Teddy,
Oh yes, your 'friend', that's right.
And no, you're making sense, but please specify next time. From the way you phrased it, I thought you'd invited Molly Junior to live with us, and I was about to tell you I never agreed to that...
Well, okay, thanks. But I'll be fine. You never know, I might even drop into the Manor. Spend some nice traditional family time, that sort of thing. Or I can always crash Aunt Daphne's family dinner. It's no big deal.
School's okay. It's school. I'm just waiting for it to be over, to be honest. How's work going? Are you back now?

Scorpius,
I don't even know why that was in quotes. Something bothering you?
Why on earth would I invite her to live with us? I'll admit, she'd make the place a little less depressing but something tells me her parents would not at all approve. That, and she can go a bit crazy sometimes so it takes a real acquired taste to live with her.
Good for you! I'm glad you've got some semblance of sensible plans. I'm not joking though, I might really run off on vacation, if that's alright with you.
Oh, well, I was hoping something interesting might be happening at Hogwarts. Work's boring. Ollivander is treating me like I'm china. He thinks I've lost it. I don't think I've ever seen that man so perceptive of his surroundings. Merlin forbid he finds out what happened, he'll treat you even worse.

Teddy,
Well, I could explain, if you really want to talk about it? But no, nothing's bothering me - I have no issue with whatever you guys are.
That's what I was going to ask you. But then again, why would you need to tell Mrs Weasley that I was coming home for Christmas?
Of course it's all right with me - you don't need to ask me before you go on holiday, you know! Where are you planning on going? And who with?
Nope, nothing interesting's happening. I mean, I'm sure there's the usual drama, but I'm avoiding it, so it's all good. Seb's not speaking to me, but that's nothing unusual. What's going on with you though? He still thinks you've lost it just because you were tidying up when you shouldn't have been? That was ages ago. And he won't find out if you don't tell him.

Teddy,
No thanks. Not this again! I thought people were done badgering me about it
Well, because I don't spend Christmas at home, so if you were spending it with me, it would mean you were spending it with the rest of us at the Burrow, so I'd have to let her know she was going to have another guest...?
Yeah, but like I said, I'd feel bad about leaving you home during the holidays. I have no clue. I went to America last time and it was pretty expensive, so I don't want to go any time soon again. I might go up to Scotland, or somewhere in Europe, not too far. And I still have to figure out if Molly was being serious about coming with me.
Why, does Sebastian avoid you on a regular basis? That's weird. Yeah, he thinks I've finally let my life get to my head, which is funny since he has no idea what's happening in the store, let alone my life. And I have no reason to tell him, I was just pointing out how over the top he's acting. It passed the line of caring ages ago. Now it's creepy.

Teddy,
My name is Scorpius. Teddy is your name. I think Ollivander's right about you, you know.
I'm not spending Christmas at the Burrow. I'm fine. Look, I didn't move in with you wanting you to suddenly take care of me or something. You have your own life - you don't need to feel bad for that. I have mine too.
Only when he's in a huff with me. And you wouldn't say that if you knew Seb better - he's a drama queen. I spoke to the girl he fancies, which apparently has 'ruined everything' - he's completely overreacting.
You've let your life get to your head? What does that even mean? Though come to think of it, I have no idea what's going on in your life either, and I live with you. Are you having some sort of midlife crisis? I mean, you did forget your own name...

Scorpius,
I think I was much too sleepy, that's the only excuse. Really.
Okay, relax, I was just asking.
A drama queen? Really? Are you sure you're no exaggerating or anything? Oh, do I know this girl...? I didn't really think he was the kind to fancy a girl. Didn't he get an STI once?
I have no clue, I'm not the one who said it. It's okay, even I don't know what's going on my life and I am me. No, you don't know what's happening in my life because there is nothing happening in my life. I don't know how that's supposed to mean I let it get to my head, really. And I didn't forget it, I was just sleepy. I'm too young for a midlife crisis.

Teddy,
You were sleepy so you forgot my name and thought it was yours? How sleep-deprived are you?
I know, and I appreciate it. But you need to stop worrying about me, or you'll turn into even more of an old woman...
Am I exaggerating? Please try asking anyone who knows him. I doubt if you know her. And when I say 'fancy' I'm not sure what it is really - he's just been obsessing over her a bit more than usual. Who have you been talking to, Damien? Because there was a story about an STI, yes. Unfortunately, I don't think it was true. You could always ask him though.
There's nothing happening in your life? Sorry if I don't quite believe that. And keep telling yourself that, old woman.

Scorpius,
Not anymore I'm not. And I didn't forget my name, I just was muddled about the fact that I was writing a greeting, not a signature.
I resent that.
Oh, well, I suppose somebody around here has to be the drama queen to fill in the role. That sounds like fancying if you ask me. Or at least crushing. Eh, no, Lily told me actually. She wrote me last year asking me what on earth an STI was..you can imagine I was a bit stunned and asked why on earth she was asking and she explained about the rumor. What am I supposed to ask him? "Hello Sebastian, we don't talk much but I know your cousin and I was wondering, did you really have an STI? Teddy, xoxox"
I usually say there's nothing going on so people don't ask. But there really isn't. And I'm not an old woman.

Teddy,
That's still pretty worrying to be honest...
Yeah, that's what I thought. He keeps denying it, but I don't know. I'm just leaving him to sort himself out - and annoying him by talking to her occasionally.
Lily didn't know what an STI was? Merlin - she's the same age as Ella! I think that sounds like a perfect letter to send him, he'd love it. He'd probably think you were propositioning him actually.
Well, I think everyone does that. And I know it's not true anyway, even if you don't want to talk about it. If you're not an old woman, stop acting like one.

