“ So you’re… still in school, then? ” He asked, honestly surprised that the conversation had lasted this long. Still, that must have been a good sign, right? “ Well, something tells me that might be better than the muggle job I’m forced to work. ” Don’t get him wrong, he enjoyed his job, but Draco Malfoy always needed something to complain about. “ I suppose I can agree with that. There are some things that don’t compare, but for the most part the food is decent. ”

“studying at the local uni. biology with a focus on animal science eventually.” animals had always been nicer than people. “too many are going extinct these days. && maybe there’s more out there, waiting to be found or that once existed.” it didn’t matter with whom she was talking to, animals && creatures had always been a passion of theirs, they could ramble for hours. muggle — it felt like a familiar word yet when trying to define it in their head, luna couldn’t. “— well ... what is it exactly ?? but i do agree. it’s always best to do something rather than nothing. keeps the mind sane && in tact.”

Draco had to admit that, although he was trying to give himself a fresh start, he really didn’t believe that anyone besides Hermione would give him the chance. Of all people, though, he supposed Luna would be most likely to, and clearly that was the case. ‘ That’s how I’ve chosen to see it. ” He spoke, hand absent-mindedly going to the spot where his dark mark once was. His tattoo was covered by his tuxedo sleeve, but still. “ I can think of about a hundred places that would be worse than this, surprisingly enough. ”

well, make that another thing the two apparently agreed on. they wouldn’t have believed they ever would a few years ago. but people evolved, luna would be one of the first to agree with that too. how dull, being the same person throughout one’s entire life. “well, college is certainly better than high school ever was.” luna may still be an o u t s i d e r to most, a friend a RARITY, but it was more common to see people being their true selves && not be questioned for it. “&& the states have way better food, even if we never went hungry back home either.” luna mused, attempting to lighten the air.

Draco frankly couldn’t blame Luna for their reaction, and if this conversation had taken place a couple months ago he might have even found it satisfying. But he had to admit, as terrible as the feeling was, it stung. “ If that’s what you’d prefer, so be it. ” He muttered, content to move on until they asked a question. Letting out a sigh, he shrugged. “ A month, give or take. ”

while luna may not exactly be worried about the all the rumors of this town going around, they did want to understand. always CURIOUS, always wanting to help even if they hardly knew how to. regardless, luna was more likely to embrace one’s theories instead of knocking them down. “well it is a new place ; some would say that calls for a fresh start.” they shrugged, nodding along. “myself as well i think. but seems like there are way worse off places to be.”
while luna couldn’t exactly remember the particulars, the sight of one draco malfoy had them a bit uneasy. if luna were anyone else, perhaps they’d be worried about such a lapse, but she wasn’t. things always sorted themselves in the end. “well perhaps you should continue to not have such a realization. might be EASIER for everyone.” she paused however, gaze not wandering away. he seemed different, && she was CURIOUS. “how long have you been here ??”

Of all of the people from his Hogwarts days, he supposed that it would make sense for Looney Lovegood to be in the middle of a strange situation. Still, he figured that his first time seeing her would be out in public, not in the middle of a gala. “ I didn’t realize you were in town. ” He spoke civilly. He was trying to better himself, after all.
