I shrug back, staying silent as I head up to my house and unlock the door. The only thing that's come to mind to say is 'have something against muggles, do you?' and obviously that's a stupid question.

I follow her up to the house, half-glad she chose not to say anything to that because I don't know what my reply would be.
Obviously I'm trying not to be so much of a bigot, but it's sort of impossible, so it's probably best to pretend that this isn't a muggle place and to just ignore muggle things as much as possible.

And this is mildly weird - going into the house together like this. Except it really isn't all that weird, probably, and maybe I'm just second-guessing like usual. Or maybe I just hate silence. And I still wish I knew where the hell he could possibly have been and what he's been doing for the past two days, or whatever it was.

"Hm...should probably say something..." I shrug.
Not that she should probably say something...I was just getting sick of the silence and couldn't think of a better way to break it.

I shrug, biting my lip lightly a moment and then shrug again. "Do you not find it odd that you haven't killed or tortured anyone in the last two days?" I ask kind of abruptly as I remember. "I mean... I was kind of worried about that, as well as about how you were. But you really didn't go kill Riley, or take out your anger on some random passerby?" Or were you just not that bothered?

I pause a moment, frowning slightly because that actually hadn't crossed my mind that maybe it was a little out of character.
"Ah...I suppose, that was a little odd. But no, I didn't."

I glance at her oddly again, which is more justified this time because of the way she's looking at me.
Even when I was a full blown psychopath and loyal death eater and whatever else, it's not as if I killed and tortured someone every day.
But I suppose that I would have if I'd been as annoyed as I was yesterday, so maybe it is significant after all that I didn't.
But I don't know what it means, and I don't really want to examine myself to find out, because self-anaylsis isn't good for someone like me.
So I just shrug.

What with killing that woman, and torturing Shelby, and then sleeping with her alter-ego and all.

I shake my head automatically, but then again... while I don't think he needs to apologize for something he did while insane, I have to admit I'm still a little hurt - even though I forgave him and it's perfectly understandable - that he cheated on me. So instead I shrug.
"I hope I'm not forgiving you too easily again, like I used to." I mention after a moment, perhaps unnecessarily.

I'm not just going to tell her to decide to unforgive me or something, because I wouldn't know how to go about actually deserving forgiveness anyway.
