SAGE & ROWAN

rowan
he got the dark mark

sage
who did?

rowan
evan
i didn't notice it until today but he must have gotten it over the holiday
and i don't know what to do, sage
he promised he wouldn't

sage
ro, i know it hurts
but you need to relax
take deep breaths
don't let yourself spiral

rowan
i'm trying
it feels like my chest is collapsing in on itself

sage
have you talked to him since you saw it?

rowan
yeah
he's acting like everything's normal
as if he didn't just align himself with someone who wants me dead
god fucking damn it sage
i hate him

sage
talk to him
people like rosier, and like regulus, aren't in it for the blood purity reasons
they're in it for protection or because their families forced them into it
like do you think evan and reg hate your existence? one is your boyfriend and the other is one of our very best friends
i am in no way excusing his beliefs or the fact that evan didn't tell you
but talk to him before you jump to conclusions

rowan
you said people like evan and reggie
but what about bella?

sage
her motives are hard to understand
frankly, she wants power
power that andromeda and cissy didn't want
so i don't know

rowan
thank you for listening

sage
anytime, ro

RO & EVAN

ro
oi, where are you?

evan
in the common room with reg
why?

ro
no reason
just wanted to talk

evan
everything alright babe?

ro
yeah totally
if you're busy with regulus, do you mind if i ask you something really quick?

evan
sure
what's up?

ro
why didn't you tell me you got the dark mark?

evan
oh
you saw that

ro
i did
and i just want to know why
i mean, you've got a muggleborn girlfriend and you pledge your alliegance to voldemort?
i just don't get it

evan
rowan, love
you think i'd ever do anything that would put you in danger?

ro
well it feels like you didn't consider how this would make me feel

evan
i got the dark mark because my parents pushed me to do it
i got it so i could protect you, ro
no one can touch you when you're with me
i didn't want it, and you know i don't believe in what they believe in

ro
you got it for me?
what kind of backwards logic is that, evan?
it's not a tattoo, idiot

evan
you don't understand
and you won't understand for a while
but i can't explain it to you until we're out of school

ro
this is bullshit
i'm not going to try to understand
we're done
go find a death eater girl to date


1) ro is single!
2)can't stop playing drivers license by olivia rodrigo. it's so good
