*blinks* Uhm... One... no wand... two... why...?

[She blinks and smirks faintly.] I just wanted to see if you would do it. [Her wand is quickly put away.] Sorry about that. Can't be too careful these days.

Well I'm glad I was smart enough to ask first then. That might have been awkward.

What's there to be careful of?

No kidding. But the point was to catch an enemy off-guard. [And pants-less. Because that's funny.]

Oh nothing. [Just a war. People dying. Explosions. You know, the usual stuff.] Don't stay out too late, alright?

By what... pantsing them? *raises a brow* That's certainly an interesting tactic...

It's never nothing. *He was no stranger to that sort of havoc - of course, he lived through the apocalypse, so... yeah*

*chuckles* Yeah... right... don't stay out too late... Ma'am... let me let you in on something. *opens one side of his lips and turns his head a bit, showing one of his fangs and pointing at it* I'm kinda nocturnal. Sun's not good for me. As in it causes a horrible fiery death that drags on for about half an hour. Sun? No bueno. Unless I have SPF 10,000 or something.

So what is it you're worried about?

...yes. [She manages to look serious. For five seconds.] Actually, I just wanted to see their reaction. I really don't like dueling. [But she's good at it.]

Hm good point. [But if he's a Muggle...

With fangs.

Oh.] You're a vampire. [A little warier now, yet she feels better about telling him the truth, at least.]

Dark Wizards taking over the world.

*smiles* I don't imagine a sane person would enjoy any sort of duel; at least not if they're actually in danger of anything.

Well... scientifically speaking, yes. I'm not mythical though. No turning into a bat, or a wolf, or mist, or any other such thing. My kind are the result of rapid evolution brought on by exposure to nuclear radiation in fallout.

*blink* Dark Wizards... taking over the world... *sigh* Oh, life just gets better and better. First a nuclear holocaust now- *pause* Wait... *thinks for a moment* No, no... I suppose this would be happening before the nukes. Those bombs don't go off for a few years still. *shakes head to clear the thoughts*

Okay... so Dark Wizards... any particular reason they're trying for world conquest, or same basic B.S. from the last couple centuries?

I know a few who don't mind being in the thick of it. [Though, even they are getting sick of fighting.]

I didn't think you did. [But...radiation?] You're not going to sprout an extra head or something, right?

... [More to look forward to?] Er...you're full of good news. [ :/ ]

They think Pureblooded Wizards and Witches are better than everyone else. I think it's bollocks and I happen to be a Pureblood myself.

Well, there's "don't mind" and there's "enjoyment".

*chuckles* No, no, nothing like that - though insects get... well... bigger. *hello understatement*

Wish I had some actual good news for you. *pause* If it's any consolation at least it means the badguys don't win... right?

Ah... so basically the magical version of Nazis?

I think you'd have to be pretty deluded if you enjoyed it. [There are those too, unfortunately.]

...yuck. [They're big enough as it is!] Arthur would love to hear about that.

It sounds like no one wins. [Which emphasizes her goal to live in the now and not think about the future.]

That's a good comparison. You Know Who is definitely a dictator.

Exactly my point.

Likes bugs, I take it?

It's a vicious cycle unfortunately. War begets war, hate begets hate, strife begets strife, and in the end... nothing really changes. Or... that's what you would think. I think this is a new chance for humanity. A chance to start again and build up the way that we should have in the first place. Of course, perhaps I'm just a bit too forward thinking... but I'm a leader; I suppose it's my job.

*headtilt* Uhm... I would likely agree with you, but... I don't know who "You Know Who" is...

No, but he's interested in anything Muggle. Radioactive bugs would probably catch his attention. [And her's as she beat them to death.]

I hate to say it, but... Leaders don't have to be optimistic. They should be realistic and the idea of people dying and civilization changing for good doesn't set well with me. [It kind of sounds like Voldemort's logic. Maybe the world doesn't need to be changed. Maybe it's fine as it is. Sure, there are problems, but obliterating everything and starting from scratch is damn reckless.]

Lord Voldemort. [She says the name in a hushed tone.]

Ah. *nods, then stops, caught on the word* Muggle?

Well, when nobody else is being optimistic, someone has to be. If there's no hope, people lose the will to fight. *blinks* Oh, please, don't think that I mean the world is better for this. I simply mean that now that it has happened, we can at least make the best of a bad situation, and do things right. If I could put things back to how they were before the bombs, I would. *quietly* I want my family and friends back, believe me, I do... but that's not about to happen.

You say the name like he's the boogeyman under your bed.
