oli_keeper_wood: Hi Penny... it's Oliver Wood here. lucidh2o: Hi, Oliver. oli_keeper_wood: Er - I just wanted to say thanks. For looking after me last week. lucidh2o: You're welcome -- I'm glad everything turned out all right. oli_keeper_wood: Me too. And - er- can I ask a question? oli_keeper_wood: Um - is Marcus happy? lucidh2o: I haven't talked to Marcus in a few days. oli_keeper_wood: Oh. Oh, okay. lucidh2o: I would suspect so, though. oli_keeper_wood: Right. Well. That's, er. That's good. lucidh2o: Yeah. oli_keeper_wood: You still hate me, don't you? lucidh2o: Not hate... I mean, we've never really done anything but be snarky. oli_keeper_wood: But, I mean. At school, you certainly despised me. lucidh2o: Well, yes, at school, I'll admit to that. lucidh2o: Things change, you know? oli_keeper_wood: So now, you're okay with me? lucidh2o: Yeah, I'm okay. lucidh2o: You? oli_keeper_wood: Er - yeah. I only ever disliked you because you were with Perce and I wasn't. lucidh2o: I guess I knew that...inside, somewhere... oli_keeper_wood: You didn't know that was why? lucidh2o: *shrugs* Not really know. Just, sort of a feeling. oli_keeper_wood: Oh. I thought everyone knew how I felt about Percy. lucidh2o: Ravenclaw I may be, but perception was never my strong point. oli_keeper_wood: Oh. Oh. Okay. So why didn't you like me, then? lucidh2o: I thought if you didn't like me, no use in liking you back. lucidh2o: Bad excuse, I guess, but, truth enough. :-\ oli_keeper_wood: Oh. Well, yeah, I guess so. lucidh2o: That felt good to get that off my chest. oli_keeper_wood: Yeah, actually. I'm sorry for being petty, you know. lucidh2o: Yeah, me too... it seems so stupid, looking back. oli_keeper_wood: I mean. I know why I did it. If it happened again I don't think my opinion of you would be any different. But it still wasn't fair. lucidh2o: Yeah, agreed. oli_keeper_wood: Did you love him? lucidh2o: Yeah, I did. oli_keeper_wood: He's wonderful, isn't he? lucidh2o: Yeah, he's a good guy. :) oli_keeper_wood: He's more than just a good guy. lucidh2o: Well, in short. oli_keeper_wood: That's not what I'd say in short, I don't think. lucidh2o: All right. oli_keeper_wood: So, um. Adrian and Marcus, eh. lucidh2o: Adrian and Marcus... oli_keeper_wood: ... are together now, you know that right? lucidh2o: Yeah. I was talking to Terence last night. oli_keeper_wood: Yeah. lucidh2o: He was in a bad way. oli_keeper_wood: Yeah, I know- I wish I could talk to him. lucidh2o: Terence is just.... when he's like he is now, he's practically unreachable. oli_keeper_wood: I feel like I hardly know him. lucidh2o: Yeah. oli_keeper_wood: You're a good friend to them all, you know. lucidh2o: I try to be, thanks.
