Balam, huh? Thoundth fine with me. Levi would probably dig it. Thee wath very, you know-

[He waves a hand about faintly.]

Groovy? That ith tho outdated, but there ith theriouthly no other word to dethcribe her. Well, there'th "carpe diem", I gueth...

[glaringprotego]

[She laughs, shaking her head] Groovy? Really? Still I'm glad Levi helped you pick Balam. A Mayan god is purrobably a good name for you, right? All kneazels have a bit of an ego, hmn? [She would be sorry that she's so distracted from the conversation, but she can't quite pull her attention away from her new companion]

What did you do over there anyways?

[polariity]

Thee looked like thee thtepped out of the 70s! In a good way! I didn't know the 70s could look good!

[Seriously, Di! It made quite the conflict in his head. Avoiding the flood of cats around their feet, he steps closer and quietly slips an arm around her waist.]

A little bit of everything. Did you know that dugbog rethcueth are actually a thing? Went to check that out. Got lotht in a jungle and dethided that would be fun for a bit. Almotht got eaten by antsth. Wath poithoned. Got a couple thidejobth here and there, even with the dugbogth.

Altho, before you athk, I did buy a lot of thingth and they're already in my room. [He sighs happily.] I have a really good feeling about thome of them.

[glaringprotego]

[Her face lights up again, always eager to hear about animals from all over the world. Even if he left all the time, he always came back with the best stories] Really? Rescues--Art! [She would smack him but both hands are busy holding Balam and shifting would move his hand from her waist. So. She settles for a hard glare]

I swear if you were a little less lucky, you'd be dead somewhere with not a word to us and we'd always wonder where you'd gone and stop getting yourself into trouble. Really... And what crazy new things have you added to the piles in your room now? Nothing alive I hope.

[polariity]

What!? [IT WAS JUST ONE DRAGON god he hated that thing. He may have been slightly woozy from the venom, but he sticks true to how he told that thing that it was the reason why no one likes Slytherins.]

Lithten, it hath nothing to do with luck and everything to do with talent. I know what I'm doing! [Kind of.] I don't get into trouble. Trouble has me down on a matchmking thite and keepth following me.

And mmm... Define 'alive'.

[glaringprotego]

Talent smalent. You can claim it all you like, but we both know you get through half your scrapes by dumb luck. Always doing and then thinking after. Trouble doesn't find you, you go out there and hunt it down and ask it to tea.

[She finally shifts the kneazel to a shoulder, where he promptly starts kneading through her hair and somewhat gloating his superior position to the rest of the cats] Alive as in moving or speaking. [She grabs both his suspenders in her hands and shifts to her tiptoes so she can look him eye to eye] I'd rather not come back home to your room spilling out into the hallway again or a herd of puffskeins eating through our kitchen.

[polariity]

Pft. You're completely wrong. I don't take it to tea.

I take it to have crepeth.

[He cracks a slight grin before- oh shit, she's aggravated. Go easy on the suspenders! Art looks considerably more awkward.]

Well, uh... I am pretty thure it moveth, but I don't think it thpeakth.

[glaringprotego]

[Her annoyance lessens somewhat, as she blurts out the first thing that comes to mind.] I could go for some crepes. Why don't you take us to have crepes more often.

And can it get out of your room? [She isn't grabbing his suspenders anymore, just holding them and tapping a few fingers against his chest] Destroy any furniture or slow moving creatures?

[polariity]

What, do you want crepeth now? [Huh he's hungry now. Has he even eaten today? He can't remember. They should do that.]

It miight be able to get out of my room. I don't think it dethtroyth anything and I think it jutht bugth animalth a little...

[glaringprotego]

Yes actually--but that's beside the point. If I come home to a mess I am making you clean it up. I'll send an owl round to the neighbors and ask them to keep an eye on the place until we head home.

...And now you should make me some crepes.

[polariity]

Hey, it'sth more creepy than anything, you're worrying too much!

And doethn't thith plathe therve crepeth by now?

[glaringprotego]

Oh now you've got creepy things in our house, hmn? [At this point any actual annoyance has melted into teasing.]

This place does not serve crepes because this is not Beauxbatons my dear. Besides, wouldn't you make it better? With all your expurrience? [Really she just wants crepes, but she's pouring on the charm. Or as much charm as a small woman with a tangled mess of hair with a two headed kneazle draped over her shoulder can have at least.]

[polariity]

It looked interethting! [Like all those other things he has stored away in his room!]

Yeth, well, they're heathenth who don't know good food. England ith where cuithine goeth to die. I jutht know enough- oh my god, you jutht made another cat pun didn't you? [He looks fondly exasperated.] You are unbelievable.

[glaringprotego]

Right. [And with that, the subject is dismissed until she recalls it again. Just like a thousand other topics]

England is not that bad! You're just a snob about food that's all--[And then she recalls her mission to get crepes out of this man one way or another. And her arms quickly slide up to wind around his neck] But that's what makes you such a good cook! And I'm sure a man of your considerable talents wouldn't mind making me a feast. [Wicked grin] I don't know what you could pawssibly be talking about. Purrhaps you're just lion.

[polariity]

That maketh me a bathic cook, Di, and oh my god I thwear if you keep doing that I am getting on thith broom and hiding in the Forbidden Foretht.

[glaringprotego]

[She can't help herself now. Besides she has both arms around your neck and she's got that smirk that says she's not letting go] Aw but Art, don't you enjoy my puns? Purrhaps I should start you out with mewre basic ones. Pawful is pretty basic! [GRIIIN]

[polariity]

[Uh oh, both arms. He tries to straighten up as much as possible.]

Di, I have known you for a decade and then thome. I know all your god-awful cat punth. I with I didn't, becauthe I could be uthing that RAM thpathe for important thingth, but I do, and it ith a horror.

[glaringprotego]

[She rolls her eyes and sighs]

What on earth is RAM space? But fiiine I'll stop. [grin] If you get your French butt in the castle and make me some crepes.

[polariity]

[There's a look on his face as if she's murdered his first born. An event that, by the way, would possibly get less reaction from him than if she cleaned out his room.]

Thtupid magic-blind people, I thwear. It maketh me cry. I'm not thure if I'm in any fit condition to cook.

[glaringprotego]

Hey, I'm not magic-blind, I just don't know all your weird sayings. [She huffs] Are you saying every muggle would understand what you're saying? And you aren't crying so you're purrfectly fit.

[polariity]

Well not every muggle, but every thpethieth hath itsth idiotsth.

Tho, crepeth?

[glaringprotego]

Are you calling me an idiot? I'm offended. I don't even know if crepes will solve it.

[polariity]

Oh my. Will I have to offer thomething elthe up to thoothe your rage?

[glaringprotego]

You may just have to. I don't know what could help though.

[polariity]

[He leans in to kiss her ear amidst all that hair.]

No idea at all?
