Number four, Privet Drive. There was nothing good about this place: Dursleys, prejudices, dark cupboards, and normalcy.

But as Harry stood behind that tree and watched his Uncle Vernon mow the lawn while Aunt Petunia was no doubt inside with what she considered her distaff chores, it occurred to him that maybe normalcy was underrated.

Maybe Harry wanted a lawn to mow and a house and a family and conjugal bliss. This fighting evil thing, though exciting and undeniably rewarding, was starting to get old after fifteen years. And maybe he'd never be able to have consanguine children on account of his sexual preferences, but a family really wasn't too much to ask for, was it?

He thought of Draco, scion of one of the last great wizarding bloodlines and unbreakable in his sense of filial duty. Would he really turn against his progenitors for Harry?

Sometimes Harry thought Draco would sooner commit fratricide than marry a muggleborn, much less another man with whom he'd never be able to produce an heir. Purebloods were all about endogamy, after all.

But other times in the quiet moments of pre-dawn, Draco would look at and touch and smile at Harry in a way that made him think, forever.

Harry shook the thoughts from his head and stepped out from behind the tree. He had come to see what family he had for the first time since he was a child and see them he would.

On a completely different and somewhat TMI note, that boy and I had this long discussion about female masturbation yesterday. or rather, how often it actually happens. He thinks the average is once every 2 or 3 weeks and I think it's a bit more than that.. So, a poll?

If you'd rather vote by commenting anonymously, feel free to do so. I shall turn IP logging off. also, please do not vote if you're a boy. :P

[Poll #999024]

Comments

TMI? Yeah, that's my specialty.

[cindelius.livejournal.com]

My answer doesn't fit into your poll, so I'll just put it here. It really depends on how much work/stress I have going on in my life. When in university and under lots of stress to do several things at once (jobs, papers due, tests all in the same month), I wait for about 2 weeks (because I literally don't have time to do it) until I need a real release and then will have a session of two. I've had non-stressful summers in which the answer was "every day, at least once, for multiple weeks."

Re: TMI? Yeah, that's my specialty.

[tracy.livejournal.com]

Being in university and all, I definitely know what you mean! I've never consciously correlated how often I do it with my workload/stress, but I definitely have dry spells during times when I just constantly feel tired, whether it's from workload or something else.

[tracy.livejournal.com]

I guess that can be a blessing in ways, one less thing to have to worry about. :)

btw I ♥ your icon. XD

[tracy.livejournal.com]

hmm. I had no relationship experience before December/January and it didn't stop me from fantasising about things. XD

[tracy.livejournal.com]

Hahahhaha! *beams* <3333

[themadfish.livejournal.com]

Er...I put at least once a week cause that's about what it might be? It's more like I'll masturbate every 2-3 weeks, but during that one week, it'll be nearly every day. Then during the 'off weeks' it'd probably be once a week, if even. Off weeks depends on how bored I am. If I'm bored, I'll masturbate.

[tracy.livejournal.com]

Yeah, that's pretty much me to a tee as well. Off weeks happen a lot when I have too much stuff to do and I'm constantly tired, but then I get a break and it'll be pretty much every day.

[themadfish.livejournal.com]

Cool~ XD

People need to post dirty polls more often. I'm always curious if my experiences are about the same as other girls, but I have no one to talk about it with cept liiivejournal.

[ruggerklk14.livejournal.com]

You're taking GREs already? I haven't even thought about them yet, should I have? OMG now you have me all worried :/

On a different note, I am amused by your drabbles very much and perhaps will use them to help me study for the GREs I didn't know I was supposed to be studying for (omg!!!). hehe

Also, I come home so very very soon and shall mail you your present!!

[tracy.livejournal.com]

I'm tentatively planning on taking them in September. maybe August if I feel like I'm ready then and want to get it out of the way before school starts, or maybe October if I slack on the studying. :P

But, uh, yeah, you should probably start looking into it when you get back from France, though plenty of people just study for a month or so and do fine. I'm just analish because my GPA isn't necessarily so great.

MY SLOTH SIGN! ♥ wheeeeeeeeeeeee, I am excited. :D :D :D

[ruggerklk14.livejournal.com]

Um...well good luck with it then. I'm sure you'll do fine.

Crap. One more thing to add to the endless list of things to do when I get back from France. How do you even find out where/how/when to take them? I am so in the dark. All I know is what my friend told me (who is now in grad school) that half the words they have you learn don't end up being on the test anyways.

I am excited for you to receive it. ♥ ♥ :D

PS We did not see Pirates as we went to the district where Moulon (or however it's spelt) Rouge is and the sex shop district (you would have loved it). hehe I think it was a good choice. I shall see the movie when I return to the States.

[tracy.livejournal.com]

Hahha, thanks.

I bought the Kaplan GRE guide book (that's not the actual title, but if you go to the bookstore it should be in the test prep section) and that will give you a rough timeline. I heard first from friends/professors, though. Of course most of the words you learn won't be on it because there's just too many, but I'd do miserably if I didn't study. :|

Wheeeeeee! when do you get back? !!

