[ A smile tugged at her lips and she reached up to absently push back a few strands of El's hair. ]

It's the right thing to do, I just wish it wasn't over something as stupid as blood purity.

Sort of like royalty, in a way - or at least the important families would like you to think. Purists believe that the children of non-magical people, or of a magical person and a regular person are inferior and shouldn't be entitled to the same quality of life they have.

[ The thought was as stupid now as it had been the first time she heard it, and she looked as though the idea were revolting. ]

Both my parents are non-magical, I've got a bit of an opinion on the matter, you might say.

There already is. One particularly horrible wizard has been gathering followers for years, adults, students at the school I went to. My friend.

[ Best not to dwell on that particularly nasty wound though. ]

They've been attacking people like me and their families for the last few years now. People go missing and turn up dead. It's said they mean to overthrow the Ministry and put a new order in its place, where magical kind is superior to all else.

I don't either.

[ The troubled look on her face grew a bit darker, watching the way his trying to work it out in his mind seemed to play across his expression in vivid detail. ]

He's an evil man, and nothing he says is true or right, but powerful terrible people believe him anyway.

[ Moving along with him as he pulled her closer she draped an arm around his shoulders, humming in appreciation. ]

You've got so much I don't think you could stop yourself from sharing if you tried.

[ That he was so obviously a kind and gentle sort of soul had made itself apparent within their first conversations. It was difficult to spend time with El and not feel better for it in some way. ]

I never thought of it that way. Wait, come here.

[ Nudging his shoulder lightly Lily urged Eleven to lay back so she could settle against him, half draped with one arm over his chest and the other propped on the ground so she could rest her chin on her hand. ]

It's a bit romantic, isn't it? Getting to enjoy each other's glow even though it's not something we're meant to experience. It makes me feel rather lucky.

I'm glad to hear it. I didn't expect to feel at ease here no matter what happened.

[ Leaning down she kissed his temple lightly. ]

Rather lucky you dropped your glove.

Distracted?

[ Tilting her head towards the hand that played with her hair Lily narrowed her eyes at El. ]

Speak for yourself. I was paying total attention.

[ Watching the color rise on his cheeks she laughed slightly, flashing a grin at him. She had been doing marvelously well with not flustering herself by accident, but that hardly stopped her from egging him on and making things worse. ]

Probably good that you think so. It wouldn't do to have you get complacent.

Shame you can't keep me on your balcony.

[ Lily dipped her chin looking at him impishly. ]

Be a bit drafty and I'm certain one of that lot up on the roof every night would notice.

[personal profile] lancifolium 2021-09-12 05:03 am (UTC)(link)
Oh?

[ She felt her face grew warm, the implications abundantly clear. ]

Maybe someday you'll show me where in your room you'd keep your rare flowers.

[ Lily nodded immediately, her face reddening as she considered how immediately out of her depth she would be if Eleven had decided to take her up on it right away. She could handle being cheeky and making him blush, even if she made herself blush in the process, but actually following through was a little more than she was prepared for. ]

Someday, when I'm less comfortable right where I am.

[ Still pink in the face she ventured a peek over at him. ]

You know you're very good to lay on.

[ Nope. Wrong direction to go in. ]
