[Scorpius Malfoy]

Hey,

How's things at home? Hope you're having a good holiday. It's not too bad here I'm quite enjoying the peace and quiet to be honest! It'd be better if you were here too though. None of my family have bothered me about coming home anyway, which is a good thing. Damien disappeared off with some stuff of mine though, so I'll have a few things to say to him when he gets back.

What have you been up to? Anything exciting, or just spending time with your insane cousins?

Love, Scorpius

[Roxanne Weasley]

Hey!

I miss you! I'm okay, love. Things are oddly quiet here. Mum and dad have been spending time together, a lot of time. Which is good because for a moment I thought they were going to divorce. I'm coming back early, though! We can spend some much needed r&r. Have you done any flat hunting?

What did Damien take?

Just a lot of lazying about. I went to the cafe, but Lee was sulking so I had breakfast with Aunt Lib and Fefe. That's about the most exciting thing...

How's your kitten?

Love, Rox

[Scorpius Malfoy]

I miss you too. That's good, that your mum and dad are okay. How early is early? I want to see you...

Yeah, I found a couple of places that might do. One's a bit expensive, but I got permission to go out and see the other one next week - want to come? It's in Sheffield, not London - everything in London's twice the price it would be anywhere else.

Oh, nothing that important. Stuff I shouldn't have had anyway, and you'll yell at me if I tell you. It was still mine though. Little prick.

What cafe? Oh, the Jordans' place? Where was Ricky, still in bed?

She's fine. Growing. Her and Thyestes have got to a sort of truce, I think. Mutual distrust but mutual respect... She escaped yesterday and a bunch of Third Year girls found her and thought she was adorable. I had to tell them to fuck off to get rid of them.

Love, Scorpius

[Roxanne Weasley]

I can't come back too early! I just got home. Plus, I know I sound like a baby, but I missed my mum. I can live without Fred, though. He just threw a snapper at me and getting ahold of the little bugger once it get's going is going to drive me insane. I think I may shave his head tonight.
But, soon! I promise. I'll come back a few days later.

The expensive one's in Sheffield? or London? I'd love for you to find a place in London, I don't get to go a lot, but I know it's an arm and a leg. Have you ever considered renting a place from a muggle? I know our money is ten times theres . . . But then you'd have to be weary of magic.

I don't yell at you, do I? Because I don't mean too. Wait, what is it? More porn? Because if he took your porn, then that's a good thing, actually.

Yes! That's the cafe. Yeah, Ricky sleeps way in on holiday. There's been a few times I've had to forceably wake her. I may have to tomorrow. We're suppose to go see my gran for cake to help her. . .

Have you named her, yet? I was reading a book on ancient Egypt earlier and I really think you should name her Cleopatra or even Anubis. . . way, she's a girl - what about Anput? Thyestes is too temperamental and insane. . . really.

But third years are cute . . . don't be mean.

Love, Rox

[Scorpius Malfoy]

No, I know - I didn't mean right now! I just wondered.

If you shave your brother's head, please take pictures. I'm sure I can't be the only person who'd like to see them...

The expensive one's in London. Everything's expensive in London, love. I'll get twice as much for my money anywhere else... and it's not like I'll have a full time job when I'm at school either. My savings won't last forever. I could get a Muggle place - I haven't looked at them. They'll be a bit basic though, won't they?

No, okay, you don't yell... much. No! It's not porn. It's just a bit of grass, and before you say anything, I hardly ever do it. I've had that stuff for ages. Actually, it's probably too old now - I hope it's lost all its strength, that would serve Damien right.

I'm glad you're the one forcibly waking Ricky Jordan, not me.

No, I've just been calling her 'You' most of the time... Anput... who was she? Thyestes attacked Kale's owl the other day too, it was quite funny.

Third Years are not cute. Three year olds are cute, sometimes. Thirteen-year-olds, no. And they were traumatising my cat with too much affection. She's not used to it.

Love, Scorpius

[Roxanne Weasley]

Well, don't worry. I'll be back soon! Promise.

What, the pictures? I don't think he'll actually let me take pictures, and my mum will be cross with me for a bit, but I think it's worth it. He deserves it. I may just settle for filling his bed with whiz bangs and watch as they singe his eyebrows off.

I know, I was just thinking that muggle London would be nice, but you're going to have to budget yourself very well to begin with. I can always help you, too. You do know that, right? And of course muggle London will be very basic - there muggles, love. Wait, do you know how to cook? or do laundry? you won't be able to afford an elf or maid.

Grass? What's grass . . . like the quidditch pitch grass? I for once don't understand . . . should I ask my mum or dad what it is? I've never heard of it . . . or I don't think I have. What else is it called?

Ricky likes to kick people, when she does that I just use my dad's joke products.

You can keep calling her 'You'. It's not nice. She's too cute to be a 'you'. Anput is the female counterpart to Anubis - the guardian of the underworld, or rather the guide. It's really fascinating, love. Anyways, she's his wife, more or less. She's quietly dangerous, calm, and deadly. I think that'd fit perfectly along side Thyestes, who ate his own children.

Your owl is deranged, I think he needs a mental institution.

Oh come on, do you remember when you were thirteen? They are cute. By the way - speaking of third years, I did tell you your brother was beat up by a second year Gryffindor the other day, right? A little girl, cute as a button, but foul mouthed as ever. I was heading to charms when your brother was trying to give her a detention for hallway roaming . . . and she refused to take the slip - I think her actual words were "shove it down your throat" anyways, she threw it on the ground, he picked it back up and shoved it at her, then she kicked him. I'm sorry I laughed at him.

And your kitty is a beauty. I just want to snuggle her. She's adorable. Almost even cuter than you.


