[The sound of fingernails drumming on wood, and then a seemingly frustrated sigh]

It's so boring being in this room all on my own. You know, I think I'm almost lonely. Jaina, darling, I miss you; I can't imagine why you wouldn't want to move back in now that Ophelia's gone and disappeared on us. It's not like I haven't been perfectly willing to

PRIVATE! also voice

[not_caedus]

You...

Larxene, was it?

[uncertainty, in his voice. hesitation, even.]

Jaina hasn't been in her dorm?

You--you're her Housemate, right?

Is she...doing okay?

[Private, although she considered having it not be] Voice~

[toywiththeworld]

Hmm? Oh, yes, that's me. Larxene Smith, Seventh Year Slytherin.

No, she left when I got back from hospital. I wanted to make things right between us, but...no such luck. I think she's been staying in one of the Gryffindor Boys dorms?

I'm really not sure how she's doing, but I can't imagine she'd be taking her behaviour over the Masquearade too lightly. I do hope she's all right.

Oh, I'm terribly sorry, but I don't know your name! I've been rather absent minded over the past few weeks, I'm afraid.

oh god jacen don't do it [private; voice]

[not_caedus]

Nice to meet you, Larxene. Oh, I'm sorry I didn't introduce myself. I'm Jacen. Jacen Solo. Jaina's twin. I transferred in from Beauxbatons, probably while you were...were, um, at the hospital?

I won't pry, but I'm glad to hear you're okay after a visit there.

[another pause, as he moves to address Jaina's situation]

I...the boy's dorms? I, um. Okay.

Thank you for telling me this, Larxene. I really appreciate it.

it will be wonderful and amazing [private; voice]

[toywiththeworld]

Really? She never mentioned she had a twin, how strange.

Oh, it's fairly common knowledge. My magic has been something of an anomaly ever since I was hit by lightning when I was younger. I...well, I suppose you'll hear about it eventually, Hogwarts being what it is. I lost control of it a few months ago and accidentally shattered a boy's kneecap, and destroyed the Slytherin Common Room. It was decided that it would be best to send me to St Mungo's to see if they could help me.

[A pause, and then a faintly nervous laugh]

Sorry, you probably don't want to hear about any of that! And yes, although I'm not sure which one in particular. I think Professor Tilman-Sinclair may have put a stop to it since I first found out though, I'm not entirely sure.

It's no trouble, Jacen.

[abovetwinsuns]

What happened between Seifer and I is none of your business.

[toywiththeworld]

Oh, Jaina, you know what Seifer's like. He can be so horribly dramatic about things sometimes, you can't help but overhear.

[abovetwinsuns]

Overhearing something doesn't equate to it involving you.

[toywiththeworld]

My, you can be so harsh sometimes, Jaina. I was only trying to help.

Why on earth didn't you tell me you had a twin, by the way?

[amiably]

...

[Voice]

[toywiththeworld]

Oh Alma! I'm so sorry, I forgot that you were her friend as well. I'm afraid I simply haven't been all there since returning from St Mungo's. How have you been holding up, darling?

[amiably]

...I am well, thank you. As is Teta.

[toywiththeworld]

I'm glad to hear it.

[chairismine]

I'm surprised you're ever bored, Larxene~

[toywiththeworld]

Oh, I'm certain you understand my dilemma, Jim~

[chairismine]

Aren't you lucky everyone else has problems to take your mind off the boredom?

[toywiththeworld]

Now, Jim. When did I ever seem like that sort of person who would use others for their own amusement?

[chainedlotus]

None of your business but, thanks for the concern.

[voice]

[toywiththeworld]

My, you are serious about this one, aren't you? I do hope you won't break her heart.

[voice]

[chainedlotus]

You sound surprised at this.

[voice]

[toywiththeworld]

Aren't I allowed to be?
