008 Roaches check in, but they don't check out.

I'm well excited for qudditch, it's hard not to be when your captain is Tony Stark, who is amazing by the way! We've got such a great team, it's going to be brilliant!

I'm thinking of getting a new broom, any suggestions?

[Filtered Privately to Sherlock]

I want to apologize for what happened.

~~I will never understand your boner for Tony Stark.~~

You're blogging about Quidditch now? After all those wonderful discussions about kitten feet and drying towels?

I'm disappointed.

. . .

I never actually really discussed kitten feet.

I [Ink blots as he tries to decide how to word what he wants to say.]

Think all that stuff is a bad idea to talk about, I guess...

Sorry.

Our team is going to be absolutely brilliant!

Oh, oh, Mum said she'd spring for a new one for me! I've got the new Quality Quidditch Supplies catalog, let me bring it down to the common room?

Well, we discussed kitten feet, anyway.

I always it was interesting, and most people seemed to have a good time with it, but I suppose it is your choice. I enjoyed your little non-sequitors, if it's any consolation.

Even that might be an understatement, yeah?

That would be great! Be right there.

[And he will be when she decides to, sat in their typical almost private area of the common room, looking still kind of crappy and sleep deprived. Despite all that, she will be greeted with a warm smile.]

Yes, that is true. You were more-so surprised I'd actually thought about it.

You think so? I mean, most people seeming to have a good time? I thought I was starting to annoy people...

I'm surprised at most of the things you think about. That's what makes it so interesting, to me.

Really, I think if people are so annoyed by it, they can simply turn the page and ignore it. No one's time is being wasted against their will. Some might be short with you, but you do have a tendency to question the mundane things we take for granted, and on the whole, people don't like little kinks in their routine.

Personally, I think the Quidditch Cup's already practically got our names on it. We just need to make it official.

I'll be right down. With tea, like usual.

[And she is, balancing a tray with chamomile tea, two cups, a set of cookies, and - somehow - levitating the catalog, finding that spot and settling in.]

I'm beginning to get used to this. Like some kind of routine. It's comforting.

I don't think it's really that interesting. You're glorifying something that doesn't really qualify.

Sherlock and I had a row over it, so it annoyed him enough... He tried to take my journal. It was horrid.

Thanks, though. I'll think about it. It was just really off-putting, I don't want to offend anyone else.

How's Trollki?

[He watches her with adoration and tries to offer help.]

Me too. This time I've come bearing gifts too though.

[He holds up a box of chocolates that had been resting on the table, offering it to her when she got settled.]

Not as good as your tea and cookies, but.. You know. I tried.

I don't think that is true. I derive pleasure from our little chats, and actually, I find it a rather welcome sort of release. It's something trivial I can spend my time on, and let my higher faculties recharge while still maintaining a level of intellectual stimulation.

That does sound horrid, but Sherlock is only one person. Do you value his opinion so much that you would allow it to over-power your own?

He's excellent, as always. He's become quite keen on the tapping, although he still has yet to manage something coherent.

Fair enough, but you could have just easier said you like talking to me, you know.

I don't know, he's sort of a sod. Okay, no, he's really an utter sod. But.. I don't know.

That's good, we'll totally have to work on that some more when we both get time, yeah?

Maybe, but I like my way of saying it better.

It's understandable. Conflict can be, heh heh, conflicting. And there is nothing wrong with giving in. It just means that he has a more dominant and stalwart will.

Naturally. He seems to respond better to you as a teacher, anyway.

Now you're just being difficult.

You're trying to get me to disagree and prove you wrong by continuing with my midnight musings. I'm not stupid.

I wonder why... You'd think he'd be more comfortable with you teaching him.

I never claimed to be easy, Peter.

Alas, you have discovered my dastardly designs. What ever shall I do? You have bested me, Oh Ponderer of the Night. I lay myself ever at your feet.

Please, who listens to their parents?

I guess that's true. But there's nothing wrong with going the easy way sometimes.

Hush up! Either way it worked, because losing to Sherlock is really something I wouldn't favour.

...I do.

I will take that into consideration.

Good boy. That's the spirit.

Oh. Well. My parents insisted that magic wasn't real and that I was a fool for believing in it. So. I stopped listening a long time ago.
