June 4th: The lair of the NHP

by **Sean Hall** » Sat Jun 11, 2011 12:11 am

Our friendly neighborhood Ninja Harry Potter walked into his room, and dropped the scrying spell he constantly used. He locked his door and headed over to the duffel he'd tossed into his closed a couple days ago and took out his costume. He examined the tunic itself sighing at its state of disrepair.

"Guess I'll have to make a new one," Sean said to himself as he carefully folded the costume. He then examined his mask.

I wonder what she would've said if I'd told her the truth?

He turned the mask in his hands before putting it on and falling back onto his bed staring at the ceiling.

The ghostly form of Guy, walked through the door and solidified.

"Nice mask," he smirked.

Sean's eyes widened a little seeing Gaius.

"To what do I owe this pleasure," Sean said mechanically trying to decide if he was about to be found out.

"Being alone in the penthouse was getting old. So..." he said before a smirk formed, "...I'm your new flatmate."

by **Sean Hall** » Sun Jun 19, 2011 8:46 pm

Sean's jaw dropped.

"You're what?" Sean asked.

by **Gaius Montgomery** » Sun Jun 19, 2011 9:09 pm

"Flatmate. Me. New."

by **Sean Hall** » Sun Jun 19, 2011 9:15 pm

"More trying to get in touch with the common man?" Sean asked.

by **Gaius Montgomery** » Sun Jun 19, 2011 9:23 pm

"Though I'm not entirely sure you count..." he mused, "But you are my only real friend here so far."

by **Sean Hall** » Sun Jun 19, 2011 9:51 pm

"I think you need to socialize a bit more if you're depending on me as your only friend," Sean chuckled.

by **Gaius Montgomery** » Mon Jun 20, 2011 11:32 am

"God. It really is bloody pathetic isn't it?" he sighed.

by **Sean Hall** » Mon Jun 20, 2011 6:13 pm

"Yes, to be honest it kind of is," Sean said.

by **Gaius Montgomery** » Mon Jun 20, 2011 6:28 pm

"And that's another thing. Friends telling me the truth and not what I want to hear? Weird."

by **Sean Hall** » Mon Jun 20, 2011 6:32 pm

"I think they call those sycophants, not friends," Sean said, "I don't gain anything by being your yes man."

by **Gaius Montgomery** » Mon Jun 20, 2011 6:36 pm

"I appreciate it."

Beat.

"I think."

by **Sean Hall** » Mon Jun 20, 2011 6:37 pm

"You should," Sean said removing the mask, "Maybe living with me will teach you a thing or two about normal people."

The last part was said perfectly deadpan.

by **Gaius Montgomery** » Mon Jun 20, 2011 6:46 pm

"Yes, you are the quintessential everyman," he answered, just as deadpan.

by **Sean Hall** » Mon Jun 20, 2011 6:51 pm

"Glad we've set that straight," Sean said putting the mask into one of his drawers.

by **Gaius Montgomery** » Mon Jun 20, 2011 7:04 pm

"So... a mask?" he smirked, "Are we fighting crime?"

by **Sean Hall** » Mon Jun 20, 2011 7:16 pm

"You know me, mild mannered college student by day, crazed vigilante by night," Sean smirked. "I made it."

by **Gaius Montgomery** » Mon Jun 20, 2011 8:06 pm

"And it shows," he teased.

by **Sean Hall** » Mon Jun 20, 2011 8:12 pm

"You just wish you knew how to sew," Sean said.

by **Gaius Montgomery** » Mon Jun 20, 2011 8:39 pm

"And where did you pick that skill up?"

by **Sean Hall** » Mon Jun 20, 2011 8:44 pm

"School," Sean said, "Some of us learned useful skills there rather than running off to the pub."

by **Gaius Montgomery** » Mon Jun 20, 2011 8:55 pm

"That or enjoying the headmaster's secret stash."

by **Sean Hall** » Mon Jun 20, 2011 8:58 pm

"There was also that," Sean smirked. "There was also learning how to survive in the wilderness, work leather, mend clothes, first aid."

by **Gaius Montgomery** » Mon Jun 20, 2011 9:05 pm

"You really are my opposite aren't you?"

by **Sean Hall** » Mon Jun 20, 2011 9:06 pm

"If you mean that I'm actually useful then the answer is yes," Sean smirked.

by **Gaius Montgomery** » Mon Jun 20, 2011 9:12 pm

"Pulling no punches are we Hall?" he mock-pouted.

by **Sean Hall** » Mon Jun 20, 2011 9:15 pm

"You need a good ego deflation," Sean said, "It is good for the soul."

by **Gaius Montgomery** » Mon Jun 20, 2011 9:57 pm

"Then by all means, continue."

by **Sean Hall** » Mon Jun 20, 2011 10:01 pm

"Are you a masochist or something?" Sean asked with a smirk. "You're a good guy, Gaius. You just need a bit of..."

by **Gaius Montgomery** » Tue Jun 21, 2011 12:27 pm

"Discipline?" he asked. "No. I lack the taste for... leather... required for that..." he added, trailing off.

"The proverbial silver spoon out of my ass?"

by **Sean Hall** » Tue Jun 21, 2011 6:52 pm

"Certainly couldn't hurt," Sean smirked.

by **Gaius Montgomery** » Tue Jun 21, 2011 7:01 pm

"Know a good proctologist?" he chuckled.

by **Sean Hall** » Tue Jun 21, 2011 7:03 pm

Sean chuckled.

"I'm sure you're capable of using the yellow pages," Sean said.

by **Gaius Montgomery** » Tue Jun 21, 2011 7:16 pm

"But I might get a paper cut, and we can't have that," he smirked.

by **Sean Hall** » Tue Jun 21, 2011 7:20 pm

"I'm sure you can figure out how to use a computer," Sean said.

by **Gaius Montgomery** » Tue Jun 21, 2011 7:51 pm

"Well, yes, there is that."

by **Sean Hall** » Tue Jun 21, 2011 7:53 pm

"You do know how to use a com-pu-ter, right?" Sean asked. "Or do I need to push keys for you."

by **Gaius Montgomery** » Tue Jun 21, 2011 7:59 pm

"Yes yes, I do," he chuckled, "Smartphones hate me though."
