Sitting around

[harrypotterfan:)]

"You just look so adorable sitting there." He said smiling looking down at her.

[goblet_fulla_fire]

"Right," said Goblet as he took another swig of water. "Uhm, are there any events as of late that we can enter into conversation?"

[Alexis]

"Not anything I can think of.  What about you, heard anything?"  Alexis asked casually.

[goblet_fulla_fire]

"No... no I have not," said Goblet. "So Alexis, how is life treating you as of late?"

[Alexis]

"Actually pretty good.  Better since I left home.  It wasn't so great the last time I was there"  Alexis said as she looked at the ground, seemingly to be off in her own world.  Then she snapped back into it.  "How has it been for you?" she asked, paying her attention to him.

[goblet_fulla_fire]

"Oh I have my ups and my downs. I just decided to calm down a bit... and I did. So now I'm here, meeting people who I should have met a long time ago since they were always here, but I didn't bother to meet them. So yeah, life is treating me quite all right at the moment," said Goblet.

He took another drink and wondered what else to talk about. "So Alexis... what's your story?"

[Alexis]

Alexis nodded in understanding as Goblet finished, then she replied to his next question.  "Well, nothing special... I had 5 brothers and sisters and my parents spit up when I was 6.  When I found out I was a witch my mom thought I was crazy and took me to a doctor.  I don't really like to talk about that part."  she said, remembering.  Alexis continued "A few other things too, but I don't like talking about that stuff either. But otherwise thats pretty much it" she said.

"So not exactly a good childhood? Mine for the most part was normal and typical. Though my parents and my brother all split through events that were most... unfortunate. I do not know if my parents are still together, literally or marital-wise, but I hope it's both. I know my brother can handle himself, and he seems to pop in whenever he feels appropriate. I still don't know him as well as I used to. But I do have cousins who I keep in touch with, though we mostly have a business relationship, in which I deal in collecting bounties. Yet, I still manage to keep with my studies," said Goblet with a small laugh.

[Alexis]

"Well that doesn't sound to bad, nothing over tramatical or anything.  Well except the thing about not knowing if your parents are together or not." Alexis said to him.  "I guess no ones parents are perfect..."  she said with a sigh.  She began to play with the small black ring that was on her finger, obviously she was deep in thought.

[goblet_fulla_fire]

"Something troubling you?" asked Goblet, eying the black ring. "And is there a history behind that ring? Or are either of those things something you do not wish to discuss?"

[Alexis]

"Oh, no history or anything"  Alexis said as she put the ring back on her finger.  "Just thinking about home.  And what went on there. In a way I miss being home... its kinda odd...I don't even know why."  She said with a small laugh that quickly faded.

[goblet_fulla_fire]

"It's only natural to miss home. If it's a place you love to stay with people who you love, then why on earth wouldn't you miss it? I myself, do not have a home. Though I understand its value, I do not think I have truly comprehended it yet, therefore it is not something that I have learned to miss."

[Alexis]

"Yeah but its not a place where I love to stay."  Alexis said then she looked up at him.  "You don't have a home?" She felt foolish now for complaining about her home.  He didn't even know what it felt like to have a home.  "I'm sorry" Alexis said

[goblet_fulla_fire]

"Oh don't pity me! I have a place to stay. It's not like I live on the street. I know the concept of a 'home' is something that many people value, but it is something I do not miss. So I say that your situation with your home is much more greater and deserving of pity than mine," said Goblet.

[Alexis]

"Oh"  Alexis said, understanding..  "Sorry, I misunderstood"  she said.  She looked at Goblet and asked "What was your home like...if you don't mind me asking.." She rolled down her sleeves on her hoodie because it was kinda cold in the common room.
