He liked it. He really truly liked it.

What did he say?

[alt_theodore]

I don't remember, it was too exciting. I wish I could. I know He patted me on the head and said well done and Mrs Lestrange was so happy. She was so pretty...

[alt_pansy]

It must have been an experience to be touched by him. Imagine how wonderful it'll feel to get the Mark.

[alt_theodore]

That's what it was! I had Draco draw His Mark on my arm and our Lord Protector and Mrs Lestrange thought it was wizard. She said I showed great devotion to Him. I'd take His Mark for real if I could but I'm too young still. Someday, He said.

[alt_theodore]

Do you really mean all those things you're saying about being wrong?

[alt_pansy]

What has that got to do with what he said to you?

[alt_theodore]

It has everything to do with wether or not I'm going to keep talking to you Pansy. You said some really awful things. And you didn't even seem ashamed that you said them.

[alt_pansy]

Well, you're a big boy so I'll let you decide if you're talking to me or not. In the meantime, play leapfrog with a unicorn.

[alt_theodore]

You didn't mean them at all. Your whole apology was a lie.

[alt_pansy]

I suggest some new hobbies for you and that makes me a liar? For such a smart boy, you do have moments where you're not the brightest candle on the ceiling, don't you?

[alt_michael]

What did you do?

[alt_theodore]

I gave a gift to our Lord Protector and he liked it!

[alt_michael]

Well, yes, but what was it?

[alt_theodore]

I had Draco draw the Lord's Mark on my arm and I told Mrs Lestrange about it and then she took me up to show it to him.

I wish it could have been a real one.

[alt_michael]

That's brilliant. That one will definitely be remembered, I think.

[alt_theodore]

I hope so!

Hey do you want to play Wizard's chess tomorrow? You can play white so you'll have the advantage.

[alt_michael]

Definitely, yes. I'm not sure even playing white will help, but yes.

[alt_sally_anne]

It was lovely, Teddy (I could see it from across the common room last night when you were telling people). I'm so glad for you that the Lord Protector liked it.

[alt_theodore]

Thanks Sally-Anne!

[alt_draco]

I'm glad he liked it. I guess I must be a pretty good artist after all.

Are you and Michael still playing chess? Do you think maybe I could join?

[alt_theodore]

They said it was really well done. I told them you were the best artist in the whole school.

And yeah! We're in the Great Hall. I think Michael might actually beat me this time.

[alt_draco]

You did? Wow, thanks.

Okay. I can just watch and not play, actually. I just feel like being away from other people right now.

[alt_theodore]

I've got other games here, I bet there's something we can all play.

[alt_draco]

Brilliant.
