Flying

[average-adam.livejournal.com]

Unable to wait any longer now that everyone had agreed to go flying with him, Adam sent owls to Nny, Susan, River, Kaylee, Teatime, Harry, Ginny, and Devi to let them know that he'd gone down to the Quidditch pitch and to meet him there. He snatched his broom and practically ran down to the field, excited to meet new people and get into the air once again.

"I never really had to worry about rules before. Which makes being here strange."

[teatimeassassin.livejournal.com]

"They can be rather inconvenient. All the same, I do try to follow them."

[waste-lock.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, well, you're meticulous that way."

[teatimeassassin.livejournal.com]

"I suppose so. I always take corrections and advice, too..."

[waste-lock.livejournal.com]

"That would be your patient streak showing."

[teatimeassassin.livejournal.com]

"I like getting things right." He grinned.

[waste-lock.livejournal.com]

"There is something to be said for that. I'm too tempermental to be that meticulous, really, but it seems to work well for you."

[teatimeassassin.livejournal.com]

"Being corrected gives one so much help in doing things right."

[waste-lock.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, but it also gives you so much help in getting incredibly pissed off at some condescending asshole."

[teatimeassassin.livejournal.com]

"Most instructors don't try to condescend to me."

[waste-lock.livejournal.com]

"Most people don't seem to have to try to be condescending, though. It's like it's built-in or something."

[teatimeassassin.livejournal.com]

"Oh, I don't particularly like those people..."

[waste-lock.livejournal.com]

"And there's so many of them."

[teatimeassassin.livejournal.com]

"I do try to get along with them, though."

[waste-lock.livejournal.com]

"I just kill `em."

[teatimeassassin.livejournal.com]

"Against the rules, really," Teatime said, furrowing his brow and staring off into the distance, as if contemplating the true lunacy of that. "But there is a lot that can be done with them."

[waste-lock.livejournal.com]

"What sort of things?"

[teatimeassassin.livejournal.com]

"The condescending usually have something that they think sets them above me, don't they?"

[waste-lock.livejournal.com]

"That pretty much goes with the whole condescension bit, yeah."

[teatimeassassin.livejournal.com]

"And what they possess can be a help."

[waste-lock.livejournal.com]

"Do you mean stealing, or am I missing something?"

[teatimeassassin.livejournal.com]

"Stealing? Oh, goodness, no. I'm an Assassin, not a thief."

[waste-lock.livejournal.com]

"So what do you mean, then?"

[teatimeassassin.livejournal.com]

"You can always use someone's things without taking them from them, whether that thing is power or possession. You merely need to ask politely." His grin glowed; this wasn't a deep dark secret, so why keep it like it was?

"That'd be your social skills again, right? Or is it your optimism?"
