WHO: Tony, and YOU
TONE: Confused and adventuours
RATING: PG
WHEN: December 1st through 3rd
WHERE: Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry
WHAT: Tony's woken up 5 years old, in a place he's never been before.
NOTE: Tony is going to be all over the place, so let me know where you've come across him.

Waking up. Tony finds himself in bed with somebody else. Sitting up Tony looks around the room then he stares at the older boy for a second before patting his face.

"Hey? Hey?"

What he doesn't know, is that the boy he's patting is Bruce.

After a while he finds himself away from Bruce and is exploring Hogwarts, looking to see what kind of place this is and what he can get up to.

[Rolls eyes.] Whatever you say, squirt. [Pokes.]

[Predictably. The boy squirms away from the poking]

I'm not a squirt!

[Chuckles.] Yeah you are. Anyway, almost done? We can go shrink a coat and scarf to fit you before going outside if you're still interested.

Squirts are like, people with chicken legs and are always sick. And stuff like that.

[He looks at his plate and nods]

But I don't need a coat, I'm good with the cold. I cn prove it too!

[He grins happily up at Bruce.]

You're wearing a coat, buster. Along with a scarf and gloves. [Snorts and gets up, waiting for Tony to follow.]

[He sags out of the chair and comes to Bruce's heel like a naughty dog.]

I'm going to looks stupid, its not even that cold.

It is, you just can't tell because of the castle heating. [Offers his hand for Tony to take.]

[Tony takes the hand, moving in close to him.]

But Castles are all big and drafty?

Not the magical kind. [Walks slowly for the dorms.]

Are you sure? I still don't really think it's going to be cold out there.

[Keeps up with him.]

Yeah I'm sure.

Wow, we just have ducted heating in our building. But that's because there are muggles below us.

Yeah? They good neighbours?

They come for parties. But I'm too young to be at them, so...

[He gives a big shrugs.]

Those kinds of parties can be boring anyway, I doubt you're missing much. [Squeezes hand gently.]

Yeah, I guess. I just hate feeling left out, I suppose.

[Moves in closer.]

Not a lot of people enjoy that. [Shrugs, squeezing hand again.]

Then why does it happen?

Some people are bullies, some are too shy, societal boundaries, age groups, there's all sorts of reasons. Don't worry, I'm sure you'll have tons of parties for yourself when you're older. [Smiles down at him.]

Of course I will. I'll have heaps and everyone will always be invited.

[Smiles back up at him.]

[Chuckles.] That's nice of you. [Gets to the dorm entrance, solves riddle, walks in with Tony and takes him to their floor.] Right, coat, scarf, gloves.

[Digs through normal Tony's things.]

[Tony watches him with a quiet respect as he does the riddle then starts rifling through 'another boys' things.]

Why do you keep going through some boys things?

Because you remind me of him and I know he won't mind. [Gets a coat, gloves and scarf, putting the first two on Tony before shrinking them then wrapping the scarf around his neck in a careful knot.]

But why won't he mind?

[He looks down at what he's been put in and frowns, obviously not liking it's in fact, he feels silly.]

Can't I just have my own coat?

Because I'll punch him if he does.

[Drags on one of his winter robes as well as his Ravenclaw scarf and kid-leather gloves.]

Your clothes aren't here, remember? The nearest shops are a good distance to walk and students aren't allowed to go there except on certain weekends.
