Lil/Ade - #6

Adrian had spent quite some time mulling over the job decisions that he had laid before him. Both of them would work for him, yet he didn't know if he would be making the right choice or not. He talked to several people about it and they told him to choose what was best for him. Ultimately, he made his choice, though other things played a factor in his decision. So, he figured that the best thing to do would be to tell Lilith what his decision was.

I just realised that the League would probably continue to treat me like shite and I've always been one for a new experience. )

Pansy/Adrian #2

While Draco and Tracey began sniping at each other like spoiled children, Seamus actually was quite polite. It was a pleasant surprise. )

Journal Entry #004

So, I did decide to challenge what happened and let's just say that the end result wasn't all that great. They are more than willing to take me back, but they have this whole list of stipulations that they want me to comply to.

Some of them are as such:
-Having to start out on Reserve
-Waiving any right to become Captain of any given team
-Waiving any right to join the National Squad
-Taking anger management classes (or something of the sort; I can't remember the name. But then again, I find it rather ironic)

They gave me 72 hours to inform them of what my decision is and frankly I'm rather torn. I mean, I want to rejoin the team, but basically what they are asking of me is to restart my career over again. I just don't know if it'd be worth it or not.

Private to Tracey
I talked to Lilith and she informed me of what happened during your seventh year. So, now, I want to hear your side of the story. That and also, I want to know why I was never informed of this until now.

Journal Entry #003

Didn't tell anybody yesterday, because I was too busy. But I got kicked off both teams. They say it's due to my violent temper and other things (although they wouldn't tell me what they were though). They're lying though if you were wondering. Also, they've made it so that I can't get recruited again.

It's just another typical day in the life of Adrian Pucey.

Ade/Lil #4

Today hadn't been the best day for Adrian in quite some time. As a matter of fact, it was probably one of the worst days he had been through in quite some time. He had been subjected to a meeting with his manager which ended up to be nothing more than a screaming match, that led to the disciplinary hearing where he was informed that he was relieved of his positions. But he did get the contact information for Danny and his mother. So, before he left to meet up with them, he sent an owl off to Oliver explaining the situation; also, he sent one to Lilith explaining that he was going to be late tonight and that he would explain the rationale behind it when the two of them met up.

After the owls were sent, Adrian headed off and went to the diner in question. It was late in the evening and he talked to the kid's mother for quite some time, arranging a meeting on Sunday for him to actually meet up with his son. This helped to cheer Adrian up somewhat, but not that much at all. He needed to talk to Lilith, well, he was already planning on it, but given recent events he wanted to talk to her even more. Also, given the late hour, he figured that he would need to find a place to stay. He couldn't go back to his old flat since he would be the recipient of bad press; so, finding a new flat would be a priority for him.

Anyways, Adrian headed off to Hogwarts after that final meeting to talk to Lilith. Surprisingly, there weren't that many students following him. Like none. That's odd, Adrian thought to himself; since there were always students following him around. He went up to the room where he had always headed up to the room in question. He had come up often enough so he didn't bother to knock this time around. Instead, he just entered the office and made sure to close the door behind him; after that, he went up to where Lilith's flat and just said two simple words. "Missed me?" All he had to do now was wait for her response.

You could stay here for tonight. )

Adrian/Theodore

If one was to ask, things were going well for Adrian. Sure, he was bumped down to Reserve on the National Squad, yet really that didn't bother him all that much. Probably because he was seeing Lilith. And even though he had only known her for a couple of weeks, the impact she had made on his life was significant and rather profound as well. So, he was in a happier mood. That and the fact that he had just visited her could've provided another reason for it. Actually, it was the first time he hadn't noticed or cared about the students following him. But that all would change soon enough.

May. 13th, 2008

Ade/Lil - #3

If one didn't know any better, the students at Hogwarts would wonder why Adrian Pucey had come to visit their school quite frequently. Yet, through gossip and word of mouth, rumours had begun to surface. Ones that Adrian himself had overheard on his way up to his usual destination; that he was seeing their Divination professor. Although the rumours did intensify from simple ones to snogging in the broom closet, to more intense one to the fact that the two of them spent the last Hogsmeade together doing rather intimate things. Adrian himself had to raise an eyebrow as to that.

So, Adrian and the students who still insisted on following him (even though he thought that they would've stopped by now -- obviously he was wrong) up to Lilith's office. Even though the two of them were seeing each other, he still insisted on formalities and knocked on the door.

