Who: Draco and Tia
What: Hanging out
Where: Tia's room
When: Monday
Warning: Shouldn't be any

After letting Draco in, she let him back to her room and sat back down on the bed. Her room looked like an organized mess with boxes everywhere, some filled and some empty, and different piles made throughout the space. She was trying to figure out what Bubbles might like and what she wanted to donate to the community area that was in the building.

"Ignore the mess" She told him with a laugh as she closed her eyes, using her telekinesis power to move a pile of clothes from her bed into the floor so he would have room to sit with her. She would have used her hands, use, but what was the fun of having special powers if you couldn't use them?

She was glad that Draco came over to keep her company while she sorted through all of this. With the response he gave, she didn't expect him to tell her why he felt like he wasn't worthy of kindness, and that was okay. She'd put the offer out there and that was what mattered. He would tell her when he was ready, whenever that was.

"Are you feeling any better?" She wondered as she opened her eyes and looked at him.

Draco was glad to have Tia. Nothing felt complicated with her. He supposed that came from knowing her when he was little. Still, aging up and gaining memories of his younger days in Goodland left him feeling dizzy and overwhelmed. He came from a hard time in his life so reconciling Goodland with the war was tough.

He watched her move the clothes without so much a spell. It was impressive. However, she broke him out of his thoughts with her question. "I'm alright," he said, "just getting used to everything. How are you doing with it all?"

Tia felt the same way about Draco. Things flowed so easily and simply with him now that they were teenagers. It was like they'd grown up together all along instead of over night. Tia really liked that. She really really comfortable having him in her room on her bed. Being around him was one of only things that kind of made sense to her at the moment.

"I'm a little overwhelmed with all of the memories in my head but I'm okay other than that I suppose" She told him as she sat back against her pillow wall. She, Thor, and Torunn had gone shopping earlier and now her purple-blue bedding was more for her age. "I'm just trying to focus on the now, you know? It doesn't look like we'll be going back to kids any time soon. That's why I'm going through all of this so it can be out with the old and in with the new" She told him as she gestured to all of the piles.

	Draco nodded. "Yeah, I should probably do something about my..." His what? His room? His flat? He was certain the twins would want him out now that he was older, but he'd mostly been avoiding them since the fiasco. He shrugged. "My living arrangements." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Maybe you can talk to the Entity about getting your own apartment" She paused for a moment then smiled. "I mean flat. That's what you call it, right?" She added on, remembering him using that word before. She had picked up in his use of different words here and there as the more they hung out and had been store them in her mind for times just like this. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

He chuckled. "Yeah, flat," he agreed. "And maybe." He was used to living alone. He left the Manor after the war to live in a cottage in the English countryside. Truthfully? He'd spoken to more people in Goodland than he had in ages. Still, he didn't want to rock the boat. "I sort of had my full of all powerful beings," he admitted. There was something about Tia that made him drop his guard. Perhaps because she didn't know him before the war. "Sort of fell in with a bad one back home."

She nodded her head as she brought her knees up to her chest, wrapping her arms around them as she listened to him. She had hoped he would open up to her but she wasn't going to push it. It was entirely up to him and it seemed like he decided to talk to her about his past, which made her happy. She liked that he felt like he could trust her enough to do that with.

"How did that happen? Did they have something on you?" She wondered, figuring that was something that made him do it. He couldn't have possibly done it on his own, right? There had to be something or something that was making him to do it. She wanted to believed in the good in him.

Draco laughed bitterly. "My family...we are pureblood. That means we come from a long line of wizards. We thought that was important, you know? Others didn't agree, but this one...this one really powerful wizard did. His methods though..." He glanced down, clearly ashamed of himself. "They were awful. I was a stupid bloody kid thinking he knew everything, but I wasn't ready for that. I didn't want to...to harm others." He wondered where the verbal diatribe came from, but it was too late to take it back. "There was a war. I was on the wrong side of it. Somehow, I didn't end up in prison because...because others saw something better in me. I didn't deserve their kindness."

Tia rested her chin on her knees, her eye focused on him as she listened to him tell her what happened to him at home. Though she didn't have magic or wizards in her world, she got what he meant by his family thinking they were important because of that. It was like someone thinking they were better than others because they were rich, or atleast that was how she was seeing it from her human point of view.

When he was done speaking, she reached out and put a hand on his shoulder. "Everyone deserves a second chance, Draco, no matter what they've done. They gave you yours, even if they don't think they are worthy of it" She told him with a gentle smile. "It may take a while but one day you'll learn to forget yourself for what you've done and you'll come out on the other side feeling better about yourself. I see the good in you just like they did and some day, you will too"

Draco automatically stiffened when she touched him, but then relaxed. He wasn't used to people outside his mother touching him, especially in the last few years. However, Tia's touch wasn't unwelcome. It was comforting. "Thank you" he said with a small smile. It was a lot of pressure trying to live up to the second chance, but he wanted to do it. "But enough about me, really. You are sure you are doing okay with all this?"

When she felt him stiffen up, she quickly pulled her hand away and put it back around her legs again. "I'm sorry" She said soft, an apologetic look on her face. When she touched him, she got flashes of things he didn't tell her, details of what he'd done and been through in the war. After all of that, she wasn't surprised when he stiffened at her touch. When he asked about her, she opened her mouth to try and be optimistic again then she closed it and frowned. "I miss my brother" She confessed as she rested her chin on her knees again.

	Draco shook his head. "You are fine," he assured her. His hang-ups were his to bear; he wouldn't make her feel guilty for that. However, he was glad to get the topic off him. "I bet," he said. "Did you do everything together?" (Reply to this) (Parent)
