Post by .RORY KAY BLAKE ! on Apr 28, 2010 19:13:14 GMT -5
These are moments out of Rorys life that occur between the threads shes RPed in..some should be read top to bottom and others bottom to top in the event they've been saved from the c-box. I'll make a note which is the case for each.[color=0050F
This one should be read bottom to top.. it occurs a good while before the dance thread but after they've come back to school from the time warp fiasco..probably some time in late November early December. Its Rory's first time rideing double with Al on a broom.
Al: there might be something...-chews on lip-
13 Mar 10, 04:47
Al: i...dunno. my hands are shaking. -softly-
13 Mar 10, 04:45
Rory: *feels her cheeks go warm as Al's hands reach for her own and the finds herslf tucked in against his chest with their faces rather close.... voice boardering between pleased and nervous* so.. see? when it's tugged this way..pulls her hands to the right under the warm grasp of Al's own* .. there... feel like a tug to you? or is that just me?..
13 Mar 10, 04:41
Al: -reaches out to wrap his hands around hers gently and rests his chin on her shoulder-
13 Mar 10, 04:40
Al: -lifts head and raises one eyebrow and smirks back- yeah? alright.
13 Mar 10, 04:39
Rory: *glances back at the mop of black hair whiping in the wind on her shoulder and laughs..* afraid to look? am I doinging that badly? ..maybe you should help steer *smirks*
13 Mar 10, 04:35
Al: if it still feels off, let me know. -rests his forehead against her shoulder-
13 Mar 10, 04:34
Rory: *frowns, shakes head ans shrugs* its probably just me, yeah?... getting use to the diffrence and all.. *pushes the broom into a slow dive and trys a slow curve to the side while decending*
13 Mar 10, 04:30
Al: -tightens grip on her waist and glances over her shoulder- think i should get it checked out?
13 Mar 10, 04:29
Rory: *frowns in concentration* yeah..a bit... and the broom wants to pull to the right.. or it feels like it anyway.. *tugs at the handle a bit and pushes back the nagging idea that the broom simply knows she not totally focused on flying*
13 Mar 10, 04:24
Al: takes a bit to get used to the weight, yeah?
13 Mar 10, 04:24
Al: -chuckles a bit nervously- it's alright
13 Mar 10, 04:19
Rory: gets it under control again..*sheepish*..sorry.. fling like a bloody first year today..
13 Mar 10, 04:17
Al: -keeps silent but tightens grip around her waist just a bit more-
13 Mar 10, 04:16
Rory: *kicks off and urges the broom forward.. misjudgeing the speed needed for the doubled weight and shooting forward a bit out of control... grimaces and grits teeth trying to reign the broom back in. *
13 Mar 10, 04:10
Al: -slips his arms around her waist gently and nods- ready.
13 Mar 10, 04:06
Rory: *grips the broom handle and smiles over her shoulder at him..* ready?
13 Mar 10, 04:05
Al: -waits until rory scoots up before situating himself behind her-
13 Mar 10, 04:05
Al: -looks at and nods with a smile- sure. -tugs up and flies them to the top of the tower, landing them on it after a moment and slowly climbing off-
13 Mar 10, 04:04
Rory: *watches the world spin slowly as they circle and then looks up to Al again* .. mind if we land somewhere? so I can steer for a bit?..
Al: -begins to curl the broom in circles around the astronomy tower-
13 Mar 10, 03:59
Al: (XDD nice)
13 Mar 10, 03:58
Rory: *honestly? I had a direction in mind but not an actual question, because I knew she'd not have the guts to ask it anyway XD )\
13 Mar 10, 03:56
Al: (so what was it exactly? XD)
13 Mar 10, 03:56
Rory: (smirks good guess)
13 Mar 10, 03:55
Al: (leaning more towards subjects that had to do with that accidental kiss. XD)
13 Mar 10, 03:53
Rory: (lol..take a guess as to the general direction of it )
13 Mar 10, 03:52
Al: -blinks- erm...no, i don't think so. -small smile and turns the broom in that direction-
13 Mar 10, 03:52
Al: (what was her question? XD)
13 Mar 10, 03:50
Rory: (never? XDnerve...)
13 Mar 10, 03:49
Rory: *bites her lip but loses her never and changes her question* .. ever fly as high as the atronomy tower before?
13 Mar 10, 03:48
Al: hmm? -lifts the broom up into a gradual incline-
13 Mar 10, 03:46
Rory: *smiles*..yeah... it is, right? ..*quite for a bit* ....erm... hey Al?...
13 Mar 10, 03:42
Al: -softly- this is nice. -turns the broom in random directions for them to make patterns in the snow-
13 Mar 10, 03:41
Rory: *to embarassed to speak but calmed by Al's reaction.. looks down to dip the toes of her shoes along with his in the snow carving a trench in the fluff.. rests her head agaisnt his back as she watches*
13 Mar 10, 03:36
Al: -cheeks get a bit pink but smiles- i'll take that as a thank you for the broom ride. you're welcome. -chews on lip as he looks forward and levels the broom out, slowing down so that they can reach down and skim their shoes over the snow-
13 Mar 10, 03:34
Rory: *slides forward, snug against Al from the gravity of the dive and ends up brushing her lips againt his cheek on acident as he glances back..eyes widen and blushes*
13 Mar 10, 03:26
Al: mhmm. -glances at and smiles, dipping the broom into a slow dive as they near the lake-
13 Mar 10, 03:25
Rory: *chuckles and watches as the snow covered ground race by underneath them... * always so peaceful up here isnt it? ...*eyes have long since gone sky blue*
13 Mar 10, 03:21
Al: -shivers a bit and swallows- he'd probably congratulate me on the rule breaking. -smiles as he does a slow turn over some trees and doubles back towards the lake-
13 Mar 10, 03:20
Rory: *smirks and mumbles in Al's ear*.. a law abiding prefect heading off over the forest on a broom..honestly..what would your dad say?..
