Hogwarts: Staircase, early evening

If anyone's walking around the castle in the early evening, they might come across Rhys, sitting in a lovely squishy armchair on a staircase landing and sipping a cup of tea. There's an empty portrait frame next to him- if you're fast, you might notice a flurry of movement across the other paintings nearby. The girl in the picture's shy, you see.

And you've interrupted their chat. How rude.

"I'm not even sure if that would help. Sometimes it seems like I can almost describe what I need to but then I think about it and I don't,"

Even though he's not failed any classes, Will still doesn't consider himself a strong student. He knows how to do things but he feels far more confident when he's doing than writing. Its one reason that while he enjoys Hogwarts, he's not always sure he belongs.

"I'm trying an outline. They don't always work for me but as there are different parts of the spell, it seems like that might make more sense,"

He's constantly trying various things because some things works better than others depending on the topic.

"I will. I want to do well on this one because Transfiguration does make sense to me,"

Will likes Professor Owens, he seems to know so much and understand how complex the spaces between the Muggle and Wizarding worlds can be to live in.

"I've never been that good with Charms. Things seem like they should work but the result isn't what its supposed to be."

"Yes, but Defence Against the Dark Arts is close because I know I can use it. I just like seeing how things can change with Transfiguration."

"I like to be prepared as do a lot of others,"

Things are tricky in Nottingham and Will wants every weapon available to him.

"How do you know where that line is?"

"I think I have some people I trust to do that,"

They're all on the alert but some more than others.
will_scarlett: (I see you)

[personal profile] will_scarlett 2011-10-06 03:17 am (UTC)(link)
"There's just some troubles at home, so I want to be prepared,"

And here as well but its not his place to talk about DA or Order business.
will_scarlett: (always true)

"So do I, but I think it will in time."
will_scarlett: (not all he seems)

"So you have to be prepared for anything that might happen and know how to think on your feet."

"Which I try not to be too often if I can help it though it doesn't always work,"

He knows he has a bad temper that's got him into some fights he shouldn't have gone into.
