Are you always this direct when getting to know people?

1. Boy
2. I don't really have a favorite color.
3. Sixteen
4. Defense Against the Dark Arts
5. Divination, but that might be because of Professor Trelawney's poor teaching ability.
6. I want to be happy. If you're asking about the career I'd like to have, then the answer is Auror.
7. You don't need to know any of my secrets.

Do you want to know my name?

[ritaskeeter]

Direct, sometimes, but I don't usually hand them a questionnaire if that's what you mean. I just thought it'd be fun, since we don't know anything about each other! I don't even know what you look like. Are you attrac Ooh!

Eye Colour:
Hair Colour:
Height:
Describe your appearance in a few words:

- Blue
- Blonde
- 5'8"
- Skinny, Light freckles, Gorgeous (;

Your turn :P

What's so bad about secrets? Come on, this is a real opportunity here, talking to a mysterious stranger, being able to say whatever we want! Don't you think that's exciting? I could make a million confessions and it wouldn't matter. I'll tell you another secret if you want. A better one! Let's seeee... oh! I kinda have a crush on this guy. Maybe. But he doesn't have a clue. Your turn?

I think it's funner if we don't know who each other are! See above paragraph (;

xoxo

[Ian Fleming]

Hmm. Why did you choose a questionnaire this time?

I have green eyes, brown hair, and I'm 6'1", I think. One of my best friends called me a teddy bear with a six pack.

I don't have anything against secrets unless they're hurting someone. I don't usually feel that I can't say what I want, so I guess I'm not as excited as you are about being able to confess things. I just don't trust you enough to tell you any of my secrets unless you need to know them. I don't want to tell you a secret, but I'll tell you something you probably don't know about me. I can see thestrals.

You maybe have a crush on this guy?

[ritaskeeter]

Oh, just figured it was direct! Plus, now I can try and imagine what you look like, and therefore who you might be. Hmm hmm hmmm. You sound cute, by the way, mister anonymous.

But what if it's good for the secret to come out, even if it does hurt someone? What if it's important information that someone else deserves to know, or would be hurt if they didn't know, hmm? Isn't it usually a bit more complicated than that? I get the trust thing though, I mean I'm not exactly gonna tell you my deepest, darkest secrets, so medium secrets is fine by me. That's... wow, though, wow. Sorry, for whoever whatever it was. What do they look like?

Yeah. Like... He's cute and really interesting, and we've even kissed, but once was for a stupid dare and once was a pity kiss, I think, and I was drunk, so I don't know if it counts. But he's also so not the type of guy I usually go for/date/whatever, and the last time I fell for a guy that was so not my usual type didn't exactly end well, you could say. And oh gosh, look at me babbling away to you like you're a guidance counselor, or dating advice columnist! Ha! There's definitely something freeing about the whole you-don't-know-who-I-am-and-I-don't-know-who-you-are thing, I haven't been telling anyone I do know all this stuff. But what about you and your love life, mister anonymous? I give pretty good advice, trust me ;)

xoxo

[Ian Fleming]

Hmm. You'd rather figure out who I am than have me just tell you. I sound cute?

If someone needed to hear one of my secrets, I'd be willing to tell it, even if it hurt that person. You don't have to be sorry for my loss, but thank you. Thestrals look like reptilian horses with bat wings. They're very bony.

Does he know how you feel?

Maybe we don't know each other's identities, but we are getting to know each other. Do you feel limited in how much of yourself you can share with people?

My ex-girlfriend and I broke up recently, but we're still good friends. She had feelings for someone else, and I'm starting to like someone else too.

[ritaskeeter]

Exactly! Don't you think that sounds so much more fun? And yes, you do sound cute. With the green eyes and all that ;)

That's good, I suppose. Are you a Gryffindor? You sound all... righteous, if that makes any sense? And Gryffindors usually are. Wow, they do sound creepy, that sucks.

I just said I maybe like him, so no, of course he doesn't. Or at least, I haven't said anything, I don't know what he thinks.

We are, aren't we?! I think that's so sweet. And neat. I wouldn't say I feel limited, not really, I just usually don't. I guess in my experience I've just always found you regret telling people your own secrets, you know? Have you ever found that?

Oh, well that's always nice, when you can stay friends. Sometimes it's best that way, you know? But ooooh, tell me more about this someone else! No names or anything but I dunno, what do you like about her, what's she like? :)

xoxo

[Ian Fleming]

I guess it can be more fun this way. Do you like figuring out mysteries?

Yes, I’m a Gryffindor. I guess thestrals sound creepy, but I don’t think they’re that bad. Most people are probably wary of them because they’re uncomfortable with the idea of death.

Do you need to get to know him better before you know how you really feel about him?

I like getting to know people. So far, I haven’t really regretted telling people my secrets, but the people I’ve told my secrets to haven’t tried to hurt me with them.

Yeah. I still care about my ex-girlfriend, even though we’re not dating anymore. This someone else is fun and flirty, and I think she’s cute. We talk sometimes, and I like a lot of what I’ve learned about her.

[ritaskeeter]

Absolutely. What can I say, I've got a curious streak. What about you?

Yeah, I guess... I dunno, they sound like they just look creepy too, but you'd know more than me. Sorry if that's sounds insensitive or whatever. You know what I mean. I've never seen anyone die. So no thestrals.

Oh, not really, I don't think so, I mean he's kinda a mystery himself, so maybe that's it. He's just not really the kind of guy I normally go for, like I said, and I guess I'm just ner unsure about that?

You're lucky then, you must know some great people.

Aww, that's sweet. All of that! Sounds like you should totally go for it with her! I'm sure she likes you too.

xoxo

[Ian Fleming]

I like figuring out mysteries, but it doesn’t bother me if I don’t.

I guess thestrals do look creepy, but I’m not creeped out by them. You don’t have to worry, I’m not offended.

Hmm. You want to know what you'll be dealing with if you get involved with him.

I think they are.

You’re sure she likes me too?
