Rating: PG-13
Alecto sat on the couch in the Slytherin common room, with her legs outstrectched. She had picked up a dark arts book earlier that day from the restricted section in the library. Faking signatures was one thing Alecto was very good at. She had already taken off her robes and changed into more comfortable, normal clothes. Taking a deep breath, she rolled a little towards the fire. It's such a nice thing to have some alone time... Especially since it seem so exhausting to find someone to copy an essay from.

"I... hate... high... ceilings! Good God, are they at all necessary!?" he asked himself with urgency as he rubbed his arms and shoulders for warmth, not even noticing that he wasn't alone.

Snickering, Alecto shook her head... Perhaps she could get her camera...

"I'm shedding my old skin, if you must know." he smirked, knowing that would irritate her to no end, as usual.

"Did you make an obscene gesture of some sort at me, Alecto? I'm surprised you'd be so cowardly as to cease before I saw it."

Her eyes lingered on his chest for a second, but she looked back down at her book quickly enough for it not to be noticed... hopefully.

"Surprisingly, I didn't plan upon making such a grand entrance. I thought I heard Severus, and opened the door to ask him something, but in the process let all the cold air in the room. Alas, such is my fate..."
It was partially true, at least. He didn't plan to completely go insane at the feeling of cold air upon his skin, but he did plan to come down where he knew she was at least provocatively clothed. He wanted to see if his suspicions were correct: that she just puts on an act of hatred to disguise her attraction... And so far things were going well.

This was interesting... the unforgiveables... They had only breifly mentioned those in class.

"There's really no need to be so hostile, darling; we're both Slytherins, of course."
Since she seemed so absolutely enthralled with that book (though he knew it was just a ploy not to have to make conversation--not that he thought she would anyway, of course...), he decided to walk out of his happy circle of warmth and look over her shoulder. As he arrived behind her seat and read the heading "Unforgiveables," he felt a chill. And not just because he wasn't near the fire anymore. Though he had been in Slytherin for over five years now, he had never been pressured or alienated because he wasn't obsessed with the Dark Arts like some of his classmates. Of course he was intrigued; what wizard wasn't? And he knew he had some sort of Dark tendencies because of his placement in this House. So he decided to grow a spine and started reading the chapter.

Wait... A smirk grew on Alecto's face. "I forgot my promise to you, my dear friend."

She was preparing to hex him, and in his rush to get to the warmth, he hadn't brought his wand. Though, maybe he could use that...
"I'm wandless. Would you still do it, Alecto? Would you still attack me, though I'm defenseless? Are you that merciless?" He smirked, teasing her, though knowing it was a bad idea, considering he really was defenseless. But he couldn't very well show his fear, now could he?

"And you know perfectly well that I am incapable of not speaking to you, darling Alecto!" He decided to be perky now, knowing that would annoy her even more than simple conversation. "I simply must know what's going on inside that gorgeous but sinister head of yours! So spill it," he ended very sternly, hoping the sudden change of tone would earn him some sort of reaction.

She laughed a little. "Trying to get something out of me, Rosier? That won't be happening anytime soon."
December 3 2005, 02:05:14 UTC 6 years ago
"Not necessarily out of you, darling..." He grinned devilishly.