13 Mar 10, 03:17
Al: hmm. seems a shame to restrict ourselves to the pitch. it's a nice day out. -guides the broom a little higher and heads straight over the pitch towards the forest-
13 Mar 10, 03:16
Al: (of course not XD)
13 Mar 10, 03:15
Rory: *grins at the feeling of the wind on her face and rests her chin on his shoulder.. sighing a bit in contentment at the height and speed... hugging Al having 'nothing' to do with it of course... *
13 Mar 10, 03:10
Al: -glances at rory and swallows, barely inclining his head towards hers as he takes them up higher so they can pass over the walls of the pitch-
13 Mar 10, 03:09
Rory: *shifts a bit so she can peak her head over his shoulder and watch where their going.. dosnt realize that puts his ear within unintentional tickleing distance of her cheek*
13 Mar 10, 03:07
Al: well, when you randomly get clutched at...-smirks and moves the broom even faster, sending their hair flying-
13 Mar 10, 03:06
Rory: *smirks* I'd slug you for laughing but my hands are a bit busy.. * and you smell so good its distracting*
13 Mar 10, 03:03
Al: -laughs- it's alright. -leans forward a bit and moves the broom even faster towards the pitch-
13 Mar 10, 03:02
Rory: *swallows..blushes out of embarassment and nods* just a bit of a shock at first yeah? *grins* sorry.. losens grip a bit as they start to move forward*
13 Mar 10, 03:00
Al: -slowly coaxes the broom forward-
13 Mar 10, 02:59
Al: -also makes a noise of surprise at being suddenly clung to, then lets out a chuckle- alright?
13 Mar 10, 02:58
Rory: *lets out a suprised sort of squeak, unacusomed to the balance and not being in control of a broom shes on.. gets nervous and hugs onto Al on reflex pressing to his back with her cheek on his shoulder*
13 Mar 10, 02:55
Al: -takes a deep breath- brilliant. -grips the broom and kicks off, taking a moment to get himself balanced with rory hanging on-
13 Mar 10, 02:52
Rory: um...*eyes Al's waist and hesitates for a second before sliding forward a bit and wraping her arms around him.. feels her heart leap and the contact and then settle in a swarm of pleasent butterflies....* ....all set.
13 Mar 10, 02:45
Al: hm...i'll steer, i guess. -moves to sit in front of rory- hold on tight. -small smile-
13 Mar 10, 02:41
Rory: *shrugs and her cheeks tinge pink..mumbles*.. dosnt matter..
13 Mar 10, 02:37
Al: -blinks and stares at rore in confusion for a moment- erm. would you like to be in the front of the back?
13 Mar 10, 02:37
Rory: *gulps* mm.. alright.. *climbs on Al's broom ridiculously clumsy for the seasoned beater she is and waits for Al to join her*
13 Mar 10, 02:34
Al: -stops and shakes head, letting the broom drop to waist level- why don't we just fly to the pitch?
13 Mar 10, 02:31
Rory: *nods* right..it can be.. *especially with you.. sighs..I'm SO lossing this fight.. frets..*
13 Mar 10, 02:30
Al: -makes a face also- but going for a leisurely fly is relaxing.
13 Mar 10, 02:25
Rory: *makes a face and shakes her head* nah.. he's worse about pracitce than I am.. if hes on a broom hes all about the game..
13 Mar 10, 02:23
Al: -casually as they walk- so you never rode double with soren, eh?
13 Mar 10, 02:22
Rory: *blushes a bit and dosnt dare ask what he means by 'diffrent' ...hopes down the last few steps of the grand stair case and heads to the front doors*
13 Mar 10, 02:20
Al: -nods a bit- yup. well, i use to ride on the back of the broom with mum or dad when i was little. but this is different.
13 Mar 10, 02:19
Rory: yeah? .. so this'll be new for you to then hu? *quickly clarifys* having to ride double I mean.. you know? Seeing as we've always had each our own brooms and all..
13 Mar 10, 02:14
Al: -raises one eyebrow a bit and glances back at rory- erm...no. actually, cissa and i never rode brooms together. we didn't do much other than sit around the castle. -small shrug-
13 Mar 10, 02:12
Rory: *follows Al* .. *clears throat while they walk tring to be non-chalant* ..so..get use to it?.. never rode double with Cissa then? ..I mean,... you two seemed so close before.. *shrugs and makes it a point to watch where shes walking for once*
13 Mar 10, 02:08
Al: -grins- sure, no problem. it shouldn't be too hard to get used to the balance. -leads the way out of the common room-
13 Mar 10, 02:02
Rory: double up?.. fights hard to fend off the yellow threating to flood her eyes and manages to keep it at bay...sort of.. do flecks of it matter?* err.. sure *smiles* we can do that, yeah?
13 Mar 10, 01:59
Al: -small smile- we'll just have to double up on my broom. take turns sometimes too.
