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?

Yeah, funny thing that. Being attached to friends is one of those crazy things people do.

You know, you need to talk to your busy bumble bees. Because they're starting to make things up just to give you something salacious.

But that being me to my own questions that's sitting in the back of my mind.

Why do you have people keeping tabs on me? Has Sherlock been complaining about me messing with his book covers again, so you're trying to find something to hold over me?

[watchful_big_brother]

I hardly need to depend on them for information when it's clearly presented when you enter the Great Hall after your little heart-to-heart with your heart still on your sleeve.

[arrogantalloy]

I don't know where you're looking, pal. But it's not at me, the only thing I were on my sleeve are girls.

[watchful_big_brother]

Like Miss Romanoff when she was turned into an adult?

[arrogantalloy]

She doesn't have to be an adult to hang off my arm, both you and she know that.

[He's glad that he's just talking to him through the journals, as he's starting to lose patience with his nosy nature.]

[watchful_big_brother]

What is your excuse in your methods of comforting one Bruce Banner then? By the Library, I believe it was...

[arrogantalloy]

[His handwriting is a little quick here.]

What did you see?

[watchful_big_brother]

I wonder.

[arrogantalloy]

I don't want your suppositions, Holmes. I want what you saw.

[watchful_big_brother]

We rarely get what we want. Enjoyed the feel of his hair in that form?

[arrogantalloy]

For a girl he did have very soft hair. yes.

[watchful_big_brother]

Are you usually so physical with your male friends?

[arrogantalloy]

That was a unique circumstance. It's not like it was any other day and you know it.

[watchful_big_brother]

Yes, of course. Whatever helps you sleep at night.

[arrogantalloy]

I'm starting to realise how much I prefer your brother's company to yours,.

[watchful_big_brother]

People often say that when I hit a nerve... Right up until they realize Sherlock tends to hit the same nerves with a blunt instrument instead.

I'd advise against growing too attracted to Mr. Banner's charms. We both know he is no pet dog and that he could very easily come to bite you some day.

And not in the sexual way at that.

[arrogantalloy]

Yeah, he does. But he doesn't do it on purpose, he does it because not saying things like that is beyond him.

Yeah, you see the thing is. I have advisors, I have a heap of them in fact. The greatest thing about them is that they're on the other side of the planet and don't advise me on who to make friends with.

I know what the wolf is like better than anyone here. And you see the thing is I trust it to be the creature it is, and it knows it. I trust every inch of Banner.

And you better remember that this piece of information gets told to no one. It's kind of a my ears only thing, understand?

[watchful_big_brother]

Hm yes... I see how it is. Interesting. I wonder if you do though...

You have my word, no one will hear of this from me.

[arrogantalloy]

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.

[Filtered]

[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.

[Filtered]

[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.

[watchful_big_brother]

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

[arrogantalloy]

I bet.

[watchful_big_brother]

Good day to you then.

[arrogantalloy]

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