So! Um.
Entertain a hypothetical situation with me here if you would chaps!
Say someone you knew and were friends with had been dancing around a topic for a good two months and some change due to a bit of a personal fear of how others might react to the knowledge.
Say erm... That this person was dancing around a topic that possibly had a bit to do with romance!
A lot to do with romance really. *tugs collar*
Lets just... hypothetically assume that perhaps this person is a bit afraid to... um. Tell folks...
About a romantic endeavor of theirs.
Because um.
Well you see...
Ah, yes. I feel like this would have happened so I will take it from here. Jake is pursuing a romantic relationship with I, Rose Lalonde. I worry that if I don't interject now, he may pass out and never get this done.
A good day to you too. ;)
Oh.
Right.
Well yes there you have it!!
[Dual-post! Replies will come from both Jake and Rose. It's about time they came out in the open with this, they've been dating since January 27th. Whoops.

Slowly, he reaches down and takes his wand out of his pocket.]
Wand out, Jakey boy.
dreamwidth pls give me notifs
What if I didn't bring it?
punches it
Then I'd say you haven't been paying enough attention in Defense Against the Dark Arts, have you? You shouldn't ever leave without your wand, kid.
hhhh
...I always have it, but. [He's holding it in as much of a submissive gesture as one can with a magic stick. That is, limp-wristed and pointed at his own feet.]
no subject
So.
[A small pause, for dramatic effect.]
Do you care enough about Rose to take me on in a duel?
no subject
If that's what you need for me to prove it to you, then yes. [Oh God oh God oh God.]
no subject
Alright, kid. The first thing you do in a duel is bow at each other. So come on, show some respect.
[He's just going to tilt slightly in a bow, eyes on Jake the entire time.]

Flipendo!
[It's a simple knockback spell for now, because. He can't hurt a student. That would be bad.]
no subject
Finite!
[It's just an f-charm sort of duel.]
no subject
Really? That all you got?
[He says, as if he's actually playing this little game for real. He hasn't even brought out the nonverbal magic yet though. Just wait.]
Stupefy!
[A jet of red light flies from his wand towards Jake.]
no subject
[He's not terribly agile, but he manages to scoot out of the way of that one and fire a wind-spell back.]
Ventus!
no subject
One of us is gonna have to up the ante a little eventually.
[And Bro is lifting his wand and giving it a twirl around his body as he nonverbally casts a disillusionment charm on himself. It doesn't take long and he's like a chameleon, blending into the surroundings. It's made even better since it's dark. He's practically invisible now.
He's just going to slowly move around Jake now, ninja like movements so the teen can't hear him.]
no subject
[But when Bro vanishes, he has that much more of an advantage because of Jake's already poor eyesight. Even with his glasses, nighttime has always given him trouble because any kind of light used to see reflects off his glasses and it's just a nightmare. He tightens his grip on his wand and moves himself, surprisingly intelligently, to be backed up against the trunk of a large tree. This way he has a better vantage point and his complete blind spot is taken care of by way of foliage.]
[He's not gonna waste spells on something he can't see, though, so he just watches.]
no subject
[He sounds vaguely taunting, and he smirks as Jake backs up against a tree. Resourceful little shit, isn't he? He's impressed. But it gives Bro a good chance to screw with him. Being a ventriloquist, he's good at throwing his voice, making it sound like it isn't where it's supposed to be. Sometimes? He enhances this with magic.
Which is exactly what he's going to do. So when he speaks, it's a whisper and it sounds like it's directly behind Jake, even if he couldn't possibly be.]
Behind you...
no subject
[And Jake falls right for it, spinning away from the tree right about the moment he realizes Bro couldn't possibly actually be there.]
no subject
Expelliarmus! Levicorpus!
[A spell to disarm Jake, and then hoist him upside down by the ankle to finish things off.]
no subject
no subject
Once there, gives him a good, long stare.]
You had it in you to sass me, follow me out here in fuckoff nowhere, stand up to me and fight me. All in the name of dating my daughter.
[A long silence.
And then he holds up a fist.]
Welcome to the family.
no subject
[But...]
[Well, suffice to say the offered fistbump isn't what he was expecting. He goes slack, and slowly brings a hand up to tap his fist to Bro's.]
Uh. Wow-- I. Thank you.
no subject
[It doesn't mean he's exactly happy about it, but this is about as good as it's gonna get, Jake. He flicks his wand and undoes the spell, letting Jake fall to the ground.]
But just so we're clear, if you ever break her heart, I'm breaking yours. Understood?
no subject
Of course.
no subject
[He steps over and picks a twig out of Jake's hair with a light roll of his eyes.]
Now go get your shit together, because you're coming back to our place. Who the fuck spends Easter holidays alone? Not you anymore, that's for fuckin' sure.
no subject
[He flinches just barely when Bro reaches over, and then kind of balks at his assertive request. Was it a request or a demand? He squirmed a little.] Ah, I mean... It's all right, I really don't mind staying here. [He's going to get scolded.]
