[doggedly]

Not really, no, but we're talking about it again, aren't we, so that's a start.

[theshabbiestofmen]

No, we aren't, because you need two for a conversation and I'm ending this.

[doggedly]

You aren't any fun at all, y'know, not even a slight bit.

[theshabbiestofmen]

I'm not meant to be fun. I was never built for it, you knew that even in school.

[doggedly]

What a lie. We had all sorts of fun. Is this 'cos your memory is slipping?

[theshabbiestofmen]

Do you remember who suggested said activities? It wasn't me.

[doggedly]

Ah, but that's an argument against the history of their inception. I never said that you generated the fun, I said you participated, and so you did. And had fun. Right?

Right!

[theshabbiestofmen]

[A SIGH, but just a little too pointed to be really real.]

[doggedly]

Admit it. You had fun. Admit it.

[theshabbiestofmen]

I admit to no such thing, Sirius, and I won't no matter how much you badger me.

[doggedly]

Ah, well. S'ppose it's all right, as I know the actual truth.

[theshabbiestofmen]

Or a version of it, anyway. By the way, speaking of fun-- have you been speaking to Jenna lately?

[doggedly]

Er-- have I?

[theshabbiestofmen]

She referred to you as the boy who scoffed at the idea a girl could outdrink him.

[doggedly]

Oh, well, it's a ridiculous suggestion, innit! I don't care who she is!

[theshabbiestofmen]

She's a vampire. I rather imagine she could out-do anything in comparison to you.

[doggedly]

[.....well.]

I take you on quite well, thanks.

[theshabbiestofmen]

Yes, but I should imagine I'd be a poor drinker if I was entirely human anyway.

[doggedly]

I can hold my own, thanks! Against her, against you--against anyone! Just 'cos you don't believe me!

[theshabbiestofmen]

If she's anything like vampires at home, no, you can't. It's not a matter of not believing you, it's a matter of going against supernatural forces. You do remember studying vampires, don't you?

[doggedly]

Is this going to turn into a lesson....

[theshabbiestofmen]

It might, if I think you've forgotten everything you learned in third year.

[doggedly]

I haven't! I remember loads about vampires and werewolves and all of it, don't be stupid. I'm only saying, they might not be the same sort that we have.

[theshabbiestofmen]

She's certainly more charismatic than ours. Not as pale, either, though I have to find out if she can go into the sun or not.

[doggedly]

Precisely. Not that we'll see much sun here, I s'ppose, but--precisely all the same. So, more charismatic, more charming--and thus, easy to beat in a drinking contest

Perhaps.
