sortinghat_logs | I believe in a thing called love

WHO: Murdoc, Bro and Rhys
TONE: Horrifying (Hilarious)
RATING: PG-13 to R?? It's these three.
WHEN: Feb 10th onward
WHERE: The halls
WHAT: Bro and Murdoc are great egg daddies, Rhys gets a whiff of the love potion and has eyes for Murdoc.
STATUS: Ongoing

[Murdoc had no intention of participating in the activities. It seemed like a silly waste of time and honestly, this sort of thing rarely ends well in Hogwarts. He really doesn't want to turn into a lady or a pirate again. He'll never live it down if it happens again. It's embarrassing enough that students still mutter 'yarr' under their breath when they think he isn't listening.

However, when Bro greeted him with the egg baby in his arms he could hardly say no, could he? He still owes Bro a bit of focused attention after hurting his feelings so badly and quietly, he feels like this could be a nice way to grow even closer to his boyfriend. If they can trust each other with an egg baby, surely their relationship will develop even further in a pleasing way. They've already named it, too. Their egg is called Celia and everything is going swimmingly.

They're walking together down the halls, Murdoc listening as Bro recounts his day for him. He's carrying the egg for now, and he's being as attentive as possble as he does. Until he sees Rhys, and he feels the great urge to toss Celia at him. However, he needs to swallow his hatred and pause for a moment as he feels the egg rustling in his hands.]

Ah! It's movin'! [He exclaims, looking both excited and terrified.] I think it's about to hatch!! [It's actually kind of strange how hyped up he's getting.]

Threaded | Flat

[Rhys hasn't been involved in the raising of eggs at all, though he has been somewhat amused by the antics of the various students in regards to them. He was surprised to learn that some of the teachers were participating, but it hadn't held any particular appeal to him - the only person he could see wanting to pair up with him was Dolores, and he wasn't sure he wanted to spend his time with her watching over a little egg.

Seeing Bro and Murdoc walking down the hall and then Murdoc having his little excitable moment was pretty funny, though, and a decent distraction from his current crop of worries.]

Are you about to be a father? Again? [smirking]

[It's stupid of him to be this excited over an egg, but he honestly can't help it. It's one of those stupid little things that he's latched onto and gotten enthusiastic over and pulled Murdoc into- though Murdoc definitely doesn't seem to mind. Maybe it's a testament to how dumb they both really are, getting excited over being parents to an egg. Sometimes it's as if Bro forgets it's even actually an egg, and ends up treating it more like a baby.

Like right now, where it's cradled in his arms and he's rocking it back and forth.]

I wish it'd fuckin' hatch already.

[When Rhys shows up at Murdoc's office at four, he's figured out something's wrong. Unfortunately, he can't figure out how he came under the influence of a love spell and none of the usual antidotes seem to be doing a damn thing. He probably should go talk to Gkika or Dolores, but it's too embarrassing - he can just wait it out, it'll probably wear off in a day or two. He should also probably not show to this meeting, but ... well. A little time alone with the other man is too tempting to give up, even if nothing's going to happen. It can't hurt to talk to the other professor, can it?]

Donoghue?
