get away from yourself

[darkireland]

 Regan is sitting in the grass near the Forbidden Forest, melting the snow with her wand to look for a four leaf clover. She's shivering like mad, and she knows this is insane, but she needs to get her mind off things, namely Roxy and her recent antics.

What the-- REGEN! The hell are you doing?!

[darkireland]

Darling, I've never found a four leaf clover in all of my life. So s'what I'm doing, lookin' for one.

*pulls cloak tighter around her and shudders*

Or I'm tryin' to get mi mind off things and doing it in an incredibly stupid way.

*looks up at him, sheepish*

I can't feel m'legs.

[lotsalore]

No shit, you look like you've been out here for hours.

*takes off his cloak and throws it around her shoulders, cuz he's a Nice Guy like that :P*

Geez, why can't you Gryffindors just read a book like sensible people? *he rolls his eyes, but he's obviously just joshing*

[darkireland]

*frowns*

You crazy? I'm practically numb, so I can't really feel the cold anymore. You, however, are goin' to freeze your bits off. *giggles softly* But thanks.

Because if we were sensible people we'd be Ravenclaws.

[lotsalore]

*stuffs his hands in his pockets and hunches his shoulders in, trying to ward off the cold breeze*

m'Fine.

Yes, exactly. Thank Merlin for us, yeah? C'mon, let's get you inside-- there're loads of other ways to keep your mind off things that don't involve freezing cold weather.

[darkireland]

*scrutinizes him for a moment before standing up and wrapping his cloak around the both of them*

Y'not, liar.

Yes, you're right. But m'not much of a Wizard's Chess type of girl, n last time I played explodin' snap my eyebrows got singed off. So I guess the only solution is hot chocolate.

[lotsalore]

*omg waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarmth*

I was. *stubborn*

Hot chocolate is good. Very good. See? You could have been in Ravenclaw if you wanted.

[darkireland]

*grins*

Alright, mate, whatever yah say.

I suppose. I don't feel like a very Gryffindor type of girl anyway.

[lotsalore]

Oh I don't know. Standing around in the freezing cold weather, looking for something that likely isn't even there in the first place? All to take your mind off things? Sounds pretty Gryffindor to me.

[darkireland]

Well, other than that, I feel misplaced. Besides, I, for one, know m'not brave enough to be in Gryffindor. *shrugs*

[lotsalore]

*glances at her, sensing this is a Moment*

..what makes you say that?

[darkireland]

Just certain past events. 'Sides, I dun think I could go around fighting evil n all that.

[lotsalore]

Ah, well. There's a difference between actually doing it, and thinking you could, yeah? If you went around thinking you could battle evil, and such, that just makes you arrogant, not brave.

[darkireland]

*blushes slightly* Ah, you Ravenclaws make me feel so silly with myself.

[lotsalore]

*sad smile* Sorry. Sometimes I think I'm helping, but I only just make it worse.

[darkireland]

*pats his hand*

No, you've definitely helped. I just... feel stupid for not thinking of that m'self.
