Marigold was hard at work, just as always. But, Charlotte had made her promise she'd eat at least once a day while she was studying. The problem was that she didn't have time to eat. With the help of a time turner, she was taking four extra classes and rarely had enough time to even finish her essays for her regular classes. Let alone the extra ones she was taking.

So while she was working on an essay for Ancient Runes, she was trying to munch on some fruit for dinner. She rarely even registered when people were around her, let alone when they were looking at her. She scribbled more notes, popping a raspberry into her mouth and chewing slowly.

	Howell looked Marigold over for a moment, then shrugged. "I can respect your rules," he told her. "But I also think that sometimes rules need to be changed. Or at least bent a little. One date doesn't really count as dating anyway." Marigold was a bit odd, but Howell was intrigued by it. She definitely wasn't afraid of being herself, which was a nice change.

	Marigold nodded slowly. She didn't agree with him, but she'd let him have his way for now. There was no sense in arguing. She chewed at her bottom lip for a moment, then sighed and put down her quill. "Tell me about yourself." Marigold looked back at him, then popped some fruit into her mouth. "What do you like? What are your goals and aspirations?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"My goals and aspirations?" Howell smiled, quirking an eyebrow at Marigold. "Let's see. I play Quidditch for Ravenclaw, but I have no interest in going professional. My best subject is Charms." He tapped a finger on the table for a moment, thinking. "I've always liked the idea of working in the Department of Magical Accidents and Catastrophes." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

That was interesting enough. At least he'd thought about it, even if he wasn't completely sure. Or didnt seem to be sure, as it was. She tapped her fingers on the table for a moment and then smiled.

"I plan to work in the ministry once I've finished schooling. My father works for the ministry and my mother is an auror." She shrugged. "My plan is to start out in the Misuse of Magic office and work my way up into the Wizengamot before I run for Minister of Magic." She smiled at him. "If charms is your class, I'd think you'd be interested in the Committee of Experimental Charms."

	"Not really," Howell said, shrugging. "Just because charms is my best class doesn't mean I have to work with charms. I'd rather work in Accidents and Catastrophes. More exciting." He shrugged. "You sound like you've got everything figured out, though." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I just thought that if you liked charms, is all." Marigold shrugged it off. As long as he wanted to work in the ministry, she could potentially see herself dating someone like him. As long as he understood her rules and respected her. Marigold shrugged. "My mother likes to come home with gruesome details about crime scenes." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Howell laughed. "Sounds like fun," he said. "Neither of my parents really have exciting work stories. My father works in administration at St. Mungo's. My mother's a Muggle teacher. I went to Muggle school before I started Hogwarts. You're a pure-blood, right? Were you home schooled?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I a full blood." Marigold replied with a casual shrug. It wasn't something she strictly liked to talk about, but it wasn't as if she was completely ashamed of it. She ran a hand through her hair. "I assumed most people knew about Macnairs and our heritage." Marigold told him. "We're descendant from trolls." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Really?" Howell hadn't know that, and if someone had told him that he probably would have dismissed it as a stupid rumour. "I hadn't heard that before," he said. "I think if someone had mentioned it to me I would have put it off as just a rumour. I didn't even know human/troll cross-breeding was possible." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	marigold 2012-08-30 09:14 pm UTC (link)
	"It's not terribly different from giants and humans breeding. And that's apparent in many different places." Marigold pointed out as she looked back at him. She tilted her head and looked at him. "Do you think I look like a troll?" (Reply to this)(Parent)
