"I don't know...." I shrug a bit, shaking my head. "People like me as well, to be honest. That's what's always been so weird about us. He's a psychotic, murdering deatheater who thinks it's amusing to cause people pain - or he was," I add quickly, not wanting Riley to get the wrong idea and turn him in or something. "- and I'm... or was, I dunno if I still am... a weak, pathetic, muggle-loving blood traitor." I shrug again, laughing slightly. "Each of us is everything the other person hated, but... I don't know."
I frown slightly now, trying to remember what the actual question was that I was trying to answer before I got slightly off track. It feels very strange to be talking about Logan like this when he's right in the next room and can possibly hear me. I half want to make sure he does, half want to over-qualify my statements in case they're somehow wrong.

I listen to all she has to say, not quite finding an answer to my question at what she's said. I nodded faintly, trying to take all of this in. So they get along, but they shouldn't because they're complete opposites and really he can't stand people like her. Except that he can stand her specifically.
"So um.. You shouldn't be getting along, but you do.." I said looking at her, watching her frown slightly. "And you feel safe with him living here?" I asked glancing back into the other room for a second.

"Sure," I shrug, glancing over at the living room again. "Even if he hadn't... turned sane, and even if it really is temporary... he's never really done anything to me specifically." I roll my eyes innocently around the kitchen at this, because I'm not sure it's really strictly true... but it's true in general so that's all right.
"You, on the other hand, might want to be careful not to piss him off," I add, eying him mildly worriedly. "Just in case the sanity's not permanent and all... and, like I said, you kind of fall into that category, the same one that I'm in but without the magically elusive quality, whatever it is, that keeps him from actually despising me. So... just be careful."

I nodded slightly, wondering if I should be believing her when she told me that he had never done anything to her. I notice her eyes roll around the kitchen and really wouldn't mind asking her again, but this was probably just me being paranoid.
"You're sure he's never done anything?" I asked again, looking at her.
She eyed me worriedly and I glanced back in the living room again. "Right.. I'll try to be careful.. but yeah.. He's already decided to hate me, so I don't much else I can do to stop that. Think he might be scared I'm going to turn him in though.."

Dammit... nice poker face.
"Nothing that matters or counts," I shrug, hoping the subject can drop now. "And yeah, there is that... but only someone sane really worries about getting caught." I pause a moment, then eye him cautiously again. "You don't have any plans to turn him in, do you?"

"You can't think I'm going to drop something like that." I said raising my eyebrows faintly for a moment, now wonderng what he's done to her.
I nodded faintly, "I guess that makes sense." I said back to her, then hearing her question and shaking my head. "No, I wasn't planning on it.."

I nod, automatically feeling myself relax, and then shrug. I suppose it won't help if I ignore it, so....
"Only... mainly when we were kids. I mean, every kid tries to choke their friends sometimes, or throws rocks at people and such. We all did. So that doesn't matter or count."

"But if he even touches you, I can't gaurentee anything." I added looking over to her. And I really didn't think that I could, I didn't really want to turn him in, but if he does something horrible, I probably would think about it.
She started talking again and I looked over to her. "I don't really think every kid tries to do something like that..." I said quietly and slightly worriedly over to her.

"Fine," I say quietly, shrugging. "I haven't made any guarantees if he goes back to how he used to be, either." I pause again to think over what he says next, then give a sheepish half-shrug. "Well, maybe not... probably not... but all of us did."

I nodded faintly, "Okay.." I said quietly, then letting out a small breath and rubbing the back of my neck for a moment. ".. but I hope that he doesn't.. do anything, that is." I added with a faint nod.
I looked over to her, watching her shrug, slightly sheepishly. I nodded faintly at what she said. "... Then I guess it was normal enough." I said, biting my lip a little bit, not really reasling before that it would have included her in doing those things, but now it had and I felt sort of bad for saying what I did.
"Um.. Can I hug you, now?" I asked with a faint smile over to her.

Mm... me too, I agree, fervently but silently, nodding... and then shaking my head almost immediately. "No, it was twisted and weird, probably. We were all twisted and weird and really I doubt that most kids are that violent." I frown very slightly, before changing expression yet again - this time to a faint, bemused smile - when the last thing he's said registers. "Any particular reason?"

I shrugged faintly, "It is sort of weird.. yeah." I say agreeing with her. "But I'm sure that there were worse things." I add, shaking my head a little bit. "From other people, I mean." I said looking over to her, fiddling slightly with the end of my shirt.
I chuckled faintly, seeing her faint smile and shrugged a little bit. "I just want to hug you." I said with a faint shrug. That and I sort of felt bad for the comment on what she said about her childhood.

"Well, all right then...." I laugh slightly, still a little bemused but moving over to hug him anyway. I actually have no idea what he meant by the comment just before that, but decide not to mention.

Really, all I meant was that, somewhere, there was probably a group of kids, doing something a lot worse than what they did. Even if what they did, was kind of... strange. Actually, I wasn't quite too sure what to think about it still, which is why for right now, I just decided not to think about it. Mainly becuase I just really wanted to hug her right now.
I chucked faintly and smiled, "Thanks.." I said, smiling and hugging her closely to me after she moved closer to hug me.
