33 sucks.
Out of all of the numbers out there, it's probably the worst number by far. I mean, what's even the point of it? 32 is better. 31 is better. 33 is absolutely pointless in its existence. And it's an odd number. Odd. Odd numbers suck, but 33 is the suckiest odd number out of all of them.
There's nothing even ironic about it. I can find irony in every other number. But not this one. It's like anti-irony in its most natural form.
We're wizards, we should be able to magically take this number out of existence.
Someone invent a spell for that.

[Smirk.]
London? What would we do in London? [Such a pureblood.]
no subject
I dunno. Explore. Get lunch? Do all the shit we can't do in Hogsmeade? It's a big place, I'm sure there's plenty to do. [And then in a small moment of word vomit,] Maybe I could take you back to my place later.
[A pause. Because... does he really want Murdoc to see his place? He isn't entirely sure.] But mostly London.
no subject
Besides, what better way to make Dirk feel young and sexy than- yeah okay he should pay attention to the conversation]
Whatever you think is best, it's your birthday afterall. [He sneers because he knows Dirk is trying to cover that up] Are you going to show me your floors?
no subject
And the floor comment does nothing to put that thought away. Goddamn it.]
I'm gonna punch you... [It's a whisper, hopefully Murdoc doesn't hear. Or hopefully he does.] So anyway, yeah. Let's go.
no subject
He leans back and tilts his head to the side, raising an eyebrow.]
Right now? Like this? [He looks down at his clothing and Dirk's clothing.]
no subject
Also he can't deny the fact that Murdoc has a point there.]
Oh. Well, okay. After we change, I guess.
[And that's when he has a sudden realization.]
Do you have any... er. Normal clothes?
no subject
So, The kiss is entirely innocent.]
Good.
[He raises both eyebrows, scowling.]
These are normal clothes.
no subject
You are so full of shit, Murdoc. And it's thanks to you that now he's fucking wanting it. But no, he's not going to get it. Because he really does want to go out for his birthday and not just stay in screwing all day. Because that really is what would happen and Murdoc should know that.]
Let me rephrase that. Do you have any Muggle clothes. I'm assuming from your answer that would be a no, though. We're gonna have to raid my closet, I just know it.
no subject
He huffs, folding his arms over his chest.]
Why do I need muggle clothin'? [Nose crinkle.] Do you have anythin' nice?
no subject
And wow, you're such a little drama queen, Murdoc.]
You need muggle clothes because you're dressed like somebody that doesn't belong in this century. It'll raise a few questions. And of course I have something nice, did you see what I wore on our date? If that's not nice, you've got some fuckin' high standards! Come on.
[He stands up, reaching out to take Murdoc by the arm so that he can take him to his closet.]
You're not wearing a suit, though. Nah, I'm gonna dress you in something way more casual.
no subject
I fit perfectly in this century! You're the ridiculous one with the ridiculous shades!
[He growls in frustration because HIS CLOTHING HAS BEEN INSULTED and also he's getting fashion anxiety and it hurts to imagine what other ugly sweaters he might have.]
Why can't I wear a suit?
no subject
Not in this muggle century.
[You insulted his shades, and yet you don't see him flying off the handle. Even though that does get to him slightly. He likes his shades, goddamn it.]
Because. Stop getting so pissy, Jesus Christ. Is it so wrong that I want a day where I don't get fucking stared at? It's already gonna happen anyway, since I'm not gonna be wearing my shades. [For you.] So the least you could do is compromise a little and not be such a diva.
[They're in his quarters now, and he pulls them over to his closet, opening the door. It's nothing too large, but it's big enough that the two of them can walk in it if they don't mind being a little cramped. At a glance, it seems pretty average. Lots of white polos, and other shirts of varying colours. On closer inspection, there are a few things you don't ever see Bro wearing that look a bit different than what would normally wear. Mostly because he buys them and never wears them, because what is fashion. It's easier to just wear simple things.]
no subject
Who cares what muggles think? I don't!
[He crinkles his nose a little and tries not to pout but now he feels a little bad. Okay no he feels very bad.]
You don't have to take your shades off if you don't want to. [He grumbles and trudges toward the clothes, picking through the clothes. Occasionally he lets out a disapproving tut as he comes across a hideous sweater or a garish colour.
Then he pulls out a black coat and holds it against himself with a thoughtful hum. You could be here a while.]
no subject
He also realizes that he made Murdoc feel bad, which wasn't exactly his intention. Maybe he himself acted sort of like a diva. But still, he doesn't like being stared at. I mean, he can ignore it and he doesn't really care what anyone thinks. At least most people. But when it comes to his eyes, it's different.]
I want to, though...
[Because Murdoc likes it when he does, and he doesn't want Murdoc judging him for them all day.
He picks through the clothes, too, trying to ignore the way Murdoc makes noises as he looks through them. Goddamn it man, stop judging him for his clothes. He's half tempted to force him into the orange sweater just out of spite. His glorious, warm, beautiful orange sweater.
