antiOTP, Pansy

[cat_inthe_sun]

Jackrabbit is a little sad. Just a little. the teensiest bit.

He tried to be friendly to Pansy, but she didnt like him. He wasn't sure why. And that made him very sad.

Right now, he is sitting crosslegged in the hallway in front of his room, sewing up a flimsy.

He keeps his grip on her.

"Our times are not the same. Is body taboos, then? I tell you again, I meant nothing but to kiss you, because you please me and I wished to show you. Is our times, makes us communicate wrongly and for that I am sorry."

[parkinsonpink]

She hears his words, but the pain of his hold distracts her. "You're hurting me," she says through clenched teeth.

[cat_inthe_sun]

He lets go, bristling, fighting an urge jump up and down screaming in frustration.

In the House, they were allowed to do that if they wished. When you're mad, you have that excuse.

But he is not in the House. He is in the mansion.

So he points at her, as if to speak, but nothing comes out.

[parkinsonpink]

She rubs her wrist, looking at him warily as she backs away. She says nothing, but watches him. They aren't in his time, or hers; other than Obliviating him and leaving the mansion immediately, she doesn't know what to do without any repercussions.

*looking a little scared and very much torn*

[cat_inthe_sun]

He lowers his hands, shoulders sagging, looking quite defeated.

"I'm sorry." he mumbles. "My temperment is usually not so....pologies."

[parkinsonpink]

Keeping her eyes on him, she lowers herself to pick up her wand from the floor.

*after several moments* "They mean something in my world...at least to me," she says in a softer tone, referring to kissing.

[cat_inthe_sun]

He fidgets.

"Mean something to me too. But not the same thing, it seems."

[parkinsonpink]

She shares another awkward moment; if she could cast a Memory charm on herself to forget all of this, she would. But those have always been tricky things, and she's not about to put her mind at risk.

She approaches him and shifts towards his bedroom doorway, looking at the burnt mess of material. She's not sure how much can be fixed, but she casts a "Reparo" anyway, watching the flimsy return to its normal appearance.

[cat_inthe_sun]

He watches her, goes to the flimsy and picks it up, sighing. He sets it on the bed and sits, elbows on knees.

"I'm afraid I am terrible at these things. Is my own bad judgement."

[parkinsonpink]

"...me too." *turns to leave*

*soft and sad* "I'm sorry..."

[cat_inthe_sun]

"No apologies," he says, his voice just as soft.

[parkinsonpink]

She stands in the doorway, not facing him for several moments, deciding on what to do. When she does, Pansy finds herself walking back to Jackrabbit, gently taking the flimsy from him. With her other hand she lightly brushes his hair from his face, looking into his eyes.

[cat_inthe_sun]

He looks up at her, golden brows knitting up.

"We...are still friends, maybe?

[parkinsonpink]

"I don't know. We can...try, right?" Pansy bends down to press a soft kiss to the top of his head.

[cat_inthe_sun]

He leans against her a little.

"Okay," he says. "We will try."

[parkinsonpink]

She strokes his hair, nodding once before turning away and leaving, the flimsy in her hand.
