Good old February. Never outstays its welcome.

[Draco]
Quick question. Have your parents read my erotic novel? Specifically chapter eight. I've decided I'm staying at Malfoy Manor this weekend, and I'd be happy to treat them to a dramatic reading at dinnertime, if you'd like? With sock puppets.

Not really. But I am staying at the Manor -- I have my reasons. I'll then give you my answer to that [...] thing on Monday morning.

Deal?

[Olivia]
I have mildly disturbing news.

	It has been, yeah. [Nev] Look this is weird, but can I talk to you about something? You can't tell anyone, especially not your parents. Not yet, anyway. I know you have a shit load on your plate anyway, but that's what family's for, right? Adding to the shit. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Of course. You don't need to ask. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Malfoy asked me to marry him. Not in a weird romantic way, obviously. His mother is pushing him to marry and he's fucking useless and he asked me. He has some grand plan about satisfying his parents by marrying a pureblood noblewoman whilst he carries on with Granger. It's stupid, yeah? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Er. Yeah. Exceptionally stupid. You deserve better than someone else's grand plan. You're not actually considering it, are you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Do I, though? It's all a game, I really don't care that much. Never have, you know that. I want to help him. Merlin knows why. Personally, I think he should just run away to Australia and live happily ever after down under. He's so fucking weird about his family though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Maybe someday you'll meet someone who makes you care. I dunno. It's Draco's problem, not yours. And you know how I feel about arranged marriages, anyway. I won't tell you not to, because that's your choice to make, but Merlin, Pans. There's got to be a better way to help him than that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

You're such a romantic, Nev.

I'm going to stay at Malfoy Manor this weekend and assess the situation. See what his family are like towards him. I think he's just overreacting - as usual.

Might just rip the band-aid off for him and tell his folks. Would that just be cruel? Or would it be more of a cruel-to-be-kind situation? I don't know. Living a lie surely isn't good, and his parents aren't that bad. They probably wouldn't kill him or anything.

	You aren't running away with the magician, are you? Should we be drinking when you tell me? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Olivia pugnacity_ 2018-03-01 12:59 pm UTC (link)
	Hah, I wish. Alas, it was never meant to be. And we should always be drinking, Livs. Long story short, Malfoy wants me to marry him so he can keep lying to his parents about shagging Granger. Apparently, he considered asking you, as well. Don't you feel flattered? I haven't given an answer. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Wait..what?! How do you feel about this? Is he going to have children with Granger and pass them off as yours? For the love of.. How does he think he'll be able to keep up this facade forever? (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I -- no, I truly hope not. And please -- please don't. I...can't stop thinking about it now. Though sock puppets were better than I was thinking. Though sock puppets were better than what I was envisioning. You're welcome to stay -- if you keep your hands off the silverware. Mother is slightly more fond of that than the bourbon. All right. Fair enough. (Reply to this)
