Who: Lori
Where: The gym
When: 4 September, 2025, 2 p.m.
Summary: Lori needs activity and solitude.
Scorpius was back in the castle, and he should be happy. But he kept thinking about what happened with Jacob, and how much it hurt to look at his boyfriend. He needed to tell him, he should tell him, but it was easier to just...not. If he ignored it, the gnawing sense of guilt in his stomach would have to go away.
He'd found that keeping busy made things easier, and had taken to spending a couple of hours in the gym almost everyday. When he wasn't there, he was in the infirmary, or studying in the reading room. If he filled his mind with potions and spells, and exhausted his body with exercise and training, he could just about forget what a horrible person he was.
At the moment, he was sitting in the little reading room, every medical book he'd been able to find about catatonic states spread out around him. His mother wasn't exactly catatonic, but he didn't know how else to explain the long periods of time she went just sitting and staring, sometimes talking about things only she could see. He kept hoping she'd snap out of it, and she would for a few hours, but would fall right back into her own world again.
He sighed, and pushed away the books. He was getting no where, and his eyes were aching. He needed a little break. The gym was right down the hall, and while there wasn't much there he could use the equipment that was, and try to clear his head a bit. He transfigured his robes into something more appropriate for exercise and made his way over. It was empty, but that was all right. He didn't think he was up for company at the moment anyway.