May. 7th, 2008

Journal Entry #002

Met with some of the people on the National Squad earlier today and they told me that I was being moved down to Reserve as of tomorrow. They really wouldn't tell me the reason why, but I assume it has to do with all the negative publicity I've been getting as of recently. So, yeah, Bell and Oliver, thought you should know before you heard it from the Captain or someone else.

Adrian/Seamus

It had been awhile since the article in the Prophet had ran and Adrian had his conversation with Lavender. He still didn't know what to think about certain things though. While he did have mixed emotions to having a kid, part of him was still in shock about the whole scenario -- he really wished that he had found out some other way. Also, was it that common to get over somebody and already fancy someone else this soon after a relationship ended? Normally he wouldn't have thought that much about that, but then it had been only a little more than a week since Susan and him went their separate ways. But now, he found himself fancying Lilith; he had already been up to Hogwarts twice and he did bring her flowers the last time he visited her. He was now contemplating the fact of asking her out for dinner, yet he hadn't heard from her in several days so hopefully everything was alright.

In order to forget about that, he decided to stop by Ri-Ra and talk to Seamus. He really had no idea of what the conversation would consist of, yet he knew that he needed a drink and just somebody to talk to about this newfound infatuation and see what Seamus thought about the whole scenario.

Lil's missing )

Pansy/Adrian

If somebody had asked Adrian what he did to relieve stress, he could easily give off several answers. Quidditch, drinking, chitchat amongst friends, and cooking. Yes cooking. It was something he found himself particularly stressed and it helped to alleviate all the tension that was on his mind. That and when he usually had company over. Such was the occasion tonight, since he was having Pansy over for dinner. Usually, the most tedious task was picking out the recipe; this time it was leg of lamb that was wrapped in leeks.

So, the table was set (by himself; he didn't have a House Elf...well, he choose not to have one) according to his own specifications. Before she arrived, he prepared two glasses of red wine and placed them at their appropriate spots on the table settings. For some odd reason, he decided to prepare two glasses of water and place them next to the wine -- just in case. Now, all he needed to do was wait for her.

May. 4th, 2008

Adrian/Daphne

If somebody was to ask Adrian how his life was going, well the answer wouldn't be positive. Actually, there wouldn't be one specific emotion to describe how he felt. After the article that ran in the Prophet last week, the fact that Susan left him, and that there was a very strong possibly that he might get bumped down to reserve on the National team he didn't know what to think. Happy? Because he had a kid and now knew about him. Mad? That he didn't have any form of contact with him until now. Disappointed? That he had to deal with all this shite. He guessed if he had to sum it down to just a single word, he was confused. He didn't know how to deal with all the emotions and everything. It seemed like the world had a bit of a personal vendetta against him right now.

So, he decided to meet Daphne at a cosy little café for coffee. He had been trying to drink tea, as per Lilith's suggestion to alleviate the stress, yet he hadn't heard from her in several days so just the thought of him having tea made him think about her and got him worried about her as well as slightly stressed. So, he stayed true to the coffee for now. All he had to do was wait for Daphne to arrive and then the two of them would carry out their conversation. Hopefully it would be one that would get these thoughts off his mind.

Ade/Tracey #3

It had been awhile since his conversation with Seamus and Adrian assumed that he knew the reason why Tracey was acting the way that she was. It was the fact that the two of them broke things off. He was fairly certain of it. Yet, he didn't know the array of emotions Tracey went through when she left him, so he had no idea if this was the way she reacted every time after things ended negatively for her. But still, he figured that a conversation was in order. That and given the scandal he was involved in, thanks too the Prophet -- the fact that he had a child and was being accused of being a rather neglectful father -- well, he just needed to get himself inebriated. It didn't really matter where. Everyone seemed to hate him anyways for what had happened; he didn't even bother opening most of the owls sent to him because he knew what the content consisted of. So, he would just be killing two birds with one stone

So, he headed off to her usual spot -- La Luna. The patrons there were staring at him and he knew the rationale behind it. This was probably one of the times that he wished that they were looking at him because to his status and not because of that horrid article she printed. Yet, he tried his best to ignore their stares and looked to see if whom he was looking for was there. And sure enough she was. Hopefully this conversation wouldn't end up like their last one and hopefully she would listen to what he had to say. Because, he just needed someone to be there for him -- a friend, he hoped -- in the midst of this dilemma.

Do you think it's a hindrance? )

Apr. 29th, 2008

Ade/Hannah #2

Given recent events in Adrian's life -- what with Susan leaving him and the article that was written in the Prophet -- to say that he was unhappy would be a drastic understatement. He was miserable and infuriated, just a plethora of emotions he didn't know how to describe or how to deal with. And as wrong as it was, he had turned to drinking in order to alleviate of him of his plight. It did keep him distracted for a short period of time, but still he needed someone to talk to and that's where Hannah came in. Oddly enough, even though he and Susan ended things, he still remained friends with her when he came to the Leaky Cauldron. He just had to hope she was there when he came in this time.

