Lost in thought

Rise groaned when he said his estimate on the time. "Two hours.... that would suck." She glanced back at him and sighed, her hand unconsciously moving up to her scar and hiding it from view from him, before she went over to where he was and sat down next to him, staring out at the rain. She glanced at him and watched as he checked his hood for signs of water droppage. Having no hood to hide her head, Rise's head had gotten the most of the water, which wasn't that much, they had been lucky.

When he spoke, Rise let her attention wander back to the rain falling hard just past the section of roof they were under. Without thinking she pulled herself to her feet, and stuck her arm out into the rain, feeling the drops hit it, she pulled it back in and held out her now drenched arm to him. "Well it sure acts like regular water." She said laughing as she flicked her hand at him, the water droplets flying and hitting his arms and face.

She clasped her hands behind her back, and stared out at the rain again, before she glanced over her shoulders, smiling, but it quickly disappeared when she saw his face. He looked... upset? Rise frowned and went and sat next to him again, touching his shoulder lightly. "Is... everything okay? You're acting like you've got something on your mind... do you.. do you need to talk about it?" She asked, unsure of how this worked.. having a friend...

Andrew laughed as she said that that next two hours would suck. "Well I'm always here," he said, a little cockiness in his voice "so the next two hours or two years will never been boring. Trust me. I've killed a dragon." Well Andrew was modest, yet right now not so much. He just had to throw that out into the open. In reality, he had friends who helped put it down. They had killed it for it's hide, which Andrew had kept a portion of as a trophy. And one of it's claws.

Andrew flinched when he felt the small droplets of water splash upon his face, chuckling slightly as she didn't really get his question. "Not what I meant," he smiled, swiping some of the water off his face and throwing it back at her. It might've been a stupid question, but it was a good way to reply to it. "Now why don't you give me a serious answer, might help us 'bond' or some shit like that." He continued to smile brightly, having no idea why. Perhaps it was just the fact that he had pretty much broken a little bit of her shell. Now he had to go a little deeper, see what truly lied ahead. Perhaps maybe stop something bad in the process.

Andrew hadn't really talked about it to anyone, except...well actually on second thought, he talked about it a lot to the people he cared about the most. Namely the people he saw everyone. Christ, he was an open book. "It's nothing really," he said, trying to get her mind off the subject "someone died and I was just remembering that person. No big deal." His brother was probably turning in his grave right now. Wherever he was.

He looked back out towards the rain and thought for a moment. She had opened up to him, so he figured it'd be a good idea to perhaps tell her the truth. He placed the back of his head on the wall and sighed. "My brother," he stated, having some difficulty talking about it "was killed about 2 years ago. Broke out my arch nemesis and the old headmaster of Hogwarts. Some aurors tracked him down and before I knew it, he was dead." What had Danny been thinking? Hadn't he known that it was Ne'Os he was freeing...god.