13 Mar 10, 01:54
Rory: *frowns* It'll turn up Im sure but that downt help me with a way to fly with you now ..*sulks*
13 Mar 10, 01:54
Rory: *shakes head* no!.. I always put it by my dresser! ever since that day a few years back when I left it at your house..dad said if I lost it I have to edo without O.o so I started keping it in the same place all the time.
13 Mar 10, 01:51
Al: you didn't misplace is, did you?
13 Mar 10, 01:51
Al: -frowns- missing?
13 Mar 10, 01:47
Rory: *comes back down looking royaly put out* its missing! .. someone moved it..or something.. it was their this moring and now its not.. *scowls and mutters* bet someone hid it to get me back for keeping them up last night..
13 Mar 10, 01:45
Al: -returns after a minute with his broom over his shoulder-
13 Mar 10, 01:44
Rory: *darts up to the girls dorm to get her own*
13 Mar 10, 01:44
Al: let me go grab my broom.
13 Mar 10, 01:44
Al: -laughs- i'm assuming it's not gobstones.
13 Mar 10, 01:42
Rory: *smirks* free time.. clear skys.. you know what I'm thinking right?
13 Mar 10, 01:37
Al: -shrugs and grins back- whatever you want. i'm up for anything.
13 Mar 10, 01:36
Rory: *smile grows into a pleased grin*.. so what do you want to do then?
13 Mar 10, 01:34
Al: none. i've done so many lately, i got the chance to trade some out.
13 Mar 10, 01:29
Rory: *smiles but lifts a brow in disbeleif*..... really? ...none?
13 Mar 10, 01:24
Al: -moves to lean against couch right next to her- so. it's the weekend. and guess who doesn't have any prefect rounds? -grins-
13 Mar 10, 01:23
Al: -holds up hands slightly, holding back a grin- right, right. of course.

Post by .RORY KAY BLAKE ! on Apr 28, 2010 20:13:11 GMT -5
this one goes from top to bottom. its sometime before the Yule Ball I would think? in the week or so leading up to it maybe? Als been feeling bad about not being able to share with Rory his secret of getting lessons from his dad..he offered awhile back to teach her a new defensive spell. At the time it really upset her..the idea of using a spell to hurt him. it still does but she decides to reconsider as long as its a give and take situation.
Rory: *waits up in the common room for Al knowing he didnt have rounds tonight and that hes doing 'other' stuff... still not happy about it but holding to her promise not to pry.. he offered to teach her a spell though right? so that ... well.. it wouldnt be prying to ask..* 10:33 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -moves into the common room, stretching his arms, smiling happily at the way things went, see rory and smiles more, moving over to her- hey...-notices her not happy expression- something wrong? 10:35 PM
Rory: *quickly pulls a mild grin*.. no..just thinking.. hey.. remember when you offered to teach me a new spell awhile back? ...You still up for that? 10:36 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -thinks for a moment, still watching her in slight concern- the...one i told you would feel like a hard kick? 10:37 PM
Rory: yeah the deffensive one ..right?.. I was thinking.. I over reacted getting upset about it, right? ..I'm up for learning it... *looks down at her hands* but.. only if you give as good as you get while we practice ..yeah? 10:39 PM
Me
emily connor
al: ...give as good as i get? -blinks- and by that you mean... 10:40 PM
Rory: *Rolls her eyes and looks up at him with brows raised pointedly*.. c'mon Al..you 'know' what i mean by that.. 10:41 PM
Me
emily connor
al: ...you want to perform the spell on me? 10:42 PM
al: and in return 10:42 PM
al: ...you want me to perform the spell on you. -frowns- 10:42 PM
Rory: *nods slowly* .. to practice it ..yeah? whoever you learned it from obviously thought learning to take it and dodge it was as important as casting it right? soo.. *shrugs and looks down again* 10:44 PM
Me
emily connor
al: ....-swallows- well i...i suppose that's true. -doesn't look at all happy- 10:46 PM
Rory: so will you teach it to me the right way then? 10:47 PM
Rory: *looks up stubornly* if your going to get hurt showing it to me then I'm going to learn it right..not having you get hurt for nothing, yeah? 10:49 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -grimaces but meets her gaze and frowns lightly, thinking- -sighs after a moment and nods slightly- fine. give and take. 10:51 PM
Rory: *swallows and nods aftera minute..getting to her feet and moving into the open with her wand in hand.. faces Al and waits* 10:52 PM
Me
emily connor
-slowly moves to the open and takes out his wand again, frowning slightly- would you rather give it a try first? 10:54 PM
Rory: *stubbornly shakes her head*.. no point to that..I need to see wand movement..not just hear the incantation.. right? 10:56 PM
Me
emily connor
-frowns more but sighs, knowing she's right- ...alright. the incantation is ferreus labefactum. the wand movements sort of a jab...-swallows and raises his wand- is there...anywhere you want me to aim? 10:57 PM
Rory: *wry if nervous grin and a raised brow..her eyes having gone somewhere between the yellow of nerves and the purple of fear* ..dosnt matter.. I plan on trying my damnedest to block it yeah? 11:00 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -frowns and thinks to himself 'good luck'- ...alright then. -aims his wand at her left thigh and gives it a jab- ferreus labefactum! 11:02 PM
Rory: *sees al start to speak and tries to get out a protego spell.. barley gets out the first syllable before his spell hits her and her leg expodes in pain.. grabs it on reflex and grits her teeth.. her mouth settleing into a detrmined line as she straightens and tries to ignore the throbbing..* ..gotten rather fast at that... havn't you? 11:07 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -hurries forward, feeling horribly guilty- yeah, well, i've had practice. -swallows and kneels down to very gently poke at the spot that got hit- this might have been a bad idea. 11:08 PM
