"And you could always tell her that Cissa's sisters are out for blood, and may be a good idea to see some new people." She laughed and sat don, grabbing Sirius's hand as she did, pulling hm down with her. "Oh, do you know an Illie, or rather Millicent, Bulstrode? She is trying to get Marcus away from me."

Guest October 19th 2010, 10:31 pm

"Uh, no? She's a Slytherin, I'm guessing, so no, I probably wouldn't know her. Why, do I need to get rid of her for you? I've got a few ideas I can think of, if you want to get her out of your hair-- or out of Marcus', rather. I mean, you could just spread a rumor that she's got herpes, but you know, that wouldn't be very nice."

**Andromeda Black** October 19th 2010, 10:33 pm

"She looks like a corpse already... anorexia, probably." She rolled her eyes, disgusted at the idea of someone so weak as to be killing themselves over how they looked. She was gorgeous, she knew it, so Andi was ignorant of everyone's troubles with their body. "I mean, I could always do rumours, but if she shows up to him in tears, promising it isn't true... where am I?"

Guest October 19th 2010, 10:39 pm

"True enough. You know, what we could do? Set her up with someone else, so she forgets about wanting Marcus in the first place. I could probably find a friend," he said, mentally going through the list of single guys he knew. "Is she ugly or pretty, besides being anorexic, or whatever?"

**Andromeda Black** October 19th 2010, 10:41 pm

"She's decent. I mean, if she had meat on her bones, she's be a pretty little thing. But, right now at least, it is really obvious she hates herself, and she is pretty unattractive because of that. Plus, I think she is fixated on Marcus, and anyone else just won't do."

Guest October 19th 2010, 10:44 pm

"Well, are you putting out?" he asked bluntly, not bothering with tact. "Because if this Illie girl is spreading her legs for him, and you aren't, he's lost already, I'll be honest. I know guys."

**Andromeda Black** October 19th 2010, 10:47 pm

"Not really..." She hesitated. "I know it is silly, but I am scared and I want it to mean something and I know that is pathetically girly but I don't want to lose him and do you think I really have to do it or would more kissing and petting do..." She trailed off, about to burst into tears. "I just don't know what to do!"

Guest October 19th 2010, 10:52 pm

Okay, let's remember, Sirius is Sirius. He has no idea how to deal with crying girls, so if Andi starts crying, Sirius is going to start panicking. Fuck, shit, he's already panicking. "Wha-- oh? No no no, that's not what I'm saying, I'm not TELLING you to sleep with him, I'm just saying that he might-- oh shit, don't cry, please don't cry, I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WHEN GIRLS CRY!" he exclaimed, flailing about. "That's it. Can we just solve this the Sirius way, and have me have a nice little chat with Marcus, yeah? Because you are not silly and stupid and pathetic for wanting it to mean something, okay? Just... not most guys want that too. I mean, don't get me wrong, there ARE guys out there that want the same thing you do, I know it's true, they're just hard to find-- you just need to know what kind of guy this Marcus is, I think. And if he's worth it."

**Andromeda Black** October 19th 2010, 10:59 pm

Andi angrily brushed away the one tear that fell. "I won't cry." She forced herself to smile haughtily. "I don't cry." She shook her head vehemently when Sirius suggested talking to him. "No, I can deal with this on my own. You are right, of course, that I need to be more physical with him. I'll see how that goes before making my decision." She sighed, and looked at Sirius. "He'd be worth it. He is charming and kind and mysterious... and I have so much fun around him." She folded her hands and looked down. "I am sure of that." And while Addie sits here and laughs about how she is starting to fuck her life up, Andi ignored the part of her that whispered she'd sleep with him before she was ready to keep him close.

Guest October 19th 2010, 11:02 pm

"Hey! I'm not saying you need to be more physical with him, I'm just saying that-- oh, bugger, I'm no good at this, stop asking me for advice! I'm like, the Anti-Dr.Phil, don't you know?! Look. I give the worst romantic advice ever. If you want to get laid, I'm your man on teaching you that. You want to better understand the bro code, I'm chill. But dude, relationships are so not my thing, you're better off talking to, I don't know, your friends? Because I'll probably tell you to do something stupid that'd make things worse. I just-- Andi, don't fuck him because you want to keep him around, fuck him because you want to fuck him. If he's using you just for sex, he isn't worth it. If you want a guy that's worth something in the long term, pick one that'll wait for you to be ready, okay?"

