Harry Potter Next Gen

He shrugged and thought for a moment. "What's your take on former Deatheaters?" he asked. "And I'll go ahead and toss in a second question at the same time, Do you think he's gone for good?"

Sienna paused, looking away. "I... I'm not sure. Most of the former Death Eaters were horrible people... but, I heard that some truly did have no choice, and actually did not actually commit horrible acts... I had heard that of your father, for example. As for whether I think he is gone... I think he is, yes... but I am worried about someone following in his footsteps. There are still plenty of people who agreed with his ideals. If anyone like him gains power again, well, then people like me are as good as dead. Unless another Harry Potter miraculously shows up, or someone stops them before they get power."

"Do you think it's right for someone to die to save others?" he asked.

Sienna frowned. "No... but it still happens. When someone sacrifices themselves to save others, they are a hero, but... if there is another, better option, then no."

"Whisstle blowers then." he suggested. "People who speak up and put themselves in danger. Are they wrong to do it?"

Sienna shook her head. "If it saves the lives of others, and puts away those who would harm them, then it's not wrong. And they should be protected for their bravery in doing such a thing. Doing what you can to stop something that shouldn't happen, to protect people, is never wrong. In my opinion. That was question ten, by the way."

"Hm..." He thought for a moment, leaning back in his seat. "Do you think unforgivable curses are really unforgivable-- Even if they're used for good?"

Sienna shook her head, sighing. "If the killing curse is used to stop a killer, is it really unforgivable? If the Imperious curse is used to get information to save lives, or something to that effect, is it unforgivable? The only curse I don't see having a truly good use, is the Cruciatus curse."

"How long do you think you should know someone before telling them something very personal?" he asked.

Sienna actually had no hesitation on that. "There's no real answer to that. Some people, it takes longer to trust them than others. Some, it takes less time. I think it comes down to when you, personally, feel that it's okay. Whether it takes minutes, days, weeks, or even years."

"Fair enough. Whats your favorite color, food, and literary genre?" he asked grinning. "Three questions."

Sienna laughed a bit at that before answering. "Green, any kind of pasta, and adventure. With a bit of romance in it. And that was question fifteen. Five left."

"Only five? Damn." he joked. "Hm.... Alright then. Another two at once then. Is the internet really made by spiders? And why does it seem to lure in Cats and Trolls over anything else?"

Sienna, for a moment, just stared. Then, she bit her lip, starting to shake slightly as she tried very hard not to laugh. "N-no... um... the internet is not made by spiders... it's like a Floo network, but for information, pictures, stuff like that... and um... the 'cats' are pictures of them, with words that make the pictures funny, and 'internet trolls' are people who um... intentionally cause arguments and annoy people..."

Scorpious blinked. "Oh..." He said, confused a bit by her reaction to his question. It had been a perfectly reasonable one in his opinion.

"Seems odd." he frowned slightly. "Well.... Hm." he thought. "What are your plans for the Hogsmeade trip this weekend?"

Sienna forced herself to relax and calm down, but still was trying not to giggle a bit. "Um, well, I only sometimes go. When I do, I just relax at the Three Broomsticks, maybe stop by Honeydukes, or just walk around a bit. Otherwise, I just stay at the castle. Depends on my mood."

"This weekend then, would you come with me?" he invited, sitting back to eye her. He had one last question to ask her.

He did his best to hold back his curiosity as he waited for an answer to his invitation, really, he did. But he ended up asking his last question before she could.

"And why didn't you ask me outright what the invitation I received was referring to?"

He'd found it odd that she hadn't asked.

Sienna just smiled softly. "I didn't want to push. The actual details of what the invitation was about, I feel that you should tell me that when you feel you can trust me with it, instead of answering due to the rules of a game. As for the invitation to go with you this weekend... I'd like that."

He smiled at both answers. "... So you know, it's a silly invitation to pretty much a wizard version of a Yot-club." he said. "My grandfather wants me to join, but like I mentioned, I'm turning down the offer."

He took his wand out form behind his ear and tapped his ash tray, clearing the mess away before setting it down on the side table beside the armchair he had seated himself in.

"Wait... your grandfather? Do you mean your mothers father or... your father's?" The mere mention of Lucius Malfoy made her shudder. That man, in her opinion, was evil. She was just glad that it seemed that Draco and Scorpius Malfoy were good people, even if they might not always act like it.

"Both actually..." he thought for a moment. "But the invitation was more than likely written by my paternal grandfather."

Sienna visibly flinched. "No wonder you don't want to go. Scorpy, your grandfather terrifies me, to be honest. I'm pretty sure he terrifies anyone who isn't a pureblood..."

Scorpious smiled, honestly not seeming too bothered. "He used to scare me too." he admitted. "But I've figured out a way to knock a bit of sense into him should he ever try anything stupid. I think old age's mellowed him out quite a bit though."

"Well, that's good I guess..." She paused. "...Though... you being interested in me... won't that make him really, really mad?"

"Mm." Scorpious scowled slightly. "He's been upset before. He doesn't rule me, contrary to popular opinion. I'm my own person fully capable of making my own decisions."
