Festive was hardly the term for Mandy's room. Not one for much holiday cheer herself, she had thankfully been spared the fairy lights, garland and mistletoe that graced the halls of the house. Though they certainly hadn't spared her door that courtesy. It was the first christmas she'd spend without her family, and Monday would be 12th full moon she had spent as a werewolf. One year with the curse; a lifetime to go ( ... )

After the glowing... glowiness of the rest of the house, the quiet normality of Mandy's little sanctuary was much appreciated. She was tucked into that pathetic excuse for an armchair and Perry raised a brow as he shut the door behind him.

"You look cozy." He'd had been in Mandy's room less times than he'd been in any of his other packmates', so he took a moment to take in the space... and then another to decide where he belonged.

And to remember just why he'd come in the first place.

He leaned his back against the door and crossed his arms. "All right?" They hadn't spoken much in the midst of their Ministry visits. His own tag was notably concealed within the very high collar of his shirt.

Eyeing him surreptitiously she slowly closed her book and set it off to the side. Rare was it, extremely rare rather, that Perry came for a visit, and now that he had he looked rather uncomfortable with himself, or perhaps it was just her. Either way something was bothering Peregrin Derrick; so why had he brought himself to her room for?

"Should that surprise you?" She paused to push at her glasses, "I ought to for as much time as I spend in this chair."

Her grin was somewhat teasing as she shifted her weight against the arm rest. "As well as can be expected, you?"

Small fingers pulled softly at the collar around her neck that always seemed to irritate, before sighing and giving up altogether. "Something on your mind, Perry?"

It was more than obvious that something was on his mind, but perhaps rarer than his visits were the times that Perry opened up, but if he had come with a mind to talk she could atleast help him along. So much like herself was he with his guarded nature that Mandy had always felt more comfortable around ( ... )

He semi-grinned. How did his life come to be filled with nothing but cheeky girls? "It's just an unusual sight. You, comfortable." Not to say that she shouldn't be comfortable in her own room, but that she rarely seemed so outside of it. He'd be lying to say he couldn't relate; it was simply an observation.

To the next question his grin turned somewhat wry. "Much the same." He felt a pang of... something unpleasant, as he watched her fiddle with her collar. He was still adjusting to his-though in all truth he doubted he would ever "adjust," or even learn to ignore it.

Well, to the meat of the conversation. He glanced away briefly, deciding how to broach the topic. It shouldn't be so difficult... what was he worried about? It felt strange to say-like a betrayal, and why he should care about that was another question. After all, this was always supposed to be temporary ( ... )