Rory: *steps back from him and waves him off* .. Its fine.. I'll never learn this if you fret over ever bump yeah? ..c'mon.. 11:10 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -slowly straightens up and frowns at her- fine. i won't heal it right now. but by the end, i will. you can't leave that sit, those bruises are three times as sensitive. the poke i gave it could have made it twice as big. -slowly moves back to this spot and tucks his wand into his pocket- 11:12 PM
Rory: *snorts*.. I'm not daft..wont go walking around wearing them like a badge yeah? ..you can heal them all once we'er through.. bound to end up with more I'd wager. *lifts her wand as he walks back to his spot but lowers it with a frown and a raised brow when he pockets his wand.. shakes her head* ..defend yourself or I wont even try to on your next go at me.. 11:17 PM
Me
emily connor
al: ...rory. no offense, but you won't get a shot it. -small smile as he pulls out his wand again and holds it at the ready- 11:18 PM
Rory: *shrugs* then I wont get one in yeah? ...and one day..at some point I will.. then I'll know I've got it.... *jabs with her wand but does more of a downward swish and jab than a sharp jab* ferreus labefactum! 11:22 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -frowns as rory casts the spell, does a quick blocking spell, rebounding it off to a pillow which rips and tears in half- ....not quite. -looks back at her with a slightly raised eyebrow- 11:24 PM
Rory: *gives it another go.. getting the jab right but so focused on her wand that she dosnt really aim* ferreus labefactum! 11:26 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -quick swish over his shoulder, blocks the spell again- focus a bit more on your aim. 11:27 PM
Rory: *sets her jaw in stubborn determination.. brow furrowing as she conentrates.. aims for Al's lower leg.. and jabs* ferreus labefactum! 11:30 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -not quite quick enough to get the blocking spell all the way, partially dulls the blow but winces anyways, half smiling as he looks up from his leg- 11:30 PM
Rory: *apologetic but pleased grin* sorry.. alright then.. I've had several goes..let me try blocking for a bit alright? 11:33 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -frowns a bit again but gives a small nod- alright. -brings his wand at the ready again, jabs wand not quite as hard at her left arm- ferreus labefactum! 11:34 PM
Rory: *mutters another shield charm and jerked her arm back but not before getting hit with the spell* .. blanches and sucks in a bit of air.. rubs her arm and frowns at Al.. your going easy.. that wasnt the deal yeah? *jerks her wand round and jabs* ferreus labefactum! 11:37 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -swishes his wand fast and blocks the spell- rory, i'm not going to hit you full force with this thing. not my full force. -jabs at a different spot on her left arm, a little harder than before- ferreus labefactum! 11:38 PM
Rory: *stairs a bit surprised at how easily he managed to block her snuck in atempt.. caught off guard by his return spell and yelps as it hits her arm.. her eyes phasing deep blue.. ducks her head for a second and closes her eyes trying to ward the color off* 11:42 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -catches the look of deep blue and drops his wand immediately, taking a few steps towards her and frowning heavily- no. that's it. that's enough for tonight. 11:42 PM
Rory: *frowns but knows the tone in Als voice.. * fine.. again tomarrow though? ..*blinks her eyes a bit to chase of building moisture and looks at the bruise forming on her arm with a frustreated frown* 11:46 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -also knows the tone in rory's voice and sighs, moving to her and taking her arm- fine, yeah. -gently pokes at the two spots on her wand and then tap the spot of her leg- ...fix 'em? 11:47 PM
Rory: *frowns and flexes her arm a bit when hes done* yeah its good.. thanks right? *heads over to the couch and slumps down into the cusions* 11:50 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -taps the spot on his leg that got hurt and moves over to her, sitting down besides her slowly- rory. you know i've had tons of practice with that, right? 11:51 PM
Rory: *nods a bid and looks up with a half hearted grin.. eyes nearly back to grey..* ..right, I get that.. it'll just take practice for me.. I'll get it eventually* 11:54 PM
Me
emily connor
al: ...what's wrong? -stares at her intently, green eyes bright as he pockets his wand- 11:55 PM
Rory: *shrugs and looks down thoughtfully* .. what did you mean my 'your' full force? .. how hard 'can' you hit with that?.. I know your blokes are fast.. faster than I've seen you use.. and I get the feeling they were still pretty slow for you... 11:57 PM
(ohhhhhhh the typos XD) 11:58 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -looks away, thinking for a little while before answering- i don't know. that wasn't my fastest, sure. as for how hard...-shrugs one shoulder, looking back at her- i think i could...-swallows- maybe break a bone? 11:59 PM
(XDD) 11:59 PM
Rory: *looks a bit startled and frowns.. lips tighten like she wants to say something but instead she just drops her gaze again* 12:01 AM
Me
emily connor
al: ...what? -frowns also, looking vaguely nervous- 12:02 AM
Rory: *shakes her head and sighs* .. you keep asking that but how can I answer it without breaking my promise to you yeah?.. and I'm not doing that..*gets up and paces over near the fire picking up a lock of her hair out of habbit and shifting the colors on it lost in thought* 12:05 AM
Me
emily connor
