i am cruel, i am gentle, i can make you laugh.

[Draco — @LegacyofaSnake]

Fancy dinner tonight sounds like too much effort when everyone in society is going out.

[Draco — @LegacyofaSnake]

Focuses on breathing until whatever concoction he’s imbibed kicks in - in and out. Just like normal.

Eyes drifting closed to try and chase the buzzing lightheadedness floating just out of reach.]

[Draco — @LegacyofaSnake]

A few /months/?!

[Ridiculous amount of time to get used to something but…maybe not. How long did it take him to learn to ride a broom naturally or brew a potion? More than a couple months that’s for sure. -

[𓂃 ٭ 𝓭𝙰𝙽𝚃𝙴 𝓬𝙰𝚁𝚁𝙾𝚆. @WENDlGOBOY]

{ he doesn't bother trying to keep the edge of derision out of his huffed laugh. }

a few months. just give it a second to kick in. you'll get it.

[Draco — @LegacyofaSnake]

How often do you have to sit here and inhale this grass mixture until you get used to it?

[Thin edge of a whine to his question that he would stalwart my deny under question. Sucks in a breath as the joint touches his lips again, focusing on not coughing up a lung.]

[𓂃 ٭ 𝓭𝙰𝙽𝚃𝙴 𝓬𝙰𝚁𝚁𝙾𝚆. @WENDlGOBOY]

{ can't help the amused little smirk. }

you get used to it. and it's nice after a while. feels good.

{ he lifts a hand to press draco's hand lightly, back toward his mouth. }

go on.

[Draco — @LegacyofaSnake]

Is smoking supposed to make you light-headed?

[blanc @dqveed]

i don't get how alcohol turns y'all evil. i just start giggling and get slutty.

[Draco — @LegacyofaSnake]

[Holding the joint a good six inches away from his face as he coughs, trying not to accidentally inhale any of the substance again.]

Burns going down. Why — has no one mentioned that?

[𓂃 ٭ 𝓭𝙰𝙽𝚃𝙴 𝓬𝙰𝚁𝚁𝙾𝚆. @WENDlGOBOY]

{ he really tries not to, but it's impossible not to choke out a laugh. }

have you /ever/ smoked before .ᐣ even once .ᐣ

[Unhinged AO3 tags🪦🕊️ @unhingedA03]

my enemy is seducing me and im into it

[Draco — @LegacyofaSnake]

Right, of course, how could I have forgotten.

[Drawls airily, a small eye roll to accompany his words. Picks the joint from between Dante's fingers, holding it as carefully as a temperamental, bubbling potion.

Pinches it between his lips, drawing in a stiff inhale.]

[𓂃 ٭ 𝓭𝙰𝙽𝚃𝙴 𝓬𝙰𝚁𝚁𝙾𝚆. @WENDlGOBOY]

{ watches in silence as he sits, then turns his gaze away with a soft huff. }

and smoke, { he corrects, though with only a little vitriol.

another drag is taken, then, after a brief pause, he tilts it toward him in silent offering. }

[Draco — @LegacyofaSnake]

[Instinctively freezes, tongue glued to the bottom of his mouth even as he can't help but taste gritty earth and smoke on Dante's hand.

Should bite. Means to, he really does, but in a fight or flight he's always leaned toward staying in place.]

[𓂃 ٭ 𝓭𝙰𝙽𝚃𝙴 𝓬𝙰𝚁𝚁𝙾𝚆. @WENDlGOBOY]

{ . . . okay.

shoves the side of his hand into draco's mouth. clearly biting isn't the /only/ possible reaction, but it seems a likely one. }

[Draco — @LegacyofaSnake]

Make me.

[𓂃 ٭ 𝓭𝙰𝙽𝚃𝙴 𝓬𝙰𝚁𝚁𝙾𝚆. @WENDlGOBOY]

bite me.

[Draco — @LegacyofaSnake]

[Without speaking a word, Draco sinks to the ground next to him. Idly brushing dirt off his pants as he does - not that it will make a difference in the long run after sitting here even a moment.]

So you just sit back here.

[𓂃 ٭ 𝓭𝙰𝙽𝚃𝙴 𝓬𝙰𝚁𝚁𝙾𝚆. @WENDlGOBOY]

{ narrowed gaze slants toward him as soon as the pointed blonde appears, exhaling a huffed cloud of smoke. what, is he /stalking/ him or something .ᐣ }

[Draco — @LegacyofaSnake]

No. What, a man can’t partially apologize these days without scrutiny?

[Clemches his jaw, darting gaze slipping to the side so he doesn’t have to look at Ron directly. Easier.]

[𓂃 ٭ 𝓻𝙾𝙽 𝔀𝙴𝙰𝚂𝙻𝙴𝚈. @weaslcyisourkng]

never expected one to begin with.

{ still doesn't believe him, really, gazing at him with a squinted sort of look. just . . . weird. }

you dying or something .ᐣ

[Draco — @LegacyofaSnake]

Right. Well don’t expect another in the future.

[𓂃 ٭ 𝓻𝙾𝙽 𝔀𝙴𝙰𝚂𝙻𝙴𝚈. @weaslcyisourkng]

it was a shit apology, but coming from you, i guess it means something.

[Draco — @LegacyofaSnake]

Oh good. Easy enough to find, just follow the smell and there he is in all his glory.

[𓂃 ٭ 𝓭𝙰𝙽𝚃𝙴 𝓬𝙰𝚁𝚁𝙾𝚆. @WENDlGOBOY]

he's taken his /stench/ behind the greenhouses.

[Draco — @LegacyofaSnake]

I am usually right, yes.

[𓂃 ٭ 𝓻𝙾𝙽 𝔀𝙴𝙰𝚂𝙻𝙴𝚈. @weaslcyisourkng]

yeah, just like that. nailed it.

[Draco — @LegacyofaSnake]

— stop making that face.

[𓂃 ٭ 𝓭𝙰𝙽𝚃𝙴 𝓬𝙰𝚁𝚁𝙾𝚆. @WENDlGOBOY]

. . . . . . . . . . 🫩

[Draco — @LegacyofaSnake]

I’m not going to say it again. Tastes rotten.

[𓂃 ٭ 𝓻𝙾𝙽 𝔀𝙴𝙰𝚂𝙻𝙴𝚈. @weaslcyisourkng]

🙄🙄🙄

[Draco — @LegacyofaSnake]

Finally, a moment of quiet.
