"Strap On When It Seems Appropriate"

Comments

[str1fe.livejournal.com]

That sounds kinky.

[ladyemmacrouch.livejournal.com]

*laughs* I wish. No, it's about strapping on your weapon and getting ready for battle. A Muggle writer named Stephen King wrote it in a book I read. Shortened it to SOWISA, but kept re-explaining it. It fits, however.

[str1fe.livejournal.com]

Oh. I see!

So you have your weapon and are ready for battle?

[ladyemmacrouch.livejournal.com]

Indeed I do, and I am. Wand at the ready.

[str1fe.livejournal.com]

*reminisces*

Know your enemy?

[ladyemmacrouch.livejournal.com]

barely, but enough not to trust her. Enough to know what she's capable of.

I hope it's enough.

[str1fe.livejournal.com]

Learn all you can!

[ladyemmacrouch.livejournal.com]

I don't have time... She's hurt my family enough.

[str1fe.livejournal.com]

Just saying...

Before a battle? Its good to know all you can about what you are going up against so you can form a good strategy. Skill is good, but having a strategy sometimes saves a lot of...ummm---grief.

[ladyemmacrouch.livejournal.com]

I'm sure it does. I know a great deal about her, and I certainly understand her character. I'm not even sure I'm that skilled, but I am pissed off enough to kill her. *raises her eyebrows a little. She's not kidding*

[str1fe.livejournal.com]

Rage is a good motivator. That's what my Uncle says.

[ladyemmacrouch.livejournal.com]

I'm hoping it's enough.

[goldenkid.livejournal.com]

Strap what on? How do you know if its appropriate?

[ladyemmacrouch.livejournal.com]

The weapons of war. And it's appropriate whenever you feel the need to fight.

In my case, the appropriate time is now.

[goldenkid.livejournal.com]

*very VERY nervous*

Are you in a war? Are you a solider? Are you the good guy or the bad guy? And yes, in these situations girls count as guys. You're a girl right?

[ladyemmacrouch.livejournal.com]

*softly, kneeling down a little so she's on level with him*

It's not a real war. Just a family one. And I'm one of the good guys. *smiles softly* Yeah, I'm a girl. My name's Emma.

[goldenkid.livejournal.com]

*smiles a little, he's been in family wars and thinks that they are VERY real wars*

You're a very beautiful girl. *hugs her tightly all of a sudden* I really hope you don't get hurt, Emma.

I'm a boy. My name's William. Everybody calls me Billy.

[ladyemmacrouch.livejournal.com]

Why thank you. *surprised, but she LOVES hugs, so she hugs him back just as tight* I won't, there's lots of people to help me, and lots of protections around me.

*ruffles his hair a little* It's good to meet you, Billy. I like meeting new people.

[goldenkid.livejournal.com]

*smiles a tiny bit*

I have to tell yo a secret. *whispers* Sometimes family can be REALLY scary. Don't get fooled.

I like meeting new people too. What kind of stuff do you like? I like cowboys, and Cool Hand Luke, and David Bowie, and baseball and my mom and my bears...

[ladyemmacrouch.livejournal.com]

*listens intently* I'll keep that in mind, Billy. Thank you.

I like all kinds of things. Brooms and Quidditch and my brothers and my Mum and Daddy and Uncle Evan and his family... And I LOVE David Bowie. *grins at him*

[goldenkid.livejournal.com]

*nods* Good.


*giggles*
Cool! Quidditch? *gasps* Are you a witch? I know some of them! I'm not a wizard though. I sort of wish I was one, because they are so much cooler than I.

David Bowie rocks! *grins* My dad's got his CDs and a video! He wears pretty makeup!

[ladyemmacrouch.livejournal.com]

*smiles*

I am a witch, yes. I know lots of witches and wizards. And can I tell you a BIG HUGE GIGANTIC secret? *whispers* You seem pretty cool to me, Billy. I don't know many people who are as cool as you.

He really does. I heard some of his music when I went to visit a friend over the summer of my fifth year. And his makeup is amazing. Much better than mine, even. *giggles*

[goldenkid.livejournal.com]

*smiles*

Cool! My friend Damien is a wizard. And Lily is a witch. And you too!
*blushes* Really? Even though I'm just a lousy muggle? You seem cool to me too.

*giggles*
I don't wear makeup, but if I did I'd want it to be like his!

[courierx.livejournal.com]

So many possible bad jokes, so little time.

[ladyemmacrouch.livejournal.com]

*laughs* It's a quote from Stephen King. It's also my current life theme.

[courierx.livejournal.com]

Oh, I figured as much, but the double entendre is too much to resist, you know?

[ladyemmacrouch.livejournal.com]

I know. It'd be even funnier if I was a lesbian. *winks*

[courierx.livejournal.com]

*grins and winks back* Or simply wore more leather.

[ladyemmacrouch.livejournal.com]

I think that may scare my boyfriend. *laughs more*

[courierx.livejournal.com]

It just might. Some have no appreciation of a woman in leather... with... bulges.

*coughs and goes red*

[ladyemmacrouch.livejournal.com]

*tilts head* Bulges? And I wear leather occasionally. I rather like it and if his reaction is anything to go by, he approves as well.

*amused look* Something you care to share with the class?

Locked.

[courierx.livejournal.com]

Ah, a certain variety of woman, who has a partner willing, sometimes will wear a leather outfit, and have a bulge similar to a man's. A strap-on bulge, so to speak.

Re: Locked.

[ladyemmacrouch.livejournal.com]

*smiles* Oh. And you appreciate that kind of thing? Or were you just waxing poetic?

Re: Locked.

[courierx.livejournal.com]

I do. Traveling far and finding care in many places has widened my horizons far beyond what I might have thought before.

The right partner, at the right time, makes a lot appreciable.

[bornto-kill.livejournal.com]

Em? I'm ready to help fight too *strokes his wand in his pocket*

Let's teach this bitch a lesson.

[ladyemmacrouch.livejournal.com]

I know you are. You and Daddy are gonna be at the Leaky, right? *bites her bottom lip a little nervously*

[bornto-kill.livejournal.com]

Yeah we are.

When are you going to strike? Give us the word and we'll come as soon as we can.

[ladyemmacrouch.livejournal.com]

Good.

We'll strike as soon as we find her. You all are there in case something happens and she comes after Mum. I'll send out my patronus if something goes wrong, and if you see it, I expect you to go to Mum's side immediately. Even if she doesn't understand why. Even if she gets angry. Okay?

Patronus shows up, you go to Mum's room. Got it?

[bornto-kill.livejournal.com]

Got it. I'll tell dad this information too. He's bound to protect mum with his life as will I.

Will go down fighting..that's the Crouch way.

[ladyemmacrouch.livejournal.com]

*nods* I know, Barty. That's why the two of you are stationed at the Leaky. Because I know you'll fight to the death. And Daddy's got a score to settle with Grandmother anyway.

The goal is that none of us goes down. But should something happen... *goes and hugs him tight* I love you, Barty. The Gods willing, I'll see you tonight, unharmed and victorious.

[bornto-kill.livejournal.com]

Yes. Dad will flay that old bag for her life.

The goal is set and I can feel victory coming this way, Em. I wasn't suppose to become a Death Eater but I feel fire in my veins..like I want to go out and torture her. Like I want to kill. Maybe I'm feeling dad's old ways in me, who knows.

I love you too, Em *hugs and ruffles hair* We'll be ok..just trust yourself.
