So, I guess I have a boyfriend.

You think I would let anyone touch me with a ten foot wand?
At least I have standards.

[ladyliberty]

You call it standards, I call it compensating for something.

[ladyliberty]

(Namely being a bitch.)

[crazula]

Call it what you want, I'm not the one prancing around in the journals over-sharing the little details of my private life.

[ladyliberty]

If you think this is over sharing, come back in a week and I'll tell you how firm his ass is.

[crazula]

Oh all right, I'm sure he'll appreciate the whole school knowing.
I hope he's as much of an exhibitionist as you are.

[ladyliberty]

We're working on it.

[crazula]

Well, good luck with that!
I'm sure it'll all go absolutely swimmingly.

[ladyliberty]

Thanks! Good luck with the bitch thing.

[crazula]

You're welcome, but I won't be needing any luck with that - after all, I'd much rather be a bitch than a floozy.

[jasmineofthewest]

I don't think anyone still uses the word 'floozy' anymore, as it is kind of outdated!

2/2 and ignore that last tag I don't know quite what I was thinking??

[jasmineofthewest]

Also I am afraid I must take a point from Slytherin, as insulting someone's promiscuity is incredibly rude and not at all your business.

[crazula]

There's no need to criticise my vocabulary for being outdated, uncle. I'm only trying to make it sound remotely more tasteful.

2/2

[crazula]

Then again, just take your point and I'll consider it well spent.

[jasmineofthewest]

There was no need to comment on her personal life at all, so you should not have had to worry about needing to be tasteful.

[crazula]

I just like to phrase things a little more delicately.
I am still my father's daughter, after all.

[jasmineofthewest]

I think there are plenty of other words you could have used that are more delicate. I could give you a few examples, but I am afraid it might embarrass you.

And that is unfortunate for everyone involved.

[crazula]

One still needs to get the right amount of weight across, uncle. Are we done discussing semantics yet or should I break out more of the family history?

[jasmineofthewest]

You do realize I should take a point from you as well, for starting the name calling.

[filtered;]

[ladyliberty]

But you won't, right?

[filtered;]

[jasmineofthewest]

I suppose not... But it would make a wonderful compromise if you agreed to join my class!

[filtered;]

[ladyliberty]

Isn't that like, sewing and cooking and stuff.

[filtered;]

[jasmineofthewest]

You're in fifth year, yes? If so, then unfortunately we'll have moved on from that sort of thing, and gone on to learn about budgeting and the like. It's quite useful for when you have your own house!

[filtered;]

[ladyliberty]

Sounds boring.

[filtered;]

[jasmineofthewest]

Excuse me, it is not boring. I did you a favour by letting your mistake slide, please don't repay me by insulting my class. Joining was nothing more than a hopeful suggestion.
