Roddy! Roddy, stop! *Hurries after him, attempting to grasp his shoulder* Roddy, stop it.

*Turns sharply just before Neville's fingers can touch at him, standing over the male as he takes his hat off and tosses it with an angry flick of his wrist to the floor. Sets his jaw, only the barest hint of red peppers his chin in a sign he'll need to shave again soon.*
I am tired of this. You're right. I am Not some little house cat for you to keep, Neville.
Why should I be afraid of that..that b***h? She was My wife, not the Dark Lord.
I won't continue to play this game of damsel, especially if it's not even of any sort of use to either of us.
I'm a man.

No one ever said you weren't. *Stammers a little, boyish in his awkwardness at being loomed over by a taller, angry male; old habits die only for a decade or so* L... look, I'm sorry I attacked you like that, it wasn't fair of me to just start spouting a bunch of emotional ranting all at once. We should.. sit down and talk about this. Roddy.. I'm sorry.

We've already discussed it.
If I wanted to sit down and discuss my feelings every time something came up I would be with a woman and I'd have let Bellatrix castrate me long ago.
I'm going out.
*Heads for the door once more, long hair swaying and whipping behind him as he walks*

No, hang on a second. *Scrambles after him, somewhat uncomfortably* Roddy, this is nonsense, let's just have dinner and deal with it tomorrow.

I'm not hungry.
*Wrenches the front door open and stalks down the steps, boots clicking angrily*
Eat without me.

Roddy, I said stop it, damnit. *Shoves outside as well* I'm sorry, I was being a right p***k, can you just stop and talk to me?

So you can say what? I'm sorry and we'll talk it over tomorrow?
Is it really just me keeping me here?? *Pauses yet again to look at Neville*
Isn't it easier to deal with all of this if I'm always in that house? Is this really what this whole thing is about?
What do you want more? Which one?? Do you want me in there where you know for certain I can't harm anyone and no one really has to deal with "us", or do you want to say to hell with everyone and have me walking the streets again?

I know you won't hurt anyone. *Looks frustrated, dragging a hand through his own hair* I'm not worried about that. You know why you're inside all the time - we're both worried about the Death Eaters, and..
Look, I'm sorry I brought it up. I saw London and she looks.. awful, Roddy, she looks like hell. She's not feeding as much and she's scared to leave the castle without being escorted by Angelo Damarius, that vampire she used to date. I keep thinking that this isn't her problem, it's ours..
But this isn't the right way to handle things.

Then what is?? They won't give a damn if we try to talk reasonably with them, Neville.
I.. I'm not defenseless. I can duel better than most of them.
If I'm out and about then their attention will turn from London to me.
I've made up my mind. If they're truly back, then fine.
Fine.

No.
I'm done with this, Neville.