SEX SHOP DISTRICT. hahahha did I tell you, I ordered those stress relief boobs for the boy and they got here. very squishy if somewhat unpleasant in the smell department.

fdlks;ajklsl;kaf I AM STILL WAITING FOR YOU TO SEE PIRATES.

[ruggerklk14.livejournal.com]

I shall have to browse the bookshop then for that book. or one like it.

I get back today, like um at 4 pm your time (IN doesn't do daylight savings, right?) well any case, 5pm MI time and 11 pm France time (9hour flight, 6 hour time difference).

It was great fun. NOO. haha that's awesome!! did he like them?

ajkgrn'q\ I am STILL waiting for ME to see IT!!

[tracy.livejournal.com]

I have heard that's the best one, but who knows?

TODAY? I suppose by today you mean tomorrow, since it's 9:22 pm at the moment. :P

Well, I mean, I haven't given it to him yet, but I'm going to go visit in 9 days! *bounce*

Hahha that should be the first thing you do when you get back! XD

[ruggerklk14.livejournal.com]

I certainly don't :P

Well it's already into today in France, but I suppose if it will make you happy, tomorrow for you then and all of you in the States.

Yay! Will you wear his scent to meet him? I think you should, he might think you smell really good. :P

That and eat at a really good Mexican restaurant. Yummy!

[tracy.livejournal.com]

It does indeed make me happy. :)

*LAUGHS* OMG should I? I'd have to go to the mall like, right before getting to the airport and I don't know if I'll have time. plus I don't know where the malls in Chicago are. :|

Ooooh. yum!

[ruggerklk14.livejournal.com]

I'm glad I could be of service.

well if you still have time, I'd do it.

I'm craving, they don't have mexican over here, spanish, but it's not the same at all.

[tracy.livejournal.com]

Hmm. But if I smell like him too, won't it lessen my :D :D :D at smelling him? The cards still smell if I hold them up to my nose, but it doesn't really reach me when I'm sleeping so I miss it enough to be :D :D :D about it when I see him.

I had mexican yesterday. *smirk*

[ruggerklk14.livejournal.com]

Perhaps, I thought you still had enough stock smell of him in your room to be set. I guessed wrong I suppose.

I. am. so. jealous.

[tracy.livejournal.com]

His smell is pretty much gone from my room, all I have is the cards. :(

mwehehehheeee. You'll get your Mexican tomorrow (or later today), my dear.

[ruggerklk14.livejournal.com]

That is sad. I thought of buying you a bottle of his scent whilst I was here in Paris at this fancy perfume shop that we went to, but alas, I remembered our discussion about it in the mall.

I can hardly wait. Seriously.

[tracy.livejournal.com]

Hahha it's okay, I get to see him in 9 days! wheeeee. *_*

I AM MORE EAGER FOR YOU TO SEE POTC. but that's just me. :)

[ruggerklk14.livejournal.com]

Which is very exciting for you. Give the boobs a squeeze for me and his harry nipple a pinch.

Well. I'm pretty sure I'm more excited to see POC. We went into the Disney store here in Paris and looked at all the POC toys for sale. I came very close to buying a beach towel to cuddle with tonight, but decided I couldn't fit it in the suitcase.

[tracy.livejournal.com]

Hehhe okay. :D :D harry nipples. *_*

omg I want a PotC beach towel. then I could LIE ON TOP OF JOHNNY DEPP. *cough* Maybe they have them in Disney stores here too.

[ruggerklk14.livejournal.com]

:D:D:D:DD

Well, if they don't I'm sure you could buy one online. There's a Johnny Depp one and a POC skull one.

[tracy.livejournal.com]

Oooh, perhaps I shall look into it.

And I KNOW you are home now, HAVE YOU SEEN IT YET?

[ruggerklk14.livejournal.com]

You should

I saw it on Sunday and I thought it was a great movie and they could do a spin off about Elizabeth, the kid, and Will, but it may lack some meat, maybe a small one?

PS are you, like, stalking me? :P To KNOW I am back...I feel so loved.

[tracy.livejournal.com]

I want to see the adventures of Jack and his miniature Black Pearl!

YES I AM STALKING YOU. bwahahahhahhahahaaaa.

[ruggerklk14.livejournal.com]

YES!!! and his peanut!

I totally got a squishy loved feeling when you said you were stalking me, seriously. Does that make me strange?

[tracy.livejournal.com]

hehehheheee peanut. *_*

Only if I were really creepy. :P

[ruggerklk14.livejournal.com]

Seriously loved how "My peanut" kept coming up randomly.

Well, then.... :D

[nico1908.livejournal.com]

I chose "at least once a week" because it's closer to the correct answer than "at least once a day", but reality is "every other day (on average)". LOL.

[tracy.livejournal.com]

Me too, actually, I sort of meant "at least once" to vary between 1 and 3 or so. :)

[nico1908.livejournal.com]

Not everybody does it every day, though. LOL
