"Honestly," he says glancing at the blanket, "I just sort of... knitted. My conscious thoughts sort of ended and that's all I did for a day straight. Didn't think about anything else really. Just me and knitting. I'm glad you like it," he smiles looking back up at Viktor. "I just hope that Reg doesn't give you problems if you do keep it. How is he doing?" he asks, eager to hear about his once upon a time friend.

Viktor Krum - Inactive July 11th 2010, 5:23 am

"I hope so too. He's okay. A lot better now that he's out of the hospital ving. It feels like ve're in there together every other day," he says with a laugh. "I haven't seen much of him recently though. He's had to study for OWLS and stuff," he said with a shrug as Alex wonders if Scorp knows about the summer plans... I don't think so.

**Scorpius Malfoy** July 11th 2010, 5:38 am

"Oh, very true," he says with a small nod, then wonders if Faye has been studying for O.W.Ls lately. If not, he'll have to punish her. Yep, punish. He shakes his head and clears his throat, trying to clear himself of those kinds of thoughts. After all, it's been over two months since he's done anything of that sort with Faye. Oh merlin, stop thinking those things, he tells himself. "So err... doing anything interesting this summer?"

Viktor Krum - Inactive July 11th 2010, 5:52 am

Viktor's face lights up at the mention of summer, realizing that he hasn't told Scorpius yet. "Yes actually. I bought my own apartment in Bulgaria, and I've asked Regulus to live there vith me," he says with a big grin, trying not to think about summer where he'll have Regulus whenever he wants. Regulus and that arse. Mmm. Viktor needs sexxxxx....Which he's actually getting right now. Lucky duck.

**Scorpius Malfoy** July 11th 2010, 6:01 am

"That's great Viktor!" he says with a wide grin, immensely happy for his knitting buddy. "I'm sure he'll absolutely love it there, especially away from the family," he says. He wonders what it would be like if he were to live with just his girlfriend. Alone, a place of their own...alllllll alone. No! he tells himself putting the breaks on his thoughts. Stop thinking of having a place with Faye. Our own bedroom, kitchen, dining table, washing machine. STOP STOP STOP. He shakes his head once more. "Right, err...well I'm uhh, I'm sure he'll have an absolutely amazing time."

Viktor Krum - Inactive July 11th 2010, 6:07 am

Viktor smiles happily. "Yeah. It'll be great. For both of us," he said, thinking about the bedroom. It's a nice bedroom. Very nice indeed. The kitchen table will be great too. Nice and sturdy. Mmmm. Viktor quickly pushes these thoughts out of his mind. Not-so-little Viktor can't make an appearance right now. Nope. Bad idea. "Ve're both excited about it."

**Scorpius Malfoy** July 11th 2010, 6:17 am

"I'm sure you're both very err...excited about it, in more ways then ones," he finds himself saying. "I mean," he says hastily, "it's just...it'll be nice, for both of you! You'll have many good times. Not those good times! Though I mean, I'm sure there will be lots of hot sex! Gods, that's not what I meant to say! I mean, you don't have to have sex if you don't want to, though I'm just sure you will...yeah. Err...right."

Viktor Krum - Inactive July 11th 2010, 6:18 am

Viktor burst out laughing. "Yeah. I'm sure there vill be plenty of hot sex. To make up for right now," he added with a grumble as he wondered when he would get to so much as look at Regulus' arse again.

**Scorpius Malfoy** July 11th 2010, 6:25 am

"Ahhh, dry spell? Dry spells are the worst," he says with a sigh and an understanding nod. "Well, once you get out of school I'm sure it'll be much easier over the summer. I mean, I don't know how much I'll get to see Faye, considering our families. Just have to make the most of what we have now," he says.

Viktor Krum - Inactive July 11th 2010, 6:37 am

Viktor gave Scorpius a small, sympathetic smile. "I know vot you mean. Regulus' family isn't going to be pleased ven they find out about us. Reg said they'll kick him out of the house, vich is von of the reasons for him living vith me this summer."

**Scorpius Malfoy** July 11th 2010, 6:44 am

"Yeah, the Black family is far from nice," he says with a small sigh. "They can be down right cruel to anyone is slightly different from what they perceive to be 'normal'. I know that Reg hates me and all, but in terms of the Black family and then the Malfoys in particular, I'll stand by his side. I've learned to not give a shit what they think anymore."

Viktor Krum - Inactive July 11th 2010, 6:47 am

Viktor smiled. "Thanks Scorpius. That means a lot. I'm sure Regulus vill appreciate it. Vell, I hope he does eventually. I just hope he doesn't regret his decision. He's still a kid, and he's moving all the vay to Bulgaria for me. Then again, it's not like he has a lot of choices vonce his parents find out about him," he said sadly.