Love, Rox

[Scorpius Malfoy]

Hey Rox

I love you you know. you know that right

I mean, you know I love you right

I think there should be a question mark there. should there be a question mark there? They look weird, queston marks don't they? like little people. kind of

? ? ? ? ?

You know I love you, right? I think I weas writing to tell you something I can't rember what. how many ms does rememember have I don't think that's right. I can't see properly.

I saw kale today. He's a really good guy, Kale. Really good guy. we smoked a lot of stuff. Its awesome. did you know there are stars on the ceiling? Oh look another qestuion mark.

I wish you were here I want to take your clothes off.

Love you

Scrop Scoprius Fuck

Scorpius

[Roxanne Weasley]

I love you too, but what in the bloody hell?

How much did you drink or smoke and of what?

I can't understand anything you've written except for 'I want to take your clothes off'
You seem to have written that without issue...



Rox

[Scorpius Malfoy]

((OOC - Okay, I'm well fast-forwarding, but he can't still be stoned after his owl carried a letter all the way to London and then back again... ))

Roxie,

Shit, I'm really sorry. I was with Kale and we just... had a bit too much. I mean, it was nothing really bad, but... you know I was talking about grass? It's another word for weed. You know, cannabis. It's no worse than getting drunk, honestly.

I remember writing to you, but I have no idea what I said except that it was a load of shit, and I'm really, really sorry. Was I a complete prick? Because I'm not saying I don't want to take your clothes off, but I probably wouldn't have said it in a letter...

I need to train Thyestes not to take letters from me except when I'm sober.

I love you. Are you pissed off with me?

Scorpius

[Roxanne Weasley]

ooc: I would hope not.
---

Can you at least owl me when you're sober? It's less of a headache trying to decipher what you've written.

I'm still not sure what you're talking about. I know what cannabis is, it's used for hemp rope, but why are you smoking? I'm glad you had a nice time with Kale, but I prefer it if you're sober when you pick up a quill to talk to me.

I don't know what you said, something about a question mark.
I don't think you should have said it in a letter whilst high following 'question marks are odd'. Writing me to let me know you want to 'take my clothes off' while pondering the complexities of question marks makes me feel so very special. Good thing to know that sex is the first thing on your mind when you're high.

Thyestes would deliver it out of spite, you know that.

I'm annoyed. And I love you too.



Rox

[Scorpius Malfoy]

Yeah, see that sounds like the obvious, sensible thing to do. Not so easy to remember when I'm stoned though...

Wait What Are you serious? Cannabis is... a drug, Rox. Yeah, it's used for hemp, but you can also smoke it, and it gets you high. I mean, it's not a really bad drug - it's not really any worse than drinking, and not as bad in a lot of ways. It just kind of relaxes you. I don't smoke normally, you know that, right?

I'm sorry, honestly. I have no idea what was happening in my head. You know I think you're special. D'you forgive me, or do I need to grovel some more?

Thyestes isn't spiteful to me, only to other people.

Love, Scorpius

[Roxanne Weasley]

Write it on your hand before you get stoned?

So its a drug? I'm not quite certain what to say about it. I've never tried it. I barely drink. How much would you have to drink in order to reach the level of high you had when you wrote me? It relaxes you? Seemed to make you a bit daft between the ears if you ask me.

I'm not making you grovel. And I know you do, it's just annoying and -- just forget it.

Exactly.



Love, Rox

[Scorpius Malfoy]

I'm not sure that would help...

Yeah, it's a drug, but it's not a really bad one. I mean, it's not the kind people die of overdosing on or anything - at least, I never heard of that happening. And it's not something I do every day or anything. I... don't know to be honest. It's not like being drunk, so it's hard to compare. Quite a lot though. Like you probably noticed, I was a bit off my face. You should try it some time and find out.

I'm sorry, I'm a prick. But okay, forgetting about it... I don't think I ever really answered your questions in the other letter.

I know I'm going to have to budget, but if I get somewhere out of London, I'll be able to afford a much nicer place than I would in London. I could get a pretty nice flat in Sheffield for the same price as a scruffy bedsit in London... and I'm not living in a scruffy bedsit. I've never cooked or done laundry, but it can't be that hard, especially with magic.

I've called the kitten Anput. I call her Putty for short, I think she likes it.

Love, Scorpius

PS - I was not cute when I was thirteen.

[Roxanne Weasley]

Staple it to your head?

But it's still a drug, though. . . I mean, I've barely drank . . . it's not harmful, is it? People probably have died from it, you just don't know them . . . I just, I don't know.

A bit off face? You asked me about question marks then so eloquently told me you wanted to undress me. . .

You're not - just, whatever. Forgetting too since it was my suggest.

Oh, love - for your sake, I'm buying you a cookbook. I've seen my mum do it both ways, and I've done it the manual way, it's a lot harder than you would think, love.

Your cat is queen of the underworld, now.

Love, Rox




PS: Yeah, I know you weren't. Obnoxious little git with a big ego and even bigger head.

[Scorpius Malfoy]

What does staple mean?

Yeah, it's a drug, but alcohol is a drug, nicotine is a drug, Muggle painkillers are drugs... hell, you could probably say half our potions were drugs! Weed's not like a hard drug - you don't get addicted by trying it once, or even trying it every now and again - it's more like alcohol, you have to smoke it regularly to get addicted. And then it probably would do you harm, but the only way it's going to kill you straight off is if you get so stoned you walk off a cliff, and you could do that drunk...

I'm not saying you have to try it, though. You can if you want...

I think I remember the question marks. They seemed really interesting for some reason. And wanting to undress you isn't necessarily a bad thing, is it...?

Well, I'll just buy food in, I'll be fine.

Excellent. Perfect name. I should tell Chloe.

Love, Scorpius

PS - Sounds about right...
