[She's lucky she caught him when he'd just laid down otherwise he'd be sleeping like the dead. As it is though, he jerks awake and sits up, blinking blearily up at her and putting his glasses back on with a wan smile.]

Oh, hey Aranea. No it's- [yawn] fine, just a bit tired is all.

[Notes her badge with a small grin.]

You suit being a Prefect.

[She adjusts her own glasses as she steps in, giving him a pleasant smile]

Couldn't sleep? I understand that completely. Hopefully it won't be a long day then.

[Here her smile widens. Yes someone is excite]

Thank you! I'm terribly excited, but I imagine that could be said for all the other 5th years chosen. It's something I've wanted to be, ever since I first came to Hogwarts, and to actually achieve it gives me great hope that I'll be able to achieve all my other goals in life. But I'm also so very nervous, so perhaps, if it's alright with you of course, I could come and ask you for tips and advice when needed? I know you too have a lot on your own plate, so I understand if you don't have the time.

[Smiles wryly, sitting up and straightening his clothes out a bit.]

You could say that...

[Runs a hand through his always messy hair and chuckles at her excitement.]

Well, I wasn't Prefect last year but I'll help as much as I can so feel free to bother me whenever. I doubt you'll need it though - you're way more responsible than any of your classmates I know of.

[Takes one of the unoccupied seats for herself, smoothing her robes out as she sits]

... You do look rather fatigued though... Have you been ill recently Bruce?

[If she didn't have a good amount of self restraint she'd be bouncing in her chair]

Oh! Then I suppose we will learn the role together then? My apologises for assuming, I have always been slightly out of date with the older students. And yes, I suppose that is true, but responsibility is not the only necessary thing... I only help I can live up to expectations. Surely you understand that feeling?

[Just shrugs and keeps smiling.]

Eh, something like that. It'll pass and it's not contagious, don't worry.

[Can tell she's bouncing on the inside and grins again.]

I do, and I'm not sure why they picked me for a Prefect but... The teachers are good judges - they wouldn't have given you the job if they didn't think you could do it.
taleweaving: (All pink and gold and glittering)

[personal profile] taleweaving 2012-09-02 01:20 am (UTC)(link)
Well I hope it passes soon then. It can be the absolute worst thing to be sick. I caught a small bug over the summer myself, and I had to miss the School Camp... Though in retrospect perhaps that was in fact a good thing.

[Can't help it it's another new adventure]

That is true. And I'm sure it holds the same for you Bruce. They must have had a reason, and it can be quite obvious to some. You're incredibly smart, and you're always kind to others.
greenmoonrising: (of a history untold)

[personal profile] greenmoonrising 2012-09-03 12:30 pm (UTC)(link)
The camp was a bit... chaotic, to put it in a word.

[Shrugs and runs a hand through his hair.]

I'm not, really - I think they might've been hoping that I'd be able to restrain Tony a bit if I were Prefect but then they're sadly misinformed.
taleweaving: (Against my new clothes)

[personal profile] taleweaving 2012-09-06 03:17 am (UTC)(link)
Yes... I knew that much. Quite a few students were injuryed, some more severly that others. [Including her baby sis. Not that anyone knows that they are indeed sisters] It was probably best to have not been there I suppose.

You are,. Aside from those who are cruel to others, though a sharp word can often be the least they deserve. And I'm sure you'll do your best. Mr Stark is a hard one to hold back, even the Headmaster knows that.

At least it got cleaned up fairly quickly...

[Rubs the back of his neck with a hand.]

I can try, but I'm only human.
taleweaving: (Or in the flood)

[personal profile] taleweaving 2012-09-07 01:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, I suppose that's a good point... It's terrible that it happened at all of course.

[light laugh]

That's all we all are Bruce, don't worry.
