Journal Entry #7

[Backdated to September 29th]

I don't know who decided to give Zazzerpan pie, but I would advise against doing it again as he was very sick all over the goat pen. Seeing that it was just a very simple case of stomach upset and since he's feeling much better now, I'm not terribly angry about this. However, it was very concerning for a while and cleaning up after him was very unpleasant, so I really would appreciate it if you would talk to me before feeding my goat. Thank-you.

And to everyone who happened to have Ancient Runes with me yesterday, [inkblot] I'm very sorry you had to see that. It won't happen again. [Another inkblot] Or it won't happen again if I can figure out exactly what happened. I'll look into it at my earliest possible convenience.

[[OOC: Apparently, on September 28th, one Gamzee Makara happened to be speculating on what certain people might look like if they were naked. And then thinking made it so.]]

[Inksplatter]

I didn't think it was possible for death to be temporary, although I think one of my housemates might be doing some research on that particular subject.

Do you know how long he was dead? If he wasn't dead for too long, someone may have just been able to resuscitate him. Whatever the case, I'm very glad nothing like that happened to you.

[pause]

What happened in my Ancient Runes class was really inconsequential, when you think about it, so I didn't think you'd be interested.

[And now being worried and a little suspicious. Because why would Shinra avoid the subject? Did he ... do something with someone else? If he's apologizing for what other people had to see ... ]

I'm thrilled that you're as interested in me as I am in you, but this isn't

[Inkblots]

My clothes disappeared during Ancient Runes, but one of my classmates lent me a robe and the professor was kind enough to excuse me for the rest of the class. [pause] So there's not much use in dwelling on it.

[There's quite a bit of a pause here, then]

WHO THE MOTHERFUCK DID THAT TO YOU?

[The following text is a bit less tidy than it usually would be.]

I don't think anyone necessarily did it to me. I didn't get the sense that anyone in my class was conspiring to do anything like that and I can't imagine what they would have gotten out of it anyway. And ancient Runes is more of a theoretical class, so it couldn't have been a misfired spell.

I suppose it was probably more of [pause] an occurrence than anything.

Possibly, but I think that would more to do with the unexpected nature of the situation than anything else. After all, it came as something of a shock to me and I imagine everyone else in the class was probably just as surprised.

Whatever the case, It was more than a little embarrassing at the time, but I'm alright now.

Are you alright? You seem upset. Are you sure nothing happened to you?

I'm touched that you feel so strongly about this, but I really don't think anyone was directly responsible for it. At least not intentionally. I can't think of anyone in my Ancient Runes class who would want to mess with me and even if they did, they would probably just hide my belongings in the greenhouses again.

It was a very unusual experience, but ultimately there really isn't anything to worry about.

It really isn't my thing, but as I said, my classmates and professor were surprisingly understanding, so I was able to find [pause] alternative clothing relatively quickly. So ultimately, I think I'm quite well, all things considered.

Are you alright? You're not still upset, are you?

[Of course he's still upset, but Gamzee has noticed that in general people are not okay with him when he's angry about something. If he can hide it, it's better, and he doesn't want to scare off Shinra.]

[Well.. The subject was dropped and he gets to see Gamzee. This is a very good turn of events.]

I would like that!

Where are you right now?

LiBrArY!
i'M wOrKiNg On ThIs DiV eSsAy.

I could meet you there, if you like.

I'm just in my common room, so I could be there relatively quickly.

YeAh, I wAnT tO sEe YoU.
mAyBe YoU cAn GiVe Me A hAnD.
;o)

I'm not sure I could help you. You're generally as good at divination as I am, if not better, given your intuition.

But I'll be there as soon as I can! Because I really would love to see you as well.

tHeN gEt YoUr CuTe BuM oVeR hErE!

[And when Shinra does show up, Gamzee will be sitting at one of the desks with a few books spread open in front of him, including his journal. One of them doesn't appear to have anything at all to do with Divination - it's on curses - but the other two are obviously research for homework.]