After a few seconds, he turns to Murdoc, holding up a rather plain looking blue shirt, when he notices Murdoc with the coat.]
That's pretty nice.
no subject
If you insist.
[He does like it, he likes it a lot. He also likes it when Dirk is comfortable, so he'll do everything in his power to make him comfortable.
He nods, draping the coat over his arm and squinting at the shirt in his hand before stepping forward and continuing the search.
A long while later he has a black button up shirt, a coat and black pants.]
Should I change here?
no subject
He just nods lightly at Murdoc's comment, not wanting to bring attention to how big a deal it actually is, and he too goes back to looking, only turning his attention back to Murdoc when he speaks.]
...Seriously? I've already se-
[But then he has the sudden realization that if Murdoc changes in front of him, they probably won't be leaving the closet any time soon.]
Actually, on second thought, I'm gonna go out.
[The reason why should be pretty obvious, and he pushes past Murdoc and closes the door behind him without another word.]
no subject
He tilts his head to the side as Dirk trails off, giving him a curious but unimpressed look. He's not CERTAIN where his mind is going, but he has an idea.]
As you wish. [He says, not bothering to check if Dirk has left the room before stripping out of his clothing. He's finding Dirk's determination so terribly adorable.
He's quite slow to change, mostly because he's fussing. He's managed to dig up a reasonably attractive non orange scarf to accompany his outfit, but he refuses to leave his boots. He assumes Dirk's feet are a different size anyway, if that saying is true.
Finally, he slinks out of Dirk's room feeling incredibly uncomfortable and awkward in clothes that aren't his.]
Have you ever actually worn any of this? [He asks, glancing down at his outfit.]
no subject
Waiting, knowing Murdoc's a few feet away naked and only separated by a door, makes it even more difficult to resist the temptation. But he does. Miraculously he does. See? He's not such a horn dog that he can't reign it in. He's really rather proud of himself though. It did take a lot of effort.
He looks up when Murdoc finally leaves the closet, and his eyebrows shoot up in surprise. God. damn. Murdoc looks way better in Muggle clothes than he ever thought he possibly could.]
I... uh, no. Not really.
no subject
Murdoc is most certainly the type of man who prefers to stay in and shag rather than going out, but Dirk's excitement is rubbing off on him. Honestly, getting out of Hogwarts for a while sounds like a damn good idea.
He runs a hand through his hair as Dirk looks at him. He feels strange in these clothes, and he wants to deny the fact that they feel comfortable. He's trying not to stare at his reflection on any possible surface.]
What a pity. I'm sure you'd look gorgeous in somethin' other than that shirt and those pants.
no subject
You always criticize the shit I wear. Have I ever said anything bad about the stuff you wear? Nope, so don't get all up in my grill about my polos.
[If he sounds grouchy, it's because it's taking a colossal effort not to jump his bones in that oufit.]
Anyway though, uh. You look good. We should go now.
no subject
He closes the distance between them and smooths out Dirk's shirt, fixing his collar before pressing a quick kiss to his cheek.]
Because you wear the same shit every day when you've got a closet full of perfectly functional clothes.
And you need not say anythin' bad about what I wear because there's nothin' wrong with my clothin'. [He pats his shoulder before stepping forward.]
C'mon then, let's go.
no subject
[You know what? He's just going to ignore it. Ignore it as best he can. It's really fucking hard to ignore that, though, because goddamn it he's really defensive over the stuff he wears sometimes. Why d'you think he wears simple shit in the first place? To avoid criticism. And also because it's just easier that way.]
Yeah, let's just go.
[He pushes past Murdoc, because screw you, he's gonna take the lead.
Also he's going to pointedly pop his collar back up when he's in Murdoc's sight, before stepping out the door as he begins heading towards the entrance hall.]
no subject
He lets Dirk walk ahead, sulking a bit as he does and burying his hands into his new coat pockets as he does. In fact, he's going to hunch a little. Yes, perfect, he is the perfect picture of a guilty, sulky man.
When they finally get to the entrance hall, he steps forward to bump his shoulder gently against Dirk's.]
You look gorgeous no matter what you wear.
no subject
So by the time that they make it and Murdoc speaks, he's in a better place and has realized he was being pretty dumb to have gotten irritated over it.]
Somebody's backtracking. [His tone is teasing though, and he just gives Murdoc a mischievous look out the corner of his eye.] I know you didn't mean it, no need to feel bad.
[He pushes the door to the castle open and steps out into the annoyingly chilled air. Fucking Christ he hates winter.]
no subject
He returns the look with a wry smile, poking his side playfully.]
I never said you looked bad in what you wear, I said you could stand to wear somethin' else. There's a difference.
[He says with a small nod, stepping out after Dirk and bracing a little. His other clothes are warmer, damn it.]
