[greenmoonrising]

Hey, where are you? We were supposed to meet in the library over an hour ago. 

Comments

[arrogantalloy]

We were?

[greenmoonrising]

Yeah - with the papers for advanced Potions? I thought we were going to work on them together. Where are you?

[arrogantalloy]

Right. Papers, that's right. Uh, I'm in the dorm?

[greenmoonrising]

What are you doing? Get your ass down here!

[arrogantalloy]

I was charming creeping roses around Herbert's bed.

Uh, I'll head down now.

[greenmoonrising]

What, why were you doing that!?

[Text to action]

[arrogantalloy]

Because I have a thing for him. Give me a minute.

[Tony closes the journal and starts collecting the right books and heads down to the library, grinning a little dorkily as he enters.]

[greenmoonrising]

[Just stares at journal and then at Tony as he arrives.]

You... have a thing for Herbert...?

[arrogantalloy]

[Looks pleased with himself as he sits down across from him, pulling his books out.]

Yeah. You know he has this real cute look when he's flustered?

[He opens up his books, acting as if his liking Herbert was an obvious an natural thing. Then he looks up.

Wait, I didn't tell you?

[greenmoonrising]

[Stares. Stiffly:]

No. You didn't.

[arrogantalloy]

Oh.

[He shrugs.]

Must have thought it was just so obvious. I mean, Sherlock's been bugging me about it, so I guess you just knew too.

So what part of the assignment do I need to research?

[greenmoonrising]

I... [Looks mildly ill and very pale, eyes going a bit green as he stares down at his books.]

The history of- since when are you attracted to Herbert?

[arrogantalloy]

[Tony looks at him, his eyebrow slowly raising in concern.]
Are you alri-?

[He stares at him for a moment after the questions being asked, as if a little confused as to why he's being asked this.]

Uh, I realised it a few days ago?

[greenmoonrising]

[Stares longer.]

I... thought you didn't even like him that much?

[arrogantalloy]

Nah, I mean he can be a bit... At times. But other wise he's great. He is a bit squirmy when I try to kiss him though. But it's kind of cute too.

[He completely oblivious to the starting.]

[greenmoonrising]

You... kissed him.

[Growing increasingly irritated.]

[arrogantalloy]

Yeah.

[He grins. He get's the feeling something is wrong, but the potion's blocking that thought.]

Got into his bed once too.

[greenmoonrising]

[Looking increasingly uncomfortable, eyes going green.]

Tony- Uh, sorry, I'm not feeling so well, maybe we can pick this up some other time... [Begins gathering up his books.]

[arrogantalloy]

What? Why aren't feeling well, what's happened?

[Tony looks at his watch.]

We're not even at a full moon yet.

[He's back to looking confused again.]

[greenmoonrising]

Yeah, maybe I ate something weird. I'll catch up with you later.

[Shoulders bag and stands up.]

[arrogantalloy]

Ate something we- You barely eat, let alone something that's weird. What's really wrong?

[Even though he's under a spell he still knows well enough that Bruce is very careful about everything he does, so his eating something weird is super strange and confusing to him, and it shows.]

[greenmoonrising]

I'll be fine, I just gotta go- [Starts shuffling off, really quickly.]

[arrogantalloy]

[He stands quickly and comes after him, grabbing from his elbow.]

Bruce, wait. What the hell is this? Something isn't right here.

[greenmoonrising]

I'll see you later.

[Yeah, walks VERY quickly out of the Library.]

[arrogantalloy]

[Looking stunned, utterly stunned. Bruce manages to get out of the library before Tony glances at his books and chases after him. Calling out after him once he's out of the library and in full view again.]
