IC Prospective | Mycroft 7th year

[watchful_big_brother]

Character: Mycroft Holmes (BBC 'Sherlock')
Mun: Gowa
Plot specific: Not really, just trying out Mycroft as year head boy or prefect?

While I understand that as a student one cannot simply ignore the opportunities to cause chaos when presented with such a situation, I strongly encourage everyone to please do as they are told and avoid stealing into the Forbidden Forest. Things could get... messy.

This friendly suggestion goes double for you, brother. We wouldn't want to upset Mummy with an Owl about how you managed to get yourself spirited away by some over-eager Centaurs, now would we?

Well, you'll be happy to note I have no intention of doing any such thing.

He's the only one who's stuck by me the whole time he's known me. If you don't count me, there are only two people in this world I trust as much as I trust myself. And he's one of them.

And I do mean what Bruce has become. Not just this little juicy bit of conversation.

[watchful_big_brother]

How fortunate for us to have such a law-abiding student among us then.

[watchful_big_brother]

Certainly. You've displayed a great trust in Mr. Banner and a certain sense of attachment...

I'm simply persuading you against developing this relationship further. Given your personalities, I cannot see it ending well, and neither of you are a force I want seen unleashed on the student body when upset.

[3potionproblem]

I remember I'm a better shot than you.

[arrogantalloy]

Then isn't it a great thing that we go to great lengths to make sure we're never unleashed?

I'm sure it would be in everyone's best interests then to make sure it stayes that way.

Do you remember how when you chased the first buck you saw after successfully tracking it, you never saw it again that day? No matter how good a shot you are, once you've startled your prey, there's a high possibility you won't hit it.

Keep that in mind.

You know, for most people, the less they know about anything to do with their siblings' hind ends the better.

And fine. If you're so keen on knowing, I'll tell you why I think Sherlock is changing, even if it's just in small, insignificant ways. It's because he's interested in hanging around me at all.

[watchful_big_brother]

Splendid. I'm glad we had this little 'chat'.

[watchful_big_brother]

Good, good. I'm glad he made your acquaintance - a little humanity will be good for him.

[3potionproblem]

Right. Stay out of the Forbidden Forest and don't kiss people out of the blue.

[ihaveanappforthat]

You know I'm ever-so law-abiding.

So how have you been?

[Filter.]

[watchful_big_brother]

Something along those lines, yes.

[Filter.]

[3potionproblem]

I'm thinking I don't want to talk to you again until after Christmas. Agreed?

[watchful_big_brother]

As well as can be. Yourself?

[Filter.]

[watchful_big_brother]

Stay out of trouble and I'll consider it.

[Filtered]

[arrogantalloy]

I bet.

[Filter.]

[3potionproblem]

You make me want it. So leave me alone if I can't have some. I'm done talking to you for the rest of this year.

[Filter.]

[watchful_big_brother]

Very well, I bid you adieu.

[Filtered]

[watchful_big_brother]

Good day to you then.

[ihaveanappforthat]

I've been entertained. Could be better though.

[watchful_big_brother]

I can imagine.

[3houseswatson]

If you think he only counts as a human being because there's no reason someone truly obsessed with novelty and brilliance would bother hanging around me, then you really are one of the worst siblings I've ever known. And mine's been dead to the world drunk the last 3 times I've seen her.

He's always been human, Mycroft.

[arrogantalloy]

I'm sure I'll see you 'round.

[watchful_big_brother]

You're muggleborn, yes? Tell me, have you seen many of those 'movies' about men made out of metal, those 'robots'? I've watched my brother attempt to turn himself into such a thing in terms of ridding himself completely of emotional vulnerability.

He might always have been an organic human being but he was growing a bit too detached with life.