al: -lets out a soft sigh, not getting up and instead watching her with his eyes- -quietly- i'm sorry, rory. i wish i didn't...i don't want to keep this a secret. 12:05 AM
(gahhh. he wants to tell. XD) 12:06 AM

(sorry my Yahoo just went totally mental O.o) Rory: *shrugs* I get that and I know it its not your fault.. that you have to for some reason.. but you know whats wrong.. so why ask me yeah? what am I suppose to say? 12:09 AM
Me
emily connor
al: -frowns- i didn't know...i didn't know if that's exactly what you were going to ask. -hesitates- i mean, i could answer...some questions. as long as it wasn't asking...you know. what i'm doing exactly or...who's involved. -looks away- 12:11 AM
Rory: *laughs gently but a bit sarcasticly* well that leaves a whole lot to be explored yeah? .. *smiles tolerantly at Al and shakes her head* .. dont worry about it.. just so you know sometimes "I" cant tell "you" things.. not if I want to keep my end..and I do, right? 12:15 AM
Me
emily connor
al: -frowns to himself, looking down at his lap- right. -wonders what she can't tell him because of their deal and swallows, feeling the answers to her unasked questions on the tip of his tongue but says nothing- 12:16 AM
Rory: *flops down in the chair nearest the fire toying with her lock of hair and frowning into the flames* 12:18 AM
Me
emily connor
(al is like, twitching. XD) 12:18 AM

Me
emily connor
al: -looks up and stares at rory, frowning heavily and guilty as he watches her, wishing he could just tell her anything he wanted- ...you'll get the hang of it quick, i bet. the spell. and the speed just comes with a lot of practice. 12:19 AM
Rory: *glances over with a small smile and a raised brow* .. right? ..maybe I wont look more like a grape than like a me after the next set..*smirks* 12:21 AM
Me
emily connor
al: -slight laugh- yeah, bit of a nasty bruiser, that one. -pauses- you know the harder you jab, the more force it'll have. that, and concentration. 12:22 AM
Rory: *smile falters a bit* Right.. i'll have to err.. remember that. 12:23 AM
Me
emily connor
al: -doesn't notice her smile faulter because he's looking down again- and the first one you tried, with the slash downward? make sure it's just jabs, or it'll do something odd like that. -gestures vaguely to the torn pillow beside him- 12:24 AM
(i just got soda in my hair. XD) 12:25 AM
Rory: (.... .. lmao) *eyes the pillow and grimaces..* when you say ..'something' odd.. *sighs unable to finsih her thought with out treading into the damned area of prying* 12:27 AM
Me
emily connor
al: ...-can't stand it- rory. just ask your question. 12:27 AM
Rory: .. *blanches*.. look.. dont get mad at me alright!? *frowns*.. go on and hex me for carring and trying to keep my word to, yeah?.. *glowers at the fire..jabing her wand at it and makeing the flames leap in small bursts* 12:30 AM

Rory: *frowns and has a slightly bitter tone*.. right.. a balanced individual that had you in the hospital wing after the first time you met with them... *scowls* ..dont know who the person is Al but I dont like them much... *tone darkens a bit* ..at all.. 12:42 AM

Post by .RORY KAY BLAKE ! on Apr 28, 2010 20:48:18 GMT -5
ok..this ones read top to bottom.. it occurs the night before the day their to leave for Christmas break. Als been given th go ahead some days ago to tell Rory and his cousin Rose about his lessons. but only on certain conditions..one of which being he has to make it clear to them that he cant teach them any of it. Als told her he cant teach her anymore, but hasnt had time to explain why.. Rory being stubborn like she is has taken matters into her own hands and tried to continue learning the spell herself.. now she gets to suffer the consequences...
Rory: *slips back into the common room well after curfew trying to be super quite* 7:25 PM
al: -looks up from where he's been resting his face in his hands, elbows on knees, while sitting on the couch- -hops up, face furious- rory! where have you been?! 7:28 PM
Rory: *jumps badly and dosnt seem any less comforted that its Al thats caught her sneaking back in.. frowns and goes from started to snappish as he yells at her.. though her eyes remain bright purple rather than shifting to red..* Jezz! Al!... give me a heart attack! .. and what are you my dad now?? 7:34 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -takes deep breaths, feeling fear course through him more than anger, knowing his eyes would be purple too- no! just your best friend who's been waiting up for hours to try and talk to you and wondering where the bloody hell you've been! 7:36 PM
Rory: *frowns and heads over to sit rather gingerly in a chair by the fire*.. just..out, yeah? ..sorry if I made you worry..didnt mean to honest. Just had err.. something to do.. *pointedly keeps her gaze on the fire* 7:40 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -slowly moves over to another chair and drags it closer to hers, sits in it and stares at her hard- something to do? -flat voice- what were you doing, rory? -deep breath- 7:42 PM
Rory: *frowns but dosnt look away from the fire* .. just something personal.. *glances at him with a raised brow and eyes that've switched to yellow* ..you can understand that right? ..*looks back to the fire* 7:47 PM
Me
emily connor
al: ...-frowns slightly as he watches- i suppose. but i don't have anything personal to keep from you anymore. -pauses- because you're going to know everything. 7:47 PM
Rory: *sighs a bit wearily* ..We've talked about this Al..dont get yourself in trouble for me yeah?... just keep it to yourself like you were told to.. 7:50 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -keeps staring at her- my father agrees with me that having a friend or two who knows what's going on will be a good thing. 7:51 PM