Scorpius,
Not really. It's common human error, come on. Give a guy a break.
Good for you. Does he get jealous when you talk to this girl? That would pretty much be a give away, I mean.
Have you met Lily? And have you met Ella?! They're leagues apart. I'm surprised that Lily survives Hogwarts, knowing the entire lot of you. Yeah, because that's my dream come true - sending mixed signals to Sebastian Nott. I don't even know him that well, he'd probably wonder how on earth I heard about it in the first place, really. Who started that rumor anyways?
Listen, you live with me. Have you seen me having a fight with a friend, or having girl troubles? And you've seen me at work too, so you know everything is fine there when Ollivander isn't being an idiot. What else could I possibly have that could be going wrong? Who said I was acting like one in the first place?

Teddy,
It's not really that common to forget whether you're saying hello or goodbye.
No, I don't think he's jealous. Just worried about what I might be saying, which is fair enough really.
What are you saying about Ella exactly? Though to be honest, no, I don't think I've ever spoken to Lily. Might not be your dream come true, but it would be funny for me. I don't think he'd wonder who'd told you - I think he'd assume I had. And I don't know for sure who started it, but I suspect Damien...
Er... yes? Not to the fight with a friend... And everything's obviously not alright at work if you're being made to take time off. I said you were acting like one in the first place, and you're also acting like an idiot, but if that's the way you like it, I'll just back off. Just like you did when I was screwing things up - or not.

Scorpius,
Well if he doesn't particularly fancy her, why would he be worried about what you're saying to her about him? If they're friends, she would know better than to believe you and if they aren't, why does he care?
I'm saying that Ella is more extroverted than Lily who, on the other hand, is much more quiet and shy. She's kind of on a different frequency than everybody else, really. The one time I spoke to Lily about you was when you and Roxanne had split up, and she said she hoped you guys would get back if it meant seeing Roxie happy. So there's a plus, eh?
Why would Damien start a rumor like that? Are they not on good terms or was it, like, a prank? I think it would've been somebody else.
Okay, I'll bite. Why am I acting like an idiot? Or rather, how am I acting like an idiot? I can't even tell what you're implying, that I backed off too soon or if I pushed too hard! Our situations were completely different, how can you even compare?! And obviously there's nothing going on my life, if you've managed to get me interested in drama happening at Hogwarts!

Teddy,
Why are we talking about Seb's (non-existent) love life again? He does fancy her, obviously, but you have to know Seb to understand... Let's have a go at explaining though, and then maybe we can talk about something more interesting. He may fancy her as in wanting to go out with her, or he may fancy her as in wanting into her pants. It's hard to tell with him. He does get unusually touchy whenever I mention her though, which may mean that he actually likes her, or it may mean that his pride is hurt because she's not letting him into her pants, or it may be because I'm making fun of him about it, or it may be all three. Like I say, hard to tell. I don't really care - it winds him up, which is the main thing.
Ella's not that extroverted. Is she? That's nice of Lily - am I meant to be touched? And before you have a go at me, I have nothing whatsoever against her, she seems nice enough.
Because Damien's a little bitch? I don't know - I'm pretty sure it was him though. Probably his idea of a joke. His sense of humour isn't usually that good, but I'll give him credit for that one.
I thought you didn't want to talk about it... but okay. Why - I don't know, you tell me. How - well, how about we start we start with you sleeping with your ex-girlfriend's cousin when you're not really over your ex-girlfriend, and go from there? I know our situations were different, you twat, that's not the point.

Scorpius,
I told you, I have nothing better to talk about, because there's nothing going on my life. Sebastian is more complicated than girls. You can quote me if you want.
Yeah, I guess. But Lily's always nice to everybody, even a rock, so I'm not really sure.
I think I gave up trying to understand the dynamic you cousins have, yesterday. How do you even manage to remember if you're supposed to be nice or not?
Well, you're calling me an idiot, obviously I'm going to ask. Okay, really, I'm so tired of people asking me that. I slept with Molly, yes I did. And I'm not going to say I didn't mean to okay because in that moment I really really did. You know why? Maybe because for that one split second I felt like somebody cared about me, maybe a girl I really like maybe was interested in me too. Trust me, if I'd just wanted to get into her pants, I'd have found a common whore to go and satisfy myself with because I'd rather do that than cause problems in the Weasley household just because I feel horny on my birthday.
But it was a mistake. Not because I slept with her, but I slept with her while having unresolved feelings. And you know what, yes, I made a mistake but I'm only human. I'm not going to apologize for it. The two people who need my apology, have it and that's all that matters to me. I'm not the kind of person to toy with two girls. Which I'm not. Vic and I, we aren't even friends. And just because I loved her once, does that mean I can't like another girl? And you don't choose who you like. I didn't run around saying 'oh please help me get over a girl, but please let it be somebody related to Vic that'll be a fun night'. It happened, and it's in the past. Let's move on world.
So, what is the point?

Teddy,
That's because he is basically a girl.
She's nice to rocks? Have you talked to her about that?
I get round it by never being nice to any of them except Ella.
Did I ask you to apologise for anything? Why would I want you to apologise to me? Honestly - I don't really care who you sleep with. As far as I'm concerned, they all completely overreacted. But see, now you're just beating yourself up about it - I know you are, or why would you spend two paragraphs justifying something to me when it's nothing to do with me? I'm not disagreeing with anything you said there, except the very last bit. The world's already moved on - it's you who hasn't. You're acting like more of a mess than me right now, and I'm the one who drank himself into hospital a few weeks ago - just think about that. Do you still like Molly?
That is the point, you prat.
