Thoreau waited for Pansy in the common room, twirling the rose he'd picked her between his fingers. Rider kept looking at him funny from the other side of the common room and he was hoping Rider didn't feel guilty and tell Pyxis and fuck up his friendship with her or something equally stupid. He looked like he was tempted to. He had a glint in his eye that said desperate to Thoreau.

Rider felt on edge. He kept dreaming about cock, which was fucked up. More than fucked up. He looked down at Pyxis and gave her a small smile, doing his best not to look at either of the Lestranges. Even if Rex was in his chair again. "Should we go?" he asked her. "We want a good table at the pub."

Draco didn't approve of Pansy going on a date wit Thoreau Lestrange, who he hadn't really heard of before the memories Charlie had shown him. He stood with Merlin, watching Pansy primping in his mirror. "What do you even know about Lestrange?" he asked, trying not to sound as petulant as he felt. "You really want to spend the whole day with him?"

June ignored the rest of Slytherin, walking through the common room and out the door, on her way to meet Regulus for their date. Her dad wasn't going to be very happy if he found out about it, but that made it even better. June was tired of her life being controlled. Plus, Regulus could turn into a puppy and play fetch with her. What wasn't to like?

"I'm not a girl," Thoreau pointed out, shrugging. "My first time... wasn't." He took a sip of his tea as he looked Pansy over. "You're beautiful, Pansy. I think most boys are... somewhat intimidated by how close you are to the Malfoys and by your ability to argue with Merlin Riddle and come out the other side in one piece."

"Good," Rider said, wrapping an arm around Pyxis and picking up one of the beers and she sat next to him. He kept his eyes on Draganov, still suspicious. "Take a seat." He nodded to the chair in front of them. "You're on the Quidditch team now?"

Luka took a seat and shrugged. "Vas easy to get on," he said. "Team here is much worse than my team at Durmstrang. I vould keep them in much better shape if I vas in charge of them. They are not very good, but ve vill vin next game."

"I don't know. I don't even really know them," Draco said, picking up a couple boxes of chocolates in the shop, one for himself and one for Pansy. He wondered what Merlin and Charlie usually ate. "The memory thing. And I've only really seen proof about my feelings from one of them so far."

"Your dad and his boyfriend and your mum?" June said, laughing a little. "You'd have terrible in-laws. If you're not after some political something I'm not sure why you'd do that to yourself."

"Merlin Riddle is the least of my worries." Pansy replied as she looked back at Thoreau, then let out a soft sigh. "What boys are available to me? Because I'm not aware of any."

"You're very confident in that." Pyxis told him with a grin, looking him over. "I know that you're having a good time on it and that you're a good player. But, don't get so cocky."

"That must suck." Rex looked at the blonde and at the chocolates. "Sometimes, with the things I know and have seen personally, I think it would be better to lose my memories."

Regulus laughed at that. "I'm not interested in politics, but I'm sure I'll have to get some sort of nice job. You know? If I married you it'd have to be something important."

"There are houses outside Slytherin," Thoreau pointed out. "I know they're not talked about often, but there's Ravenclaw. Even Gryffindor, if they're from a good enough family. Theodore Nott has always had an eye on you. My cousin Regulus is... Well, he's unconventional but he's an option."

"This is not cocky," Luka said, shaking his head dismissively. "This is knowing my skill. Durmstrang ve play far harder than you plan here. Vhen you talk to Radley and Rooney then you see. It vill be real game vhen Slytherin plays Gryffindor."

Draco glanced at Rex, but he'd met Rabastan Lestrange, before, in the old world, and he knew what his aunt and uncle were like. "The memories I've lost are all the ones that were more inconvenient to lose. I've got... let's see... getting dragon pox when I was little. Getting kidnapped. First kisses. Sorting. I have no idea if I have an essay or project due in any of my classes."

June snorted. "It would," she agreed. "Special adviser to the vice-Minister with a Wizengamot position attached or something. I don't know. I hate it all so much. Sometimes I just want to scream or join my mum drinking everything the Rosier vineyard produces."

"I know that there are houses outside of Slytherin. They're just not available for me if I want to stay in my family's loving arms." Pansy replied simply as she looked back at Thoreau. "Ravenclaw is fine. But, if I were to date a Gryffindor or a Hufflepuff, I'd be completely disowned." She sighed. "I know Regulus. That is a huge no. Besides, there's a rumour about him and June Riddle."

"I think that it's cocky to say you're going to win because you went to a school where rape and torture are just part of the curriculum." Pyxis informed him with a frown. "You can't go around thinking you're better than someone else because you're from a school like that. You are not as amazing as you think you are. Trust me. I've spent time with you. And I'm not going to sit around and let you say bad things about the team that I play for."

"You should ask your professors." Rex pointed out with a snort, shaking his head. "Not that they'd fail you regardless. It's well known that Tom Riddle thinks more of you than he does his own son. He calls you the Chosen One. Everyone knows that. It's why everyone is afraid of you."