[It takes Shinra a little while to actually locate Gamzee once he's reached the library -as the library is very big- but when he does spot him, he makes his way over to the desk as quickly as he can -given that one generally doesn't run in a library- and pulls a chair over, whispering excitedly to the other boy as he does so.]

Hello! You weren't waiting long, were you? Finding you in here took some time.

[With that, he moves to perch on his chair, sitting a bit closer than is probably necessary.]

[Gamzee hooks one big foot around the leg of Shinra's chair, pulling the whole thing even closer to him him with a complete lack of propriety. Then he hooks his fingers in the smaller boy's tie, tugs him forward, and kisses him without even his usual greeting. Normally, when Gamzee kisses Shinra hello, it's sweet and maybe even a little shy, or comfortable and friendly. There's something harder about this one, deeper and more demanding and ultimately, quite unmistakably possessive. The Slytherin obviously doesn't care if they'll be spotted and told off for doing it - though really, they should be fine, since he's not bending the Ravenclaw back of the desk and making out with him for twenty minutes or anything.

When Gamzee finally pulls back, there's something harder to read than usual in his dark eyes, but his smile is languid and sly.] Not too motherfuckin' long.

[Shinra just barely manages to stifle a startled yelp as his chair is suddenly pulled forward. He instinctively raises his hands, bracing one against the desk and the other against Gamzee's shoulder in an attempt to keep his balance as well as he can before the other boy takes hold of his tie and pulls him into a kiss.

He freezes momentarily before slowly closing his eyes and moving his hand from the desk's surface to splay it between Gamzee's shoulderblades. There's something about this kiss that's almost consuming and just a bit volatile. It's a bit like brewing potions, in that the smallest factor can make the difference between creating something explosive and something wonderful.

He's more than a little flushed and his pupils are just a bit dilated when Gamzee pulls back, but he peers right up into the other boy's eyes nonetheless, smiling almost serenely.]

I did try to arrive as quickly as I could. How are you?

Better now, lovely. [And indeed, something in him seems to relax a bit at Shinra's reaction, as though he wasn't quite sure what his reception would be. He draws his fingers down the other boy's tie, running it between thumb and forefinger, then leans in to nuzzle at the Ravenclaw's hair briefly, like a friendly cat, before sinking back into his chair.] Ten motherfuckin' times better.

[He lowers his gaze, intently following Gamzee's hand with his eyes as it makes its way down his tie. His own hand idly traces nonsensical patterns over the surface of the Slytherin's robes, pausing momentarily and laughing softly as Gamzee nuzzles into his hair.]

I'm glad to hear that. You did seem rather unsettled earlier, so I was beginning to worry, but I suppose everything's alright now for the most part.

[He shifts as Gamzee settles back into his chair, leaning forward to glance over the assortment of books spread over the desk.]

Are you writing about omens?

Don't get no worry up in your pan about that. I'll take care of it. [Gamzee says, rather mysteriously, then looks down at the books himself.]

Yeah! For the assignment. Except I ain't really getting how come some things know what's going to happen and how come some things don't. Like animals, they be making sense to me, because animals know all sorts of crazy shit what people ain't got their knowledge about. But how do them clouds be knowing? Like, do someone else do the knowing for them? Motherfuckin' miracles. But the sun ain't hardly an omen for nothing, and it's a lot bigger, so how come it don't be telling shit?

[He shakes his head in wonder at the universe, snaking one long arm around Shinra's waist as the other boy leans forward.]

[He turns, peering into Gamzee's eyes once again.]

I'm not sure that's possible. I don't think I can really keep from thinking about you for very long. So, if something's wrong it would be virtually impossible for me to keep from worrying about it. And if there's something you need to look after, I'd be happy to help you with it.

[He smiles amiably before turning back to the books, shifting closer to Gamzee and leaning his head against his shoulder as the other boy's arm makes its way around his waist.]

I think animal knowledge is based mainly on experience or instinct. Although instinct is fascinating in of itself. I know it's mostly a product of the brain stem, I've never really been able to understand how any of that really works.