Apr. 28th, 2008

Adrian/Lavender

Most of the time, Adrian didn't have enough time to read the Prophet, given his extremely busy schedule. But the article on the front page seemed to pique his interest, part of him wanted to know who this soulless bastard was so that he could talk to him. Yet, he found out soon enough that said person was himself. He read through the article several times, trying to process the point that the article was trying to make, but there were two things wrong with it. One -- he never knew that he did have a child and if he did, he would be certain to be engaged in its life. Two -- he would never write something like that; it didn't seem right and some sort of confrontation was in order.

He managed to find out this 'L. Brown' was Lavender Brown and where she lived (don't ask him why, but he had his ways). And while part of him was just ready to barge in, the other part decided to be a little more noble about it. So, he knocked. That was the only time he was going to be nice to Miss Lavender Brown.

Apr. 27th, 2008

Ade/Lil - #2

Adrian walked up the steps of Hogwarts -- yet again -- for what was the second time this week. Only, this time he wasn't invited for the painting of a portrait or to be a guest speaker or anything, but he wanted to thank Lil for the portrait that she did of him. Plus, things with him and Susan ended just a couple of days ago back, so he needed someone to talk to.

He did come bearing gifts. A small bouquet of yellow tulips for some reason (why did he get her flowers anyways? He couldn't remember). Yet, the small horde of students from last time continued to follow him -- although it had increased in size in the past couple of days -- and they were getting slightly more assertive in their methods of pursuing him.

Fortunately, he still knew the way to Lil's office, and given all the students that were following him, he could safely assume that she was there. Hopefully, the students would just scatter and go back to their common rooms, but he knew that wouldn't happen. So, inhaling a deep breath, he lifted up his fist and rapped on the door. After what felt like an eternity -- which was only a minute or two -- passed with no response, Adrian knocked on the door again, stating to be doubtful.

Mandy/Adrian (Backstory - October 2001)

Adrian stopped by the apocathary at Diagon for the who-knows-what time this week. To be perfectly honest, he was fine and didn't need any potions, but he just enjoyed seeing her. Odd, wasn't it? But then again, the attraction had been there for awhile, they just never acted upon it until now.

Apr. 17th, 2008

Tracey/Adrian #2

Ever since he inquired of her as to what she wanted to do for her birthday, Adrian Pucey had learnt something about Tracey that he never knew about beforehand. That she was extremely stubborn and refused to give up when it came to certain topics; he knew that he would never participate in broom free-falling, but that probably wouldn't stop her from trying to convince him to do it with little to no avail.

There was something else that remained prominent on his mind as a result of the journal post. That simple "oh" when he told her that he was planning on meeting up with Seamus later today. He didn't know the reason why she had responded that way and wasn't going to inquire why she reacted that way as well. He also wondered why she had jumped to conclusions about the whole scenario in the first place. Did she really think that he wasn't seeing Susan anymore? As a mater of fact, he was certain that as of right now that he didn't want to see somebody else other than her.

So, here he was waiting for Tracey to arrive at La Plumage for their lunch date. Oddly enough, it felt uncomfortable to address the whole situation as a date, because he knew that it wasn't going to go about in that way. Plus, he was interested in Susan and the two of them were just friends. Nothing bad could come as a result of this. Nothing. At. All.

He looked down at his watch, noticing that it was 3:07; he told her to meet up with her at 2:00, yet he knew that she was going to be late -- he just didn't figure that she would be this late. He was glad that he actually took the time to make another reservation, just in case. He should've known that she wouldn't make the 2:30 reservation, so hopefully she would make the one he had for 3:15. If not, he didn't know what to do.
I'll have to find something to do tonight. )

Apr. 16th, 2008

Hannah/Adrian

Adrian stepped into the Leaky Cauldron, something that he usually didn't do all too often, but given everything that just happened, he really didn't mind being seen in public. Besides, he was sure that the pub was relatively empty and he was positive that nobody would notice him there. If they did, then they did and surprisingly that didn't bother him all that much.

He approached the counter of the pub and ordered himself a pint. Maybe make small talk with whomever was tending the pub. Just let everything unfold and hopefully everything would be alright.

Journal Entry #001

Tracey, I know that we always do something for your birthday. But as of right now, nothing has come to mind, so I'm open to whatever you have in mind.