"I will get drunk with you. In the vineyards." Regulus told her with a laugh, wrapping an arm around her. "I have it on high authority that I'm a fabulous dancer, and ninja, when I have a few drinks in me."

"Really?" Thoreau raised an eyebrow at that. "I can't decide if that means Regulus has a death wish or not. Aunt Narcissa spends a lot of time with his father." Aunt Narcissa spent a lot of time with a lot of men, but Pansy probably didn't want to hear him say catty things about her. Even Bellatrix liked Narcissa. What were the chances Pansy didn't? "We'll stick to Slytherins and Ravenclaws. We can always date until you find someone better. You can break my heart later."

Luka frowned back at Pyxis. "You do not understand," he told her. "This is not vhy I say it. Because of rape. This is not vhat makes us good. Ve are good because ve play at professional level. I played for Bulgaria national team. You are at school level still."

The Chosen One? Draco gave Rex a slightly skeptical look. "People aren't afraid of me," he said, picking up a box of mixed chocolates to give to Merlin to try and avoid more sulking. "Calling me the Chosen One sounds ridiculous. Are you buying anything?"

"Ninja?" June repeated, grinning at Regulus when he wrapped an arm around her. "Now I just want to get you drunk to see how fabulous your ninja-skills are."

Pansy arched a brow and looked back at him. "You hadn't heard about that?" She asked and then shrugged. "I don't want to break your heart. I like you."

"Whatever." Pyxis waved a dismissive hand and rolled her eyes. "Let's talk about something other than Quidditch so I don't hate you later."

"People are afraid of you." Rex pointed out and shook his head. "If people weren't afraid of you, then why is that boy over there looking at you in terror?"

"You want to get me drunk? Alright." Regulus beamed at her, pulling her a little closer. "I won't disagree with that. At all. As long as you don't take advantage of me."

"No, I hadn't. I guess I've fallen behind on gossip. I've been spending my time with Rex." Thoreau looked Pansy over when she said she liked him, then smiled at her. "I like you too, Pansy. You're a sweet girl."

"Something interesting," Rider said, finishing off his first beer and looking between them. He liked that they were arguing though. That was a good sign for him. He pulled Pyxis a little bit closer. "You know I don't understand the appeal of Quidditch."

Draco looked at the boy Rex was pointing to. He did look terrified, but Draco shrugged as he brought his chocolates to the front counter to pay for them. "I assume it's because he's a Hufflepuff. Isn't that their natural state?"

June laughed. "I promise to be an absolute gentleman," she said, touching his hair and winding a bit of it around one of her fingers. "I'll keep my hands above the waist at all times."

Pansy smiled back. She liked that a boy had actually taken interest in her. She leaned forward and gave Thoreau a soft kiss on the lips, looking him over carefully. "Thank you."

"I know that you don't. We could talk about music, but Luka doesn't know much about that either." Pyxis pointed out and then glanced at Luka. "What sort of things are you into that aren't Quidditch?"

Rex laughed at that and shook his head. "I'm really starting to miss my old school. Beauxbatons is so much better than this school."

"Gentleman? Uh oh." Regulus laughed and then shrugged. "I suppose that makes me a homosexual for the evening. That explains why you're wearing pants."

Thoreau reached up and touched Pansy's cheek, kissing her again and then letting her pull away. "You're welcome," he said, smiling at her. "Have you decided what I'm going to buy you after we're done our cake?"

Luka blinked at Pyxis for a moment. Things that weren't Quidditch? He liked sex and tits and being around Pyxis, but Rider was right there and Pyxis had told him to behave himself. "I like Quidditch," he said, shrugging.

Rider snorted, looking at Pyxis and raising an eyebrow. "If he's made up his mind about what he likes, who are we to question it?" he asked.

"Why?" Draco asked, paying for his chocolate and then taking the bag they offered. He led Rex out of the shop. "Because it's warmer? At least the uniforms at Hogwarts aren't as... flouncy."

"I like pants," June said, looking down at her pants. "Trousers make everything much more convenient. For example, I think it would be difficult to be a ninja in a skirt. You've have to worry about flashing people and sitting like a lady."

"I think I'd love a present more if you decided what you wanted to get me." Pansy informed Thoreau as she looked back at him, taking his hand. "What do you want to buy me?"

"That's all you like?" Pyxis asked, feeling a bit confused about how someone could only care about one thing. She arched a brow at him for a moment, then shook her head. "Sure there must be something else you like."

"No. That's not why I miss it." Rex shook his head and looked back at Draco with a grin. "It was just... not under Tom Riddle's rule, is all. I was capable of being my own person."

"You are wrong there. Flashing people is the greatest distraction." Regulus informed her. "Imagine if you will, a man in a skirt who flashes you cock before he kicks you in the face."
