paradisalost | Entrée de Journal Deux: Living Arrangements.

After my rather abrupt entrance the other day and a few attempts at trying to return; it would appear that I am stuck here, so I suppose proper introductions are in order.

My name is Malfoy, Draco Malfoy, a surname I hope will be familiar to at least a few of you, pureblood wizard, from a long line of purebloods and no doubt wealthier than you could hope to be.

I did study at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, initially with Albus Dumbledore as headmaster and then Professor Snape my old head of house.

[Soft frown and a quiet pause for a moment before changing tack]

Anyway I have been told I live next door to an angel and that there's a demon on the other side of him, I've not actually met either of them but am I the only one that finds this a little bit disconcerting?

I'm not going to have the fires of hell suddenly lick up my bedroom door whilst some celestial battle goes on, am I? Whose bright idea was it to put those particular forms of life together?

Oh Joy...and apparently a demon hunter further down the hall from them...

Yes this will go well.

[sighs huffily and walks with the journal in his hand]

And guess who else the castle has deemed fit for sticking me on the same hall as...

[Insert girlish shriek before a yell issues out]

Bloody hell Longbottom! Your toad in my sodding loo!

Most people here are on a sort of truce, and a lot of the demons and angels are quite friendly.

Well so far I've only seemed to have been accosted by demons who appear to get upset when I mention the war and that they may be a little antagonistic, which considering they were there, they should already know about.

Well, not every world had a war like that. And nobody's accosting you yet, it's just annoying when people assume they know everything about a person like that~ Give them a chance, you know?

But you're a human, right? I mean, last I checked everyone who went to Hogwarts was an actual person.

I didn't say I know them, I said it was disconcerting, which frankly it is, or am I not permitted to state my opinion?

Yes I'm human, well wizard there is a distinction. But I'm human yes.

Well, by assuming that they'll get into a fight and catch you up in it? Kind of says they don't have much decency or consideration for other people. It's fine to state your opinion, just don't be surprised if people get annoyed with it~

Right. Well, if you're a wizard you should know how to defend yourself, so it's not that big of a deal.

Well seeing as those who are insulted by it are not those same beings that I apparently insulted.

I hardly think this requires retalliation anyway, aren't demons supposed to have thicker skins than this? Or else surely you must be insulted by people all the time.

Well, maybe they have friends who are? My boyfriend is a half-devil, I doubt he'd appreciate being generalized like that.

... I was talking about keeping yourself safe in general, actually, but my mistake for being concerned.

We;re survivors...I'll manage.

... Survivors?

Yes from the verb to survive.

[a huff] Well, I got that, I meant was there some sort of big, traumatic event you had to survive through?

...

I hardly think that's any of your business, do you?

You brought it up, it's only natural for people to be curious. If you don't want to talk about it, that's fine, too~

Well I don't

Then don't. Sheesh.

IS sheesh even a word?

Does it matter?

Well you do seem to be using it in conversation.

If you know what it means, then why does it matter if it's a word or not?

Because its ridiculous, it doesn't even mean anything. Besides I always htought the word was Jeez or are you not able to say that due to your origins?

It does mean something. It's much faster to say "sheesh" than "I'm extremely exasperated right now!"

Both of them work, I guess. It doesn't really matter what my origins are, since the castle makes everyone speak the same language.