**Scorpius Malfoy** July 11th 2010, 6:51 am

"Yeah," he says thinking of how any Black parent would act. Kick him out of the house, fo' shizzle. "Well, if he ever needs a place to stay over here for some reason, I mean...like I said, I know he hates me, but I'm here for him. Both of you even, if you just want to visit England and want some place to crash, just come by the Manor. My father has been rather happy recently, what with getting married, so he really shouldn't mind that much."

Viktor Krum - Inactive July 11th 2010, 6:55 am

"That sounds great, Scorpius! You can come out and visit us too, you know. Being Viktor Krum has its advantages if you ever vant good seats to a game," he said with a grin.

**Scorpius Malfoy** July 11th 2010, 6:57 am

"That sounds great," he grins. "I haven't been to a game in ages. Haven't even been on a broom in ages actually," he says shaking his head slightly. "Can't even really recall the last time. Probably about four months ago. Damn, that's pathetic."

Viktor Krum - Inactive July 11th 2010, 7:09 am

Viktor laughs. "I can't imagine going that long vithout flying. Then again, after Regulus and I broke up, I ended up going a pretty long time vithout it. Don't know how I managed that," he said with a shrug.

**Scorpius Malfoy** July 11th 2010, 7:15 am

"Sometimes after an emotional situation like that, you need a break from doing the things you love. Plus, I'm sure that Quidditch reminds you of Reg, so the thought of flying must have hurt a bit. Me on the other hand, I don't really have any thing I'm good with. I mean... knitting was one thing, but then before I met Faye I was kind of well... a manwhore," he says with a small shrug. "When Faye and I recently... separated, the thought of merely kissing another girl repulsed me."

Viktor Krum - Inactive July 11th 2010, 7:17 am

"Vell the thought of kissing a girl repulses me too, but that's for different reasons," he said with a smirk to avoid them talking about sad things because right now Faye and Krack are happy...For now. -tear-

**Scorpius Malfoy** July 11th 2010, 7:20 am

"Well, you raise a fine point," he says with a light laugh. "Have you kissed a girl before?" Scorpius asks curiously. "I mean, you don't have to answer that... it's just... I dunno," he says with a slight shrug. "Being an international Quidditch star, I'm sure you'd have plenty of girls throwing themselves at you."

Viktor Krum - Inactive July 11th 2010, 5:06 pm

Viktor laughed. "That's fine. It's a good question, really. Um. I guess you didn't know this. I never really explained it, but I didn't know I vos gay until Regulus," he said with a small grin. "So yeah, I've kissed a ton of girls before this year. My first time vos vith a veela, actually," he told him because you don't hook up with a veela and not tell people about it. "I liked it at the time, but now the thought of kissing a girl is just...I don't know," he said with a shrug. "Not the same."

**Scorpius Malfoy** July 12th 2010, 12:27 am

"A Veela?" he asks raising an eyebrow. "Hot dayum," he says while shaking his head slightly. "Though, Veelas are the Bulgarian mascots, right? I hear that they are rather err... feisty and angry if approached the wrong way. Were they distracting when you played the game?" he asks, thinking of how hard it must be to focus on the game with the somewhat magical creature dancing around.

Viktor Krum - Inactive July 12th 2010, 4:58 am

Viktor shrugged. "Not too bad. Ve had practices and training vith them sometimes. That vay, ve'd be pretty much immune to their charms during an actual game. Gave us an advantage over the other team."

**Scorpius Malfoy** July 13th 2010, 1:06 am

"That's rather smart," he says in response to the immunity. Immunity makes Dom think of how she is immune to caffeine now. I guess that's what happens when you have one sixteen ounce iced coffee and two Mountain Dews a day. The effects of caffeine just wear off over time. Bugger. "Rather brilliant strategy. Not only does the other team have you as an excellent seeker to deal with, but they have to deal with focusing on the game and not getting distracted by the Veelas. I suppose playing for the school seems rather... slow paced compared to what you were used to before."

Viktor Krum - Inactive July 13th 2010, 3:03 am

"Yeah, just a bit," he said with a laugh. "Though, training vith Regulus is alvays fun. He's actually really good. A lot better than I expected ven I first told him I vould give him lessons. And the beaters for Gryffindor are actually good. Bulgaria's beaters sort of...vell, they had anger management issues and sometimes forgot to do their job."

**Scorpius Malfoy** July 13th 2010, 5:40 am

[I dunno if you're coming on later tonight... But this is actually it for me. I don't know what's wrong, but I've just been so effing tired lately. I'll definitely be on tmrw though because it's my day off]

Scorpius considers Viktor's frame for a moment and decides that the last thing he ever wants to come across is a Bulgarian with a Beater's bat. He actually finds himself feeling lucky that Viktor didn't go to the locker room at the pitch, borrow a Beater's bat, and seriously kick his ass after the Gellert situation. "I honestly can't wait to see Reg play," he says with a small smile. "I'm sure he'll make Slytherin proud. That is, if he isn't in the hospital wing for some reason or another."
