“Aw, you’re so nobby an’ proper, cousin! Ain’t he sweet?” Sprightly asked with an affected Cockney accent thought she really didn't answer his question. “You should go after him Aslin, you need a fellow. Like I always say ‘warm bed, warm heart’” the girl grinned mischievously “Where is the other boy? Did he follow? I want to frighten him, maybe give him a kiss or start dancing too close. He’s so young he probably still thinks girls have cooties” a giggle escaped her throat.
Anyone close to Sprightly knew that laugh because it usually heralded disaster, it wasn’t an unpleasant laugh but hearing it was usually akin to hearing a fiddle playing while Rome burned. Besides, she was thirteen years old, trying to forget numerous tragedies, and so far around the bend she had turned a complete circle, she was practically walking id. There was no balance to her at all, she did whatever popped into her head with almost no thought towards the consequences. Almost. She cast a strange unreadable look at Aslin before declaring “I’m off to find… um, that boy, Arthur’s foster brother” she shrugged. Had the other first year told her his name? She couldn’t recall, but she shrugged it off and went to find him and horrify him.

Shifting in his seat, Stradivarius raised an eyebrow towards Aislin. "Er... Is she always like that?" He glanced pointedly after Sprightly, an incredulous and very taken aback look on his face. Sure, he was used to dealing with people considered insane-- look at how often he had to consort with Klarisa-- but Sprightly was really her own brand of out there. It actually reminded him of almost a second Fork, which was a rather daunting prospect. Noticing her empty bottle, he inquired as to whether Aislin would like another drink.

Aislin buried her face in her hands briefly and was very relieved when the boy spoke first. "[red]Yes, that's just Sprightly...[/red]" she said daftly. She nodded when he asked her if she wanted another drink and smiled with thanks. "[red]She says things without thinking sometimes, I'm sorry...[/red]" she apologized shaking her head in a bit of despair. How humiliating. She fiddled with her empty bottle until it was briskly taken away by some short but curvy witch and replaced by another drink. "[red]Thank you...for earlier I mean...and the drink...it was very kind of you,[/red]" she said quietly.

"Oh, er..." Stradivarius almost blushed, but then recovered his infamous composure, nodding kindly. "You're absolutely welcome, you looked as if you needed it. Now, um... Shall we catch a last carriage back to the castle? Or if you'd prefer to walk, I'll accompany you if you'd like." It was a pathetic attempt at being gentlemanly, his voice struggling not to shake and all, but he was trying to hard to keep his composure. Stradivarius stood and offered Aislin his hand to help her down from the tall chair, for she looked a little unsteady.

Aislin smiled at him, and took his hand shyly, blushing a faint pink, and slid out of her seat. Why the hell am I blushing so...I don't...I can't....like him... Aislin thought. "[red]Either is fine with me...and I would very much enjoy your company,[/red]" she said meeting his eyes. She held his gaze for a long moment before looking away.

((.....................SQUEE!!!))
Stradivarius finally broke, blushing wildly as she took his hand. "Oh, er--Thank you! I... I enjoy yours, too... " There was a period of very awkward silence during which Stradivarius asked himself what in the name of the gods of cockatrices was he doing?! Dropping their linked hands at their sides between them, he turned a shade darker as he shyly held her hand. "Umm... Why don't we walk!" He said rather too brightly. "It looks like the rain has quit already..." This was the first time he had ever lost his composure over anything--besides a severe beating, at least--for as long as he could remember. Stradivarius had always been a silent, stoic child, taking what was given to him and saying nothing, and now look at him! Being away from his suffocating family must have changed him, and very quickly, he concluded.

((EVEN MORE THAN SQUEE!!!))
Aislin was all too aware of his hand still holding hers, but it was no longer to help her down from her seat. She saw how red the boys face was turning and she looked away, blushing deeper herself. “[red]I would like that,[/red]” Aislin said softly, glancing at him again. He was really quite handsome, and didn’t look much younger than herself, even though he was a first year. Perhaps he has a late birthday… she thought curiously. Her heart was beating about three times it’s regular rate, and Aislin bit her lip subtly. “[red]So, how do you like Hogwarts?[/red]” she asked conversationally as she shifted her hand cautiously so that her fingers were laced with his.

