Nott Cottage

He looked up at her. "But I'm nineteen. I'm too old to be at Hogwarts."

She thought for a moment and then it hit her "I think I might have somewhere else.. would you like to see it?"

He nodded. "Yes please."

ooc To the Red Marble Bar! ^-^ I can post there first if you want.

IC She held onto him tightly "lets get out of here" and with that she disapparated them.

Okays.

He appeared in front of the now empty house.

"Impressive house.."

He shrugged. "It's not as big as their mansion. I've only been there once though."

He lead Crouch inside the cottage and searched around for something.

In truth, I had never visited a Nott residence before. I can't deny that have very grandiose taste.

He found a muggle cell phone in a drawer in the kitchen. He punts the number one and held it to his ear.

"Hello? Mom? There's someone here to see you. He calls himself Crouch. He really wants to see you and Dad."

He paused while he listened to his mother's response. His eyebrows knit together as she requested something odd of him. "She wants to know if you've got a tattoo of a snake and a skull on your left forearm," he told Crouch.

What the hell is that device that he has? A MUGGLE tool?! Libelous I say, slander!

But at the mention of the dark mark my eyes go alite, "Yes..." I show it to him and then speak into it as though praying to it.

"Yes, he's got one." He listened to another response and then hung up. "They're coming."

"Most excellent..."

There were two sharp cracks. A man and a woman, both having a proud air about them, appeared before the two young men.

Mrs. Nott smiled a tight-lipped smile at Crouch, not even acknowledging her son. "Hello, Crouch was it?"

Mr. Nott gave a simple nod towards Kevin.

Kevin looked down at his feet and shuffled from foot to foot.

I give the pair an insane grin and bow, "In the flesh. And you must be the Notts!"

Theodore Nott nodded. "That we are. I hear that you wish to speak to us? What sort of business do you wish to discuss?"

Mrs. Nott stood by and eyed her son who seemed to be having a whispered conversation with no one.

Joshua was glaring at Kevin's parents. "Dude, what the hell? You swore to never go back here. Three times! Why the fuck, pray tell, are we here?"

Kevin didn't look up instead he just whispered a response to Joshua. "He needs my parents. I'm just trying to help. As soon as they're gone we'll leave. I promise Joshua."

"To be honest, I have a proposition for you."

"I'm listening," Mr. Nott replied smoothly.

"Kevin!" Mrs. Nott barked. "Stop talking to your imaginary friends. They're not real."

Kevin jumped at his mother's sharp tone. "Yes mom."

"Not real my ass! Why don't you say that to my face you limp noodle!"

I grin crazily at them, "As you know, I specialize in training up-and-coming Death Eaters. If you would so like, I could make your son one..."

Theodore and his wife shared a look and then he lowered his voice. "Kevin isn't exactly in a sound mental state right now. He's schizophrenic, as the muggles call it. He sees people and things that aren't there, has conversations with them."

Mrs. Nott spoke up, "Now, we're not saying that Kevin shouldn't be a Death Eater, by all means we want our son to live properly. But we're giving you a warning. If you were to train him you'd have to get rid of his...visions."

Kevin acted as if he couldn't hear them. Get rid of my "visions"? What do they mean Joshua?

Joshua shook his head in anger. "They wanna get rid of Seventeen and I."

But why!? You're nice! Why can't they get rid of Harp or Temp?

"They wanna make you mean. They think you're a softy, a pushover."

I burst out laughing insanely, "Are you kidding? That's what makes him fun!"

"If you're willing to work with that, then by all means go ahead," said Mr. Nott, gesturing towards Kevin.

Kevin ignored them in favour for his mental conversation with Joshua.

"Oh don't worry, crazy people and I... we connect, let's put it that way.." I smirk at them.

"Good. To what extent do you plan on training him? Full time? Part time? Whenever you get around to it?"

"I can begin whenever you're ready for him to enter the Dark Lord' glorious service."
