enjoy how things are now, really.”

Dolores didn’t truly like anyone other than a handful of select people. The rest she either tolerated or just ignored. Barty was somewhere in between the tolerating and ignored. She thought about ignoring him when he asked about the alcohol, but she shrugged and handed him the bottle. “Happy?“

He didn’t like Alecto persay, but he didn’t hate her, either. It was like most of his life. He wasn’t good, wasn’t evil. He was halfway between everything, but he tolerated her, tolerated most things. That’s how life was.  He took a drink and nodded. “Thanks. Today’s been a bit of a shit day, ergo the rambling, could use getting drunk and being stupid, if I’m honest.”

[ravencrouch-a]

siiniistra‌:

“Really? To be honest, I’ve never gotten around to actually trying it. Plus, cigarettes are a bit easier to get your hands on.”

“Really? It relaxes me and it feels like a huge rebellion to my father, so well, even more reason to do it, if you ask me.” 

[ravencrouch-a]

diggin-amos‌:

“Yes, that could be possible, but like you said, we may never know.”

He shrugged. “Maybe not. We’ll see.”

“Women are complex,” Kingsley agreed with a small chuckle. “Any women in particular that are being complex?” he asked with a curious raise of his eyebrow. “Studying mostly, or I’ve been with Molly. I know, it always seems to get so much busier at this time of the year.”

“You’re telling me.”  He sighed. “Currently, Septima, but that’s not anything different. She’s my..well best friend...but sometimes more. She makes my head hurt and makes me smile. Women. And I mean, I have people I can’t help but flirt with. I’m a friendly guy.”  He nodded. “Molly’s cool though. She keeps you in line,” he added with a laugh.

Molly could understand why Barty wouldn’t get along with one of her brothers. She beamed at his words before thanking him again for another compliment. “You know how to make a girl feel better when she’s down.”

He smiled at her. “Well I try.”  He’d always liked Molly. He figured that she could have done better than Kingsley, when that happened, but he never said that. He was so blunt, but he kept his mouth  shut sometimes.
