*rather solemnly* Do you know, Bella, you could've had quite the career in penning grippingly horrific fiction.

Not really, but I've come across some rather accomplished legilimentes.

Sounds weird to make a plural out of that.

*she mock-curtsies*
And you've come across a very accomplished Occlumens. The one benefit to having a mind of many compartments is that it's near impossible to find what you're looking for.

I wouldn't know where to begin with it. :)

*laughs* That is indeed so. *more seriously* But when it's too cluttered and too compartmentalised, you start to lose track yourself.

Had to check the grammar and the dictionary for it, because the back of my mind kept telling me it was wrong. :)

*her smile is faint and thin*
Whoever said I had track of it in the first place? It... grew. Of its own accord.

How can you close it to intrusion from outside in that case? Are you aware of the boundaries of your mind?

I don't need to do a thing. It looks after itself. It has its own sentinels.

*blinks at her* Your mind protects itself?

Just a like a dog protects itself.
*she leans closer to whisper in his ear*
It bites.

*blinks again* It bites.

*she leans back, regarding him with a mild, curious expression*
Yes.

How so? Have you ever been up against your own mind for it to go after you, snapping it's jaws?

This is definitely the weirdest conversation Gideon has had so far. *shakes head in bemusement*

*her eyes narrow*
I don't like your tone, Prewett. I won't be mocked. I don't even know why I'm bothering to have this conversation.

And Bella is just a bit on edge now, I'm afraid.

*shrugs* Suit yourself. I found it rather fascinating, to be honest.
