"Yeah, could tell it was sarcasm, gets used a lot in my family, especailly from MJ, damn her and that smart ass mouth of hers," He chuckles,"Yeah, well mainly Kaleb vs Sally and everyone vs Perry."

I grin again. "Poor Perry... what'd he ever do?"

"Er...well my little brother's a bit...unbalanced, kind of dark and stuff."

"Oh..." I say, nodding. "Not so tolerated in your family then?"

"Well not really, we try and stay away from the rest of the pure blood interets,"

"Probably intelligent of you," I nod. "No one should ever be told that they're better than other people, because once they start believing it, the other people are screwed."

"Yeah, no kidding. Sadly, we all went through the whole 'pure blood stage'." And what's worse some of us are still stuck there

"Not a good place to be," I nod. "But at least if it's just a stage you got through it, as opposed to still thinking that way."

"Yeah." He nods.

"My little sister was always the type who got in trouble for playing with Muggle-made toys, befriending house elves, and asking all our relatives if pure-bloods are inbred," I say, laughing slightly and not sure why he should possibly care. "I, on the other hand, managed to convince myself that all great works of Muggle art and literature were somehow stolen from wizards, because I couldn't bring myself to believe they could be just as good as us."

"My little brother is still stuck in the 'Im pure, so I'm better then you phase', he was a Slytherin so go figure." He shurgs,"My family all went through that phase but we grew out of it, well some of us at least."

I nod. "It's pretty hard to grow out of... especially if you're surrounded by people who tell you it's the right way to be. There's probably still hope though, if he's out of school now and the rest of you don't hold to that."

"He's..well he's not as bad as he was." He says, for better lack of explaination.

"So... hope then," I nod, shrugging. "Maybe he's growing out of it."

"Yeah, growing out of it." Chase mumbles, knowing it wasn't true. More like growing worse

I nod, then notice the non-conviction. "You don't really think so, I take it?" I ask, crossing my arms and leaning back against the wall.

"No," He admits,"Not really. Really horrid thing to say, I know, but I don't."

"What's horrid about it?" I ask. "You're worried that your little brother is... a bigoted... prat," I say, trying to be nice about the words I use. "You're perfectly entitled to be worried."

"Family shouldn't put each other down, family's suppose to be there for you," He says,"And our families pretty close, sucks that we can't help him."

"It really takes a lot to change your mind about things like that," I shrug. "You don't think he's actually... on the wrong side, do you?"

"A death eater?" He asks,"No, not Perry. Not my little brother." It's possible. No, he's not that bad. "He wouldn't do that."

I nod, noting the excessive denial. Way to give the guy something else to worry about. "Well, if he's not that bad, I'm sure he'll come around," I shrug. "And even if he is worse than you think... believe me, there's hope." Reminded why I came here, I glance up and down the corridor again before I remember that it really makes no difference since I don't know where to go.

"Hope," He laughs slightly,"My family's got a lot of that," He grins weakly.

"Better thing than some families," I mutter, shrugging. "Just give it time, I guess."

I nod back, realizing that the conversation is pretty much dead and turning away to try and figure out... how to leave the building, really, since there's nothing for me here. I turn back again abruptly. "Hey... have you ever... whether at school or since... had any reason to speak to Professor Dumbledore?" I ask. "And is he pretty approachable?"

Post by Chase Parker on Oct 21, 2007 14:48:31 GMT
"Dumbledore? Good man," He nods,"Yeah, talked to him loads of times, in and out of school, friend of the family." He slips his hands into his jacket pocket then takes them out again,"Yeah, he's approachable, you need any help and he's always there to listen."

I nod. "Okay... thanks. That's a help. He's kind of considered a joke down in Slytherin... 'mudblood lover' and such, so I figured he must be all right." I nod again. "Thanks a lot."

Chase flinches at the word. "Mind not saying that?" He asks,"But yeah, he's a good man. Been there for my family loads of times."

"Oh... right," I nod. "Sorry. Forgot that it's offensive." I pause. "Take it that you're not, though, if your family knows Dumbledore so well."
