“That’s good, that’s good.” He said, not bothering to look around and make sure they were alone. “I’ve missed you too. It is honestly not human to keep us apart for so long.”

Confident they wouldn’t be disturbed among the restricted section stacks, Althea closed the space between them to hug him. “I wish it was easier than this, but I don’t see anything changing with my family.”

alastorisms:

“So you say.” She was one person, no matter how much she would try to be a good representation of her whole family. People were more than their name. “I don’t. It was a suggestion. Take it or leave it.”

“I don’t need your advice.” He didn’t seem to be like the older boys she was usually around. The realization made her more comfortable. She was still wary, afraid that she would say too much and have consequences. It was a tentative step onto the perceived tightrope she was accustomed to in her world.

alastorisms:

“Learn to speak up, kid.” He wasn’t sure if what he felt was disappointment, but he did wish she wouldn’t have backed down. He observed her timid actions, but couldn’t settle on what he thought of her yet. Alastor knew he could be a dick, but that side of him was usually reserved for the people he disliked. She was in Slytherin, but her weak demeanor wasn’t something he’d prey on. “People will take advantage of you if you don’t.”

“I’m a Zabini. We don’t get taken advantage of.” Althea may not speak up for herself, but she would for her family. Any judgement of her character was a direct reflection on them. She didn’t want to argue with him. There was no reason for it. She just didn’t understand his reaction. “Why do you care anyways?”

alastorisms:

Alastor stared at her, noting the sudden submissive behavior. It was different from the girl who told that third year she wouldn’t explain herself only minutes before. “Do you have something to say?” He prompted her to speak up, even though he had the tendency to shut people down.

“No. I have nothing to say.” Her books were held tightly to her chest and she wrapped her arms tighter around herself still. It was an instinct to make herself small and therefor nonthreatening. She’d heard that question plenty of times from her father when she was out of line. It didn’t have the same bite when Alastor said it, but that didn’t mean it meant anything different.

“Harassing? No, I was just- I thought… ah forget it, it’s not important.” Devlin replied with a small sigh. “Hum, so, how have you been?”

“I’ve been fine,” Althea answered automatically. A cursory glance around let her know they appeared to be alone. She clutched the restricted potions book to her chest and looked up at Devlin. “I’ve missed you.”

Did she just hiss at you? (The Lovers, 2017)

She’s here all the time.

devlinborgin:

“But I’m a prefect, and you’re not supposed to be here. You do have to explain yourself.”

“I wouldn’t be able to enter the restricted section without a note. I gave it to the librarian. It’s her job to manage the library, not yours. All you’re doing is harassing me.”

[altheazabini]

alastorisms:

“No use dwelling about it now, is there?” It was all said and done so he really would like to put it behind them. He preferred to carry on instead of overthinking, when he could help it.

“None at all,” Althea said softly, lowering her gaze. She wasn’t going to back talk. It wasn’t very becoming, nor allowed in her family. There was some lax in the rules with her since she was the only daughter, and the youngest, but that would never fully excuse her. She was always expected to be a respectful representation of her family. It didn’t matter the company.

“Calm down, beautiful. I was just asking what you were up to. No third degree.”

“And I declined to answer. Isn’t this the part where you drop it? That would be the polite thing to do.”