((Hmm... Not quite sure what to add now. *think harder, Stoflet!! ))
Stradivarius was unusually glad for the distraction, glad to have something else to direct his attention towards as the two of them ambled slowly through Hogsmeade. "Well, it seems all right so far. I mean, I could certainly think of worse places to be, so it's a quite acceptable place to live. Some of the people are maybe less than satisfactory living partners, but I'm sure I can adjust to that... Oh, you're a second-year, right? Do you like it here? And if you don't mind me asking, how are the teachers?" A tiny, shy little flame of joy sparked inside of him as Aislin twined their fingers together, and he noticed she was blushing just as much as he. This was slightly reassuring. Out of the corner of his eye, he studied her face. I must be going insane. He muttered to himself. She is really incredibly beautiful. And she probably wasn't that much older than he was, either, given his birthday in early February( being placed a year behind everyone he knew had really irked him.). Maybe there was hope. Again, Stradivarius asked himself what in God's name he was thinking.

[awww...]
Aislin glanced at him and smiled. "[red]Oh, I don't mind at all. Admittedly, my first year at Hogwarts was the worst year of my life. A lot of things happened with my parents and my sister was killed on the grounds...this year has been better. I know where things are, and I have some friends, so it's better. As for the teachers, they are pretty cool. My favourite is Blair. She's nice,[/red]" she said. She looked at Stradivarius and watched him for a moment. "[red]If you don't mind me saying so, you don't look or act much like a first year,[/red]" Her eyes fixed on his and she stared into them, wondering what was making her so easy-going with this boy.

"Ouch..." Stradivarius could definitely sympathize with family troubles, even if they weren't quite the same.
"Isn't Blair planning on retiring, though? I did rather like her." He smiled faintly. "Um..." Stradivarius paused momentarily, his mind exploding. "Would you... ... ...Would you like to go out sometime?" He asked, barely above a choked whisper. Certainly his damnable parents had prearranged his marriage to the daughter of another PureBlood family--some girl named Yvonne whom he had never met or even seen--but that wasn't going to stop him living his own life. They hadn't stopped him from coming here, had they?

Aislin had not been expecting that in the slightest. She turned to the boy and smiled sadly. "[red]I would like that very much, but....[/red]" she said softly. "[red]I don't want to put you in danger...I'm not...completely...human...[/red]" she said, unsure of how this boy would take it. True, he was very attractive, and Aislin surely liked him, but she didn't want to fool him, or put him in danger.

Stradivarius held her gaze evenly, though he was still surprised at himself. "Well, I must thank you for not hiding that. However, less than, more than, or incompletely human, I'm not really bothered by that fact anymore. I've been, ah..." he cast about for a word, "desensitized toward that sort of thing in the past several years... But that's another story." He cut himself off subtly. Swallowing once, he wondered if that had been why she had had to return to the shack after they had gotten her out. "I did suspect... something ...given your quick recovery..."
But would she have him, though? He was having a hard time expressing what he was thinking, reminding himself a bit of Klarisa, actually, in that respect. Stradivarius honestly wouldn't have minded if she were a vampire, or even a werewolf. He could deal.
"Would you mind me inquiring...? ... I can understand if you do..."
((Sorry, love, I had to throw that bit in there because it amused me.))

[[hehe, it's fine]]
Aislin gazed at him with a thoughtful look on her face. She smiled warmly. "[red]I'm a werewolf...[/red]" she said cheerfully. She wasn't ashamed of it as she had once been. Then she leaned forward and kissed his cheek. "[red]I suppose if you don't mind, then yes, I would love to go out with you,[/red]" she said. She couldn't help but adding, "[red]But lets avoid full moons, shall we?[/red]"

Stradivarius blushed crimson, grinning helplessly. He took her hands in his, squeezing gently. "Deal."
