Two weeks at home.

Two weeks managing to avoid getting a black eye.

It was nice while it lasted.

Bloody wankers.

What about running away then? Surely there is a friend you can stay with.

[rule_britannia]

Not an option.

Look kid I can tell you're trying to help.
This is just my lot until they leave home.

[There are a few ink spots on the page, as if he was trying to come up with something else to say]

I'm sorry.

[rule_britannia]

[Now there's a long pause from Arthur's side, too.. and a few spots that don't quite look like ink]

It's fine.

BABY /hugs Arthur

[thesmallesttrickster]

I'm Loki, by the way.

;3;

[rule_britannia]

Hey Loki.
I'm Arthur.

[thesmallesttrickster]

What year and house are you?

[rule_britannia]

I'll be in sixth year after summer. Slytherin.

[thesmallesttrickster]

Cool! So do you know what you want to do after Hogwarts?

[rule_britannia]

Not yet.

Father expects me to get a job with the Ministry.

[thesmallesttrickster]

What kind of job?

[rule_britannia]

I don't think he cares.

I don't want to join the Ministry anyway.

[thesmallesttrickster]

What do you want to do?

[rule_britannia]

I hadn't given it much thought.

[thesmallesttrickster]

You could raise dragons!

[rule_britannia]

... I could do that.

[thesmallesttrickster]

It sounds very interesting. Or you could start an apothecary!

[rule_britannia]

Sounds like you're just full of ideas.
How old are you, anyway.

[thesmallesttrickster]

11. I'll be starting Hogwarts in the fall.

[rule_britannia]

Heh.
Figures.
I'm taking advice from a child.

[thesmallesttrickster]

I've been told I'm quiet intelligent and well spoke for my age. And you don't have to take any of the advise I give you.

[rule_britannia]

Evidently you are, or I might have pegged you for a first year sooner.
Ah well. Don't look a gift horse in the mouth and all that.

Where are you from?

[thesmallesttrickster]

Right now we live in Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch, Wales. But our family is originally from Norway. We moved here when I was younger.

[rule_britannia]

Bloody hell.

I bet that name is fun to fill in on paperwork.

[thesmallesttrickster]

There are abbreviations, but I don't like using them.