**Andromeda Black** October 19th 2010, 11:04 pm

She giggled. "You think you are bad at advice, but once you get flustered enough, you give really good advice." She changed the subject, about as subtly as smashing a vase. "So, what is this Bro Code you mentioned?"

Guest October 19th 2010, 11:07 pm

"Flustered? Yeah, I am flustered. But anyway-- shit. You aren't supposed to know about that. It's rule number four. I am afraid I will have to Obliviate you now-- OBLIVIATE!" he says, pulling out his wand and totally erasing any memory of Andi hearing the words Bro Code. YES I JUST GODMODDED WHACHU GONN' DO ABOUT IT, HM?

**Andromeda Black** October 19th 2010, 11:09 pm

Andi blinked up at him. "What were we talking about, I must have zoned out for a second."

Guest October 19th 2010, 11:10 pm

Sirius is amused. "Um, you were totally telling me how I have the most gorgeous, fantastic hair ever, obviously."

**Andromeda Black** October 19th 2010, 11:13 pm

Andi laughed, and reached up to tug it a little. "The way you go on about it..." She shook her head. "It is very nice, of course." She shook her hair out over her shoulder. "I like mine better though."

Guest October 19th 2010, 11:18 pm

"That's because we're both Blacks and therefore equally arrogant and egotistical. However, as you are not a male, I think we can safely say we're equally sexy in our own ways, I'll just be the sexiest male black, and you can be the sexiest female one. Just don't let Bella hear, or she'll hex us both."

**Andromeda Black** October 19th 2010, 11:21 pm

"She'd hex you... but she'd kill me just to eliminate competition." Andi flipped her hair over her shoulder.

Guest October 19th 2010, 11:23 pm

"That... is disturbingly true. Please don't die, you're the only family member I like, remember? Only because you're not completely insane and elitist, like your sisters. And Reg, for that matter. Fuck, I just... don't fit in with our family at all, do I? But honestly, I'm not sure I care. I used to, but lately, I just don't."

**Andromeda Black** October 19th 2010, 11:27 pm

"just don't do something stupid, like run away. Then who would I have to talk to at all the family parties?" She pouted up at him. "I know we can suck at times, but remember all the good times? When we all would play together as kids?"

Guest October 19th 2010, 11:35 pm

"They were nice, Andi, but it's different now that we've grown up. I hate living at home, Andi. I mean, mum is great at spoiling us, and I love her for the motorcycle, but I mean, I just can't stand the way they are, sometimes. You know me well enough to know I don't exactly agree with our family's... views," he said, frowning slightly. "If my mum knew about some of my closest friends, she'd freak out." Like Remus. She's one of those horrible people, Remus, the kind that hate you, for no good reason. And I'm sorry for that.

**Andromeda Black** October 19th 2010, 11:37 pm

"And if Mum knew I was thinking about having sex, she'd send me off to the magical equivalent of a nunnery. That is why secrets are good." She grabbed Sirius's hand. "I know they can be horrible and racist, but they are family. They are the only family we have. How can we leave them?"

Guest October 19th 2010, 11:39 pm

"I didn't say I was leaving, I was just saying I don't really fit in, and I hate-- I hate her, for some of the things she says. Like about muggleborns, or 'half breeds,' like she likes to call some people. Like werewolves, and stuff. That just makes me so mad-- how can they be any less real, any less human? They're not. But if I ever said something like that to her, she'd probably toss me on the door step and blast me off the family tree. I hate having to lie, whenever I'm at home, and pretend I agree with her, but Andi, I just don't. Please don't tell anyone I said that, though, I know I can trust you," he said, frowning as he looked at her.

**Andromeda Black** October 19th 2010, 11:43 pm

"I'd never tell. Besides, how could I when I agree with some of it? I mean, magic is magic, right? And if someone has magic, they are obviously meant to have it. So why should I care who their families are? Besides, I am related to most purebloods, and it feels creepy to flirt with them."

Guest October 19th 2010, 11:49 pm

"Truth! You speak truth," he laughed, facepalming. "Why do you think I've got a date with two foreign transfer chics? I'm fairly sure we're not related to any families down by Beauxbatons Academy," he laughed, thinking about Polly and Fleur. Oh, I don't think he told Andi that Polly's not the only date he's got coming up.

**Andromeda Black** October 19th 2010, 11:52 pm

"Two? As is two different girls? Half of my wants to slap you, and the other half wants to clap you on the back and call you a stud." Andi laughed. "You heartbreak maker. Thank Merlin I am you cousin and safe from all of that."