Rory: .. *tenses up and glances over at him with a frown*.. what.. whats your dad got to do with it? *realizes the obvious ..he's the one teaching you all this?!? 7:53 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -holds up his hands slightly and says very calmly- yes, rory. my dad's teaching me spells, occlumency, and general defense. 7:54 PM
Rory: *snorts* ..general defense..dont give me that rubbish! .. general defense is what be learn in defense agaisnt the dark arts.. those lessons.. their.. well their cruel is what they are! ..You might be learning from them yeah... but he's hurting you! .. Really badly sometimes.. and on purpose! 8:00 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -frowns and shakes his head- rory, he's not out to hurt me. that's not the point. the point is to make me a better wizard. i barely get hurt now, even, because i can dodge and defend. -deep breath- he never does anything too bad, and i signed up for this, rory! my decision. 8:01 PM
(brb) 8:02 PM
(k) 8:02 PM
Me
emily connor
(back) 8:03 PM
Rory: *Frowns and nods as if in agreement with something* .. yeah.. makes a difference if its something you chose to do.. I'll agree to that.. *keeps her gaze off his and on the flames* 8:06 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -keeps looking at her- what're yo...thinking about? 8:07 PM
Rory: *shakes her head lightly* ..nothing.. so whys he teaching you all this anyway?.. I mean yeah I heard.. to make you better able to defend yourself and all but... *frowns and softens her tone*.. is this because of what happend at the dance Al? 8:10 PM
Me
emily connor
al: ....honestly? -swallows and gives his head a slight nod- yeah. it's because of what happened at the dance. -clenches his hands on top of his knees- 8:11 PM
Rory: *frowns*...why cant you see you were already strong? already an awesome wizard..for your age yeah?.. cant expect yourself to know more than you've had time to learn... *sighs* look I get it alright?...I understand 'why' and I'm ok with that.. its the 'how' that bugs me..
al: rory. -runs a hand through his hair- it's perfectly controlled, you know. dad knows what he's doing, he trains aurors and is one for a living, after all. it's not just randomly shooting spells and trying to hurt me. it's structured. 8:18 PM
Rory: *conciders what hes saying* yeah I guess thats true... why didnt he heal you before you left out from the lesson that first time though? .. Didnt he even offer to? 8:21 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -looks sheepish as he stares down at his clenched hands- yeah. but i told him i would take care of it. 8:23 PM
Rory: *shakes her head but dosnt throw her usual..'your a daft prat' comments around... gets up to head over to the fire and put a new log on as its started to die down.. bumps the log against her stomach while moving it and flinchs* 8:27 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -eyes pick up on her slight movements and immediately knows what's been going on- -sharp voice- you've been practicing on your own. 8:27 PM
Rory: *straightens up but dosn't turn around.. leans over to set the log in place*.. what?... why would you think that? *tries to keep her voice flippant like hes daft for considering that while at the same time not out right disagreeing and lieing to him* 8:33 PM
(brb) 8:33 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -eyes narrow, slowly beginning to feel anger and more fear--how bad was she hurt?- because that log hit your stomach and you winced. you're hurt, rory. -deep breath- you shouldn't practice anything on your own! 8:34 PM
Rory: just bumped it to hard with the log is all.. *shrugs and heads back over to the chair to sit back down.. pointedly keeps her gaze from his knowing hers is a bit to blue for a simple log bumping..* 8:48 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -flatly- you're lying to me, rory. i'm not daft. i'd appreciate it if you didn't act like i was. 8:49 PM
Rory: *flinches from his words this time rather than from pain and sighs*.. it.. its not that bad yeah?.. I'll be ok.. and I stop.. only did it that first night.. was actually trying to.. err.. heal it tonight.. get better at healing spells you know? because I couldnt heal it when it happened..didnt think howi'd managed to before...*defeated sigh* ..before practicing..*bites her lip*.. might need your help with it..if your not to ill at me that is.. 8:53 PM
Me
emily connor
-frowns heavily and stands up, moving over to her and fishing out his wand- where're you hurt? 8:56 PM
Rory: *hesitates for a minute and then pulls up the front of her shirt a bit exposing her lower stomach...a large black and blue softball size bruise with evidence of having been made worse here and there with unsucesfull wand prods and pokes mars her skin* 8:59 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -lets out a long breath through his nose and bends closer, murmuring under his breath as he taps her stomach gently, the bruise slowly diminishing and then disappearing all together- ...is that it? -frowns slightly at her- 9:01 PM
Rory: *dosnt look at him....quitely..* ..yeah thats it.. quit after that.. hurt to bad.. 9:02 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -slowly- are you just lying to try and keep a bruise as a reminder, which by the way is a very daft move? 9:03 PM
*looks up with a roll of rather teary eyes.. forgetting to keep her head ducked to hide them*.. right Al.. thats 'just' what i'm doing.. even after chewing you for the same yeah?..*snorts* 9:05 PM
Me
emily connor
-swallows dryly- then why the hell are you crying? 9:05 PM
brb 9:07 PM
Me
emily connor
mkay 9:07 PM
brb too 9:10 PM
Rory: *defensive*.. I'm not!.. *rubs a her eyes with the back of a hand* 9:13 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -stubbornly- yes, you are! rory, if you leave those bruises, they'll get worse and worse! i never should have taught you that spell! -frustrated- 9:19 PM
