Oops, indeed.

And since he shall now be out for blood, I think I will do you a great service by locking him in his bedroom for a few hours. I of course will be in with him - minding him, if you please. You will be perfectly safe and sound. You really ought to thank me, for sparing your life this way, and sacrificing so much time to ensure your continued existence. I am a veritable hero, in that sense.

Also, I've had the front desk send up one of those Playstation things for you. I reckon you know how to wire it all up. There's a room service tray in the lounge if you get hungry.

I must go back to minding Sirius now. He's looking very murderous. Sigh. I am so long-suffering in my endless devotion to protecting you from certain wrath. Nevertheless I endure, no doubt suffering many wounds both physical and emotional. All for you, my dear boy. All for you.

Later, after his vengeful spirit is surely broken by my boundless bravery, we will all go to St Mark's Square for dinner and zabaglione, all right?

Hahahahahahahahahahahaa.

Yeah, the Dursleys gave me Playstations all the time. I could probably hook one up in my sleep now. I'm long-suffering too. All those Playstations and all. They were so giving.

lupercus @ 2004-04-15 11:39 am UTC

Oh, I never assumed they let you play one, my dear boy. I rather thought they made you do the grunt work getting them set up so that your incredibly vast cousin could pretend he had some semblance of mammalian motor-skills, while you went out to play with rocks and sticks.

You little ass, you dare mock your werefather?

And there's your dogfather, laughing at him.

I should just drown you both out in the canals. Really. Prats.

just_harry @ 2004-04-15 01:02 pm UTC

You think I got rocks and sticks? Now I kind of feel bad that I never got any. Are you going to give me some of those, too?

lupercus @ 2004-04-15 01:23 pm UTC

I'm going to give you something in a minute, if you don't shut your gob.

Also, you snore like the bloody Hogwarts Express. That cannot be normal. No human boy ought to be able to make such a racket. How do your dormitory mates cope? Do they hang you out of the window by your ankles? Because that sounds like a very good idea to me, right about now.

And not even just because you snore. Berk.

just_harry @ 2004-04-15 01:26 pm UTC

Okay, I've asked before and everyone else says I don't snore. I think that's the sound of yourself you're hearing. Or it's probably just that you're really boring and I'm pretending to sleep so I don't have to hear about another cathedral.

lupercus @ 2004-04-15 02:58 pm UTC

You are an absolute philistine that cannot appreciate the fine architecture of the neo-Gothic arches of the Pescaria. See if I take you to the Palazzo Ducale now, you little brat.

And you can just forget about San Gimignano. You'll just have to read about the towers now.

just_harry @ 2004-04-15 03:04 pm UTC

OH NO.

lupercus @ 2004-04-15 03:17 pm UTC

Oh, shut up.
