Since I highly doubt you turn evil and become the villain, it might not be such a bad thing. Perhaps it predicts you'll become something great-- not that you aren't already, but you know what I mean.
I think it might be better to know, if only to prepare yourself.
[A beat.]
Sirius told me of my future. It's a dark one, but it's one I'm better prepared for.
see i don't know if i'd want to know something like that time might stop at home while we're here but it's still i dunno :c i'd be giving you a hug right now if we were talking in person
[He gives a sad little laugh as he reads her texts.]
It's hard to know sometimes. But Sirius and I are going to change it-- which would be the good thing about knowing. But on the other hand, it is a burden. I don't know how I'm going to go home and face him.
[ she takes a while to respond to that, because she's not sure she wants to send what she types out. it feels wrong not to, but it feels kind of.. really.. messed up. to say it. so she deletes it, tries to skirt a bit ]
have i told you that i went home once before? woke up right there i left.
nah. there are some things that happened that i don't like thinking about, but i really.. didn't have any control. once i was there. this guy Alex, who's here, told me what would happen, and it did and i couldn't do anything to change it. i didn't remember anything about this place, it was like i was never here.
once i woke up in my pod again, that's when the memories all mushed together.
no, it- at least, for me it was really like i was never here at all all the things i learned about myself, the future, all of it but it didn't feel like i had been gone either, life just continued on i can remember it all now, even the break in time, but
i feel like i should be telling you this in person
[ that cheerful knock is met with a cheerful response, or at least a quick one anyway, the door sliding open just a couple seconds later, a wide grin on Raven's face ]
Hi.
[ the 'come in, come in' is implied, or at least.. physically demanded because she's reaching out to take his hand, tugging him into the room ]
[ it is, it's difficult being serious about serious things when the person you're with, or just being with the person you're with, makes you smile. she still gets that wound-up happy feeling in her chest, the one that comes with i like you and holding hands with someone you do, in fact, like in return. and it's all very cheesy, but that's the truth of it. so she doesn't let go of his hand until she's flopping down on her bed, uses her arms to push herself back until she's leaning against the wall. which, of course, is cold, so she grabs her pillows ( hey, there are a lot of empty rooms on the first floor now, so yeah, she took a few extra pillows ) and props them up along the wall where it meets the side of her bed, and pats the spot next to her ]
I like it, too. [ it's still very newnewnew, being ..well, cozy with someone in a not-platonic way, but it's not too tricky learning to relax into it. it's not long before she's brushing her fingers back into his hair, absently playing with it like she always seems to do ] I'd keep you close all the time if it wouldn't be completely selfish of me.
Of course I could! I really like hanging out with you. [ affection, affection, affection. it's stupid, it's needy of her. she doesn't care. ] Only I'm sure Sirius would be unhappy with me after a while. And I have rounds every few hours. [ hhhup, so much for serious conversation happening right away, because she's leaning in to give him a kiss as well. ]
[And then there's kissing, and he won't ever pull away from that-- and when they break away, he darts down for a second one, hungrier, his fingers tracing along her neck again--]
[ which draws a sound from her, something caught between a laugh and a hum, makes her turn her face the other way and kiss him once more. ] --that's cheating. [ but she's kissing him again so obviously she doesn't mind it ]

I'd rather that, if you wouldn't mind it.

[His knocks always manage to sound cheerful, because he's always happy to see Raven-- even talking about things like this, he's happy to see her.]

I have to say, I quite like living so close to you. It's terribly convenient.

[He tilts his head a little, pleased by her fingers.]
If you could stand my company for that long, that is. I'm told I'm rather grating after hour four.
[Leaning down, he kisses the side of her head fondly.]
