I think you made a good choice, in any case. I'm of the mind to ask if you'd mind terribly my encroaching on the floor, though I'd probably steer clear of any idiots about.
[ It's easily parsed as a joke like that, ha ha, but she really means it, because seriously, she needs a break. PS answer honestly, not just humoring her because she's her. ]
[ Silent almost-panic. Severus is suddenly glad he decided not to use the voice option mid-convo, as they often will. It's not that he wouldn't want to be around her more (despite all his noble intentions when she first arrived, he's caved entirely), that he wouldn't want her away from the Marauders and their braindead fan club, but it feels like--
The closer they become the more it'll hurt when it falls apart. ]
Of course I wouldn't mind. You might get sick of Draco skulking about pretending I don't know he's there, though.
[ It's a lot for Lily to have even asked; she's glad for what mending they've done and being on good terms with Severus means a lot to her but she doesn't want to press him, or for him to do things or accept things out of obligation.
It twists like a knife thinking about the past, usually, and the future is so nebulous that it scares her more than anything else. All the same— ]
I'm quite sure I can handle Draco and any skulking he may do.
Do you think I could get away with not telling anyone that I'm moving?
He seems to have missed out on his father's finesse, yes.

... And that's probably the most he should say about the man (the Death Eater) who replaced Lily as his best friend after she kicked him to the curb. But Lucius was kind to him, for all the vileness. ]

You should probably tell Claire.