Rory: *still defensive* ..there arnt any more I told you!.. that one just hurt really bad before you healed it!.. *drops her voice and mubbles* ..and your ill at me.. 9:24 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -takes deep breaths and backs away from her, turning to stare at the fire so he can calm himself- i'm not...-large sigh- rory, you scared the bloody hell out of me. the thought of you, practicing alone...and getting hurt because of something i taught you? 9:25 PM
Rory: *just about whispers..still teary* ..I didnt think it would be that bad.. and I thought I could heal it right away.. 9:29 PM
Me
emily connor
al: rory, i'll be the first to admit that by some freak chance i'm good at healing charms. those things are hard to heal anyways, and i've had extra practice to boot! -turns to her- you just can't do these things alone, rory. and i-- -swallows- i can't teach you anymore. 9:31 PM
Rory: *frowns*.. why is it alright for you to learn it but not me? 9:38 PM
Me
emily connor
al: ...-stares at her and frowns back- because i'm older. because i've got more experience than you, and because i've been through things that made me grow up fast. rory, no offense, but you're not the most mature of people half the time. these are serious things--dangerous spells. it's nothing to use on a regular basis, this isn't fun and games anymore! this is a war. and quite frankly -grimaces- i can handle the responsibility. but you're just...not ready. 9:40 PM
(ouch Al..ouch) Rory: *frowns and her eyes spark hints of red...moves her gaze from his and glares into the fire* ..right.. since I'm such a 'kid' maybe I should head to bed yeah? ..awful long past my bed time I'm sure.. 9:52 PM
Me
emily connor
(he had to say it. -shrugs-) al: -frown deepens a bit- -softly- rory, this is sort of what i'm talking about. -swallows- you're a brilliant witch, rory, and you're only 15. i don't think you should grow up. you should stay this way as long as you can. but i can't. i've never been just my age, i've always thought...different. and i needed to keep advancing. but you don't have to, rory. you don't need to. 9:54 PM
Rory: *short hurt tone* .. so your just going to leave me behind then yeah? ..out grown me have you? ..*tugs her legs up into the chair hugging them to her and glancing at Al breifly before looking into the fire again. 10:08 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -mouth drops slightly- wha--no! -takes a slight step forward- rory i'm not...i'm growing up in how i act. and i'm becoming a better wizard. but i'm not--i'm still me! it's still me, Albus Potter, your best friend and an all around prat. -swallows- i'm just older and more controlled. but you're growing up too. i could never, ever out grow you. it's--that's ridiculous. -stares at her- 10:10 PM
Rory: *more put out by Als comments than by not being able to lean the new spells..has her head tucked to her kness and her mouth hidden by them as she stares into the flames * ..could of fooled me.. practically called me a two year old yeah?.. I mean.. I know I'm.. err.. bit hyper sometimes.. but thats just me. Its not going to change.. 10:32 PM
Me
emily connor
al: i didn't even hint that i thought you were a two year old! -sighs- i just...rory. i'm sorry, alright? i'm sorry about the way i...worded that. and i know you won't change a lot, but you will change. everybody changes when they grow up. -deep breath- i'm the only one who can learn from my father, because he knows what i've been through. but you shouldn't have to--you don't need to worry about it. and definitely don't need to worry about me 'leaving you behind'. -softly -i would never. 10:34 PM
(hold that thought? switching computers) 10:39 PM
emily connor is Available
(10:43 PM)
emily connor
back 10:43 PM
Rory: * thoughtful for a long few moments then expression softens just a bit..sighs*.. I just dont care for it when we tie up yeah? and what you said... that just hurt Al..*frowns* ...... im sorry I practiced the spell... wont do it again alright?.. probably'll need to know somewhat diffrent spells from you anyway with what I've decided I want to do.. 10:46 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -murmurs- i'm sorry. i shouldn't have worded it that way. you're not a child. -swallows and looks at her in confusion- ...what do you mean, different spells than me? 10:47 PM
Rory: .. well I'll still need the basics yeah? and what any other auror's got to learn. But I've decided I want to work with magical creatures to.. find some way to make the second useful in the work of the first right? .. been talking with Teddy about it.. dragons especially.. 10:50 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -blinks, vaguely shocked- this...is new. -swallows a bit and sits back down in his chair- dragons and aurors? 10:51 PM
Rory: *frowns* well I dont know 'how' they'd be of use together yet.. just that I'm really interested in both.. but like you said.. I've time to figure all that out right? 10:53 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -lets out a slow breath, reminding himself to choose his battles- -smiles slightly- right. just 15. plenty of time to figure out the rest of your life. -shoulders relax slightly- i should remember that more often too, i suppose. 10:53 PM
(true sign of an ADD child XD switching gears at the drop of a hat lol) 10:54 PM
Me
emily connor
(XDD yes.) 10:55 PM
Rory: *rolls her eyes and flashes him a small grin*.. yeah should... *sticks her tongue out* 10:57 PM
(yeah YOUshould...face palm) 10:57 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -spits his tongue out back at her, smiling and relaxing a bit more- i'll try and remember that more. -deep breath, lets it out slowly- i have to tell rosie about this too. 10:57 PM
