[ 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.

How long did you stay?

couldn't have been more than 24 hours. but i didn't really have any control over it.

Do you regret it?

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.

[The thought sends a little jolt of fear running through him, but Remus ignores it as firmly as he can.]

Well, perhaps we'll be able to prepare more.

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

[A beat.]

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

come by my room, i've got the place to myself. ..as always. c:

Fifteen minutes. :)

[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.]

[ 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 ]

[He can't help but smile as she tugs him in-- even with all the things they spoke of, he can't help but be cheered by Raven's presence.]

Shall we sit?

Weee shall, yes.

[ 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 ]

[He scoots in next to her, curling against her-- and then throws an arm around her, tugging her close.]

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

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.

I could stand a little selfishness.

[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.]

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 ]

Shall I stop, then?

[He grins against her mouth, his fingers dragging down.]

[ Raven responds accordingly with the draw of his fingers, her head tipping back, lips parted a bit ] Nooo. [ because she likes it way too much, even if it's difficult to do anything besides keen and kiss when he does it ] I'm going to find your sweet spot and never stop once I do, then you'll see.

And I anticipate the day-- but until then, darling, I rather think I have the advantage--

[He drags his fingers down a little, tracing along the front of her throat experimentally-- and he kisses her again, this one a bit hungrier--]

[ nnh. it actually tickles a little, but it's not enough to make her laugh, instead it just sort of sends a chill up her spine, makes her move a little bit closer as she kisses him back. she likes when his kisses are hard pressed, finds it easy to give into it and match his enthusiasm. and yes, okay, she's definitely already working on that hunt for a sweet spot because her hand drops down to his hip, fingers splayed wide as it slowly pushes up along his side. ]

[He lets out a little noise and pushes his hip forward a little encouraging that touch-- just like that-- and he brushes his thumb against the base of her throat as his other fingers wander toward the side again--]

[ hmm. her hand stops, just so she can slide it back down, the heel of her hand pressed against the jut of his hip again, deliberate. if nothing else, it's easy to hold on there when the rest of her is pushing up into kissing him, neck stretched because why wouldn't she when he's touching her like that. she's also going to bite at his lower lip now, a soft drag of teeth until she's pulling away completely just because she can. ] ..m'on the right track? [ just going to move her hand a little lower, not anywhere too forward, but low on his hip ]