Rory: *raises a brow* .. that should go well.. *watches the fire for a few minutes*.. hey Al?.. 10:59 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -also watching the fire- yeah, rory? 11:00 PM
Rory: ...thanks for telling me first right?... I know it shouldn't mean anything, but it does...to me... 11:02 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -smiles and looks over at her- you're welcome. -looks back to the flames- waited for you for hours, i did. i would have told you earlier, but with prefect duties... 11:03 PM
Rory: *hurls a pillow at Al * ..feel guilty enough yeah? .. stop it you prat.. 11:04 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -hit and falls over with a soft laugh, grabbing the pillow and hugging it- sorry, sorry. i'm just saying. i would have told you earlier. and it was always going to be you first. 11:05 PM
Rory: *watches him for a moment and then unfolds herself to slide down to the floor and scoot over to his chair.. leans her back against his legs and pokes at a stray piece of bark on the harth with her toe* 11:09 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -swallows and takes a deep breath, leaning back slowly into the chair and watching her, mesmerized- 11:11 PM
Rory: ...*continues pokeing around the stray bark* ..so.. we never did get to finish talking over Christmas Eve yeah? .. think it'll snow alot?.. I bet if its clear we'll be able to see the north star.. heard somewhere that its brightest on Christmas Eve.. think theres any truth to that? 11:14 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -blinks, startled slightly and swallows- hmm...maybe. guess we'll just have to see. -small smile- maybe it'll snow a lot but clear up by that night. 11:15 PM
Rory: *smiles a bit* ..hope so.. *leans her head back agaisnt his legs and stiffles a yawn with her hand.* 11:18 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -hears her yawn and leans to the side a bit to look at her witha small smile- tired? 11:19 PM
Rory: *shakes her head stubbornly*..no I'm fine.. *plucks up a curl of her hair to toy with and starts shifting it to solid but very vivid colors* 11:21 PM
Me
emily connor
al: you sure? -smiles a bit more- you don't have to stay up with more or anything. 11:21 PM
Rory: *shrugs*.. I know I dont "have" to...*leaves it at that and keeps playing with her hair* 11:22 PM
Me
emily connor
al: -smile softens but gives a shrug, deciding to let it drop and leans back again- hmm. 11:24 PM
*plays with her hair a while longer in the quiet until her hand eventually sags and her head turns a bit...cheek agaisnt his knee and breathing steady and quiet* 11:26 PM
Me
emily connor
-stiffles a soft laugh, knowing he's got to move her or she'll have the worst neck ache- -reaches down to gently tug her up by her underarms until he can get his other arm under her legs, carrying her bridal style over to the couch- 11:27 PM
*mumbles and cuddles into his chest as hes carrying her* ..not tired.. 11:29 PM
Me
emily connor
-laughs softly again and whispers to her- yeah? mhmm. couch or your bed, rory? 11:30 PM
*dosnt answer..just shifting her head to snuggle agaisnt him and make herself more comfortable* 11:32 PM
Me
emily connor
-stops and stares at the girls dormitory steps reproachfully, sighs and moves over to the couch and carefully lays rory down, pulling off his robes to place them over her- 11:33 PM
*smiles and snuggles into his robes..murmering in her sleep.. * ...smell awfully good, yeah?... 11:36 PM
Me
emily connor
-freezes, cheeks flushing ever so slightly- ...eh? i erm...do? 11:37 PM
*turns her face into the pillow a bit..tucking it under the robes partially with a sound of agreement* ..mhmm... 11:39 PM
Me
emily connor
-bites at his lip for a moment and then reaches down to smooth back some of her hair and gently kiss her cheek- night, rore. 11:40 PM
* only manages a happy sigh curled up beneath his robes* 11:42 PM
Me
emily connor
-smiles and straightens up to move up towards the boys dormitories- 11:42 PM
*mubbles something slightly distressed..probably dreaming and reliving earlier*..leave ...behind? 11:46 PM
(suffer the torture AL XD) 11:46 PM
Me
emily connor
-freezes with his foot on the bottom step and cringes, slowly turns and makes his way back over, sitting down next to rory's head, staring at her and frowning- -softly- i'm not leaving you behind. 11:47 PM
*dosnt reply but senses his warmth and shifts her sleeping head to his leg in favor of the pillow* 11:50 PM
Me
emily connor
-swallows and reaches down to gently smooth back her hair again, knowing that they shouldn't fall asleep like this but they just might- 11:50 PM
*snuggles her face against his leg at his touch..lets out another small and happy sigh and her hair shifts of its own accord to a very pale pink* 11:52 PM
Me
emily connor
-blinks hard, staring down at her pink hair- -murmurs- pink...? 11:54 PM
*shifts the tinyest bit though dosnt wake* ..hmm?.. 11:56 PM
Me
emily connor
-brows furrow in confusion- nothing, nothing...-sighs after a moment, knowing he won't leave rory but also knowing that them being found with her head on his leg would be..not good, his mum would die- -reaches down to gently gather her in his arms and pull her to his chest instead- 11:58 PM
*curls agaisnt him and tucks her face into the hollow of his neck..her hair remaining its self chosen color* 12:00 AM
Me
emily connor
-eyes the pink locks, still confused, but decides to let it be for the time being and holds her closer- -closes his eyes with a soft sigh, listening to her breathing- 12:00 AM
(I think its safe to say they fell asleep on the couch together? XD ) 12:02 AM
Me
emily connor
(XDDD yeah. and it's probably the day before they leave for christmas break, so that'll be an amusing next morning) 12:03 AM
